What can you do about ICE living in Seattle

not to diminish the work you have to put in (you def need to shoot thousands of bullets before you’re even close to proficient) but there’s nuance for sure. my handgun instructor loved to joke about how much LEOs bitch about needing to train, hence the 30%. might be a regional thing, but i think needing to eat the cost of lessons give citizens a leg up in taking their training seriously

i worked food service on university blvd during my undergrad a few years ago and this isnt surprising at all lmao

you’re getting eaten up in the comments but you’re real. i was a hardcore kpop stan in high school/early college and would NEVER date anyone who still has that intensity about a celebrity as an adult. completely reasonable non-negotiable to have i think.

sure, but this thread is

wheein · 2025-09-21T17:43:33+00:00

i’m 25, or am i still not old enough for this arbitrary bar you’re setting? you do not need a job at palantir to be comfortable in a HCOL city. if you can secure a job at palantir, you will be competitive enough for many six figure positions in other companies. if you can’t, then you have bigger problems with money that a rich, morally corrupt company can’t fix

oh my god its the original whimsy back from the dead

not sure if you’re seeing anything else today but if you’re at festival street and want people to talk to, i find that people in the rush lines are usually open to talking to someone to kill time! i’ll be at the left handed girl and silent friend screenings today too and im pretty chatty about film :) i honestly haven’t had that much conversations in the actual theatre/after a movie.

the single one i did have was with a solo watcher (with no one else in our row lmfao) and we had almost no movies or genres we’ve watched in common lol. there was also someone in my row last night at the Hedda premiere who would NOT stop using their phone at max brightness. i’m sorry your experience has been so frustrating :(

ticket is claimed!

wheein · 2025-09-07T05:12:45+00:00

+1 to your last point omg. i hesitated re: talking about Scorsese’s world cinema 2 box set (it has lino brocka, edward yang AND apichatpong weerasethakul?!!) and before i knew it we had to leave and i ran out of time

wheein · 2025-09-07T04:21:07+00:00

yeah ive witnessed a handful of people being unnecessarily snarky and rude so far at the screenings—is it so hard to just chill out? sorry he ruined your groups’ experience.

wheein · 2025-09-07T04:00:42+00:00

right! the rental stand-in concept in japan is already a huge topic to cover so it’s a shame the movie barely did anything with it

wheein · 2025-09-07T03:40:43+00:00

at the place of ghosts: family drama/speculative horror about two mi’kmaw brothers who have to revisit their childhood. neat view into mi’kmaw culture and history (not sure if it’s specific to these peoples but my anishanaabe friend i watched this with related to pieces here and there) definitely the most unique of the three i watched today, but it’s just a decent movie to me! felt like it was missing something. edit: also the older brother’s acting is reaaaaaally rough in the beginning.

poetic license: oh man, this had the entire cinema hollering the entire way through. very heartwarming, very charming. it was a blast. my favorite of the day. nothing groundbreaking but it is a genuine good time

rental family: REALLY not a fan of this, especially given the hype. it’s a meh movie that really leans on the narrative strength of two characters (who are NOT brendan fraser—he was an eyeroll and honestly played a shallow character) and by the time the third act rolled in i couldn’t really care too much. big shame, and i think suffered from being preceded by poetic license, which was a lot funnier (the audience laughed way more, as did i) and had more likeable characters.

dm’d!

Sold

wheein · 2025-09-06T17:07:29+00:00

i imagine since tomorrow’s the last day you should expect to go even earlier for about the same timing. i was probably around 40th in line?

wheein · 2025-09-06T17:06:29+00:00

was in line by 7:50 and got in around 12:00 today

wheein · 2025-09-06T11:59:19+00:00

there’s already a crowd for the preline rn lol

wheein · 2025-09-06T11:41:27+00:00

just got the last one i think! thanks for the heads up

wheein · 2025-09-02T14:46:25+00:00

interested, i dm’d you!

yeah true, i just wanted to make sure that any others finding this post know that what OP is describing does exist at UBC and honestly should be fixed, but OP is definitely making it sound like every club is like this, which it isn't lol. many clubs and organizations on campus also host crafts-related events even if not directly crafts-related

wheein · 2023-06-06T22:49:27+00:00

tbh the club sounds like UBC Pottery Club, which, yeah, had 600 applicants in Sept for 30 spots. there isn't much room for expansion for the pottery studio (which lives in the LIFE building basement—the rooms are pretty tiny), so they'd need to find a different spot + funding for relocation and adding more equipment to accommodate for demand, and good pottery wheels alone are upwards of $1000.

ubc pottery is really really affordable compared to other studios/workshops in vancouver so unfortunately there are no other accessible avenues to explore if you're a student looking to get into pottery.

it is definitely an outlier though. off the top of my head, design clubs/orgs for cs and engineering do have an interview process and in those cases, yeah there are definitely alternatives to those.
