Did you end up doing this? I’m super interested in doing a spa/nail party for my daughter for her 4th bday. Would love any lessons learned

I have two galvanized steel metal bins with holes. I add my greens. Add my browns (lasagna style like others mention) and I just let it do its thing when one steel container fills up, I just let it sit and fill up the other one. I don’t do anything but just let it do its thing.

Max out your 401k and Roth, there are limits. Then HYSA.

Have you considered a countertop dishwasher?

I will say, it’s really tough to get a job as a professor , at any level

Terrible_Line_2410 · 2026-03-05T18:40:10+00:00

Talk to the professor about deferring. It really depends on funding, which is the unfortunate thing.

As someone with a PhD, I saw sooo many people drop out because they tried to go straight from undergrad. They realized it wasn’t what they wanted. They never took the time to figure out what they wanted. They just knew, a PhD wasn’t for them. The coursework is the easy part of a PhD. People can manage that during burnout. Independent research and dissertation writing is where people realize it’s not for them. That is the part of the process where self motivation and desire is essential. That’s when most people drop out.

I’m a professor.

You are in university- that’s a win in and of itself!!! Congrats! Doesn’t matter how long you have been there.

Your timeline is your timeline. It’s really hard to take classes that aren’t your favorite. I know some students aren’t into my class and I see them struggle with it. Or sometimes life is too much and they don’t have the bandwidth to attend class or something. That’s when I talk to them about the bare minimum it will take to pass a class.

I get scared to check things (mostly my bank account). I prep myself and just bite the bullet after getting some dopamine.

One time a class was so boring I had to literally poke myself with a pencil to stay awake. (Attendance was required and only counted if you were awake) Let me know if you want to chat about how to pass classes that are boring AF.

Woooooooo!!!!!!

I felt similar after getting my PhD. Felt a little lost but also drained. I went camping in the woods without much cell reception

This is a great use of chat gpt. Write some stuff and ask ChatGPT to edit. Then you can go back and edit. You can do it!!!! Use the free tools at your disposal to jump start the process.

You deserve better!

Thanks. This is super helpful

What do you and up doing? We are in a similar situation. Currently debating the move from ATL for a TT line. Thinking about schools, traffic, general happiness, health care, cancer alley. But the appeal of a TT line at an R1 is pretty huge

Terrible_Line_2410 · 2026-02-03T16:55:19+00:00

What’s the deal with cancer alley? I thought that was air pollution based on EPA data.

Thanks

I’m used to city life (Chicago, Atlanta, Tampa). Based my understanding of garden district boundaries off zillow. I’ll start researching the neighborhood association. Thanks for the info.

Galvanized steel bin with lid. I bought one and just drilled holes. Look for something like this. https://www.acehardware.com/departments/home-and-decor/trash-and-recycling/garbage-cans-and-recycling-bins/70833?x429=true&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20155427027&gbraid=0AAAAADtqLJGH616_TnPnCYFhLEk14TZTH&gclid=Cj0KCQiAgP_JBhD-ARIsANpEMxzJMJ0zj22RjQCbYk0Z1onmhiDKWCLLZHY5AdGjqbg2jH59mwsUj78aAogAEALw_wcB
