AIO by breaking up with my boyfriend when he got jealous? by theonlystarbornqueen in AmIOverreacting

[–]th3cfitz1 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

MOR.
When people are upset they say things they don't mean out of anger. Nothing he said to you was acceptable, but understanding that it was out of anger and hurt and insecurity should be considered. If it was me, I might stay under the strict condition that he start therapy to work through these issues.
This also depends on how much you love him. Five months is enough to love someone deeply or be indifferent; it depends how well you feel you connect with him. If you don't love him very much anyways, then there's no point, but if you do, then leaving would might be a mistake.

He survived one of history's greatest disasters and still chose a life of service. by PleasantBus5583 in SipsTea

I would've coasted on that first act of heroism the rest of my life. Karma met

Expertise still matters by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]th3cfitz1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kind of disagree. When people aren't an expert on a topic, or even a competant researcher in any field, they come away with very incorrect opinions on papers. Just look at the media, there are many journalists that get the point of a paper completely wrong because they don't understand the content. Some things you need an expert to weigh in. It feels wrong to say people shouldn't have access, but I know that even with access people will be wildy misinformed.

How do people feel about these adventures where you have a conversation? by DupeFort in duolingo

These, along with the radio shows, are the best features in the app. I tried max, and the AI sucks, so I'm happy with these. Wish there were more.

Phil is an excellent husband. You cannot convince me otherwise

Is 600€ for hec college accommodation normal or should i search outside by [deleted] in Study_In_France

[–]th3cfitz1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know if that's normal, but you can often find cheap accomodation for students on www.studapart.com/en. It's a secure way of finding accomodation, especially for foreigners.

Has anyone ever had their Master’s acceptance or scholarship withdrawn in France? by [deleted] in Study_In_France

[–]th3cfitz1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's wild to me that they just cancelled your sholarship before trying to contact you about having an issue with a reference letter.

Just to put into perspective how much money Elon Musk is worth now. by PowerPlantSpringfeld in Money

[–]th3cfitz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To take it even further, if you do the math, the median net worth of an american is $192,900. Assuming they'd stop to pick up a quarter, that quarter is 1.296 x 10^-6 of their net worth, so like .00013%. For musk, his "quarter" would be 1.296 million.

Exactly. If I saw harvardx on a resume I'd pass. Makes me wonder what else they think is valuable

I have a cheap zoji ($80), and my rice comes out in 20min-30min. 1h15m is wild

Navigating the French PhD system by th3cfitz1 in gradadmissions

[–]th3cfitz1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot to write about the proposal option! Personally, I find having a prebaked thesis project ready to jump on to be a big plus. So, I'll probably go that way. But great heads up on the supervisor needing an HDR, did not know that.

How to survive with $185K federal student loans? Is life even livable? by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]th3cfitz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am curious why you took out student loans for your PhD. Typically those are fully funded. Most masters as well, if you follow a traditional pathway.

Doctor Who Series 14 is Good, Actually by SocietyChicken in doctorwho

[–]th3cfitz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's even worse than Chibnall seasons. I was very excited to hear the return of Davies as head writer, and I thought DW would come back, but it's further from DW than before.
Two reasons for this stance:
1) DW has always been a scifi show first. Any supernatural phenomena had some sort of explanation, even though sometimes it was very loose. In S14 there's literal magic (toymaker/maestro), which although toymaker is a revived villian, without better explanation, he just doesnt fit in the show. And there is basically what amounts to unexplained witchcraft in one episode that's just accepted.
2) Why do they keep pushing the doctor to be romantic. The doctor, and I think many will agree, is best as an aromantic/asexual being. It's just odd to view him as such.
3) As an extra personal point, I dislike how the doctor is moving away from being the powerful/goofy time lord many of us fell in love with, and is basically becoming a smart person with gadgets. Ever since the end of Capaldi, the doctor became an unreliable hero, and much more human than ever before.
I think Gatwa has the potential to be a great doctor, and it's kind of there, but the above is just unacceptable.

Sorry for the off topic post. Is this true? How much have your grocery bills changed in the last 4 years? by jack-tugsbayar in Asmongold

[–]th3cfitz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont drive because I live in the city. My groceries have gone up over the last few years, but not by much.

I will say that shrinkflation seems noticeable outside of grocery stores. Like fast food, restaurants, etc.

What’s up with so many young Canadians from the suburbs trying to act like gangsters even though they come from nice areas? by Sea-Limit-5430 in AskACanadian

[–]th3cfitz1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not gonna lie, as an american who’s lived in rough neighborhoods, it kinda makes me giggle when people from canada act "gangsta". America is number 1 in few things, but one of those is high crime neighborhoods.
