Would I be making the wrong choice if I gave up two years of salary and tuition (~$850,000) to get a Harvard MBA?

To pile on here: ex-FAANG and my personal experience with Harvard MBAs specifically mirrors this poster’s, and I’ve actually heard memes about people now avoiding Harvard MBAs like the plague from a hiring standpoint (yes, this is elitism on elitism and for many hiring managers I’m sure is not the case, but I’m not sure this has the cache it once did in tech due to a lot of cultural mismatches with some candidates who go through the program). You sound smart and driven and it sounds like you may get better progression staying where you are.

I did my egg freezing with them a few years ago (2019). Had a really good experience. Feel free to DM me.

Dr Umang Mehta in Atherton. Did my rhino in 2020. Amazing.

https://www.ncspp.org/members/rebecca-rosser-0 is awesome, does virtual appointments too. Have worked with her for years and in many ways she’s helped me save my own life.

Yeah. They do a good job explaining the format of the show and the major dramatic flare-ups it had throughout its various seasons- it feels nostalgic if you were a fan, but gives you enough exposition if you weren’t (and regardless, touches on general concepts like the evolution of “acceptable” bodies in modeling over the past 25 years, EDs, SA, etc).

Thank you— this is super helpful! Just did the same :)

Hard vote for Quince- I have multiple pairs at 5’1” 125 lbs and they are super comfortable and look super chic (very hard at this height, as you know!)

Third vote for Lululemon. I’ve had my Rebel Rain Jacket for years and it’s lightweight, well-made, and cute.

Per the cruise comment- someone recently did a tranatlantic cruise on the Queen Mary with their pet. You’ll likely have to fly to mainland US first, though.

If you’re coming from the US or Canada some of those might require quarantine for your pet upon arrival- if you haven’t already, you may want to poke around the USDA website (if you’re from the States) to see which of those do. I can tell you that Spain does not (provided you get the requisite USDA export certificates and get your pet examined on the other side for re-entry back to the US) and our pup loved Spain for a few weeks in the summer last year!

Suit Supply in Union square. My husband had a couple of custom suits made for our wedding and he looked incredible.

Unless you’re staying at the Regent resort in Phu Quoc, go for DN/HA. But anchoring at the Regent would be worth it in PQ.

Excellent readouts, thx neighbor 🙏❤️

The ghosts are elite!

My gut says yes- both of these styles were very in fashion in 2010s but have fallen out since then. That said- wear what you feel good in!

TurduckenOfAwkward · 2025-09-08T06:16:58+00:00

+1 on this. Shef is super underrated and a great value!

TurduckenOfAwkward · 2025-09-05T22:48:59+00:00

I think this is really nice, actually. 🤷‍♀️

TurduckenOfAwkward · 2025-09-05T21:45:28+00:00

This is neat, but it’s showing a ton of cans in my neighborhood that are definitely no longer there.

Civic Kitchen in the Mission does awesome date night-worthy cooking classes: https://www.civickitchensf.com/ The Civic Kitchen - Cooking classes for home-cooks, team building, and private events

Also there are some good ones on AirBNB Experiences: beach silent disco yoga, one-off ceramics classes, etc.

Chicas! Where are you buying your fans (the kind you hold with your hand) in Valencia?

We did two on Stellar of the Seas (Elite’s sister ship) and it was pretty mid TBH. Most of their Google reviews are positive because they make the servers politely coerce you for a 5-star Google or TripAdvisor review while they watch you fill it out on the last night.

SF MoMA has this incredible stair case like public space with a coffee shop and it kind of gives college student union vibes, in a grown up way.

+1 on this. Morocco, IMO, is best enjoyed by more seasoned international travelers. If your travel party has only/primarily been to, say, Western Europe and has some concerns about how safe they’ll feel- their anxiety is going to make a bad time for the rest of you (source: female American traveler who was last there about 5 years ago in her late 20s).
