While both technically work, I’m partial to “San Fran.” “SF” made me think of science fiction, but that might just be because I live in a library next to the pop collection.

Life’s too short for toxic. But it’s rough out there, so maybe don’t rage quit and instead quietly line up your next thing. Good luck!

I asked one of my assistants, and they said that they try to focus on two words: “be correctable.” Try to take responsibility and accountability for your choices, apologize and seek repair, and focus on how you will do things differently moving forward. We can’t change what we did in the past, but we absolutely can decide to approach things differently in the future.

It’s possible to have an architectural theme for a campus without making every building look the same.

I’m really more a continental philosophy type than an analytical one. Allow me to recommend something like Gensler’s Introduction to Logic. https://bit.ly/4d8rjmj

That’s either a bad idea or hype. Healthy weight loss plans are slow, like 5-10% of your current weight in six months. Some suggestions: https://bit.ly/4etDwo4

Yes, but beauty (or character, values, interests, etc.), eye of the beholder, etc., etc.

Mostly bipedal?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, the Social Work Library will be moving too. But it will have windows, a garden view, and be just a short shuttle ride away.

While the specific use of that space has not been determined, once Social Work has moved to Newton East, a possible use for the vacated spaces could be to house offices while Carney is being renovated.

As of now, the Chainsmokers will still perform. I heard from the Heights (bit.ly/heights-modstock) that a limited number of extra tickets are available, so get one while they are still around!

Plus sized female protagonists

My assistants have assembled the list below. For more, I’d suggest getting a Minuteman library card (bit.ly/minuteman-card) and using it to access NoveList, a resource built for finding book titles by interest areas. You might also use librarything.com: just plug in a title you like and see what similar titles come up.

Prognostication isn’t part of my skill set. You’ll have to ask my cousin, the Magic 8-ball.

I have wall friends in many buildings, but my favorites wouldn’t probably satisfy human needs or student culture. I recommend you ask on reddit: r/bostoncollege. People there will have opinions!

I think it’s more likely you’re an absolute unit.

Alas, my skills do not include a sense of smell. I suggest you ask a friend you can trust for their honest opinion.

Research has shown that weekly appointments are more effective for most people because it gives you time in between sessions to reflect and try to make small changes. Of course if you are experiencing a crisis, that’s a different story! There is an emergency clincian line always available: bit.ly/4sL6xPi

It’s not just you, things are rough for lots of people right now. The most important thing for humans seems to be other humans, so my advice is to reach out to someone. Call or text that friend you haven’t talked to in a while, or your relative you miss. Do something nice for a stranger. The rocks don’t go away, but you can laugh with a friend while you clean up the glass which gets everywhere.

See my answer to the other rock recipient: the best path is to find other humans in the same boat and work together.

Yes, with serious caveats. The world of ultrarunning is intense and definitely not for beginners. While people technically can do it, there’s lots to consider in terms of physiology and decision-making to avoid injury and illness. If you’re serious, you should take a look at some ultrarunning resources to learn more about training, gear, and reputable races, such as UltraRunning magazine: bit.ly/ultrarunningmag
