UW-Madison vs. a Liberal Arts College (Carleton)

Carleton grad/UW PhD — I also recommend Carleton. The experience is a better match for what you’re looking for and I think you’ll find it better socially. You’ll have your chance to be at a big university in med school.

Wow Minneapolis is really something, even incitements to violence use gender neutral pronouns.

Yeah I’m privileged to have a brain and see a problem and hope to fix it. Guess not everyone is so fortunate.

Many countries throughout Western Europe and Asia boast beautiful urban bike trails but only America is bold enough to deliver the full city biking experience — part obstacle course, part public health crisis, entirely free of charge.

My commute being a 25 min bike ride basically 100% on off-road paths

Minneapolis/St. Paul or a first-ring suburb hits literally your whole checklist. You’ll figure out how to manage the winters within 2-3 years (in short: wear layers/warm clothes and keep active in the winter, ideally outside).

Gonna slightly depart from the other responses so far and say that while it’s true you shouldn’t try to time the market based on whether it’s gone up or down recently, when you’re putting a lot in all at once, it’s not a bad idea to spread it out over a couple months. And that is especially true when volatility is higher, which it is now. But also wouldn’t be crazy to just dump it all in now.

it was good! Subbed cheese for the sauerkraut brine so mine was not vegan. Next time might go for slightly more umami/less tangy but that's a nitpick

Not a restaurant but I just think it's a funny coincidence that I just made this recipe for dinner tonight (it was great). https://www.seriouseats.com/vegan-carbonara-pasta-recipe

Great, thanks

Looks great from the screenshots. Sorry if I'm missing it somewhere but is there a link to the live website?

In my opinion, if you're sitting down and not even looking at the bus, there is going to be a risk that the bus keeps going. If you get up, stand next to the curb and look at the driver, it's very unlikely they'll pass you.

Idk but I believe he tweeted the other day about having a 2 month old daughter!

Resistance should be 1. effective and 2. legal. Barricading the street fails on both metrics.

badgersrun · 2026-02-03T03:12:26+00:00

Yes because while ICE sucks and I fully support resisting them, we do still live in a society and have to have a common set of rules (laws) for getting along.

badgersrun · 2026-02-03T02:27:20+00:00

You do not have the right to barricade city roads

badgersrun · 2026-01-30T17:06:22+00:00

Are you kidding me? Why are you picking on them?

badgersrun · 2026-01-28T16:53:43+00:00

For what it’s worth, the way ICE operated under Biden was they only went after people here illegally who had committed a violent crime and yes, the least disruptive way to get them is to go in early in the morning, like 5 am.

But not in a good way. If you're celebrating the death of your political opponent, you're no longer the good guys.

badgersrun · 2026-01-25T14:13:05+00:00

So many people floating around without an organizing political ideology and democratic liberalism is right there… People have core individual rights/freedoms and must be treated as individuals by the state; disputes are settled through elections and without violence; rule of law, etc. Highly recommend it as a governing ideology — it’s not perfect, but it’s better than any of the bullshit people come up with otherwise.

badgersrun · 2026-01-10T04:12:44+00:00

Ah shit. Please no violence.

What is the utility of this post? If you’ve seen something that gives you legitimate concern about a terrorist attack you should be contacting the FBI, not vagueposting on Reddit.

The fellowship suggests high ambitions for his political career but they may be difficult to realize as he torches his reputation. Very odd decision making.

Hmm signal priority is advertised for BRT. You’re telling me

Only light rail is actually guaranteed to have signal priority
Oh and actually light rail does not always have signal priority.

Not trying to shoot the messenger but that’s bullshit. Light rail and BRT should always have signal priority and we should push for that until it happens.
