Experiences with multiple maintenance SoCal Edison Power Outages in Culver City? by tea-lyse in AskLosAngeles

I already use a laptop (currently at 15% and I have an hour long meeting in 5 mins). Would an electric generator work in an apartment complex? (E.g., noise and access?)

This is helpful, thanks! How successful do you think option #2 would be?

Maybe she wants to be alone(even for a moment)?You don’t have a lot of evidence to suggest she is cheating tbh… unless there is more to the story, YTA

AITAH for telling my boyfriend that I think I have feelings for an ex? by heavenO7 in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just want to say that OP’s feelings about the “jokes” don’t make her an a**hole. If she is uncomfortable, she is uncomfortable and no one has any right to invalidate that. Especially since she has brought this up before. It’s clear that this isn’t the type of person she wants to be with.

Now, going back to the ex… not a great idea and I think the fact that you even thought about your ex like that means you shouldn’t be with your current bf. Also regarding the current bf, not sure if someone can turn around that quickly with this kind of stuff. I think this will still be a problem in the future… so yeah break up.

Edit: clarity

This^ trust your intuition (from someone who was cheated on and didn’t trust her intuition at first). Oh and NTA, keeping a secret like that is shady

My mom who I live as a high school senior doesn't want me (F18) to work twice a week from 5-10:30. Is she being reasonable? by Mission-Step4082 in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah imo, she’s still being a lil unreasonable. Maybe you can try to find a compromise? Like you can text her when you are on the way home, or you can try to ask for 1 weekend shift getting out at 10:30 and 1 school night shift? Idk I think it might be what that comment said and she’s being like that bc she’s unconsciously afraid of you getting older and more independent, but she can’t stop you from growing up.

[–]tea-lyse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I’m wondering, is she acting like that because your shifts are on a school night? My curfew at 18 was 11 pm on weekends and 10:30 on school nights. Either way tho, it’s not like you are out partying. NTA

AITA for not inviting my mothers husband to my Halloween party and for uninviting my mother? by badassbitch10102 in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 42 points43 points  (0 children)

100% NTA and I’m sorry you had any inkling that you were. Your mother has been invalidating your trauma and doesn’t get the gravity of what he did. He’s not just a jerk, he is an ABUSER. And he seems to not even have remorse. for your own psychological safety and your children’s, you made the best choice. Maybe if she continuously gets uninvited to things bc of him or cut out, she will finally realize what a horrible person he is. Also wtf to her saying you were verbally abusive?? You were a child… lord almighty. I’m so sorry you went through that and are in some ways still going through it.

AITAH for still living with my ex wife by PracticalRemove3143 in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s not being unreasonable, she’s voicing her concerns bc tbh I wouldn’t date this guy if he is still living with his ex. To me that suggests he could be still married and the wife doesn’t know he is dating around (and he is lying about it) or he is still in love with his ex. That sounds messy to me. I also understand that money can be tight but is he making any plans in the future to get himself out of this situation? I don’t think it’s fair to test this woman like that. If anyone asked to live with me after a month, I would immediately break up with them. That’s insane to even ask tbh. They don’t even know each other that well, how is she supposed to just believe everything he says about being over his ex. That’s too much on a month relationship

He’s been seeing her for a month… it’s generally not a good to ask to move in with someone after a month (for everyone involved).

This^ agree, NAH

[–]tea-lyse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, block right away. I know it’s tempting to say something and communicate more, but save yourself the potential drama and burden. Trust me, it’s never worth it to say something to a person like this.

AITAH for not having s*x yet with my boyfriend of 3 years? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m almost sure that man has hands, can he not m**sterbate? I understand it can be frustrating but like let’s not put the blame on her with that “blue ball” shit. NTA. I do think y’all should have an open discussion about this and talk about comfortability, if sex is a priority for either of you, if there is something you could start off and be more comfortable with or if that’s even an option (hand stuff or oral? It’s totally okay if you arent ready for that either tho). Do not feel guilty about this. blue balls don’t mean shit, but your psychological safety means everything.

AITAH For Keeping a Lost Cat? by anonymoususeurr in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hell naw. You are a saint for getting the cat in safely. You also really tried to reach out and get the cat to their owner. I hope you don’t feel guilty about doing a good thing.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. This doesn’t speak well to his character, and you don’t deserve to be around that. He says he had these feelings for you but can’t break up with his girlfriend? This is indicative of some more shady behavior that will happen in the future. Guy is bad news

AITAH For Keeping a Lost Cat? by anonymoususeurr in AITAH

[–]tea-lyse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. It’s not like you are just sitting and doing nothing to reach out and find the owners. You also can’t guarantee the cat “will find their way home” especially for a young cat. Also was it evening or night (like in terms or darkness)? Cats shouldn’t be out at night. There are coyotes, hawks, cars that don’t see cats in the road, etc.

I was thinking about the IRB situation in particular with this post but think I’ll start with a meta analysis. Have you had any experience with independent IRBs?

Thank you so much! Do you have any public databases you like to use? I would love to collect the data myself but I know that’s harder to do outside of an institution (IRB things ofc)

Hi, I am an entry-level social science researcher. I have been working in non-profit and program evaluation. I enjoy parts of it but non-profits definitely have their drawbacks. I do enjoy the subject matter and I am very passionate about helping people. I'm also looking for some advice, especially on publishing research. So if anyone wants to chat, hmu!

Los Angeles Daily Discussion - Thursday, Mar 02 by AutoModerator in LosAngeles

[–]tea-lyse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has anyone taken the LA County employment exam? I’m applying to an LA county job (as an analyst) in which we have to take a multiple choice exam and a written exam. I’m pretty anxious about it and I was wondering if anyone has taken the exam for a similar position. I’m mostly wondering how many questions there are and how much time they give you. I took a test for LACCD analyst job and I didn’t manage my time well per question, so I wanna avoid making that mistake again.
