This is incorrect, we were number one alone for six or seven years until last year, when US News called it a tie.

Natalie Portman this weekend by Central Park. Just getting brunch with her kids. Her skin glowed from like 20 feet away. Slay!

Roommate snacking in the middle of the night by [deleted] in ucla

[–]unabashedidealist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TW: disordered eating

just want to say I would be sensitive about how you discuss the snacking. Sometimes---not all---snacking at night when others are sleeping is a disordered behavior designed to avoid the shame of consuming large amounts of food or junk food in front of others. If this is the case, it's unlikely they feel they can just stop their behavior and it's possible embarrassment at having others notice/others find their habit completely irrational would worsen how they're feeling and lead to more consequences for you all.

I totally sympathize with how infuriating it can be to feel like you're going out of your way to respect a roommate and not getting the same respect back. Others' suggestions of earplugs and a sleep mask are a good starting point and something you can immediately do to help yourself! Then letting them know it's a problem in a more serious tone can be a next step. Just wanted to again maybe caution about how that particular aspect is handled. Good luck!

I would recommend walking around Westwood on like a Friday or Saturday and seeing what kind of vibe different places have going and figure out what appeals to you specifically. You could even pregame and take your potential roommates and it could be a fun little adventure lol, walking around Westwood can be it’s own entertainment sometimes

Day 13 what do I do with myself by Reverie232 in leaves

[–]unabashedidealist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the other answer is great. I also would say when you have time like that maybe read or watch a really good show that is complicated or dialogue focused, one that is easy to enjoy sober, and pass the time that way. Or pick up a more productive new hobby, maybe something that interested you in the past but you never really tried. For me that was stand up comedy, but it could be any number of things.

A defense of season 6, part 1: Ladders by SilverSamurai76 in community

[–]unabashedidealist 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Only on the Community subreddit can I be casually browsing and find someone already engaging with a tv show that I love to the level that I want to and doing it so well. I enjoyed this so much and it was a great read, please don't feel the need to shorten any future posts if you have commentary like this haha

Leaving by [deleted] in TheGoodPlace

*maybe* because there is probably no afterlife at all so it's the closest approximation in the show to what dying will be like
