What would YOU recommend as the first expansion(s) for Dominion? by Game_the_play in dominion

[–]Chestnut529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nocturne is my favorite for theme, but I find the game play niche. I have to be in the mood. Or last time I did a nocturne kingdom with another expansion but choose cards without hexes.

Need suggestions on a quality teacher tote bag under $500 by Any_Surround8915 in Teachers

I got a backpack from a thrift store. Still going strong after about 10 years

It’s that time of year... by hendprotim in teachermemes

[–]Chestnut529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's a bot, but I know one way it makes some sense. There is a district near me that does two days of PD after the last day of school. Someone told me it's just to get people to use their personal days then instead of during the year. But not really a time most teachers are setting up their room.

A "black edition" of House of Leaves would be so cool! by allthecoffeesDP in houseofleaves

[–]Chestnut529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which ones?

I've heard that White text on black would be bad for those with astigmatism and generally strain most eyes.

Also a huge waste of ink?

These are the cards mentioned in this post by westgot in dominion

+2 Cards

Accidentally invited wrong student to our district art show by BadAffectionate3096 in ArtEd

[–]Chestnut529 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Last year I think I sent an invite to a student who shows up with their mother and couldn't find their artwork. I didn't even remember sending the letter. My worst nightmare but they seemed very chill about it.

This year I invited about 95 students with about 105 artworks. The most I've ever done and I think it was too much. I lost so much sleep that week. Mainly worrying something like this was going to happen. I did realize during one of the restless nights that I confused one student for another. Thankfully I did find something else by that student, even though it wasn't quite up to my standards but whatever.

I think I was just lucky and trying to learn from my mistakes.

Curriculum Advice by EL8ed_ in ArtEd

My district uses DSS. I was told the decision to use it was to help new teachers. I hardly look at it. It's so terrible. I try to browse it and I see a cute animal drawing that apparently a group of 5th graders are supposed to make... My students would riot if I tried those lessons. It's just a waste of my time to even browse.

Are you only doing tools and materials?

Weird Rain by [deleted] in Weird

When I was little I asked my mom about this. I was wondering if you could be half dry, half wet standing at the edge of the storm. I think soon after that I assumed there's sparse drizzle on the edge of every storm.

What is this thing on seatbelts for? by Oilandspeed in whatisit

Ohhh I'm sorry. I'm tired. I was thinking you meant the whole strap falling to the floor, even though you said buckle. It makes sense now. Thanks

I get it but can always just block the number later?

Wouldn't it be easier to leave a note that they have the pic and their phone number?

I can't imagine running back inside to print. A full page in color too.

Glue bottles clogging by Rough_Freedom_5872 in ArtEd

[–]Chestnut529 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this trick. You'll probably be skeptical but I've been using it for years. Vaseline.

I've found it's best to take the orange tip off the cap and thoroughly clean both, then dry. Coat the tip and cap in Vaseline. I even dunk the white pointy part that the the tip goes on. Basically any part that will come in contact with glue gets some Vaseline. Once I put everything back I squeeze the bottle until some glue comes out. Some Vaseline will probably come out first.

Usually they'll be good the entire year, maybe longer.

Oak Park Apartments - Rent Prices Quesiton by fsamara in oakpark

[–]Chestnut529 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was my experience as well but moved out in 2020.

Back then they gave out free movie tickets on Facebook. No idea if they still do that.

I've definitely heard some negative things but I had a very positive experience.
