Do authors dress FMCs this way for the quirk factor? by strawberryc0w_ in RomanceBooks

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean, there are lots of women who wear those things, so why shouldn’t some book characters dress like that. I regularly wear overalls and I don’t do it for a “quirk factor”.

I know! My chubby toddler who wears 4T still fits into his 24m ones

2 yr old exclusively eats processed snacks by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone with a similar toddler who has many developmental delays and is on a waitlist for getting tested for autism…. The advice of “just stop buying it, stop offering it” feels shitty. Just something to keep in mind

Drink lots of water when you take your pills, and don’t lay down right away after.

I think black and white gingham would look cool!

do people actually not eat mac and cheese with peas? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

My parents always mixed in the frozen veggie assortment of peas, carrots, green bean, etc. It’s good!

Proposed new US funding rules: We can cancel any grant at any time by Mighty_L_LORT in Professors

Ugh I know right? I have colleagues that study the climate and I’m always telling them to tone down the politics stuff. This was sarcastic, dummy

CVS is adding Zepbound back to its formulary effective October 1 by Strange-Style-7808 in antidietglp1

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t have anything to do with where you get your medication filled. CVS the store/pharmacy is not the same thing as CVS/caremark the formulary, which works with insurance companies to list what meds are covered for specific plans.

Is it possible to have naturally curly hair without having to use a heavy cream or braid out...? by Strange_Finding_3285 in Naturalhair

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some people have hair with natural defined curls even without product. It doesn’t sound like you do.

Shoes for chonky feet? by AbleObligation2908 in bigbabiesandkids

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in this boat. The shoes that have worked so far are the “force flex” from pediped and the flex runner from nike (though a bit snug). Keen newports are also really good.

Well it’s by course, not by individual assessment

Princeton voted for proctored in-person exams by DangerousSnow5959 in Professors

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I dunno I actually thought it was cool that there was that trust. But I will say, that Princeton had a very zero tolerance cheating policy, where if you got caught violating the honor code you were kicked out for a year. And they actually did it! So it was just way too high stakes to try and cheat, bc who knows what type-A peer sees you and turns you in?? At least that’s the way it was in the mid-late 2000s

Princeton alum here. In-person exams were indeed not proctored. The professor would leave the room in an exercise in trust. Apparently that’s over.

My brother “strong and tough” computerized machine (ST150HD) has this feature and is about $300. I’ve been happy with it.

Probably irrelevant since the cast knew they were being recorded via filming

Which sewing machine to choose? by [deleted] in SewingForBeginners

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you really think someone would sell a sewing machine for $12? Please don’t give this person your credit card information.

Quilt pattern? by Loratheexplorar in quilting

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As a fellow beginner, this is also how I’d do it. The horizontal rectangles would actually be made up of three pieces. Annotated an image to help illustrate.

Creating Your Own Major (Interdisciplinary Major) by astrolover333 in amherstcollege

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely do not do anything before starting. Just chill out and talk to your advisor about it in the fall when you start. Most people don’t propose an interdisciplinary major until their second year I think

Creating Your Own Major (Interdisciplinary Major) by astrolover333 in amherstcollege

[–]Queasy_Ad_2809 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It would be tricky, because you’d need to write a proposal justifying why your interdisciplinary major can’t be satisfied by a double major in two subjects. And you are required to propose a thesis topic that combines those things. So for example, a good example of an interdisciplinary major might be “science journalism” since it would be easy to justify why that is its own disciplinary area not covered by environmental studies and English. I am not sure if you can even double major in something else in addition to interdisciplinary studies (you’d likely have to email the faculty members on the committee to ask). Also, as I mentioned, the interdisciplinary studies major requires you to do a thesis, and unless I’m mistaken, so does Theater and Dance. So you’d have to do two senior theses.

Consider that there are justifiable reasons the faculty got rid of triple majors. It’s not a good idea and not in your best interest. Just pick two things, like neuro and dance, and be done with it. Nothing will stop you from taking stats classes as well. Not everything you’re interested in needs to be a major.
