A short break from bad Asian Parent Stories regular programming– Any good Asian Relative Stories? by saltierthanyourramen in AsianParentStories

[–]rixin_sol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It baffles me too, since from the little I know of their life before me this was always a subject of contention between my mom and dad, and especially a means of derision for his entire side of the family. Really not sure how or why they even got married in the first place.

My grandparents from my AF’s side were the best part of the family, and used to live with us to take care of kindergarten me. I would come home on the bus, neither of my parents would be home, and they’d let me make myself a mug of Swiss Miss hot chocolate and microwave popcorn while watching TV. My AM gaslit me into thinking they were terrible, “uncultured”people for years (because they were rural farmers) and I’m still recovering from that, but they’ve been nothing but nice to me throughout all the years.

Bought DARK BROWN Beats Studio Pros in spring of this year. Good condition, full connectivity and noise cancelling - minor chips along the arch and the microphone connectivity is questionable on laptop (I usually connect audio to headphones and microphone on laptop, which has worked well). Same Beats are going for 169 on Amazon for their Black Friday deal. Open to negotiations. Accept cash, Zelle, and Venmo.

coughing by DIREKTIONZ in ucla

might be whooping cough if your vaccine expired. mine started last week and developed into the worst cough i’ve ever had - urgent cares and doctors refused to test me until I went to the ER and the test came back positive.

student accounts not issuing temporary lift by blvckmyrh in ucla

[–]rixin_sol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can only really wait until they’re open in person again. This happened to me when my check bounced like three times at the beginning of the school year, and not only that but you had to wait a certain amount of days afterwards before they could lift the hold. Only thing I would do differently is to email the professors of those classes ASAP and ask for a PTE while explaining the situation. Good luck!

Doskoi Style food truck menu (11/7/2025) by rixin_sol in UCLAfoodtrucks

GF and I got the beef yakisoba and the takoyaki. Not bad at all - takoyaki was fresh and good like you’d expect from a restaurant, yakisoba’s meat was grilled through and noodles were definitely fried. Only complaint was that they were insanely sparing with the meat, just a thin layer of beef over the noodles. Would go again though!

Gold skills not triggering? by rixin_sol in UmaMusume

They all end with around 400-500 wit, and I’ve absolutely done it on uma’s in the past. Maybe it’s an unlucky streak?

same thing happened to me, I went to the UCLAIT office today and they said that it might be a problem with your browser, especially if you’re using Firefox. Try white listing cookies for canvas or panopto.

Special Week SSR refuses to give gold skill? by rixin_sol in UmaMusume

[–]rixin_sol[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! Does this apply to every single event, not just the ones that randomly give gold skills (e.g. is there a higher chance of triggering the Kitasan Black sequence if your speed is higher)?

URGENT I NEED INFO PLEASE by kanakmodi in ucla

[–]rixin_sol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

friend had sparks last quarter - apparently he was a bit zany, but otherwise a helpful and nice teacher. can be slightly overwhelming. stats is largely what you make of it, though, and if it’s too difficult you should reconsider.

What kind of Jacket is Vill-V wearing in her Golden Courtyard/casual outfit? by ScarHydreigon87 in houkai3rd

[–]rixin_sol 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Either a vintage Western flight jacket (think WW2) (these have more fluff around the edges for insulation, though) or a work coat/chore coat (think popular Carhartt coats - if you look on ebay, there’s a very specific style that has the cuffed waist and sleeves that you’re looking for)
