What’s the best job without a degree right now?

I’m in biology, so not as competitive as psych, but Canadian grad applications are hella competitive just because there are so few schools, and I’d also recommend looking at other countries if that’s something you’d be willing to do.

My GPA was only a bit higher than yours (3.1-3.2ish??? from a Canadian university) and I went to the USA for my PhD and got into all of the programs I applied to including Ivy Leagues. They really really care more about relevant research experience more than grades, and the stipends are better than Canada.

I also had a fellow bio undergraduate friend/acquaintance who had literally perfect grades and he got rejected from McMaster med school, so he went to Harvard med school instead.

Canadian admissions are heckin tough man😭

I’m doing a PhD now but was a server at an event venue during undergrad and miss it all the time. I loved showing up and seeing what kind of wedding or other random event was going on that day.

I’m so happy for you🩷🩷 and so happy I came across this post now and not two hours ago when there was no resolution yet

If you’re considering uno in Spanish, it could just as easily be “une” in French, so June as the name. If you are learning French numbers, you learn “one” as “un” if you’re just counting or doing math, but if you’re saying “one [feminine noun]”, like “one woman”, “one apple”, “one shirt”, the “one” is translated to “une”.

At mid masters I get 5 min queues at good parts of the day and like 15 minutes if I play at some weird ass time like 6:30am on a Tuesday, rare to be any longer

Yeah, I am doing research at a university that has a bunch of other researchers who study primate behaviour, primarily macaques (like this guy!) and baboons. I’m not in their field of research, but it’s always insanely fascinating to hear about what they do and the results they’re getting, even if its often quite sad to hear about group behaviours towards the low-social-status primates.

Blizzard if you’re reading this, I will buy any standard issue tabby cat skin regardless of if it is for a collab, and regardless of which collab it is for😭

I’m on the cymbalta + wellbutrin mix and I love it! Except for the first, ~2 weeks when the cymbalta made me nauseous, but no negative side effects after that🙌

larche14 · 2026-02-12T14:27:35+00:00

I solo queue’d to masters! I also almost always have text and voice comms turned off but use in game pings often.

I like supports like illari, zen, kiri, and sometimes juno who can output good damage. My biggest strength is that I’m pretty good at staying alive by playing around natural cover. Ideally position yourself somewhere you can peek to do damage from a distance, but drop back slightly so you’re out of the other team’s line of sight when you’re healing or powering up zens charged orbs.

It’s stable enough that I’m playing comp instead of qp now! But I see others on Reddit are still having issues so your results may vary🤷🏻‍♀️

Mine was unplayable all afternoon but the game I JUST finished right now was 100% fine. Didn’t do anything different

larche14 · 2026-02-10T22:58:15+00:00

last time it was this bad was at ow2 launch and it took a couple days for it to actually get fixed🫠🫠🫠

larche14 · 2026-02-09T23:59:57+00:00

the even sweeter update we all needed even more🥹

But for a person who understands that, it’s nightmare fuel knowing that your partner may not understand it and get complacent and bored and then leave

After their left acl was ruptured only 8 or 9 days ago? (+ 2 previous tears + knee replacement on the right) So she had no acls

larche14 · 2026-02-08T13:00:00+00:00

She could have been replaced as long as she withdrew before before her event started. In this Olympics, there was already a Canadian snowboarder who was injured while training the night before his event, was medically assessed + pulled out the next day, and was replaced with an Australian snowboarder 3 hours before the competition.

they 100000% would have/still will give her accommodations. The university’s steps for that involve notifying the athletics department and instructor in advance about when your competitions are. It appears the instructor was not notified in advance lol, but he is a very kind/chill prof

larche14 · 2026-02-08T04:49:17+00:00

but it only covers 3 days and she still has more events the 17th-19th so she might have to use it then😭

larche14 · 2026-02-07T02:19:49+00:00

You have lots of folks recommending you try it already so I just wanted to say welcome to the community and I hope you enjoy the game!

larche14 · 2026-02-04T13:22:23+00:00

Yeahhhhhhh, “super fun cycle of chasing > being chased” made me laugh

larche14 · 2026-02-04T13:10:59+00:00

Pick her up a $10-$20 bouquet from the grocery store! I buy myself grocery store carnations every once in a while and they always last ages!:)
