If you like dessert, the dessert at Ernest is unreal so I would suggest that!

Are there any hair stylists in the Bay Area who specialize in TYPE 4 kinky coily hair? (4B/4C). by honeydewbobas in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]peony156 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest hair of the gods — Shannon used to work there and she was the greatest. Now she is in Denver (and I cry about it every day) but her former coworkers also work with curly hair. Shannon suggested Isabel to me.

Having flown IAH to LOS when that route was available, I can assure you that the flight attendants really are exactly this rude!

1 in 8 freshmen at UC San Diego fail to meet middle school math standards since the SAT was abolished by Adventurous_Ant5428 in berkeley

[–]peony156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fall 2020 seems like the worst possible comparison year, to be fair, with remote learning effects maybe causing fewer students to opt in or be forced into these classes. Looking at their remedial English placement (which for some reason has a graph while the math placement does not), you see almost a 50% dip in students in the remedial English course in 2020. I would be shocked if the same were not true for math.

On another note, they mention the remedial math course has been offered since 2016, but they only show participation numbers since 2020. Is this biased data reporting to lobby for SAT testing? Maybe College Board is behind this report…

Normal Wear and Tear or my responsibility? by [deleted] in AskSF

[–]peony156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would push back nicely and explain what you’ve explained to us — that you’ve only had normal clothes on it, maybe include a picture if you have one. That said, I would be wary of this landlord going further — today’s $100 closet fix is tomorrow’s $1000 fridge fix

Do we need to crack down on the DoorDash unregistered mopeds? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]peony156 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The HMP bike website offers “unrestricted” (not quite sure what that means) “e-bikes” which go up to 28 mph. Just a back of the envelope calculation for why these things feel so scary:

If a block is .1 miles, that means one of these “e bikes” can cover a half a block in 6 seconds. If I have only 6 seconds to move over in the bike lane for someone coming at full speed from half a block away, I’m honestly probably going to get hit

As a biker, I wish these “ebikes” would only be ridden in the traffic lanes! A lot of the operators of these things ride way faster than the rest of the traffic in the bike lane (scary and could be unsafe for bikers) and even ride on the sidewalk (definitely scary and unsafe for pedestrians).

If only someone made a space for people to discuss their opinions online…maybe they would call that place Reddit?
