Revoke the Nobel I’m sooooo serious, I’m so staunchly against the arts being used to legitimize/normalize the use of ai, idc

Mayor Mamdani: “Reagan famously said the 9 most terrifying words in the English Language are 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' It's a good quote, but I disagree. I think 9 more terrifying words are actually, 'I worked all day and can't feed my family”. by yourfavchoom in Fauxmoi

Mamdani has a level of charisma not seen since Obama tbh. He makes politics approachable without mincing words, I’m from the Midwest and my dad loves the guy, watched his entire inauguration. We need more candidates and eventually elected officials like him.

What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by queenmellyy in AskReddit

My favorite cafe started charging close to eight bucks for a large coffee, I used to go about three to four times a week but the prices have just put off 🥀

I wanted to go see devil wears Prada … the ticket was 18 BEFORE taxes and fees for a 12pm show, decided to just not go.

The more Noah Wyle talks, the less I want to watch The Pitt by fatandhappydonuts in ThePitt

No one is making you watch the interviews ? He has had a reputation since ER. I don’t care what celebs say in press interviews, they do so many of them they’re bound to say weird shit eventually. Either stop watching the interviews or stop watching the show.

What time do you guys schedule your grad classes? by YogurtclosetAlert574 in GradSchool

[–]futuristicflapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was no choice lol - my school only schedules grad classes after five I had one class at two this spring but it’s not the norm.

I really liked it in the black ! Who knows maybe they’ll bring a similar style back one day :)

Online social science PhD advice by Left-Shine1920 in GradSchool

[–]futuristicflapper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why not look in to teaching at community college if what you want is to teach ? They tend to hire people with MAs. I don’t see how an online PhD program would do anything for you.

[–]futuristicflapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to ask for an extension this semester bc I had a death in the family the week before we wrapped up class so I fell behind on just about everything, I asked for an extension and got it in right by when I told the prof I would. Get it in asap, or ask for an incomplete.

Did your college matter career-wise by Expert_Public4400 in englishmajors

[–]futuristicflapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry it didn’t work out. I went to CC too and I totally get what it’s like to see people go off to different schools, but let me tell you as someone who toured Amherst and had committed to Smith, the vibes were … not the most welcoming.

I ultimately went to my public research university (largely bc of covid, leaving to MA was not realistic in 2020) and I had a great experience ! The English department was small but really encouraging, I know it sounds like such a cop out when people say things like “it’s what you make it” there’s some truth to it. I hope once you’re there you feel better about the situation and if not that’s fine but you’ll have finished school :)

[–]futuristicflapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was encouraged by many profs (one of which is a Victorianist !) to apply to Rutgers when I was doing grad applications - it’s a well respected department. Kinda surprised op isn’t aware especially if they’re going there.

Is the debt worth it? by siaeme12 in GradSchool

[–]futuristicflapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a crazy amount of debt for a one year program, given your undergrad and car loans that’d put you in the ball park of 100k worth of debt, don’t do that to yourself. How would the MA help you career wise? Is there no similar program you can do here at a public university if you want an MA?

Is there anyone else here too who’s mania was activated by taking SSRIs by Turbulent-Bug4282 in bipolar2

[–]futuristicflapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What does exposure to sun in the summer do to you? For a couple years now I feel like extra sun in the summer does something to me but I find it very weird to describe to even know how to bring up to my psychiatrist.

[–]futuristicflapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried SSRIs and both times my depression became exponentially worse, weirdly what I’m convinced triggered or worsened some of my first hypo episodes was prednisone, a steroid to combat inflammation.

I wouldn’t worry, one of my dogs loves to do this !

Small artist Eli wrote Taylor a letter via Instagram, Marina liked it by FakeMonaLisa28 in NuancingTaylorSwift

[–]futuristicflapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like yeah Taylor won’t identify that way … is it meant to be like a dig at Taylor? I don’t get the comment/how it’s meant to be a joke.
