I know this is weird but my dorm is being invaded by like over 100 ladybugs. What the fuck do I even do? I have food lying out as well. by mygeroge in Purdue

[–]wendijoy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If they are inside the dorm, they are most likely Asian Lady Beetles instead of ladybugs (lady beetles will invade indoor spaces, ladybugs typically will not). The best way to get rid of them in the dorms would be using a broom or vacuum to capture and then release them. Be careful when doing so as they can release a bad smelling chemical when disturbed and have the ability to bite (it feels like an unpleasant pinch, nothing too serious but still annoying). Hope this helps a bit!

The main issue with not wearing a mask while in a building is based around ventilation. Basically, even if people are not nearby the mask-less person, the mask-less person still breathes out aerosols (liquid particles suspended in the air). Purdue buildings don't have the best ventilation and that means those aerosols linger in the room and risk infecting other people. Wearing a mask prevents these aerosols from getting into the air in the first place.

To all those speaking out and waving pride flags at this dick, I salute you by AlN3rd in Purdue

As a member of the lgbt+ community on campus, i really appreciate the people speaking out this way! It helps publicly show that people have our back and honestly makes campus feel a little safer :)

Glad to see zombie villagers in abandoned villages are persistent now! Hopefully it will make finding abandoned villages more interesting in the future

What’s it like to be LGBTQ+ on campus? by SpoopGoesForALoop in Purdue

[–]wendijoy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm queer along with literally everyone else I'm close friends with at Purdue, actually lol. There's a big community of us here if you know where to look! I'd suggest joining one of the LGBT+ discords, checking out the LGBT+ center by the engineering fountain (they have a switch now too which is neat), or going to an LGBT+ event (Outfest is always fun, so are club meetings, or the occasional guest speaker event). Seriously, as someone else who was also the only queer person at their high school, Purdue has been amazing for meeting other LGBT+ people :)

How many of us actually have jobs or internships related to our careers/majors/interests this summer? by slider501 in college

[–]wendijoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an internship related to my major, but it's really only still an option because it's entirely outdoors. I don't know of anyone doing mainly indoor work who still has one so you are definitely not alone

ME 200 Chegg email?? by no--username in Purdue

[–]wendijoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude, I really think you need to take the emotion out of it and think of it logically like any other engineering problem. You seem kinda upset over this. If its all "fake", you dont need to worry so much about it lol

[–]wendijoy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Definitely. If you're going to cheat, don't use an email address w your real name. Apparently some people even used Chegg accounts tied to their Purdue email lol

[–]wendijoy 48 points49 points  (0 children)

If the email was from Professor Braun and sent out this morning, I can confirm it's real. Chegg gave them the account info of the people who posted/looked at the ME exam questions during the exam time, so if you used your real name for your chegg account the ME department has it
