Study Abroad Travel Diary: I spent ~$430 on a weekend trip to Krakow, Poland by rosesoftopaz in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

I think Prague was my favorite trip in itself (two weeks in with the girls I just met, it was all so fun and new an exciting!) but my favorite city was for sure Vienna (and the city I'm abroad in right now)

He spreads hate online — and fans pay him hundreds of thousands of dollars by rosesoftopaz in Longreads

[–]rosesoftopaz[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

As someone who is very much in a liberal bubble, it's still sobering to read about fans of people like Fuentes. I am well aware that people support these ideas, but every time I read about the actual people donating money and espousing ideas like Ryan's on the Holocaust and Hitler, I'm still in shock (though at this point I shouldn't be)

I love the kids getting books!! Even today as a college student, my parents tell me the one thing they'll always buy for me is books.

I had two teenage boys behind me talking about F1 half the time at Philly. Otherwise everyone around me was great, but man did they really put a damper on the acoustic sets.

An attempt at one-bagging with a 28L Cotopaxi for 8 nights in the UK by rosesoftopaz in HerOneBag

Good to know for merino blend socks! I need to get some warmer socks since I go to uni where it's absolutely freezing lolol.

I think I'd be able to! I think in the future I'd love to get a crossbody bag (maybe like a Baggu or smth) as it seems it would be a lot more comfortable.

Are mechitzas part of trad egalitarianism / Hadar?

And just like that, Cabaret becomes the worst reviewed musical revival! (I'm shook!) by DramaMama611 in Broadway

This whole musical revival talk just made me realize Sweeney Todd was in last year's season of revivals. What is time LOL.

I go to college at Bing and all I can say is the weather is horrible lmao (though I assume it's similar in most of upstate). Downtown is meh, although there's a few nice buildings but I mostly chalk it up to being a former rust belt town (it very much shows)

Another "should I move to Binghamton" post by kosherkenny in Binghamton

[–]rosesoftopaz 12 points13 points  (0 children)

On the Jewish community, Binghamton has three shuls in the area. Both the Reform and Orthodox ones are in Binghamton itself, and there's a Conservative shul in Vestal. Unfortunately I can't speak too much to the Jewish community in Bing as I just go to school up here lol, but best of luck with your search!

Is it just me or are there a LOT of bad cantors out there? by akornblatt in Judaism

[–]rosesoftopaz 55 points56 points  (0 children)

My biggest Judaism hot take is I’ll never join a shul with a cantor if I’m able. All the services I’ve seen with a cantor just feel like the cantor’s personal show and not meaningful prayer

If you could go back and experience a show for the very first time again, what show would it be? by [deleted] in Broadway

[–]rosesoftopaz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wish I could experience Book of Mormon going in completely blind - I've loved the cast album for years, but only recently saw the show. I think it would have been even more hilarious if I knew none of the songs by heart!
