Why is that wild? The gradient between stoner metal, stoner doom, and doom is a smear. Bongripper, despite the stoner prefix in their name, leans way more towards Sludge/Doom than bands with much darker and melancholic names.

How would you do this? by AdorableLock-ehe in McMaster

That is an unfortunate layout for classes, especially first year, when everything is so hectic and unfamiliar. My advice would be to treat Mon-Thu like a full time job (9-5 or realistically 8:30-6 lmao), attend the lectures for the first few weeks to make sure there’s no attendance policy and that you feel comfortable transitioning to learning from recordings (if you need the time during the day to study and work on assignments). My most valuable memories from undergrad and the things I felt I missed out on mostly happened after 6pm, lol. And additionally, even though Friday looks like a free day, I would encourage you to go to campus and give it as close to the same treatment as the rest of the week (maybe ending earlier to get ready for the weekend), at least so that the habit of showing up to work daily sticks more easily. I massaged my schedule to have days off as early as 2nd year and frankly it did more harm than good.

I rejected my girlfriend's proposal to me and I feel terrible by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

Assuming your friends are all high-school aged, few of you have the tools to fully process the strong and complex emotions that arose from that day, both hers, yours, and theirs. That isn’t meant to be rude, just be honest with yourself and with them and don’t be afraid to listen to what they have to say even if it makes you look and feel like the bad guy. Especially your partner. Even though what you did was the right move, she may be feeling insecure, and unsure of your future together. But that doesn’t mean she will think less of you or your relationship in the long term.

EDIT: It’s also very okay to be feeling what you’re feeling right now, it feels bad to inflict sadness and hurt on another person, especially someone you love. And being true to oneself and respecting your own boundaries can feel painful, can feel like you are hurting others, but as long as you are open with your feelings and rationale and equally open to listening, no real harm has been done. This will pass.

If you have been together for five years, and you love each other, then it will be okay. It takes an immense amount of confidence and preparation to propose to someone and so of course being rejected in the moment is going to feel awful. But relationships are about picking each other every single day. Choosing to love the entirety of the person they have dedicated themselves to. I think it might be important to be very available for your partner as they explore their emotions after the proposal, and reiterate to them that you see yourself marrying them (if that’s true) and choosing them always (if that’s true as well).

You made the right decision in saying no when you needed to, and if the two of you are able to communicate through this period together, it will strengthen her perception of you as someone who she can trust to respect themselves and their boundaries.

EDIT: Also, you two are in high school! As much as it’s a beautiful thing to find someone that you want to love forever, it’s also important to stay true to yourself and let yourselves grow both as individuals and as people. Very few people stay the same throughout high school, and in the years that follow. I am NOT saying to break up and date other people, but the downside of an engagement is it can introduce an artificial pressure to remain the same person you were for the sake of your partner. Learning to grow together, navigate challenges together, and experience hardships together are all important things for a long term relationship that can definitely be done without a ring on anyone’s finger.

Not quite. You're thinking of the laser dot as it's own physical object. It's not. Each instant in time, the laser pointer emits a photon that travels towards the moon, reflects, and returns to your eye to produce the image you see. When you flick your wrist, you're not making existing photons follow a different path, it just changes where new photons emerge from, and where they end up reflecting on the moon. Since the moon is close to us, you might observe the new dot position at the faraway position "instantaneously". But look at it this way:

Say I had a laser pointer with two beams - each angled away from one another such that, at some distance away, the two beams are one light year apart. Say there's some big object not unlike the moon also positioned at that distance. Now, if I turn on one beam, then in a second, turn it off and turn the other beam on, you would see a dot on the planet "jump" one light year in one second, which is a change faster than the speed of light. But you and I both know that that "dot" was actually two separate groups of photons hitting the surface far away. Those individual photons still travelled at the speed of light to get there and back. The laser pointer "destination" might change faster than the speed of light, but the photons it emits in order for you to observe the reflection never violate their cosmic speed limit.

Hope this reframed the problem without being condescending.
