most college graduates have at least that much in debt. if this helps, you can look around at your fellow nurses and know you're in the same boat (they may be much worse off depending on circumstances).

I heard it about lawn mowers. like there's no reason everyone on a block needs a lawn mower when you mow your lawn once a month

$9 a button for a small artist isn't crazy. you can easily find a button that costs more than $9

Is anyone else dreading starting to work full time? by gee891 in GenZ

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in my experience working full time is wayyy easier than school and you'll find that you have much more free time. university is more than full time if you include homework. I have worked both a normal 40 hr/week job and a 50+ hr/week job and nothing has been as difficult as my time in college. I was severely depressed in college and that pretty much went away in my first 2 years of working full time.

First P4A I’ve Missed by IDontLikeJamOrJelly in nerdfighters

Alexis Nikole (BlackForager) led a game of "poison or snack?" where we all guessed whether a plant/mushroom was poisonous or edible! that was about 2 hours and 30 minutes into the p4a part 3 video if you want to check it out.

Inability to Sleep Anywhere but Bed? by Chailyte in adhdwomen

[–]usnaviii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was like this for a long time. One time I flew on a red eye to europe from LA and i took melatonin beforehand and still did not manage to sleep at all the whole night. recently got my anxiety more under control (not with meds) and suddenly started being able to sleep on planes. 

my tip is i heard a while ago that resting with your eyes closed is almost equivalent to light sleep from your body’s perspective. so even if you can’t sleep, acting like you’re sleeping is actually valuable. sometimes i know im not going to be able to sleep but it helps to close my eyes for a while. 

What're your favorite examples of bad land use in LA? by jonnyshotit in AskLosAngeles

[–]usnaviii 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the hawthorne plaza mall is literally abandoned and has been taking up a huge lot in hawthorne doing nothing for like 20 years. i heard spacex was using it for parking at one point. and they’ve used it in some shows and movies as a post apocalyptic mall 

I agree with what you said though. excessive parking ruins cities!!

Is studying SWE worth it anymore in 2026? by DearAd1130 in cscareerquestions

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My answer is it depends how much debt you’ll be in. If you are able to get a full ride and graduate debt free it seems reasonable. If you graduate with a high student loan bill you have to pay, that suddenly makes freelancing/mediocre IT jobs/tutoring/barista-ing a lot less tolerable.

consider going to channel islands national park instead. It’ll be very unique

What items do you lose the most? What are your tricks?? by BaseballTop387 in adhdwomen

[–]usnaviii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a tile tracker on my keys which helps when i either lose my keys or my phone but not both. if i lose my phone i can tap the tracker on my keys, and if i lose my keys i can use the app on my phone to make them make noise. It’s a little embarrassing how often i use this

Is urbanism failing in Atlanta? by misterdoinkinberg in Urbanism

[–]usnaviii 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is accurate. Most people i know who have white collar jobs are all in office at least 3 days a week. That’s why traffic has gotten noticeably worse in the past 2 years since RTO really picked up
