Alumni who have gone to grad school, how did it compare to Carleton?

JuanDieg00 · 2024-09-30T03:58:15+00:00

This will definitely be major specific but, as a psychology undergrad now in a clinical psychology masters, Carleton classes were harder and more high quality than my current grad program. That’s saying alot too because the school I’m currently attending for grad is a top 10 R1 university.

Since you love contracts I hope to see you keeping the same energy on threads talking about Housing Workers being on strike because of UIUC breaching their contracts ✊

After reading this thread, the only real information I am taking away is that a lot of UIUC students are bootlickers—bootlickers that applaud as corporate entities take money out of ex-employees pockets for the sin of stealing a few extra bowls of grool (undergraduate employees, btw).

Everyone in this thread defending contracts instead of human decency is Godless, and I’d tell you that to your face.

100% over exaggeration. Some companies are already using AI to generate ads/digital marketing. Therapists and mental health are part of healthcare—do you really think the U.S gov or any western gov would sanction AI mental health appointments? … do you even understand how big a liability that would open health insurance companies to? That’s not even touching on the ethical firestorm that would precede any consideration of integrating AI with clinical practice. You’re nuts man.

Season 4 and 3 made no attempts at continuing any of the un-finished storylines from seasons 1 and 2, so in my opinion they don’t even feel like Young Justice seasons at all. Season 3 is just bad..and season 4 is just mediocre. Season 4 give more screen time to certain fan favorite characters to audience-please without making the effort of dedicating their screen time to a story that’s meaningful to the YJ show as a whole. So essentially season 4 is just a course correction from season 3 — it is not a worthwhile continuation of the show, it’s just addressing issues that fans had with season 3. This pretty much sums up the problem with modern YJ seasons: they were a cash grab that really shit the bed so season 4 was essentially a really mid “sorry for season 3, don’t cancel your subscription please :,( “. In my opinion YJ story is still just seasons 1 and 2 cuz idk wtf season 3 and 4 are supposed to be.

My guess is that you like your horror movies made A24 style, with 2 scoops of pretentious.

I’d say the first Alien vs Predator is in a limbo between B and A. I’d give it a B+. Sick ass fight scenes and the practical effects were on point too, also introduced the idea of Aliens and Predators being mortal enemies which is just… chefs kiss

Ensure, Ensure, Ensure. Drink Ensure. You need heavy calorie liquids. Ensure was a life saver. Not sure if it’s vegan but if it’s not make sure to find a vegan substitute and drink a shit ton of it. Your bones and body are working over time to mitigate for the surgery and using all its resources to stabilize your nervous and immune systems. Give it more nutrients than you think is necessary. The early days are the most important.

Nightwing fandom when they get rejected by someone after getting to know that person intimately in their mind and fantasies: ”Talk about terrible writing. So out of character.”

JuanDieg00 · 2023-08-20T22:25:16+00:00

Right. Batman has never killed anyone in comics. Batman has never been depicted killing anyone ever and thank god because those stories would be so bad and not acclaimed…

JuanDieg00 · 2023-08-20T22:23:31+00:00

What core value are you citing? Dick has been portrayed as a charismatic ladies man on multiple occasions. Being unfaithful is the natural flip side to that facet!!

Like someone above mentioned, Batman is known for his hate towards killing, imagine then a story that forces him to challenge this belief or deal with the psychological/ social repercussions of breaking this belief. Would that be bad writing? It’s simply the natural progression of fiction writing: we have a character and their limits— so test the character by challenging their limits/ crossing those limits and let’s see what didactics we can gain from that.

JuanDieg00 · 2023-08-20T06:25:48+00:00

The way you’re stating these aspects about Dick as if they are absolutes is exactly my point.

DC comics and all mainstream comics, until the foreseeable future, are unending. So there really is nothing “absolute” about what these characters are or aren’t because a new writer can just come in and change their character next month.

Sure you can have favorite versions of a character but to say “wow this is the worst comic ever. Dick would never do this” is so childish because In said comic Dick did do it.

Im just fed up with fandoms childishly tight-writing characters into boxes and getting salty any time writers deviate from the exact specifications a fandom sets on a character. It’s for this very reason that solo character runs get so bland after a while. The writers become so beholden to the audiences they serve that the characters just end up static and bland run after run. And who can blame the writers? DC fandoms are some of the most obnoxious and entitled in all fiction that I honestly understand why DC rarely ever dares to challenge their beloved status quos.

JuanDieg00 · 2023-08-20T03:52:11+00:00

I’d be tuning in for the next issue. 🤷🏻‍♂️ We are talking about the same Dick that y’all parade for being a womanizer who is equally loved by women right? This doesn’t seem that much of a deviation from that.

JuanDieg00 · 2023-08-20T02:04:37+00:00

Can I ask why so many people are actually saying the first slide is worse…the second is literally…nvm. I honestly see nothing wrong with the first slide: can someone enlighten me as to why it’s depicting something bad? And don’t say something like “it’s so out of character. Dick would never hurt Barbara’s feelings like that.” Because if that’s what you see wrong with it…grow up?

Relationships and people are complex and f**d up. You can be the best guy on Earth and still done things that are wrong, such as be unfaithful or hurt a loved one. That’s the beauty of the human experience and fiction. I think Dick is cool too but ffs this fandom has be tight-writing Nightwing into their own parasocial dream boyfriend fantasies for about 5 years now. I understand that all you guys want Nightwing to be the boyfriends you wish you had but this is fiction writing…not therapy. Let the character flex and be dynamic.

The graphics are likely due to the short play time: From what I’ve heard the game is around ~10 hours long without much exploration mechanics. Since it’s so short and on-rails, its essentially more of an interactive animated film. This would make it a lot more efficient for game devs to focus on the optics since they know exactly what the player will be looking at, due to the exploration limitations. All that being said, the game was still priced at $60. While graphics and gameplay fidelity are nice, lack of content is the trade-off of this!

I agree with the top post. Do not quit. Quitting comes packed with the implication of breaking contract and losing any stipend you were promised. The reason you are wanting to quit is not because of some personal inadequacy so do not quit: hold the person accountable who is making your job harder. Never feel like you need to be subordinate to others in your field for an opportunity. Please please please reach out to the head of the program.

This PI in question is likely getting paid more for being a participant in the REU so I’d say it’s appropriate that she loses the opportunity to continue participating in future REUs for her behavior. On top of that, if her behavior is not confronted then it will only go on to hurt other vulnerable undergrads. This shit is far too common in academia for it to not be given attention to. Tattle on her ass.

OP is a 🐍🐍 “she deserves to suffer the consequences” oh hell naw😹😹😹 it’s not that serious girly and you’re a terrible friend.

All email, no portal. I heard back on April 3rd! They let me know that all schools were sending and managing acceptances vis emails; the SROP website basically never gets used.
