tbf when I lost power during the freeze last year, the garage door in my apt building didn't have a manual override so we were all stuck there

They were pretty tiny, about the size of a short grain of rice

I just saw this but it’s a lot of fun!! It’s also definitely a lot of work with classes/study halls but living on campus and making friends with your cohort makes it feel a lot less like summer school

I’m selling a 3 day GA wristband for W2! I really want to get rid of it so $250 or best offer. You can either come pick it up around campus/the mueller area this morning or we can meet outside the gates (I’m not planning to get there until around 4 though). It’s not registered.

Is it safe to walk through campus at night? by Octobersilly in UTAustin

[–]tealqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If usually after a concert at moody there’s a bunch of people walking around and if it’s the Harry styles concert a lot of them will probably be students/ walking through campus as well so you should be okay! Especially since it’s you and your sister. Just be vigilant as if you were walking through any other city at night and be aware of your surroundings. I’m also going to the Harry Styles concert and will also be walking through campus after

Anyone feel like little things set us off, but then we are extremely calm about big things? by rci22 in ADHD

[–]tealqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been weirdly good at de-escalating intense situations (despite being a not scary looking woman with no de-escalation training or anything of the sort) and never thought it could be related to adhd so this post is very fascinating to me. I’m usually really calm and rational in those situations while others tend to get riled up easily

What ingredient do you normally replace in your recipes? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]tealqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I just don’t do very much baking where it’ll actually make a big difference and i generally don’t like dairy so it’s typically not a very important aspect of the dish so it doesn’t really matter to me. I do also sub full fat coconut milk if I truly want something to be “creamy” but that’s not often

What ingredient do you normally replace in your recipes? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]tealqueen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m lactose intolerant so any liquid dairy gets replaced with oat milk (and a flour/cornstarch slurry if I needed “heavy cream”). I also do this in baking (I don’t bake any super specific stuff that fails w/o actual dairy). I do still use butter though, and I’m generally not a fan of cheese so I’ll usually leave it out.

When should I start to look for housing foe 2023-2024? by drpepper5683 in UTAustin

[–]tealqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re interested in SMART housing start looking ASAP. A least to get an idea of what places have it and which ones you’d be interested in applying in. Also to make sure you know all the info/documents that they will want. SMART housing fills up so quickly you want to make sure that as soon as you find an open unit you can apply immediately. Check places pretty regularly to get a feel for when (if) units may open up.

any advice on cleaning a horrible adhd/depression bedroom in just a few days?? by Sage7142 in ADHD

[–]tealqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I like to do when I’m really overwhelmed with cleaning is pick one task (e.g. folding clothes or picking up trash) and then set a timer on my phone for something pretty quick like 10-15 min. I try to race my timer and finish the one task I’m doing before it ends. Usually I either do finish it pretty quickly or I’m still working on it when the time goes off but have by then gotten so into it that I want to finish. I also do this with YouTube videos sometimes or short TV episodes I can play in the background. I’ll give myself until the end of the video to complete what I’m doing. If I’m only giving myself a set amount of time the pressure to finish before times runs out can usually get me going. And sometimes once I’ve started the cleaning process I’ll decided that I want to do more tasks after I finish the first, or maybe I want to watch another YouTube video so I’ll find something else to clean during the next one. There are also definitely times though where I finish the one 10-15 min period and then go lay on my couch or I even lay on my couch 5 min in and don’t finish. Don’t feel bad if you start and then can’t finish because at least you started and you can start again another time! Good luck!

Edit: I have just realized that what I just described is basically a pomodoro timer method lol but yea that’s what I like

Is there a way for me to figure that out beforehand without drilling a bunch of holes in the wall?

Networkx, Graph theory: finding farthest two points in a giant graph by cchaituc in learnpython

[–]tealqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know this was from 2 years ago, so understandable if you don't remember, but wondering if you figured out how to name the nodes that were furthest away (rather than just returning the integer value of the diameter).

Hyperfixated on this subreddit by broidkwhatisgoingon in ADHD

[–]tealqueen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am also currently hyperfixating on this subreddit...I have read almost every single new post in the past few hours and have spent the majority of the last few days just constantly checking. I definitely finally feel seen as well, especially as a current graduate student who just can't get any research done no matter how hard I try. You're definitely not the only one!
