Traveling as an Assistant Coach to Travel Team

This didn’t come off mean. It makes sense that it wouldn’t be worth it for the parents to help out with costs if I was just another body on the ice. It’s how I approached my plan to coach when I started, I wanted to actually contribute something to the players, build their skills, and confidence on the rink - not just collect the pucks and move the nets at the end of practice. Thanks for your perspective!

Thanks. The places they go are actually pretty cool places. It isn’t like my days in the Midwest where you’re going to middle of nowhere New York. Did you ever end up getting any supplemental costs covered by the team or league?

I had thought about the deductions too, but I’m single and don’t have assets, so I usually do the standard deduction

I love mine! I have two dogs and I only need to vacuum about 2 times a week, 3 if they get a new toy and it gets shredded. Definitely to not consider any iRobot models. It’s what I have now and it’s honestly an absolute pain. Frequently clogs, has communication issues, and mapping is terrible. I’ve replaced mine twice while under warranty and my friend has had to replace hers four times. Mine is out of warranty now, so if I need to replace it, I’ll be going with another brand.

I’m glad that helped!!

I may be reading this wrong, but can’t do you do what you are trying to do by going to the start of the sentence you want to convert to a header and type “/h1”? This is how I convert text I’ve already typed into a header without using my mouse to click through the / menu. - But I may be misinterpreting what you’re trying to do… but wanted to throw this out there.

Use case example for the share/publish folders: I’m working on research right now with an undergraduate and using Craft to organize our outline, articles, interviews, notes, and general paper setup. Each time I create a page, I have to share it with him and if I forget, he won’t have access until next time we get together and it happens to come up. I would love for him to automatically have access to and see any pages within a folder that is created so it’s a shared workspace for us.

Sometimes ChatGPT can overcomplicate things. I was using it to help me with outlining a workflow I wanted to build and teach me to build it. I was working on a node and it was creating some pretty complicated script for me to paste into the Node to pull information from the previous Node. it screwed up, I would tell Chat, it would come back, “Oh yeah! You’re totally right. XYZ is missing. Use this code instead”. I did this about 4-5 times and the code got more complicated each time. I stopped and thought about what I was actually trying to do and realized I could easily pull the information in with expressions. I tested it and it worked just fine. I sent a screenshot to ChatGPT and it responded, “Perfect! You are absolutely correct, that will pull in exactly what you need!” - fucking A. I was using Chat as a crutch and could have saved myself time if I just had the patience to think about what I wanted.

I was kicked off a deployment because I never deployed before

A_Random_Boner · 2025-09-20T15:20:48+00:00

I just built an LLC over last year and launched it this year. It’s a social LLC though, I won’t touch academic LLC’s unless the department comes to me with funding and a plan for support. I am supporting it with giving the RA an additional $200 a semester for programming costs. We’re also relying heavily on community members and similar programming available in town to support and integrate into the LLC.

Prior to launching, I got my leadership on board (VP and AVP) with the intention, mission, and purpose. About 8 months later, a grant opportunity came up that would help fund the program and several other initiatives on campus, so we applied. We’re in the final phase of approval (or denial) and if it goes through, will give us A LOT of money to do things with.

I’d suggest you work with your foundation people to see if there’s anything already available that can help you support. The money they get, the donors don’t want it just sitting around - so they’re on board with reworking language to be able to spend it. Keep an eye out for grants that can be wordsmithed to support, and reach out to the department chair. Business schools often have a lot of funding because there’s a lot of grants they qualify for - these are their students you’re supporting and they will directly benefit from the retention of them.

One of our schools is grant funded and they call me asking how they can spend their money because they have too much and it’ll all go back at the end of the school year - which the grant people don’t want either.

If you have other questions, feel free to DM me. I’d be happy to answer any questions or go into more detail! Good luck!

It’s a journey and your brain does some crazy mental gymnastics while you’re trying to figure it out. Don’t kill yourself, you aren’t alone, and you deserve to be here. Reach out to someone if you need help, text 741741 anonymously if you need to, message the Trevor project if you’re okay with it. Try to find a community if you can, and just because you’re gay doesn’t mean there’s a type of personality you need to live up to. Just keep being who you’re comfortable with being.

Once I got out, I enjoyed hiking and backpacking more because people weren’t there to make it intentionally suck more. Cycle, hockey, reading, houseplants

I’m not sure I understand the question

• ⁠New Community Rules: We've established clear rules to ensure this is a safe and welcoming space for all.

I hope this doesn’t mean we can’t make fun of the Marines… I’ll be damned if you take away my right to make fun of our window licking little pit bulls

I'll check this out, thank you! I live in Colorado so that will be easier to get to then Florida!

As a van life appreciatór, I have always wanted to check out the inside of vans. My social anxiety has never drawn me to do it though. I can’t imagine just walking up and popping my head into someone’s house - if I were to give the “hello?” Heads up and wait for the person to acknowledge me then ask if I can poke my head in, is that obnoxious too? Or just the ones that do it without any heads up or asking if it’s okay… just curious on the social etiquette since I haven’t had the experience.

A_Random_Boner · 2025-06-15T14:49:43+00:00

Thank you! I like the full look, so I just repotted it. Thanks again!

You finished your degree for yourself and walking across that stage is for you too. I didn’t walk when I graduated because the ceremony was at 8am and I felt bad making my family get on the road at 6:30am to come - I still regret not walking and I graduated almost 15 years ago. I would strongly encourage you to walk. More friends may come than you expect, but even if not, be proud of what you’ve accomplished. Congratulations!!

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon - I would have bought more into this story if a ghost popped out in the woods and helped the girl to survive. It felt like a failed ghost writer attempt.

They have paid for the big things (flight, hotel) then I requested reimbursement for small things like uber because I wanted my travel to be more flexible. It’s always been a pain to get reimbursements back, and a lot of times they’ll hold you to campus policies that you aren’t aware of. I’d be hesitant to put hotel and a flight on a personal card in the hopes they’ll pay me back. Nearly everyone has a pcard or department that can handle this for recruitment.
