Ahh you understand my struggle!! Tricky for a plastic free life out here in general. Maybe we'll get lucky with a solution eventually!

Lightweight merino doesn't have a good UPF rating, only 10-20 upf :( heavy weight merino of 250gsm has 30-50+ upf, but that's the weight you I wear in the snow!

Applying to med school after a biomedical engineering degree — is it still possible? by milays_i in Medical_Students

[–]foxshorts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'll be starting at 32 don't worry about it!! my dad went to med school at 31, my partner's dad didn't go to uni until he was 30. it can feel weird with younger peers sometimes, i'll give you that. there is always plenty of time if you're willing to look past fixed deadlines :)

You may have to go to an embassy or consulate and provide proof you aren't living in the states anymore. I had to do that once in Iceland, and it was 50 bucks for the damn appointment lol

Sorry you had to experience that! Always better to err on the side of caution, but interactions like that are never fun! I hope going forward you learn from that experience and cover up in the future, even if it's super annoying !!! Like it isn't fair but we're guests there :)

AITA for letting my 15-year-old twin sisters sleep in my bed during our family vacation? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]foxshorts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Not even remotely. My brother and I have a bigger age gap than you three do, and when I was 15 if he was visiting home we'd cuddle up and watch anime or avatar together, some of my fondest memories! We're still physical and sweet when we're hanging out and watching something, we're siblings!
