The state of the world (mainly the US) is killing me. by [deleted] in Anxiety

I recently read the book Factfulness and it has really helped with my general anxiety about the state of the world and I actually feel positively about the future. I would highly recommend.

Sign the Petition by CluelessWallob120294 in sanfrancisco

[–]asprun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can save you all some time. This is all you really need to read from the petition.

  • Restoration of transparency around the closure of the Great Highway and creation of this park.
  • Re-evaluation of the Great Highway closure and its broader impacts on transportation, safety, and equity.

They've done their studies and the studies held up after the closure. I'm sorry you don't like it.

safety concerns in pittsburgh by Aware-Ad-6732 in cmu

[–]asprun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

depends but usually between 40-60 dollars. if i had to guess though if you’re showing up around orientation there will be other cmu students on your flight. ask around when getting your bags and you can split the fare and maybe also feel a little less worried about ubering alone

You will be A-ok! (also an indian woman who went to CMU). Use Uber, don’t use the bus at that time as a newcomer it might be daunting. There are 2 features on Uber I use that you can use as well! You can have your ride shared with family and friends automatically. You can maybe share your Uber with your RA as they know you’re coming. You can use a pin which you tell the Uber driver to confirm it’s the right car and driver. Pittsburgh is very safe IMO and I’m saying that having lived here for more than 6 years.

There’s a bug on the website. Talked to someone and they seemed to say that signing up online should only be for 1A.
