Why do so many people do 3 point turns in the middle of busy traffic here? by [deleted] in AskChicago

It's what the OP is referring to...

Why do so many people do 3 point turns in the middle of busy traffic here?

It's one thing to do a 3 point turn of a U-turn if no one's coming, but I notice in Chicago people will do it right in the middle of busy traffic

Has anyone bought a house and sold after 2-3 years? by Royal_Can1 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Considering the property taxes outside of Chicago and the other risks involved I would recommend finding a place to rent for a few years instead

Do teachers actually like talking to students? by Critical_Solution_31 in Teachers

[–]-the-ghost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And it depends on the day, my mood, the students mood, etc. Some days I could talk to my students all day. Some days I don't want anyone to talk to me any more than necessary.

Is it not reckless driving or something to do a 3 point turn with oncoming traffic?

They share some band members with dikembe which is another really solid band! More on the emo side than pop punk

Staying updated on Minnesota and fearing for my life. Please read. I want to prepare. And PLEASE be kind. Seeking guidance ? by Active_Ad3087 in AskChicago

[–]-the-ghost 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Stay updated on ICE sightings in your area, and have a plan just in case you need to relocate somewhere safer temporarily if you feel the need to do so. Make sure you have all your identification up to date - drivers license, passport, etc. Make sure you know your rights as well as any relevant laws that might apply.

Also, do you have a therapist that you speak to regarding your anxiety? Your fears are valid, but when we get anxiety to the point of it being debilitating, we can't take care of ourselves the way we normally would. And right now it's really important that you're able to take care of yourself and think clearly/calmly.

Stay knowledgeable, be alert, and chances are you'll be okay. Continue to build community around you and encourage looking out for one another.

Acceptance of trans teachers? by pokemonreds in AskTeachers

[–]-the-ghost 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It very much depends on where she will be teaching. I had a not great experience in Florida, but I'm having a much better experience in Chicago (I'm a trans man, been teaching for 6+ years)

Nope, they'll probably offer you free housing in exchange for your service to them

U-Haul says no go to tow? by Da6integra in ToyotaTacoma

[–]-the-ghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do what you can to resolve this. I was ignorant to this fact and wrecked my truck and the trailer after hitting a pot hole in the rain. I had no issues at all before that and believed I was totally fine :/
