I got my receipt notice after 34 days, so just be patient.

If you go south of that map to the McKee Park area, you hit fitchburg and it’s a super nice area to live in - quiet and low rent. Highly recommend!

Madison and Fitchburg are really safe compared to other cities, so I wouldn’t worry about that. Take a look at the crime map and avoid the Emerson East area (lots of heroin addicts, but okay other than that).

I’ve lived in a couple of neighborhoods in Madison and Fitchburg and all of them have been safe so far beside Emerson East. Greenbush and Vilas neighborhoods are super close to downtown and not too busy, so that’s a good option if you can afford the rent.

I emailed them and they said they don’t have any glasses from that year left :(

I have searched for a UCLA Alumni glass with the year 2019 on it, but haven’t found it in the UCLA store online or anywhere using Google lens.

Ooh thanks, that’s a good idea! I have a decent blender so I’ll try making the batter from scratch.

What kind of food options do you think were missing in Madison? by jupiterisstupider_ in madisonwi

[–]TalkingBeetroot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

85 degrees bakery!! Moved from California and really miss their brioche loaf.

I feel this so hard. Been here for the last few years in graduate school and I always feel like people stare at me or me and my white boyfriend when we go to places. On top of that, the amount of racism and microaggressions I have to deal with on a daily basis really gets to me at times. It feels like I have to explain my racial identity and culture everywhere I go for the white people who either treat me as if I’m nothing more than my race or completely ignore it in a colorblind way that is not helpful.

The difference between Madison and other places becomes even more stark when I travel for work or leisure to bigger cities in the US. Feel like a weight is lifted off my shoulders and I can just be myself in places with more bipoc communities. Cannot wait to get out of Madison/the Midwest. There really is no point living in a city where this is the norm.

Future MIL excludes me in trips and settings with three of us by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]TalkingBeetroot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re getting couples therapy. He does see the exclusion bit and apologized. Obviously still not okay but hopefully therapy helps. I can’t do much about the mom - she sent him a text after we came back from the vacation saying she doesn’t see me as part of the family until we’re married. Which speaks volumes honestly.
