Eh, maharat is considered left of modern orthodox. Like you’re not gonna see a female Rabbi at the local Young Israel, much less anything yeshivish, anytime in the near future.

It’s actually not that bad for the neighborhood this is in. Like studios and 1 bedrooms run over $3000.

Now, as for Scott, it is entirely fair to say that he’d be an absolute nobody if it weren’t for his (estranged?) wife and her family.

Hmm, how is it any better to potentially lead someone on, wasting their time and maybe their money, vs calling it quits.

Totally guilty of the not calling it quits thing, mostly ‘cause of sunk cost fallacy. Do you ever develop chemistry? I take to people slowly so I don’t want to write ‘em off, but I also am so not feeling the dude I’m kinda? seeing.

I was gonna join in on the sunny day hate ‘til I remembered that my gramma hates sunscreen and so it’s sunny umbrella or she won’t use anything. As she’s had two biopsies for melenoma now, I think I have to resign myself to being ok with the sunny day umbrella.

I have mixed feelings on him. Like him for this sorta progressive helps everyone stuff and yet it makes me even more angry at him for trying to kill CUNY. Like dude, it’s one of the few pieces of the city’s public school education system that generally functions.

I want emoji image search to be real, and expanded to image and video searches.

Isn’t that a Jewish thing?

So much of this. The handful of places near me that sell affordable bulk are mostly a bus or train ride away, and having to get it home can be a nightmare. If I had to stock up on enough for a family, it’d quickly veer into bag lady territory. And that’s before the storage issues people have mentioned.

Burdensome costs can lead parents to stretch the time between diaper changes, leading to unintended (but nevertheless serious) health consequences.

Many people are equally successful and interested in the maths and sciences, and humanities and social sciences.

The Science kids just want to be allowed to go to class and study. many of them worked very hard to get where they are, and will not get another chance.

I feel like there’s some huge context omission going on. The Darthmout protest was a unique event that affected everyone in that library, not the pattern of targeted harassment of STEM students the OP has apparently dreamed up.

I’m in the NYC Public Uni system, so uh my guess is that my school’s numbers probably don’t differ too much from yours once I factor in that it’s a commuter school. Maybe it’s a sampling bias of you’re interested in social justice and so activists are over represented in your social circle?

Umm...I’m a STEM person. Undergrad in computer engineering, working on a phd in computer science. So I’m speaking very much from my own experience here and from working with a lot of academic humanities people this year on a fellowship.

No, but at least at my school, the STEM people who aren’t in social science tend to not get involved in the protests and other social justicy things flying around campus. And the STEM majors at my school tend to be fairly diverse, so it’s not a white & Asian people opting out issue; I think it’s more that protests and…

Maybe it’s a sampling error? Like I’m at a public university system and our humanaties and some of our social science students tend to be very into social justice and we’ve had loads of protests these past few months (granted, ours were mostly about adjuncts & contracts & funding & the like) and so if you poll them…

Serious students pursuing degrees in hard sciences have to study in locked rooms so that BLM people will not barge in and scream at them.

“In response to ‘I was raped,” only Cortana referred users to a sexual assault hotline, according to the study. Siri, Google Now, and S Voice responded along the lines of ‘I don’t know what you mean’ or ‘I don’t understand’ and offered to do a Web search.
