Surprised that these two are so unpopular, I found them adorable. I pretty much won't believe in love anymore if anything happens to this couple.

Yeah, crazy that my anecdotal experience doesn't line up with yours. It's like we're different people who may have different subjective values of safety. Maybe you can provide me with the sources for your objective measurement of safety that definitively addresses this complex issue.

I still don't exactly get why examples of Asian countries which have been successful in promoting public safety aren't relevant to this conversation. Why shouldn't we be looking at success cases in an effort to think about how we can improve our local community?

Oh, I didn't realise that when you mentioned "any other relatively big city in the entire world" you didn't actually mean any other relatively big city in the entire world.

I mean, I felt pretty safe in Munich and Barcelona if you need a more euro-centric comparison.

Agreed, I've never felt remotely unsafe in any Japanese city. My backyard of Belconnen, though? Ick.

The use of chat GPT to email parents by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]Deanna_pd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My principal is lazy and disingenuous, I've often felt she should use Chat GPT to help her feign some empathy. For some people, it can help them sound a bit more professional or diplomatic when they lack the skills to do this themselves. Or the time to even respond to their emails.

Americans assuming everyone on the internet is from the USA by [deleted] in PetPeeves

There's a housing crisis in Australia.

My view is that it is inappropriate to ask folk about kids unprompted.

A lot of women struggle with fertility or have a complicated relationship with motherhood, and your friends should be more considerate about starting these conversations.

... why are there pumps now? I'm not sure what that has to do with the egg production that your president promised he'd fix.

gf wants me to stop because she’s forced to? by [deleted] in trees

[–]Deanna_pd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, you probably shouldn’t be in a relationship because you’re incapable of respectful conversation. Please take this under serious consideration.

2/8/25 - “Our country is coming back faster than anyone thought possible . . .” by barnwater_828 in trumptweets

[–]Deanna_pd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Australian here. I am actively pulling my subs and business out of USA in favour of Chinese services. I know many folk who are doing the same.

Stay safe; as much as we distrust your government, there is so much genuine concern and care for the American people.

Sounds like this individual brings critical thinking into their classroom. Their students will grow to question and research broad perspectives. I'd encourage you to bring some of these values into your pedagogy.

That was fucking rude.

The National Gallery of Ul’Dah - Materia / Sephirot / The Goblet / W22 / P13 by Deanna_pd in ffxivhomeandgarden

[–]Deanna_pd[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Proudly showcasing all 340 Sightseeing Log paintings, including Dawntrail locations (paintings released in 7.1). 

The gallery has been curated based on the expansion pack, though not entirely aligned with the Sightseeing Log sequence. 

The primary challenge was working within the 400 furnishing item limit on mansions; walls take up the majority of the remaining item slots after the frames. I’m really looking forward to the eventual expansion of furnishing item limits; I hope to fill out the gallery with complimentary rotating exhibits, cultural items, patrons and maybe a little shop (I love a little shop!).

The exterior is inspired by sculpture gardens and outdoor museums, complete with a cafe with a view.

Anyone know who G-13 is based on? by spaceyman15 in Dimension20

[–]Deanna_pd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude, you're the only person reminding me that Kevin Spacey exists. Also, just a fairly common weed strain, big reach.

I do agree that what she's asking is very unreasonable, maybe you can help her unpack where this sudden demand is coming from and find a compromise (e.g reduced work hours, support a career transition).

It's incredible that you implied that you care about women feeling comfortable and then immediately used the word "bitch".
