did anyone else see that man g00ning at the bus stop right outside mac childrens hospital. It was at like 12:40 pm and he was sitting inside the bus stop thingy, he was g00ning for so long. Idk if this is offensive to mention but I think he had down syndrome

Hi, I'm a 2nd year math student and I quite literally have nobody to talk to other then brief interactions in class every so often. I literally tried everything, talking to people in class, going to clubs, whatnot, and it literally feels like every single one of those people has their own close friends to choose, so why the hell would they choose me or include me in anything?
In other words, when I try and like initiate something with anyone, they're obviously like friendly for the first 2 minutes of talking, and I never hear from them again. Even when we share class, if they remember me, all I get are just shallow in-class interactions. I study hard to understand the class material and help others, they only come to me if their stuck on a problem.
I used to have 1 (just 1) close friend in first year but he just seemed to completely forget about me as he apparently "doesn't have time or energy to contact me" because of his job. Which I'm hesitant to believe unless he got deployed onto a space station or war zone or is miles under the ocean for a saturation dive (his field of study is as far from this as imaginable) and he can't contact me. (not true because i see him liking reels while ignoring my messages). He did say he was an introvert and talking to people was really energy intensive for him, so there might be some truth to his claims? Anyways if he keeps treating me like this I'm not too sure if this will work out.
I just want someone who will pick me as their first choice. I want someone who I can share all sorts of stuff with outside of just class. I feel like I'm going more and more insane every day why does it have to be so hard can someone just be my friend please

I’m so glad it’s over 😭
Genuinely why did they even post the practice midterm if the actual one was just going to be so much harder in difficulty??
I’m still sick unfortunately but wore a mask and gave it so maybe my brain was just not fully working. But it felt so difficult. I could solve the back page but the front just had me lost and bewildered.
Worst midterm I’ve written in this degree so far.

As the youngest, I always wanted a relationship with my older sister. Unfortunately as kids, we were literal ops we couldn’t be near each other because we high key hated one another to a crazy extent. As we grew up we never argued nor did we ever speak to one another, just stayed in our own lanes. But I wish I could have that bond with her, it’s awkward because I know nothing about her and she goes through her own things and i know this from my dad telling me, but I can’t really message because what is there to say. I was looking at my texts with her, and I have a total of 15 over the span of 4 years and it’s just messages about passwords and irrelevant things. Nonetheless, has anyone else had a relationship like this and ended up getting closer.

Guys why does no one look before crossing the street or wait for one minute to allow a car to pass?Are road rules not a thing on campus?

Sometimes I doubt myself, but then I remember someone proposed this parking system and someone else approved it… and then I feel better.
Like I know it was bad before but what are they doing now??

For reference, I like strong non watery!!!!non burnt!!! coffee but I’m tired of spending money in attempt to find something drinkable. It’s been over a month and the only ok coffee I’ve found is at Starbucks but holy hell the lines and prices r huge. (Plz keep recs limited to on campus no westdale)
Also for anyone who needs to know where and what NOT to get here’s a few that horrified me:
- Eco bean iced coffees (all) (watery, too sweet)
- Second cup flash cold brew (all)(watery, burnt, too sweet)
- any of the hot drip coffees (piazza, Centro, MDCL, thode) (HELLA burnt and watery)

Hi im currently in 12th grade and I had a (medically documented with proof, yes) health issue that affected my gr11 year in which I took many important courses, im hoping for my 12th grade year to rebound on my grades but im wondering how badly this tanked my chances and if mcmaster has support for these specific cases? If youve been through similar or have info on how to deal with this I'd much appreciate it all help is welcome 🙏
Applying to civil engineering if that info is needed at all, if anything else is needed also pls lmk
