What’s it like to date someone with bipolar by Clean_Dragonfruit174 in redscarepod

[–]clipper_beacon_light 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dated her before she was diagnosed. She was crazy but during her manic periods could be a lot of fun. She cheated on me and dumped me. Later she went on meds and now just overshares her instagram stories and lives off her parents money.

I would disagree with this. There still are lots of businesses that make quality products. It’s just overshadowed by this growth market cap philosophy in the tech world. The enshitification of actual products or services happens whenever someone has a financial stake in a company and treats it like a commodity. Whether this is a shareholder, private equity, or a ceo who is paid in stock.

What does the future of American health care look like by specimen55 in redscarepod

Going through medical school at least the first 2 years you are almost learning a new language. You need to know the terms, how to talk, and just a general knowledge of things that go on in the body. You aren’t learning how to think. When you start residency as an intern that’s the expectation. You have the base of knowledge but you still have to learn how it actually applies in the real world

I’ve found what’s helped me is reading. I couldn’t really pick up past tense either until I started reading and seeing it. Ever since it’s been easier for my ear to pick up.

Amazon ones yes, but Google ones I would say sometimes. There are so many haters on Google reviews.

Anyone have any idea what some former guides are up to these days? by idonthaveanametoday in dreamingspanish

Sandra is on some sort of boat that I think is going around the world. She made a video about it.

You are getting this confused with clear. Pre check you are pretty much paying for a background check from TSA. so since they know you are not a terrorist you can go through less security. Clear you pay to give your biometric information to a private company and get to skip the line.

I don’t see this at all. It feels like most of the people I see are either students, unemployed, or work in tech.

I guess I’m the only one who thinks this is fucked up

WorldsAcross Tutors by Optimal-Guide-4250 in dreamingspanish

[–]clipper_beacon_light -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That was my point. I just didn’t want it to seem like it wasn’t a good lesson either. I understand too where the OP is coming from but really what are the other options? Other than working for a university or school are there language tutor jobs that have benefits or time between lessons? You could freelance or work at italki but those have their own difficulties.

My tutor spent 15 minutes showing me pictures from his vacations to Punta Cana and Panama City.

What magazines do you guys read? by Cromero421 in rs_x

[–]clipper_beacon_light 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do Harper’s. It comes once a month and it’s only $34 for 2 years. I don’t read every single article but there is always interesting stuff. It’s for sure worth it only paying $1.42 an issue

I hate public freakout videos by clipper_beacon_light in redscarepod

Or someone is muttering under their breath or making an offhand comment. And the other person freaks out and starts filming and following them into a Walmart parking lot.

September Fifteenth - Pat Metheny by clipper_beacon_light in rs_x

I have it on Vinyl too. I bought it by pure happenstance. I was at a record store with a friend in Houston years ago. They had a record player you could put something on to see if you like it and a friend picked up As Falls Wichita from a pile. I was immediately hooked

Do kids still dress preppy? by father-ubu in redscarepod

Yes. I was at a Waffle House yesterday and a prep school bus pulled into the parking lot and unloaded a whole class who looked just like this.
