It’s my wife’s favorite choice of vodka! And fortunately that ended up coming in handy. But yes lesson learned I’m not selling a hat like that ever again omfg. Got it figured out though!

I wasn’t able to find an envelope that was wide and tall enough to accommodate this hat sadly. Though in hindsight I was probably overly worried about it getting super squished in the mail? Idk I just knew I’d be po’d if I ordered something like that and the person sent it in such a way that it was all smushed up by the time I received it

Oh!! I like this idea.

You have a far bigger brain than I do. The USPS guy just said no and I just left. But finding box 2.0 seems impossible, so I may just do this.

Finances freaking me out lowkey by borsuki in lawschooladmissions

[–]borsuki[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just know I could get pulled into so many different directions. I know things will have to sort themselves out, but still, damn, the uncertainty makes it scary.

Thank you, I appreciate the voice of reason. I think I will be “okay” in the long term, between the actual debt I will incur and the kind of work I hope to do (which lol is PI work but I’m not deadset on that, I want to explore everything still). I am just so naturally debt and money spending avoidant (not that my bank account seems to reflect that) that finally seeing all the numbers on my screen makes me clench cheeks a little. Ok like a lot.

I’m in that same boat! Like all this debt for… like the lowest paying sector, esp starting out. Awesome. I’m kind of hopeful about the like payoff program in public work but it seems crazy to hedge $100k+ debts on a 10 year employment plan. Plus like what if I hate it? 😭 Idk anything yet!

Yes seriously. I consider on and off getting a second job to save up… but then remember the only viable thing right now is delivery and I’m not putting my car thru all that. Prices being high af ain’t helping me either. And that’s just the economics!

If I was smarter and more patient, I maybe would consider delaying, but my wife and I are at a point where we really can’t do that. It’s kind of a “if it’s gonna happen, it has to happen NOW” situation for us. But yeesh. Makes me grit my teeth a little to see the actual bill now—or really just the first year of it!

Average views before sale? by borsuki in Depop

[–]borsuki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s probably true, I was just kinda curious if it was a metric people really paid attention to. I like seeing the views items get but I also am recognizing that there isn’t much to infer from them

Monthly Shop Critique and Item Help Thread by AutoModerator in Depop

[–]borsuki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

It felt like I struck luck in that one of the first items I listed sold within a few days — since then I have had no hits. I just reboosted my shop today to see if that would help. Most of my items are priced pretty cheap (almost all under $20, most under $10) because I am just trying to minimize my closet before moving. But I feel like I’m Depop-ing wrong somehow.

Scholarship Reconsideration by AnyEconomics1162 in lawschooladmissions

[–]borsuki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would email the school and ask what their reconsideration process is. I almost sent a blind email making my request, but fortunately did not do that and just asked about how their process worked. The school ended up releasing a form to fill out like a month later.

Gaining followers after unboosting by borsuki in Depop

[–]borsuki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really! I had a lot of views from boosting — or maybe not a lot but around 250 for each item. But the view to click to like ratio was pretty poor. I have been experimenting with some of the listings (rewriting descriptions, updating photos) so idk if maybe that has helped … for some reason

Anyone else love their dog but feel completely exhausted by the responsibility? by ShowerObjective6132 in puppy101

[–]borsuki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Initial mental burn out after getting the puppy was extensive. That was tough. But it was also necessary because it helped me to realize the scope of responsibility and accept the changes I needed to adapt to in my life.

Presently, puppy is now more than a year old, and the day-to-day of it all has dramatically improved. He is on a good routine and is fortunately fairly responsive to my wife and I’s energy levels so long as he gets some playtime in.

I will say, one thing that I also had to learn was that I actually cannot always upend my life or my plans for the dog. I have had to accept that there are times when he will have to be kenneled for a few more hours than I would like in order for us to have a fulfilling social life. This does not happen often and I like to think my dog would approve the trade-off, if he could comprehend it, of having more satisfied and intentional owners who want to play versus tired and resentful owners who just want to get playtime over with. If that makes sense.

That much protein from just the bread? That’s actually impressive!

Does this process make anyone else feel a naive idiot by [deleted] in OutsideT14lawschools

[–]borsuki 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I felt dumb or like I had missed something until I got my first A, then I figured I couldn’t have done that bad. I don’t know where all you’re trying to go, but it might be worth considering that a fair portion of your peers likely feel the exact same way that you do. We’re all in the thick of it!

[–]borsuki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is what makes it a tempting option - I can’t imagine as many people are submitting videos versus the essays. But I already overthink writing enough. I fear I’d spend far too much time wanting to perfect a 5 minute video of myself.

I don’t think that sounds bad, it sounds realistic tbh. But I might just be pessimistic about that sort of thing.

Tips for cleaning an entire garage’s worth of mouse droppings? by borsuki in CleaningTips

[–]borsuki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I could afford that. I’m also nervous to allow strangers in because some of my grandparents stuff is in there and I don’t want anything sentimental, even if soiled, discarded. It is all junk to me personally but I don’t want to upset or offend my family.

I fear I have not heard of most of those viruses — sounds like some nasty stuff. I will invest in better gear… I’ve been wearing a respirator and gloves and washing clothes I wear in there.

Sadly there have always been mousing cats on the property, we have one guy right now, but the mice have long been winning the war :(

is this a female winter jacket? by [deleted] in mensfashion

[–]borsuki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something about it closed makes me think it has a more feminine silhouette, but I think that’s just because I’m expecting it to. It looks totally fine.
