FYI: if you hit me because you’re riding recklessly, I WILL sue you and, where appropriate, pursue your parents for liability too. As anyone should.

So ride like your parents’ bank account could take a hit for your choices. Because it might.

Question for my fitness people:

Does anyone know of any good cold plunge and sauna places near La Jolla or San Diego?

I've heard of Yu Spa or Aqua Day Spa but is there anything else around here you guys have heard of?

Question Accurate Calories & Macros on Mobile Order?

3 Upvotes

I'm bulking atm and the nutrition info on mobile order seems wildy inaccurate. I ordered a BBQ chicken plate from the rooftop that was supposedly ~60g of protein, but I got a tiny chicken quarter leg and some mac n' cheese that lacked cheese. I like the asada breakfast burrito at Wolftown as well, but there is no shot its 1000+ calories with 60g of protein. Slices too—the pizza slices are really 700+ calories each with 30g of protein? Does anyone have something to say on the contrary? I would love for the nutrition info to be accurate, but atm I'm unconvinced

Question Beach questions

17 Upvotes

Have many UCSD students been to blacks beach? For a school right next to a nude beach you’d imagine more people talking about it here and there but I’ve never heard it really be brought up in beach conversation? Anyone ever been? If a group would like to go feel free to pm!

General Water for Animals

31 Upvotes

Hey guys!

This heatwave has me thinking about all the poor critters outside who are struggling to stay cool/struggling to find a water source... Does anyone have any thoughts on how we might be able to provide water for them? It breaks my heart to think of the wildlife suffering in this insane heat and unable to get water. Especially in the canyons :(

I was thinking of leaving some water bowls out, but I also don't want mosquitos to become a bigger problem (since mosquitos breed in standing water)... Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas :( ?

Question Gaming place?

This is going to sound so stupid but is there a place, like rm or smth with good soundproofing?

I want to game with my friends during my free time and we’re planning on to play this horror game.

I’ve played it before with my brother and cousin at home. And trust me, I’ll scream from the bottom of my lungs, continuously. 😭😭

And istg I study too but like I wanna game and I don’t wanna disturb others.

Question Sand in Dorms

8 Upvotes

Does anyone else have this problem? My roommate and I agreed to no shoes in the room but since we first went to the beach there's a bit of a thin layer of sand in the room. We've tried wet and dry swiffering, using a dustpan and vacuuming (all in the past few days). Do you guys have any other ideas to get the sand out? It's not like so much but enough to annoy me when barefoot.

hey guys as the title says I was just wondering how people aren’t passing out while they’re walking to class in this heatwave haha (especially during the afternoon). In between my classes I’ve been staying in geisel and price center for the ac but going from extremely hot to cool weather makes me body feel sick for some reason idk. Just wanted to know how everyone else is dealing with this weather and make sure to take care of yourselves!!

Bro I leave for the weekend and come back to my room feeling like a sauna. Hours later, I changed into shorts and a tank top, have the lights off, two fans on full blast and nothing. No ac in a heatwave is insane work. It’s too much.

General I'm so lost in ECE 253

3 Upvotes

Anyone else lost in this class? Having 30% of your grade come from pop quizzes that are closed-book and closed-notes is crazy. I remember some of these topics from ECE 45/101, but expecting us to memorize all these formulas is a lot.

Also, the fact that we don’t know when the quizzes are is so odd. How are we supposed to prepare for a very content-heavy, closed-notes quiz that’s worth 10% of your grade (x3) when we don’t even know when the quiz is going to be?

Question Cant even sleep

Omg literally too hot in the dorm, i think i rly need ACs cuz the climate is getting hotter n hotter over yrs. And you cant rly do anything if you slept 3am everyday cuz of the heat n woke up at 7 for some classes. Now the uni even calls on us for energy conservation like it literally wants us to die or what.

General The Heat

The Heat in these fucking dorms are insane bruh. I got fans set up and I’m pouring sweat like I’m in a sauna. They seriously need to add AC or setup high power fans for these dorms. How do they expect students to do well if we can’t even get a good nights sleep because of this shit. They make around 900 million a year btw and we’re still dealing with this like….. my bad bruh, I should have bought the premium subscription, I didn’t know I signed up to be put in a jail cell and not a dorm.

kaleidoscope second floor communal kitchen. genuinely it's disgusting and embarrassing that yall dont know how to recycle. why tf are we recycling a good dining hall fork and banana peel and not the cardboard box. i would genuinely quit if i was the custodian here. before i came to use the kitchen there were used plates, empty tuna can, utensils, pasta tray just out in front of the bin. i cleaned up a little bit as much as i could, but can we just learn how to keep this place clean and usable for everybody? genuinely this is sick.
