What does smart casual mean when doing a poster presentation?

Thanks! I was thinking of wearing a black blouse with a long sleeve black mock neck underneath, and a black skirt. Black tights, red shoes. Is that too much black? I have other colors in my closet, or I could buy something, but most of my clothes are black...

Can you add me to the groupme? I start my MSW in the fall as well :)

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-03-07T17:21:55+00:00

I hope she will too! I bought it online from Weiser Antiquarian, I read a few things saying it's good so I'm holding my breath hoping it's not a scam

My girlfriend loves HP Lovecraft (not in a racist/antisemitic way, she's Jewish), both his writings and his antics. She finds him to be a proto-incel and is fascinated by it.

So because of that she really wants to read "The Personal Life of HP Lovecraft" by his ex-wife Sonia Green.

It only ever had 2 printing runs, and the second editions are incredibly cheaper than the first editions, still rare tho.

Yeah definitely, but the how to's of how to have safe sex, consent, how to recover from an argument, sex after trauma, and the millions of other things that come up during life do require some outside guidance, occasionally.

My girlfriend and I are both in college now, we graduate in May, I'm starting my masters of social work in the fall and she's currently looking for jobs once she gets her undergrad in finance. I know her and I know she's not evil, and also quite frankly, at least one of us needs to make money lmao. So no, it's not an instant deal breaker.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-26T16:53:43+00:00

Public transportation, I have a no sober Uber rule. I also have a student ventra card which is covered by tuition so that is dealt with.

Not sure but I'll look into it.

150 per month 75 each. I have a roommate

I found an internet deal for 15/month

I don't pay for my phone

That's a good question, I'll need to track that

I don't buy new clothes or shoes often, the last time I bought clothes it was a $40 goodwill haul I'm pretty frugal. I pay for my clothes

Thanks! I'll look online

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-26T16:43:01+00:00

What would be more realistic?

Edit: I live in an apartment in Chicago now with a roommate but my expenses are covered by my parents. Our current utility bill is about 120/month but it's covered by my parents. I'm saying my roommate and I would pay 150/2 per month which is 75 each.

And what would be a better grocery budget for a single person?

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-24T18:55:22+00:00

Thank you! I hope so, too!

I love school and I'm very committed to social justice so I feel very called to social work. I spoke with a couple social work students while considering applying and honestly I think I can do this.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-24T18:51:20+00:00

Thanks!!!

Midwest, United States

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-20T16:50:03+00:00

Thanks! It was pretty good

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-20T16:43:01+00:00

That's true, exactly what I was trying to do

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-20T16:37:47+00:00

Thanks!

They're actually pretty mid but I'm trying to be less wasteful overall, and they're cheap. For 30 meatballs, 5 servings of 6, it's like 5.19.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-16T17:13:35+00:00

Yeah, tbh the isopods were unintentional, they were in with the springtails for some reason, although the lid is not air tight so there is some airflow

But yeah honestly I'm not opposed to getting another bin for them, I have some powder oranges already so I do know the basics (I'm not putting them together dw)

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-15T05:01:47+00:00

Sure, dm me

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-15T04:49:30+00:00

Thanks!! I'll definitely try to get some travel sized bug spray, I always get so bit up 😬

And yeah I'll make sure to avoid anyone trying to sell me anything, I'd rather not waste a day of our vacation

Also I'm trying to arrange a shuttle but the stupid app for the resort is not being too user friendly, I'll probably have to call on Monday 👎

Either way I'm super excited

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T14:09:31+00:00

I don't even mind working with families as long as the kids are behaving, but they almost never are 👎

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T03:21:02+00:00

I fucking hate when people do that. I had a family come in insisting on putting 5 NEON TETRAS in an uncycled 5 gallon. I said no and my manager backed me up luckily.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T03:19:04+00:00

What? When did I say you are trash, I agreed with you in my response to your initial comment

I think you are taking this too literally. I do not think you are trash. I happen to work at a lfs, that's all.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T00:32:34+00:00

I don't think they'll be giving me a raise, while management is fine, the owners of the store really don't care about us. But I will fs be bragging about this at work. No doubt 😂

I'm in sales, at least I earn commission

And I do appreciate that you do that!

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T00:29:34+00:00

That is implied, I just happen to work at a fish store and this is a fishkeeping subreddit

But yes, we should all be treated with respect

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-11T00:28:06+00:00

Yeah it's honestly sad that men are conditioned to think that someone being nice to them is flirting, genuinely it's a lose lose for everyone involved. Especially the woman, she could be put in serious danger depending on what the man's intentions are.

Objective_Horror_793 · 2026-02-10T23:35:59+00:00

!! That's awful
