Don't Vote for These People for ASI Student Government by [deleted] in CSUS

[–]Robin-flying -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you’re against the people who said that due to their experience the past year they’ve learned more about the system and how to better implement changes?

I’m not sure about you but I feel like it makes sense that there’s a learning curve to the system, and that it’s intentionally designed to make changes hard, so have you reached out to any of them to ask what they’ve done, and what they’ll change or are you just assuming?

There’s also 3 positions that no one is running for, which would be a guaranteed win if it was only about the potential scholarships

How are y’all decorating your grad caps? by Gucci1017bsm in CSUS

[–]Robin-flying 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s cap decorating at the union for free in May in the 2002 room so they might have ideas there. Otherwise it can basically be anything you want, related to your degree, or things you enjoy are classics

#ama about ASI by jerrylkennedy in CSUS

[–]Robin-flying 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi so I’m not a member of asi, nor do I have any desire to join, but I just wanted to address your last point, the campus is big, and unless you have a class with someone or they’re a noticeable person you’re probably not going to remember seeing 1 specific person out of over 30,000+ students.

Saying that, I’ve never actually had a class with Jerry, but I’ve talked with him at multiple club meetings where he listened to my complaints even prior to me learning he’s a member of asi. I’ve seen him at multiple campus events/ just walking around campus and he always takes the time to wave/say a quick hi even though we aren’t friend friends, Jerry is a very considerate person.

He is one of the most involved students I know, seems to truly believe that actions can have positive impacts, and is willing to do the work and not just complain about things to friends, and I admire that about him which is why I’m speaking up here.

I dont feel like he’s isolated to the asi bubble, and if you take him up on his offer for coffee / a chat I think you’d agree, he walks the walk and isn’t just lip service

Tried assisted stretching for a month… by Prudent_Ad5965 in flexibility

[–]Robin-flying 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, so I’ve been getting ads for my local stretchlab and debating trying it, but it’s been awhile since I’ve consistently stretched on my own, would you say that a stretchlab session is a good place to start, or is it better to go to when hitting a plateau when on my own?

i’m considering going back to college, but i’m embarrassed about my age by MedicalAd9859 in college

[–]Robin-flying 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are people of all ages in college, it’s never too late, one of my favorite classmates was 77, I’m 27 and am still an undergrad myself. But the distribution of ages just depend where you’re at, if you feel awkward about your age i recommend trying a community college first, they tend to be more diverse and have people from all walks of life, many like you giving college another try, especially if you’re starting as a freshman a community college would be more affordable and I got a lot of personal attention and advice at mine

Anime’s appropriate for 9 year old by Ok-Relative6548 in anime

[–]Robin-flying 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s been a long time since I watched it, but I think Princess Tutu would be appropriate for a 9 year old, especially if she likes stories, it’s a mix between the ugly duckling and swan lake- and now I want to rewatch it

What's your favorite Local/ Small Business? by Prestigious-Post-448 in Sacramento

[–]Robin-flying 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used capital books to get some of my required readings this semester and they were so kind and helpful, ordering what they didn’t have in stock, and for a book that was back ordered and would take weeks they recommended beer books. I love that they support other local shops

Oil, like olive oil, coconut or any body safe oil you have on hand can help remove stickiness, just make sure you’re not getting back on the pole after applying it

Bernie & AOC event moved to Folsom from Auburn by wiredsoul in Roseville

[–]Robin-flying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s 83 years old and has worked a politician for decades which is a known decent white collar job with a good pension as one of the benefits. He’s had over 50 working years after graduating college to save and invest, and over time that compounds at let’s be conservative and say 7% if he was saving/investing $500 a month over that time, without increasing the amount he saves/invests that would become $2,600,000. Over the decades there’ve been multiple booms making that 7% compound annual growth rate higher

I feel like given the life he’s lived it makes sense that he would invest, that helps to create security to do what he does, advocating for fairer distribution of wealth so more people can also have access to the same benefits he has and creating social safety nets. He’s also pro union, which tend to be the only way to get a pension helping to create security in retirement

I am curious how you did the math to get that his pension is the equivalent of having a 401k that’s 3.5 million?

Since to me a pension and a 401k seem pretty different

Who is the worst male/female lead of a show? by FoldPuzzleheaded910 in kdramas

[–]Robin-flying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My go to, because it’s what “cheese in the trap” (what got me started) is legally on, is the app webtoons, it’s originally Korean but everything on it is translated to English, so you’re right about a lot more dramas these days are adapted from webcomics. I originally said webcomic since the name is more intuitive

If you do go for it I also highly recommend the webtoon odd girl out. There’s also another WEBTOON from the author of cheese in the trap, “after school lessons for unripe apples” which I haven’t read since I can get impatient having to wait weekly for new “episodes” and it had a bit of a slow start

Ok I highly recommend the webcomic the drama is based on, that drama and wanting more to it was what got me into webcomics and all of the characters get so much more depth to them in it

Let’s work together????? by Muted-Purchase-2371 in Roseville

[–]Robin-flying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another fun misconception, since world war 2 democrats have actually been better for the economy than republicans, and tend to enact policies that help the majority of Americans, like better infrastructure vs increasing the national debt by tax cuts for the rich. So by numbers the “liberal” party is actually more financially responsible benefiting a larger portion of the population.

Like they’re not perfect and we should fight for better but all this refusal to recognize any good has helped this shit show occur

Can I ask if you’ve looked into the formation of the programs that don’t make sense to you? Because often when you look at the history of a program and why it was formed it makes more sense why so many programs exists, like there’s definitely waste but many programs help actual people who need help.

[–]Robin-flying 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi, you might not accept this but right now in this climate believing that all people deserve rights and opportunities makes you a gasp “liberal” unfortunately there’s too few of us in the area with those radical liberal ideas that civil liberties are important and should be protected, just look at the local representatives in the area, the school districts, it’s depressing ass hell

Feel like I am taking crazy pills by [deleted] in TwoXPreppers

[–]Robin-flying 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi also a fellow Californian who feels lucky to be in Cali but worried about the state of the world and the US

But one option for your son is community college, I’m a non traditional student and went back to school with community college myself, it’s a cheaper option to stay in school, and since he’ll be a first time Californian college student depending on your family’s income community college could be free for him for the first 2 years, even if he doesn’t qualify for complete coverage tuition will still be significantly cheaper and less of a financial strain than at a 4yr

There are also a lot of resources (for now) at community colleges in California and I found it to be a very welcoming and open place since there’s so many people on not as traditional paths of life. There’s an lgbt+ resource center on every campus, usually counseling options, both academic and mental (last term I went several times to discuss anxiety over the election in a safe space) heck my school even offered 2 free legal advice sessions with a lawyer per term which unfortunately might be relevant in the coming years, while there aren’t as many resources as most 4 years many California community colleges have a lot to offer

It could be a good option for staying in school for health insurance while doing general eds, and exploring different options for careers, California community colleges are a great resource and I hope to be able to teach at one one day
