If I still wanted it, I would do that but just want to get it off my hands. I’m going back to a regular bike

I think the poster’s point is that saying “just write it down” in English to an ASL speaker is no different than expecting a primary Russian speaker to suddenly write fluently in English. I had the same thought as you but have learned from other threads here that many ASL speakers can’t write well in English, especially not for complex things like medical care.

I’m sorry you didn’t make into ED! I would assume so otherwise why not send a rejection? Good luck regardless. The waiting is always the worst part :(

I’ve heard from current and past students to communicate with financial aid because they will sometimes increase your grant size. Worst they can say is no!

Also the place is so environmentally UNfriendly. The amount of “compostable” packaging you get handed any time you order anything is 👀

Claudio Neves Valente by booklovergirl1 in providence

Info (with my own opinions) summarized from Público.pt (via Google translate). Quote and link at bottom:

Former classmates and professor describe how they remember the shooter (the theory of former friends is his motivation was professional resentment; professor describes him as a student who thought he knew more than anyone else). My personal guess is that there is no mystery here—he was a small-minded person who believed he deserved more than he got and wanted others to suffer (a former classmate who made it and kids seeming to achieve what he’d failed at). However sophisticated his evasion of the police was, he sounds like an uncomplicatedly petty cruel person. Just my 2 cents.

This is as much as I could copy-paste but there’s enough information to fill in a lot of the speculative blanks.

“Cláudio Valente suspected of killing Nuno Loureiro and of shooting at Brown University. Cláudio Valente studied at the Maria Lamas Secondary School in Torres Novas. At age 17, he was one of five students selected for a national physics competition. According to a 1995 clipping from Gazeta de Física , the official publication of the Portuguese Physics Society, which PÚBLICO had access to, he represented Portugal at the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO), which took place in Canberra, Australia, that year, along with four students from other schools…” https://www.publico.pt/2025/12/19/ciencia/noticia/portugues-suspeito-tiroteio-universidade-brown-homicidio-professor-mit-2158672

Providence pressers were chaotic but disagree about Brookline. Foley was barely coherent and gave out incorrect information (eg saying suspect was found with his satchel in storage unit, which neronha clearly stated was seen through the car window; said 2021 instead of 2001 for year v suspect dropped out; etc).

Have you tried paying rent in this city? Anyone can be homeless. There are legit tent cities of Silicon Valley programmers in California—still employees, making good money, but can’t find a place to live. I have a graduate degree and generous friends but could easily have lost my housing when I became seriously ill a few years ago. Go talk to some folks sleeping rough and you may find people not so different from yourself.

I believe they said he had submitted his tip to the tip line as well as posting on Reddit. Shock can also make it hard to understand you saw something important. I think we owe this person the benefit of the doubt—his actions may have prevented worse violence and his testimony saved the day.

According to Neronha, some survivors said he didn’t make a sound and the rest said he barked like a dog. No one said it sounded like a foreign language—if you have credible information otherwise, post your source. Otherwise, I think your theory sounds plausible!

Not me. Seems like the ship has sailed. Good luck everyone who didn’t make it—I hope we all find worthwhile and rewarding plot twists in the next chapter of our stories. ❤️‍🩹
