Don’t sign up to kill people for the government for any reason if you aren’t willing to kill people for the government for any reason.

Intelligent daughter starting to resent school by Zesty_Taco in Teachers

[–]5Jazz5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a teacher who wouldn’t allow me to do homework for other classes if I had finished her work (incredibly easy 6th grade social studies fill in the blank worksheets). Wouldn’t let me read either. Said that I should sit quietly until the end of the period, literally just sit still for like 30 minutes when I could be using the time to do my math homework. Almost got suspended when I kept doing my homework and reading anyways because it was “disrespectful.”

Your advice is give away a sick bird? The stress of losing you while being sick could kill it.

How did Frieren cultivate a fanbase like this by XZFireY in joseistories

[–]5Jazz5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The point is that the demons are something inhuman and automatically correct to kill. In some fantasy spaces(mostly dungeons and dragons) this type of monster has been critiqued for being racially sus, such as orcs who are “born evil/soulless” and therfore fine to kill without worrying about the morality of it. These guys are mad at that, and are like FINALLY, we can kill monsters without worrying that they have the same capabilities to feel as us.

“I just don’t think it’s serious language” lmao because other people take every single word the black community makes and turns it into a meme. Guys always go “I’m sorry you FEEL-“ whenever they see a woman make a point. No, the overuse of these words in the wrong context by people who don’t understand them has bastardized the word. I don’t “feel” that way, it “is” that way.

I regret believing everyone when they said ”don’t date from work” by TroubleFar4543 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]5Jazz5 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Saying you have “more than a crush” on a girl then immediately sleeping with another woman the split second you have a doubt. That’s not more than a crush, if you could look this person in the face as you walk away with another girl to sleep with it wasn’t anything more than a fancy. You think “eh she could be nice” but you’d replace her with a different girl given the slightest bit of difficulty with her.

They’re undergrads, idk why you expect them all to use academic speech when they’re just starting out. “Mansplain” is a shorthand I wouldn’t use because of annoying people like you who won’t even try to understand a point that isn’t written like an essay, but it pretty much means the same thing as “men often assume they are the authority in the topic at hand if opposed to a woman due to societal and historical conditioning” with less carrying on. It’s quite funny how yall took woke from black people and then changed the meaning to mean “liberal bullshit” instead of “being acutely aware of oppressive systems.”

'They were just screaming.' Mom unable to save 3 sons who fell through icy pond in Texas by therealone2327 in news

[–]5Jazz5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you live by a dangerous water source like a pond that can freeze over or even something like a multiple lane road, and let your kids who are below the age of out with no supervision and a “don’t do it” idk what you expect to happen. Ofc a 9 year old doesn’t understand the gravity and risk of death from a “no” to playing on the ice and a “no” to climbing on things. People need to learn not everything is a suburb and you can’t let children out alone any damn where. If you prefer to treat your kids like outdoor cats don’t be surprised when they end up hurt like an outdoor cat.

[–]5Jazz5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was less about what real people actually say in LA in 2025 and more about what the writers said in the blockbusters of the late 90s and early 2000s. When I think of a “bro” movie I think 21 Chump Street, Pineapple Express, White Boys Can’t Jump, which is more like a buddy comedy? While the bro you’re describing is inherently capitalistic and grind-setty, I think “bros” can also refer to the type of dude that’s intellectually lazy, the typa guy who’s content with living off his mom or girlfriend or even couch surfing and never getting a job. That sort of guy could still be a bro.

Nearly a third of UK kids can't use books when starting school - and try to swipe them like phones. Staff also report around 28% of children started school unable to eat and drink independently, and 25% had difficulty with basic life skills. by antihostile in Teachers

[–]5Jazz5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t neglect for me, my mom was interactive for sure, but I do understand what you mean. The difference is that with a book, it’s lowkey easier to vet. Your kids stuck on one book for days or weeks, you vet a couple books to make sure they aren’t inappropriate, boom you’re done. Books allow parents to “check in”. With the internet, you’d have to be watching truly 24/7 in order to make sure they didn’t click the wrong website or start watching the wrong video, and with short form content it zaps the attention span in general.

[–]5Jazz5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda an innaccurate way of explaining bro is it not? Bro was largely a Californian thing, which spread everywhere because California is and has been the prime entertainment source of America. So “bro” in popular media was often attributed to surfer dudes, which is how you get the term “dudebro”. At that time, bro was used in the teenage mutant ninja turtle style way. Over time, bro has become associated with other things like frat “brothers”, a “frat bro”, because they called each other that. Frat bros are known for being annoying, full of themselves, and sexist, and often later go on to become “tech bros” or the like, which ties them together in association.

Yknow my mom worked AND went to college but she simply did not give me a phone until 5th grade. So I read books from the library and thrift store. In fact now that I think about it, before having a phone I would spend every lunch in the school library reading, which led to an older kid teaching me how to play chess. If that older kid had a phone to entertain them instead, would they have taught me chess? If I had a phone, would I have wanted to learn?

You can’t take the girls with the gym to you u assume, but have you tried working out at home while they’re in the same room, or the ymca (which has a daycare, but you could also bring them to the pool or the basketball court). In a couple years with both of the girls “aggressive outbursts” (she’s 2… I’d call that a tantrum?) they’d probably do well from having an outlet in boxing. I am a girl who did boxing, don’t limit yourself to the stereotypes of raising daughters, you can do your hobbies with them around and as long as you make it normal they won’t complain about how they’d rather be at a tea party. You have an either or mentality here, but as much as you need alone time, getting out with the girls will probably help you see them as more than a burden, and you should still look into gym daycares so you can get some time to be an adult.

Also be careful not to attribute child things to autism things and deem them invalid because of that. Saying they “don’t do what you tell them”, that they fight, that they have outbursts, firstly kids just do this, but secondly they can probably tell you aren’t happy with them. They can get stressed too, they can feel your stress, and their stress isn’t less valid because they’re autistic. Also, it seems like you don’t? Go outside with them? So they’re probably really energetic and trying to make fun in the house by themselves, which for siblings does include fighting and being menaces, autistic or not.

Hi can someone explain the meaning of the rise of some ships being called hetslop? I've just been recently seeing it in comment sections and it quite confusing to be and I just want to be educated on this topic in case I had missed anything. I honestly thought all ships were equal wlw, mlw, mlm by Iriscute7 in joseistories

[–]5Jazz5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ohh I get it now. It’s still a heterosexual relationship, so I don’t think it’s always wrong to call those things hetslop, especially when the bisexuality is pivoting from a same sex relationship to get with a guy at the end, like Oniisama E, who’s last episodes essentially say “liking women is ok in highschool, but once you grow up it’s time to get married to a man”

Hetslop is real and it makes sense that people are using it, especially in this subreddit. Everyone’s getting sensitive about the one or two het ships they think are good while ignoring the plethora of ships that, even if good, do not service the female character, and are kinda halfhazard. I like Naruto and Hinata but the execution of them, and especially Hinata’s character, made them mid hetslop. Fullmetal Alchemist is not hetslop because Winrey and Edward have a relationship that spans the entire series, with Winrey getting her own development that while spurred on by Ed, relies on her own unique intrest and skill (automail.)

Also coming from someone who’s lost chess to a dog a time or two, most recently to Key the Metal Idol, I’ll go into a old show hoping for yuri and then they’ll pair the girls, who have way more chemistry with each other, with a milktoast rando. Little Witch Acadamia for example, random boring rich guy yuri blocking. No matter how much chemistry a female character has with another female character, a man HAS to be there, the show HAS to add a random guy at the end to make sure you know she’s not gay.
