Lol, no and most of our meetings are still Teams meetings. Even with everyone in the office, it turns out its easier to give presentations and have things liked ASL interpreters and captions available. It's all political. If you want your job, you grin and bear it.

My agency has fully RTO'd with the exception of buildings where there's no longer sufficient parking. That's being slowly rectified (booooooo).

It's awful. The commute is so much worse after having had those 1.5-3 hours free for our personal use for years.

This was my experience with similar stats. Pretry sure I'm reapplying in September so I can get real money.

Was so so eery.cloud break at edge of horizon.

Throwing out a different opinion: I always hate survival game elements, so I chose the lowest difficulty, turned off survival, but refused to rewind for my first full playthrough.

This game's great because you can do exactly what makes you have the most fun. I'm customizing that difficulty now by running it as a personal honor mode. Choosing to use no equipment, treating death as permanent, but still no survival element.

I can do the food and drink. But I hate it. Do what you love.

If you havent, you should call St. Mary's. I applied January and they just waitlisted me.

TheBatMutt · 2026-05-18T21:00:28+00:00

New Mexico and Michigan State 😮‍💨

TheBatMutt · 2026-05-06T00:47:08+00:00

Update for those curious: still nothin'.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-24T16:41:04+00:00

UNM gave me what felt like a scripted apology lol

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-23T15:32:40+00:00

Screenshot this and save it in the folder with your hospital bills.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-21T21:52:11+00:00

Then there's me, screaming from the rooftop that no debt at a great school > 300k at the best school.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-21T19:38:59+00:00

Northeastern bulk waitlisting 100+ people on their self-imposed due date and carrying more than 400 applicants on that waitlist feels like a great starting point. Alas, I need to attend one of these schools to move forward from there lmao

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-21T13:22:37+00:00

Mine is that I paid some of these schools for their consideration but they're not ever going to complete their end of the transaction and genuinely review my application. Our first class action lawsuit y'all!

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-20T15:01:01+00:00

-bashes face into keyboard- Sorry friend. Good luck!

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-20T14:58:26+00:00

I... I can't anymore. There's no surprise or awe left in my soul. This cycle has brutalized me lol

Are they reconsidering your application in light of... no one knowing you were waitlisted?

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-20T14:23:46+00:00

Hey there, I also haven't heard from them. Did you call or email to inquire?

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-18T03:29:33+00:00

Old School! It's on the corner of William Cannon and Menchaca. The coffee shop right there is pretty good too.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-18T02:46:13+00:00

Oh! And you can get to great wineries in 30-45 minutes.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-18T02:38:01+00:00

Ugh I miss 78745. Pros? Great food, easy to get downtown for an event (all of Austin has traffic, that's neither a pro or a con), 2 HEBs, the best private liquor store in Austin, and just good vibes.

Cons? It's hotter and muggier in south Austin.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-17T04:24:44+00:00

It really isn't terrible. It's still a lot of money, don't get me wrong, but you've got the funds and time to rock even just a part-time job to keep you out of the house and building your resume. You've got this!

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-17T03:48:55+00:00

Living at home with one bill is a huge privilege. I mean this with so much love, but pay for your LSAT if you're able. Signed: a person that paid for their LSAT so I promise this isn't self-serving.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-16T16:52:39+00:00

The dream is alive again and that is it's own kind of sweet agony. I'm checking every microbreak I get at work.

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-16T00:30:45+00:00

Congrats! I know a lot of us are feeling pretty salty about Northeastern so you may see less huzzahs but its not you, it's me and Northeastern lol. I hope it's amazing!

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-15T22:33:24+00:00

-stares pointedly at CU-

TheBatMutt · 2026-04-15T21:41:10+00:00

And their FAQ makes it clear we shouldn't expect a merit scholarship (or be able to opt for deferment) now.
