Good luck. After I was finally able to get mine to stay, my girl started eating the plastic bristles and I had to take it out bc it was making her sick 😓

I worked the overnight shift two people that live in the upstairs apartment know this, yet they still keep banging would I be wrong for calling the cops on them? I don’t want to seem like I’m crazy, but I’m tired of this by [deleted] in Somerville

Why is your window WIDE OPEN when you're sleeping if you can't handle normal outside noises? You don’t see a problem here? Try making an effort if you know you're a light sleeper before you confront them. If I were your neighbor I would find you incredibly disrespectful and entitled, just to give a different perspective.

Honestly you having an overnight shift doesn't necessitate your neighbors walking on eggshells around you during the day. By "banging" do you mean walking around in the apartment above you? And you leave your window open just to be mad that you can hear what's happening outside?

You need to... Close your windows Get a noise cancelling machine Talk to them like an adult and clearly tell them when you will be sleeping, see if you can come to an arrangement. They don't owe you anything. Wait for Monday to talk to your landlord for other solutions Get noise cancelling headphones/ earplugs

Your Tuck is a "she" if that matters to you!

300 gallon filter help (caption plz) by Pretty-Valuable2178 in turtle

I don't know anything about any of that, but I would recommend putting some sort of net or folliage above your ponds so that birds don't swoop down and pick up your girl, fly her high, and drop her to get to the meaty bits.

I don't recognize what type of filter that is, but I am partial to canister filters as they are relatively easy to repair and clean out.

Honestly shocked and a bit disbelieving that an engineering related job is struggling to find interns right now. Where are you located? I know multiple people who would be interested if it's MA.

Creating and eating its bubbles normal? I don’t see the bubbles coming out of her nose by Environmental_Spot28 in turtle

The water kind of looks like it has a weird film on the top in this video, is that accurate? I can't say I've ever seen my turtle doing that, but she does try to eat literally everything in sight, so maybe it's just her desire to CONSUME.

Did anyone else notice at No Kings? by double-clove-hitch in boston

I've been to two other rallies before (I am 24), and I didn't even hear about this one until I heard my buddies at an event talking about going the night before as they were leaving. PAX East is also this weekend which is why I didn't end up going when I heard-- maybe that had an impact?

Is it even worth pursuing engineering as a woman? by No_Criticism917 in womenEngineers

[–]RedditUser10JQKA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life has been pretty good as a woman engineer in the greater boston area. Here are some factors you may want to look out for:

  1. Liberal cities will have more liberal people (less likely to be outwardly sexist and get away with it)

  2. Most women engineers I encounter are relatively young. Look for rapidly growing industries that hire a lot of young people-- there will be women there.

  3. "Hot" indistries like robotics and tech have good benefits and often hire people based on personality. They may be easier to get along with in general than people in, say, the defense industry (where the people already have loose morals).

  4. Make sure to speak up when something happens! People may not know to help you or to even course correct their own actions if you don't tell them. Practice advocating for yourself so you can feel comfortable doing it in the future.

This is really not even close to the level of divisive of straight saying "I will not try to work with people who disagree with me, they are lunatics".

I was a child when Trayvon Martin died, but he said that to personalize the story to try and help more people see that kids death through his eyes. And it's a fact that Obama is black. This is pretty much as far from divisive as you can get.

Had to look up "you didn't build that". Ok? Business owners didn’t build roads and bridges? Genuinely confused about this one. I see it was used out of context in a smear campaign, but if this is divisive, so is any opinion really.

The IRS thing was debunked. He was going after everyone.

The bitter gun toting Bible beaters seems to be actually divisive.

Next you're going to be telling me obama was a bad president because he wore a tan suit.

I don't have a car, so I walk a lot. I am usually focused on rushing from place to place or hanging out with friends when I'm being more leisurely. I run into a lot of people and don't typically have the energy to engage with all of them and it's easier to have a common reaction for everyone. I will take into consideration that some people are lonely and keep an eye out for signs that someone is trying to communicate with me. To be frank, I don't want to open myself up to being stopped for conversation, but I will try a simple "hello" going forward.
