CodeSwitch Pop Culture Happy Hour Stuff You Should Know Stuff You missed in History Class Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me (more of a radio show but I like it anyway)
I’m sure I’m not alone in having cravings that seem to come out of nowhere and never really get satisfied. What are some cravings you all get and what seems to satisfy them best?...

I tried coming out at 18. It didn’t go so well. I told my best friend… who then never spoke to me again. It was embarrassing, we were doing the same training scheme and would bump into each other. He completely ignored me....
First time I tried was in middle school. She was disgusted and outed me to the whole school (conservative south). Eventually my parents found out and it went alright, I mostly denied everything.
I also nailed shut the closet door until college when I finally accepted/discovered again my queerness.
Came out again as bi and non-binary a few years ago, have tons of supportive (and trans) friends, my partner is amazing. My parents kinda try but I don’t bother too much anymore. I’m not really “out” at work other than being generally queer looking.
Overall pretty traumatic but I’m in a much better place now, gotta look at the bright side.
I need to replace my 5 year old laptop this summer for the fall semester and I’ve decided that instead of a new computer I should just upgrade to a tablet. I’ve always loved the iPad mini for its size. It’d be extremely portable and I would honestly get a lot more use out of it other than just school work, but I’m...
Depends on your major and use cases but I’d say the iPad Air. I believe the increased screen real estate is well worth the portability trade off. Especially since you’re thinking of it being a computer replacement
The idea of consistently typing papers and taking notes on the mini would annoy me
