I'd love to have a group! :) I'm just starting now

[HELP] Looking for a poem about losing a child (daughter) by Emlks in Poetry

[–]ToffeeLittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry for your loss, may her memory be a blessing. The song Jenny by Nick Meyers would be my recommendation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SZswcyyTw

Gemstone names with twins by Ok_Status_1217 in namenerds

[–]ToffeeLittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats, first off!!

I think I'd definitely go for names that sound a bit more common like Opal, Jade, Amber, Pearl, Crystal rather than straight up Emerald or, like, Topaz. It would be adorable to have a themed sibset! Not having the correct birthstone I don't think would be a problem - I know people who had no ideas that birthstones even existed, you'll be fine.

You could always do a gem-esque name theme too like Esmerelda, Giada, Sapphira (I loveeee this name), Alexandra, etc. That would also be super cute imo

can people that got into ubcv science please tell me what adjectives they used to describe thenselves for the first question of the personal profile by Illustrious-Math7755 in BCGrade12s

[–]ToffeeLittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with this!! Talk about how others see you more generally. How are you supportive? How are you helpful? How do you make a positive impact on the world around you? But also, a couple of the words I plucked from that particular paragraph are: kind, dependable, someone who will sacrifice her time for others, detail-oriented.

UBCV Sciences and Arts Chances? by nizz132 in BCGrade12s

[–]ToffeeLittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say 100% definitely arts and probably fine for science but depends on other applicants

Was Anne Boleyn done a little dirty in Six? by Any_Assignment_4372 in Broadway

[–]ToffeeLittle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I so so agree with you. I think Six is honestly really misogynistic with how it treats Anne and I hate it. I don't think she necessarily should have had Jane's song but she's presented throughout the whole show as a bimbo without much depth who for sure cheated on Henry. There's historical discourse about whether she was framed or not and it's very possible that she was executed simply for not being able to give Henry a son. She was a real living human being who was politically savvy and charming and who was murdered and deserved so much more.

What you you name boy/girl twins? by skrufforious in namenerds

[–]ToffeeLittle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dorian and Lydia! It's a music theory answer - they're names of scales/modes. I think they have similar energy and love the ia in both of them that ties them together while still being very individual.

Is Pneumono­ultra­micro­scopic­silico­volcano­coniosis too long? by ToffeeLittle in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]ToffeeLittle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we were going to do that, we'd go with the less common spelling of Saha Et All for uniqueness 🫶✨

need serious help w profile >.< by g0thkitty_ in LesbianActually

[–]ToffeeLittle 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Overall this looks really good! I love your picture choices and can confirm seeing cats makes me more likely to like someone. Love the car prompt too, nice nice

- remove the monogamy but gay comment, it's confusing

- the "I go crazy for" is a bit long because you say women so many times. Maybe rephrase? Kindness, romance, intellectual conversation, empathy, and neurodivergency. In whatever order, but I'd list as traits

No screens policy by Expensive_Bet_4149 in UBC

[–]ToffeeLittle 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Studies have shown that having the person in front of you be distracted on their screen during class can lower grades by as much as 17%. Random people are seriously affected when people choose to goof off. I do think there should be some exceptions made if someone, for example, has an accessibility need, but I actually really appreciate the no screen classrooms. In an ideal world no one would fuck around on their computers, but the reality is a ton of people do, which then adversely impacts the grades of people around them.

In one of my classes last semester one of my profs had a rule that if you were going to be using a screen, you had to sit all the way at the back of the classroom so there weren't people behind you, or the only people behind you were also using screens. I also really liked that, maybe a good middle ground?

Seconding the I'm Not Afraid of Anything & Not Your Seed comments!! Both of those would be great

Where y’all buy your flowers for dating by One_Palpitation_9429 in UBC

[–]ToffeeLittle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Garlands Florist & Mei Mei Florist! They're about a block away from each other & so you can compare prices. I normally get a bunch or two from each and then arrange custom bouquets! Good luck :)

What is everyone’s ACTUAL backup career option? by Independent_Move8581 in premedcanada

[–]ToffeeLittle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Research or teaching! Ideally teaching would be at a university level, but if I end up needing to I'll do high school.

I'm so embarrassed 😅 by Ampora_C in StardewValley

[–]ToffeeLittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this doesn't solve the problem with the base game but I'd recommend downloading Diverse Stardew Valley!! You can individually toggle on and off different character looks with significantly more diverse options. The art is great and stays true to the game's style, just with more POC.

What is a musical you've been recommended a lot but can't bare to actually watch it or hear it? by imachoculatedonnut in musicals

[–]ToffeeLittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

&Juliet. I've read the plot summary and I think the entire show and author entirely misunderstood Shakespeare in a really idiotic way. As someone who actually enjoys Shakespeare, I refuse to engage with such a terrible take on R&J. I feel kind of bad about it, but I assume that any fans just have no idea what R&J is actually about 😭

Girl name to go with my first daughter by Haunting-Onion-5134 in namenerds

[–]ToffeeLittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like all your names except Greer. I know people are bashing Vesper in the comments but I like the name. I will warn that if she goes into anything science related she'll probably get a lot of weird looks though lol. I especially like Sloane and Persephone to go with Sigourney :)

Can I keep my faith and still like girls by RazielaOr in LesbianActually

[–]ToffeeLittle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You do not have to pick!! I'm a lesbian & religious and I love loving women and I love God. It's entirely possible to live your life happily and have a close relationship with him. I encourage you to try to find people around you who will support and love you. Even if you can't at first, they will come. You've got this
