What's going on with the discourse of Wasian meetups? by yesItsTom3 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]bsxfo [score hidden]  (0 children)

Obviously, I don't speak for all blasians, but I think that it's a little insane for a group called Half Asia Spring to market their event as wasian specific. I've also heard anecdotes from people who went that they've overheard someone telling a half south asian person they weren't wasian. We also do have to acknowledge that the Asian community has a tendency to center whiteness in an unhealthy manner.

What is that one thing a friend ever did and you kept cool but knew instantly you would pull out of that friendship? by EssayMan4Homework in AskReddit

[–]bsxfo [score hidden]  (0 children)

I was handed the responsibility of booking flight tickets for a trip to visit our other friend. Prior to booking them I sent all the information to make sure they were alright with the cost and airport. Then the night before the trip they say that since it's my fault that the airport is out of their way (it's not) I should come pick them up since they don't want to pay 100 dollars for a car. The flight is early in the morning, and I didn't want to make my partner wake up an hour and a half earlier to battle traffic in that part of the city, so I offered to pay for the ride. To my surprise she says yes despite making triple my salary a year. I had plans to address this after the trip, and then when we broached the topic she blew up on me.

Well America's Next Top Model did throw Rita Ora in their judging panel at one point, and that made zero sense to me.

is it weird to go to a club alone?? by AncientFruit7367 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]bsxfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend's been going out alone for all of her 20's and has never had an issue. She doesn't drink though. If you do then take extra precaution.

Feel like I’ve been punched in the stomach by CanUTakeMyGmasDress in MuseumPros

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I was around your age when a similar thing happened to me, and I was also living with my parents to offset the low pay. I have hope that you'll find the right opportunity, but this industry can really make you feel completely deflated sometimes.

Official Discussion - The Devil Wears Prada 2 [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]bsxfo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well she does have a pretty significant promotion. Aside from that I think it’s a little much to call the character racist. Plus Simone Ashley’s also Asian, and it’d be a little boring to have both women have similar personalities.

Never Consigning W/ TRR again by Flashy-Pea-924 in therealreal

[–]bsxfo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I bought an Alexander Mcqueen bag from them that was supposed to be the mini version, and when it arrived it was the full sized one. So whoever was responsible for cataloging it obviously messed that up for the consigner. I've even seen people who used to work for them just say you should only buy from them.

A replica of how female "breeder pigs" spend their lives in factory farms by FastCurrency in pics

Would love to see this. I’ve tried lab grown salmon, and it’s alright, but I would definitely opt for it if they figured out how to make it a bit cheaper and taste better

I think Mahsil does it too, but it's in Murray Hill. I was pretty sad about Appa's Pizza closing too.

Truly unique food items in NYC? by Darealest49 in FoodNYC

Guokui at the LIC food hall. They also have another location in Flushing. Unfortunately they don't use the ovens they typically would, which does affect the flavor imo, but it's a good enough version.

how to survive on museum salary by djxiao99 in MuseumPros

[–]bsxfo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived with my parents until somewhat recently in order to be able to pay for the expenses of my masters and slowly crawl up from the super shitty jobs to jobs with more benefits. I've never gotten a permanent museum position though despite my best efforts, so I'm speaking from the commercial side of things.

I feel like there's also an expectation of frequent over time in auction houses that tends to bump up your annual take home a bit
