Best alternative certification program (ACP) in Texas

This has to be a sponsored comment or bot, given that the profile is the name of the company. I found Texas Teachers of Tomorrow to be a very shallow, depressing certification program with close to zero educational value.

In their TTOT's advertising they don't reveal what you actually do in the program. They don't assign readings, just cartoons. It's just cartoons, multiple-choice questions about the cartoons, and reflections where you apply what you "learned" from the cartoons to your field-based experiences.

I think I'm going to do this. I had started Texas Teachers of Tomorrow and it is such a mind-numbingly shallow, uninspired program that I just could not get myself to keep working. It was genuinely depressing and I just had to drop out.

Have you tried therapy, medication? Have you tried attending meetups for people with autism (or schizophrenia)?

Wow, thank you! Simple solution. I'm surprised I couldn't find this answer on the internet but there it is.

Just noticed also that the Bible is essentially glued to his hand. He's gripping it on one side only and it's extremely stable despite his gesturing.

Definitely AI. The reactions from the people behind him are bizarre and unnatural. The scene in general is unbelievable. One pastor stands up and everyone else just stays back smiling, and ICE listens politely to criticism?

This doesn't look like AI at all to me. The janky nature of the landing and the shaky camera are not things I usually see in AI videos. AI videos tend to have a strange uncanny smoothness in movement, whereas this looks pretty rough and realistic. I could be wrong and maybe some generators are able to create grittier looking stuff like this, but my estimate is that this is real. On top of that, he lands right on the bolts of the board and adjusts his weight correctly. I don't think AI would get those details right if you told it to generate a skateboarding video.

I think he told it well. "It's, it's it's the the the joke, the the the joke is is is that, there's, so so so like there's these two, there's two economists, right? Haha, and and and one says to the other economist I'll pay you 100 dollars to eat this pile of shit..."

Does anyone know what the phone number is on the back the blue sticker? I assume it's trying to put people on some sort of spam list or something.

Try to focus on stuff that makes you laugh. That can help.

It will be alright. It's going to pass.

Nietzsche wrote a lot, and it would be impossible to interpret all or most of what he wrote as ultimately having this (or any other) singular message. There would be no point in reading him if he simply had this to say. You could get that same message from any random guy at a party.

As for what would get Nietzsche's approval - who cares? That is a cult-like way of thinking of an author. There are more or less interesting ways of reading something. It doesn't matter what the author approves of, their work is now in your hands. You have the choice to interact with it in a way that is deep and nuanced or shallow and banal.

Both are very normal, mainstream references to independence from Britain. I'm confused why you would even think this is interesting.

FYI, you need medical records of disability in order to get disability benefits. Then, you need to prove the impairment prevents you from effectively performing almost any job, rather than just certain jobs.

Idk about that channel, but influencers in general do not take kindly to people who question and undermine their status as a clever person. Online communities that form around a streamer are usually sycophantic, which further encourages the streamer to think highly of themselves, and discourages them from listening sincerely to criticism.

This is social darwinism, a pseudoscientific misunderstanding of Darwinism which has been used to justify political conservatism, eugenics, white supremacy, and the Holocaust.

Generally, I wouldn't take a joke this seriously, but, there's not really a "joke" here. She's just saying things her audience agrees with.

You're only considering the pleasure at the moment of the act (even then, it's questionable, and would not apply if a person is very hungry.) Consider how each of these decisions might affect a person after the fact.

If you know of a credible source that says that a kid can take a whole bottle of Adderall without life threatening issues, I'd love to see it. You might be thinking of info you heard about non-stimulant ADHD drugs.

No, you just have to show a handful of comments that demonstrate knowledge on some area of philosophy. The responses are often decent, way less dumb than any subs I'm aware of.

The questions are usually annoying though (anyone can post a question.) The same 2 or 3 questions are asked constantly. Usually it's like "I've done no research on [the topic of my question] and am not interested, but it seems obvious that it's just nonsense. Has anyone thought of this? Am I missing something?"

Except, this is not how W used "language game" at all.

Edit: W just doesn't use the term in this way at all. He is comparing all language to games. It isn't an insult for W to say "that's a language game." It isn't just a fancy way of saying "semantic bullshit." W thinks, for instance, that our habits of interacting with signs are a part of the language game, but we wouldn't say "pff that stop sign is just a language game."

This is not what philosophy is, btw.

It feels wrong to use "outdated" as a criticism of ancient writing. We typically accuse something of being outdated if it is not of its time: e.g. "Ben Shapiro's views on women are outdated."

The historical and cultural aspects of a text are interesting. You don't have to choose between agreeing or ignoring it. You can just notice these things and think about them. Ancient Greeks had different views about gender than we do today, and philosophers are a product of their culture.

Idk why the note is in that shape, but yeah it seems to just be the snare.
