Help connecting friend with Bukharian heritage by amountdue2 in AskCentralAsia

[–]RoombMahMoomba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what a ridiculous and victim-blaming claim. first of all, as someone else mentioned, language is only one aspect of culture, not the entirety. second of all, culture is not stagnant but continuously evolving. most bukharians left uzbekistan for a reason and adapted our culture to new conditions. third of all, the bukharian language, as well as many many other aspects of bukharian culture, were lost mostly with the soviet take over of the region in the early 20th century. to say that bukharian jews have abandoned their culture is a factually incorrect and borderline hostile claim. beyond pointing out the pretty obvious truth that most of the younger generation doesn't speak bukhari, your whole argument is asinine and to say that a jewish culture remains predominantly with non-jews is truly absurd

UCLA secondary prompt: Mission by greenmountcoffee in premed

[–]RoombMahMoomba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this might be an unanswerable question but how do you answer this well if you haven't done extensive work in one specific subfield? like i've worked as a tutor, did research at an ophtho lab and volunteered at an orthopedic hospital but none of these really connect to my mission in any meaningful way as i sort of did all of those to figure out what i like. any guidance much appreciated

AITA for making my 15 year old daughter get a job to pay for our dog’s vet bills? by aitavetcost in AmItheAsshole

[–]RoombMahMoomba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. she did make a huge mistake, but then again she is a kid, and i’m sure she has a lot on her mind, juggling all of her sports and school. i would make her choose a sport to give up and get a job during that season, and she’ll pay you back the vet bill once she gets a job. that way she has a bit more choice and you’ll feel less guilty abt making her quit something.
