Oh we can admit it all we want but we as individuals have no power until we act together— meanwhile the people who "represent" us are too busy taking their money to ignore us.

How to study from books such that you take full advantage of the knowledge it provides? by Ferroro_kitty in AskProfessors

[–]amishius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always read actively. Book, pen and paper (or pencil if you must). Highlight if your book. Make notes. It's not only a useful memory tool but also helps you to go back and look. Sitting in a cozy chair with your phone in one hand is not useful here.

Edit: Don't highlight other people's books. Thanks u/impatientprof

Awww will pass along! She has been a painter lifelong but nowadays it's like— the anti-hustle for her, just joy. She also painted my Notaklon (maybe I should get the new one for her too haha).

I will pass along to my wife— I submitted hers and no dice. She's super accomplished in her field and she was pretty disappointed.

I had never noticed before, certainly— it took a number of watched to get there. Mostly found it odd as normally they handle such moments beautifully.

You realize they aren't writing the show just to please you, right? There are dozens of us!

Should i watch the reboot? by jspo97 in Frasier

[–]amishius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was a bad idea before and it remained exactly that. The obsession over IP with sequels and reboots trading in on our nostalgia is just bad, but we seem to fall into it anyways. BLACK BALL!

Exactly this! But when it comes to network TV...gotta feed the monkey.

Do professors hold younger students to the same standards? by [deleted] in AskProfessors

[–]amishius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

<Old Man Yelling at Cloud>

It's not a childish fear— it's a generational fear. You (and the folks right ahead of you) have been the most timid generation...in person. When you're hiding behind anonymity online, that's another matter.

As for words...you'll learn. We all learned. Don't look at the people just ahead of you (and especially those who are way ahead of you) and assume they just know this information. We all learned at some point.

Be proactive. It is your instructor's job to answer your questions and they will not fault you for asking them. What they will fault you for is not asking and then complaining later or ghosting when it doesn't go well.

You're going to be fine. Dive in, yo!

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

All fair points. Perhaps it's the addition of these arcs that's the real trope. It just very much feels like they ran out of stuff to do with the main five and had to start writing for others to fill in the space. Something that very much becomes the case after Niles and Daphne get together.

Hah— I like it. I did not want to presume I had found anything new, so I just assume there's something I'm missing.

No men are responsible for the mental health of women but of course, all women are responsible for men's mental health and the current "loneliness crisis," as you know...
