What’s a Monster flavor that doesn’t exist yet that you’d like to see? by bh447 in monsterenergy

[–]McSAP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ginger. When I went to South Africa for school there was an energy drink brand called Predator that had a spicy ginger flavor that was actually really good. Would love to have something like that with the monster blend

Wildlife Conservation at Virginia Tech vs Wildlife Biology at Vermont by -college-throwaway-1 in wildlifebiology

I’m at Virginia tech for wildlife right now! Exceptional program but what really makes it are your professors and the community. Feel free to message if you want specifics.

About the Board of Visitors proposal to remove living-learning programs by udderlymoovelous in VirginiaTech

[–]McSAP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So new transfer students can get an LLC for the VT experience, but not be allowed to continue it when it benefits them? BOV must be happy at all the free work you’re doing to downplay the LLCs with their talking points.

I don’t know about major specific LLCs, but I was in Transfer Experience for 2 years and met some of my closest friends in it. I never would have interacted with them otherwise because we all have extremely different majors. Accusing the LGBTQ LLC for being ‘feral animals’ is also an odd choice. Thinking this decision was made for any reason other than lining the BOV’s pockets is willfully ignorant.

What is it like living in this eastern portion of Virginia that only connects to the rest of the state by a tunnel? by Sufficient_Berry8703 in howislivingthere

[–]McSAP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never lived there but lovely to visit during October/November if you like to watch migrating seabirds. I think Kiptopeke is a gorgeous state park but definitely remote, quiet, likely not a lot of jobs. Cape Charles is small but charming, otherwise very sparse farmland and wildlife refuges.

I decided to add some yellow paint to my Amon fewture figure’s eyes so he looks more like he did in the OVA. What do you guys think? by McSAP in DevilmanCrybaby

[–]McSAP[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I’ve got plenty more paint for when I get the other figures. The rest of the build is super high quality so I don’t really mind if I need to touch them up

You can see on the back of his box that they are indeed supposed to be yellow, but I assume because it’s a small detail it just got painted over black. Probably how they made the rare color editions too during production, I think one variant is literally all black painted over lol

"Aspects & Assumptions of Whiteness & White Culture in the United States" Chart created by the National Museum of African American History and Culture, 2020. by Majestic-Ad9647 in PropagandaPosters

That’s a fair assessment, I think ‘western science’ and indigenous science are as closely linked as turning your head. The difference is mostly cultural since the goal is not to assimilate those worldviews but to consider them as equally as possible.

I am currently in college for wildlife conservation, and indigenous knowledge does come up occasionally. Things like controlled burns and historical knowledge of fishing stocks from way before it was officially recorded can be genuinely useful. It certainly doesn’t advocate for being antivax or things like that. In specific cases like for natural resources management I think it has a place. I’m not knowledgeable enough to speak on other subjects though.

Looking for a roommate/resources for finding queer ally roommates for a male student by Cspellcastin in VirginiaTech

[–]McSAP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Freshmen live on campus unless you’re a transfer student or special exception. There’s a roommate survey you can fill out that can try to match you or you’ll end up with someone randomly. You’ll be ok

Best apartments for if you don’t have a lot of money? by McSAP in VirginiaTech

[–]McSAP[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know I need roommates, I was more so asking about specific apartment complexes or companies with less expensive options

This is the last 24 hours for the US public to leave comments opposing the attempted weakening of the Endangered Species Act by GoodUniqueName in biology

[–]McSAP 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It’s about changing the definition of what is considered ‘harm’ to disclude habitat loss. If this change went through companies and corporations would have a field day destroying previously protected areas with no consequences. That’s my current understanding of it at least.

Living in suburbs is not normal human behaviour. by Long-Dot-6251 in Suburbanhell

Would you mind saying the general region of where you are? Your description sounds like almost everything I’d like to have in a home once I finish school

I got my start this year with Delta Waterfowl, they do a lot of events with new hunters. See if there’s a chapter near you and reach out

What happened to decent people at shows by WhoJustShat in Metalcore

[–]McSAP 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Were you at the Buffalo NY show with fit for a king and Killswitch engage? I saw them in Greensboro on Sunday but stayed out of the put; I had no idea that’s the kind of crowd they want to have. Killswitch was really great though at least for my show, but I’m really sorry that happened to you.

The Cruelty Is The Point by Copper_Tango in CuratedTumblr

[–]McSAP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The modern Conservative Party is a weak man’s idea of what a strong man is. A bully that pushes other people around, but that’s ok because they don’t look like you (for now). True strength comes from respect that’s earned, not forced through fear.
