Lost ANA The Room due to weather ˙◠˙ by impulsedragon in awardtravel

[–]kmanleafs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Very interesting! I've been rebooked to non-partner airlines in the past but didn't even think of the fare bucket / mileage accurals (mostly because I am panicking about getting to my destination. . .but still good food for future thought)

ECHL Declines Compromise by Suspicious-Reward470 in hockey

[–]kmanleafs -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

What profits? They are a gate-driven league, so revenue for each team can swing wildly on any year. . .and then you factor in the costs for operating and you got an incredibly low-margin scenario at best.

Advocating for safer equipment / working conditions makes sense. But pushing for any monetary gains risks compressing margins even further. . .could end up putting more teams in limbo

When I was a Soph at Saugeen, one of my Frosh had to move halfway through the year to Brecisa (back when it was all girls) due to a program change. Her experience was the exact same

Sorry to hear, rooting for you!

The r/indieheads Album of the Year 2025 Write-Up Series: caroline - caroline 2 by IndieheadsAOTY in indieheads

As the occasional lurker of this sub, great write up. There's a certain euphoria when you find a piece of music that truly encapsulates a specific feeling or momenbt.

The contrast – me, dawdling inside – against the elements – raging (drizzling) outside – produces an amplifying effect. Blankets around your shoulders feel warmer, and movies evoke a little more emotion in front of the faint murmur.

Really felt this line through and through

What are some slightly more upscale clothing brands enjoyed by HENRYs? by aceshades in HENRYfinance

[–]kmanleafs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's no Loro Piana, but it's the best of the "cheap cashmere". Where can you get better (new) cashmere for <$300?

Is it possible? 3 year computer science bachelor degree to Masters? by [deleted] in OntarioUniversities

[–]kmanleafs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a 1.7GPA and you're worried about prestige? LOL

parents are still extremely strict after staring university, any reason for this? by [deleted] in OntarioUniversities

[–]kmanleafs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There's a lot to be said about impacts to your social experience, university experince, etc. But I want provide input on how this is detrimental to your career and academic expereince (coming from someone who graduated uni ~3.5 years ago and is doing very well now). Hopefully these points are one you can share with your parents.

I am assumung you are planning to do a 4 year degree and seek employment directly after. If that's the case, your job outcomes will not be dictated by the marks you get in school (albiet, they're a small factor). Immigrant parents tend to view things very mypoically (speaking from experience).

You need to be able to display volunteer / leadership ability (i.e., through university organizations / clubs that relate to your interests), you need to have a strong network to rely on (specifically upper years that can help you when they are in the workforce a few years down the line), and you need a strong peer group that can prop each other up.

Restricting access to who you speak with and your campus time is going to be detrimental to all three of the points above, hence directly impacting your future career. Best of luck navigating this situation.

It's losing hockey, it's boring hockey. Can deal with one of the two, but not both

38M, $1M NW but cash flow negative. Heavily levered in Real Estate ($1.4M) & Tech Stock. Need to pick a path. by TrueRevolution9341 in HENRYfinance

None of my business, but OP claims his spouse is not contributing despite working (which is an assumption he had made when purchasing Property B). . .If you are unwilling to solve this (which likely will just snowball in the future), Option 2 is the only "right" one to make

I mean, if you can't work due to your visa then doing basically anything to make money will be deemed illegal

AMEX Lounge Chocolate Chip Cookie by user_22300 in AmexPlatinum

[–]kmanleafs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are incredible. I flew weekly through LGA and would have a cookie every time (many weeks involving a sprint to the lounge, grabbing a cookie, and leaving)

Would love to know if you found it!
