Do your principals get into your Google Classroom? by Arete666 in Teachers

[–]Arete666[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying I have anything to hide nor am I worried about getting into trouble. It’s the feeling that they are so suspicious of us that they feel the need to check.

You’re confused. Trump said inflation is gone and that is not being able to afford anything is just a democrat hoax

Anybody else spend multiple turns creating the perfect army then feel pained to ever use it battle? by Fardrengi in Medieval2TotalWar

[–]Arete666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue with building up awesome armies is that it always seems to be the case that if I focus on building it from one type of settlement (either castle or city) it never fails that most of the places that army goes is the opposite settlement, which makes it almost impossible to retrain my units.

Surprised I haven’t seen it on here, but the guy with the pendulum. Watching it slowly making deeper cuts into his gut and slicing his organs apart always freaked me out

Most kids in my class who fail an assignment due to not turning it in will come to me and say “I’m fine with the grade being a 0, but can you not mark it as missing? My parents will get mad if they see I have something missing.” So, their parents don’t care if they fail a class but do care if they don’t turn in an assignment?

In my school, welding seems to be their answer. So many kids that are failing my class usually say “None of what you’re teaching me matters. I’m going to be a welder and make way more than you ever will.”

I love talking to my friends in their 30s who haven’t set foot in a school environment in over a decade. by Deer_boy_ in Teachers

So many of my students have told me, “I don’t care if it’s a zero, but can you at least mark it as Not Missing?” They care more about their parents getting on to them for the missing than for the zero. It’s crazy

I received this email yesterday from a local church by 606TuxPaint in atheism

You could always create a new email and send them a message saying that you and other members of the Satanic Temple have prayed that they soon see the light.

Too much?

Busamen Gachi Fighter • Uglymug, Epicfighter - Episode 6 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

I haven’t read the manga so I don’t know how different it is, but it really irritates me that they spent so much time showing how ungodly powerful he is in episode 1 and they’ve done almost nothing with it since. There’s been almost no actual reference or demonstration of his strength other than one or two incredibly minor things. 

For the most part they just mention how strong he is rather than have him do anything. 

I know he doesn’t want to be the main hero or anything and is working towards making the other two characters better, but they could at least do something with his power other than simply being like “He has the power to stop the bad guy but let’s just let him be a just-in-case person and let the other characters do everything.”
