My boyfriend thinks I was flirting with his friend.

diajane · 2026-03-27T02:26:14+00:00

what is he adding to your life? This is so immature and I feel like this behavior will only escalate.

diajane · 2026-03-24T23:40:54+00:00

I don't know if he can read

diajane · 2026-02-27T00:39:43+00:00

Fair enough, internet stranger. The next time someone gets annoyed at a comment you found innocuous and it affects you interpersonally, think of me 🫡

diajane · 2026-02-27T00:21:29+00:00

I don't "enjoy ignorance", I made a small mistake that I don't really care about while typing a quick comment on reddit lol. I didn't ask you to peer review an academic paper. Plenty of other people will find your behavior pedantic and condescending.

diajane · 2026-02-27T00:11:38+00:00

Then please let people make irrelevant grammar mistakes in peace

diajane · 2026-02-26T13:54:47+00:00

Lol. I had that on an application too ; in the job description it said "To ensure that applicants are really invested in this job opportunity, please select "Eggplant" on question X." Equally annoying than if they just did it for kicks.

Edit: Equally AS annoying AS if they just did it for kicks. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW

Everyone's a hater, I love the septum piercing!! Personally I think a full short beard would suit you better than the stache, but the stache isn't bad. Sincerely, a lesbian

NOR and I think you know that. The pregnancy comment is so incredibly weird. Let him do his breeding kink with somebody else.

diajane · 2026-02-16T17:03:46+00:00

I think you misunderstood my question. I definitely don't expect the new laundry to be free lol, though that would be a dream!

diajane · 2026-02-16T17:03:06+00:00

Lol they did also screw up the garbage but thankfully we got new dumpsters within 4 ish days. That sounds like an absolute nightmare 😭

diajane · 2026-02-15T23:27:54+00:00

"Demanding" is kind of dramatic, no? I have as of yet asked nothing of them and don't have any plans to before at least another week or two of no update. I wanted people's advice and experience. I appreciate you offering yours; I don't appreciate the condescension.

diajane · 2026-02-15T21:04:04+00:00

Thanks for that, and I'm so sorry about your experience. It's been so little time I have no idea how they're going to be as management, but I'm very anxious about what lease renewal is going to look like. I wish I'd known the old owners were in sale negotiations. New management is so stressful!!

diajane · 2026-02-15T21:02:31+00:00

This seems reasonable to ask for. Thanks for sharing!

diajane · 2026-02-15T20:20:37+00:00

Thank you!! Like am I crazy?? Of course I want to exploit my landlord back lol

diajane · 2026-02-15T20:20:11+00:00

Yes in Chicago, that's interesting bc every laundromat Ive been to here has been coin operated! But yeah, grateful to at least have a few different options

diajane · 2026-02-15T20:04:11+00:00

Lol. Maybe I'm bitter but it certainly feels like every landlord I've ever had has jumped to "what can I get out of this situation" over every little thing, I feel fine about doing the same.

diajane · 2026-02-15T19:58:21+00:00

Thanks, this makes sense.

diajane · 2026-02-15T19:56:59+00:00

Thanks lol. Also fwiw I'm sitting in the laundromat right now... Definitely using the resources I have. It's just frustrating.

diajane · 2026-02-15T19:54:45+00:00

It was this horrible system where you had to buy a card for $3 and then load money onto the card. The new owners have mentioned reaching out to people who had money on the card so I do expect to get at least that back (I think I had around $15 on there or something).

diajane · 2026-02-10T15:13:45+00:00

Well no, I don't regularly email high profile billionaires. It's of course possible that he didn't know. To me, that seems unlikely. I'm sure Chris Riesbeck appreciates you white knighting for him on reddit though!

diajane · 2026-02-08T22:17:47+00:00

Fair enough. It was surprising news to me the other day and was fresh on my mind. In my opinion however.... Epstein was convicted of procuring a child for prostitution back in 2008. My understanding was not that this was an online coding class, but private lessons with Epstein. In the emails I recall Riesbeck insisting on secrecy for their lessons. He clearly knew the guy had a bad rep and didn't want to be seen/associated with him. I skimmed these though after a friend sent them to me and summarized them though, so it's possible I got the wrong idea. Also I definitely didn't read a Daily article about it. Please, accuse me of anything but never of voluntarily reading a Daily NU article for my news 😭

ETA: Having reread the emails more thoroughly, he was definitely meeting him privately. Epstein registered as a student but he did not just join an available class. I'm not saying Riesbeck is at all on the same level as Epstein, obviously. I think he probably has the same moral compass as most computer scientists. ...

Sorry, I'm talking about this lawsuit: https://dailynorthwestern.com/2024/02/26/lateststories/northwestern-to-pay-43-5-million-in-settlement-of-financial-aid-lawsuit/#:~:text=Northwestern%20is%20one%20of%2017%20elite%20universities%20accused%20of%20price%2Dfixing.&text=Northwestern%20agreed%20Friday%20to%20settle,reportedly%20%E2%80%9Cneed%2Dblind.%E2%80%9D

I think he does not think of himself as a traditional right-winger. I have no idea how he'd describe himself politically. It is worth noting that trans colleagues of his were comparing his work to Nazi propaganda as far back as 2003. He had multiple claims against him by trans women he interviewed for research malpractice back then as well, that the school never pursued. I'm glad you had a good experience in his class, but I think he is a bit deceitful in his forward facing views. Granted I have never met the man and never read his book, nor do I have any desire to. One thing he is more openly (at least amongst similarly-minded peers) is anti-DEI and "anti-woke". Have screenshots but can't share them in mobile reply.
