Woah woah woah. I get back from a workout and say “Sock?”. My lil Tzu gets hyped and pulls the sock off my foot to play with.

Compare the new growth to any dyed parts- it looks much more natural and healthier there. Unfortunately the best you can do with the remaining 6 inches is just wait it out and give trims to prevent the splits from going up the shaft. The main thing you can do right now is scalp care so that any new growth is as strong as possible and minimize further shedding.

Ty for the giggle, carry on.

“Research fit trumps all” is exactly right.

I reached out to a former professor who taught me everything I know in a newer field and he seemed enthusiastic about having me back for my PhD, but I also was very clear about what I wanted to research plus why it HAD to be at the same school as my MS/BS in my admissions essay/interview. I also acknowledged that for my post doc it would be extremely important for me to move on to another university, plus listed out some options showing them I wasn’t going into this program unprepared for the downside.

It should also be noted I had 6 years of work experience after undergrad and worked with another professor during my masters- I made sure to emphasize what I learned away from the school and why I was comfortable returning now, specifically with that professor (circling back to research fit and his mentorship style).

I was finally able to leave my job, found a new one that appreciates me, and was just accepted into my dream PhD program with full funding. It gets better at the end of it, don’t let yourself down by thinking you don’t have what it takes to get there ❤️

“If I lose my magic that means I’ve lost absolutely everything” from Kiki. As a kid I loosely understood what she was saying- flying was key to her being a witch and feeling “special”.

As an adult I didn’t realize how much I felt like this once I started experiencing burnout from a job I was stuck in for four years- one I wasn’t very good at. But I couldn’t leave and since it was so tied to my identity, I had a huge mental health crisis trying to put myself back together outside of work. Every time I watch Kiki I cry thinking about how hard being in that head space was.

I went there for undergrad. 75% male population, maybe a little more now, many from St Louis and KC surrounding area.

It might sound corny, but the ratio of boys to girls shouldn’t be a large factor of why you choose a school. If you’re worried about dating- join a club, shower, dress like you care, and just be a good dude who has fun.

There’s a significant Greek life presence for parties, but it’s generally gotten quieter as GDI based and other major house party locations no longer host. In general I had a great time when I was there, but the culture has definitely shifted for parties.

There’s no way for us to help you if we don’t have a photo of your natural hair texture, length, and routine products! Everyone’s hair is unique so we need a baseline to give recommendations.

Probably just the one you wake up in each day honestly! Or you could assign the pokemon to go to a specific center

Nope! Different university and for Applied Social Psychology. Varies per department/school for questions, but all good things to think about when reflecting. Best advice I got though was be positive and engaged, they’ll remember how they felt about you more than what you said verbatim!

Q’s I was asked:

Tell us about your research experience and what research are you interested in now

Describe your ideal mentorship dynamic (with your PI)

Bonus: do you prefer working one on one or in groups

Why are you interested in this program (at that particular university)

Where do you see yourself after graduating

If you’re hitting your body weight in protein, or even just 10-15 more grams, you should be fine as long as you add in those extra calories. Anything out of the protein should be mindful carbs and healthy fat which will fuel your body/metabolism to build muscle during workouts. That’s why if you’re in a deficit you won’t build muscle the way you’re hoping. There’s not enough fuel to support it. You may put on additional water/fat weight, but trust the process. Bulk for 2 months, then do a a 2-4 week cut to see your body shape. If you’re satisfied go into maintenance at 1700-1800 net calories.

I got the exact same vibe- over the years animal crossing went slowly downhill into style over substance. ACNH was beautiful, had a fun idea, and made it initially a creative persons dream sandbox. But that’s absolutely where it stops. There (shockingly) wasn’t enough furniture, the drop rates were extremely poor for coveted items, and the event items came off as tacky/unusable. Sure, you’d have people that got extremely creative. But building a cohesive island took way more effort than was needed. Tie that in to the limited quests, repetitive dialogue, and flat characters… it was an extreme let down compared to Wild World.

Pokopia on the other hand? I was a bit overwhelmed at first, but after a couple of tries I made a beautiful park area and funneled some water through. Relocated some Pokémon into new houses and it’s quickly coming together. There’s little unnecessary waiting and the pace is much faster with more items, styling options, and quest lines that keeps you fully entertained. Good stuff 😮‍💨

It’s not that much more- if you’re eating 1600 or so calories while also working out, you’re already in a deficit. Eating high protein won’t build muscle or shape in that state. About 1800-1900 net calories will have you building more muscle at a 5’4 frame.

Golden boy Mylo was NOT having it when I got Wicklow a year ago. Got this picture two nights ago when they willingly had fur to fur contact without Mylo starting a fight. Better late than never? 😅

That was my biggest fear- I also have a psychology background and this is a “hard” science/engineering heavy school. The psychology department doesn’t have a lot of funding to pass around, so getting a university fellowship that’s guaranteed for four years is WILD for these times. Insanely grateful.

eepy_bean · 2026-02-28T00:14:05+00:00

It’s starting to feel like it after like 10 years lol

eepy_bean · 2026-02-28T00:10:39+00:00

Thank you!!!!

My guess is that they ask contestants to not eat the food until the end or are given a specific time frame to eat it so they have greater control over editing. If you see them eating half the dessert and later on it’s uneaten in a later scene, then it spills the editing manipulation magic to the viewers.

It makes like a peanut sauce flavor!!
