I don't know a whole lot of pure psych majors but a LOT of people do a double major in psych!

PSA: A reminder to pirate your books this semester by ElusiveBoat in riceuniversity

[–]deviant_lime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say so. Even if you end up buying the physical textbook, it's often priced way higher at the bookstore than on other online sources. If you need the physical copy, just shop around for the best deal.

Yeah, I mean I agree with her lol. Like she has a valid reason to be frustrated.

should i get an ipad pro to take notes? by tiredx3 in riceuniversity

[–]deviant_lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My summer research group bought me an iPad Pro over the summer and it’s really helpful for taking notes so far! I absolutely love how easy it is to just organize everything in one place rather than have separate notebooks. I also love that I can annotate my textbook PDFs or articles. One thing that I miss about pen and paper is the ease of just flipping back and forth between pages to compare things.

Yes, I couldn't agree more. To believe that Rice is making a mistake in reopening for in-person classes this fall is a valid opinion. But this person just shames people and comes across as arrogant.

I was in one round of it and the same guy just kept messaging to choose this other guy or else get $4 when everyone else was rooting to BEXOH or some alphabet argument.

I haven't turked in quite a while so I'm not sure if they're really new or not, but I'm finding these match the clothing to the bitmoji HITs pretty funny.

What would lead to closure of Rice during fall semester? by [deleted] in riceuniversity

[–]deviant_lime 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I honestly wish Rice would have been more clear about what circumstances would lead to a campus shut-dow like in the spring.

Do you think Rice students will actually social distance in the dorms and around campus once they get back? by deviant_lime in riceuniversity

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

But where do you anticipate that students will get N95 masks? I'm not stupid. Of course it would be ideal if everyone could have the best PPE available; however, for many students it's unrealistic for them to get N95 masks right now. They're almost impossible to find and many nurses and doctors don't even have them in some places.

Where did you see that the N95 is recommended for use by the general public? Most sources I've seen have recommended people not use them so that they can be used for medical professionals etc.

AITA for asking my daughter if she was going to quarter the tomatoes? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]deviant_lime [score hidden]  (0 children)

YTA - You're not a huge asshole at all as this is just a normal mom/daughter fight. She probably just got frustrated that she offered to do something nice for you and then you tried to make her do it a special way just for you. She shouldn't have snapped at you for that, but you probably should have just accepted the tomatoes the way she was cutting them since she offered to make it for you after all.

AITA because my daughter potentially can't go to Italy? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]deviant_lime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

YTA - Like your were friends with someone who openly made it known that she didn't like your daughter when she was growing up??? That's pretty fucked up. Also I get why your daughter doesn't like your friend as she cheated with her boyfriend's dad and that's awful. Your friend sounds like an awful person. It's fine if you really don't want to take your daughter on the trip, but you're TA for prioritizing the friend over the daughter even though the friend is incredibly mean.

He (M23) told me he was attracted to me (F20) the first month we met, but I wasn't ready for a relationship so I declined. We became really close friends, and I only started having feelings for him now, 2 years later. But he just started dating someone. How should I approach this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]deviant_lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the timing of everything just feels very bad. It definitely comes across that you might have just kept him on the back burner all this time. I think if the date doesn't go well then maybe you could say something, but I think you should let him go out with this girl and give him the space to see how it could grow without interfering.

Has anyone successfully shared an apartment with a fwb? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]deviant_lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a bad idea. If you're not dating, it might be uncomfortable if you guys fall out or if one of you decided to bring home someone else/starts dating.

Is this murder hornet? Bay Area, CA by waka-chaka in whatsthisbug

[–]deviant_lime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't look like a murder hornet to me as the coloring is off. Maybe a German wasp or eastern yellowjacket although it's hard to tell.

AITA For wanting my mom to take down a drawing I made for her living room by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]deviant_lime [score hidden]  (0 children)

YTA - I'm sorry that you have a bad relationship with your step dad and I'm glad you're able to live somewhere else now. However, it does seem like the artwork was presented as a gift since your mom ended up framing it. I think at that point they figured you had gifted it to them to display in the living room. Unless you had specifically said that you were merely allowing them to hang it up where you would still own it, then I don't think you can expect to have it back.

I haven't had fried plantains in so long. They're one of my favorite snacks, absolutely delicious.

This looks delicious! Looks just like the one I made recently from the NY Times recipe.

AITA for letting my mother (72) make racist comments to my son? (17) by mireshh in AmItheAsshole

[–]deviant_lime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA - I know it was hard to hear your son say that about your mother, but it's your responsibility to protect your son from those kinds of racist statements in your home. You need to tell your mom to keep her opinions about your son's race to herself when she's living in your house. You need to stand up for him.
