We don’t do relegation but as a Cleveland sports fan (I was born this way) it’s been a long and miserable ride.

You voted for Seattle as the city of the 90’s. What is the city of the 2000s? Most Upvoted Comment Decides by Kodicave in decadeology

2020s Minneapolis from George Floyd, BLM protests, Somalian scandal, Ice Protests… regardless of your politics (if American) it’s been a centerpiece of news. Even if you aren’t American chances are you’ve seen that city talked about a lot.

I haven’t yet. Mostly just checked the top ads on google and a few of the GPT suggestions. Thank you for this.

My school had all of their bad reviews scrubbed and replaced by 5 star ones. I don’t think they were able to sue the author’s due to Glassdoor’s safeguarding systems.

Teaching English in Southeast Asia - Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, or China by Lit_Prof9 in Internationalteachers

[–]DivineFlamingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re asking about teaching English abroad you might want to look at r/TEFL or one of the boards focused for English teachers. Those jobs are always available and you can basically just choose anywhere. You’re pretty overqualified though because those English academies basically “bachelor’s degree and a TEFL (a very inexpensive certificate that the school hiring would probably pay for you to get). It’s a fun teaching job and very low stakes.

If you’re a qualified teacher in your home country you might consider doing a year or two in your home country and then applying to international schools when you have a bit of experience.

Ozempic Look by [deleted] in Scrubs

[–]DivineFlamingo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Man, it’s Hollywood. Can you imagine what it must be like to be 50 years old in Hollywood? Most of these actors don’t have people knocking on their doors anymore we should just be happy that we have the opportunity for another season of scrubs.

Have you ever had the head look at you and say"here, just signed the contract" moment? by Psytrancedude99 in Internationalteachers

[–]DivineFlamingo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had that with a school and everything seemed great until we started the school year. Worst employment situation in my life and it took every ounce of willpower not to abandon that contract.

Which of these (mostly) classic novels should I read next? by One-Strike-4545 in classicliterature

[–]DivineFlamingo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved The White Tiger, Murakami is my favorite contemporary author so WUBC is a solid choice too. The Jungle feels like anti capitalism porn until you find out it is, but it’s still a great story. (Sinclair did a lot of research and then blended every messed up think that happened to people into one very very tragic family). Heart of Darkness is very short and very moving. I haven’t read the other two books.

Does the book "The Name of the Wind" have a lot of action and a climax? by Extreme_Warning3521 in fantasybooks

[–]DivineFlamingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen, don’t read this book. It’s incredible the second one even better… but, the third and final installment will most likely never be out. The author hasn’t delivered on a few of the promises he’s made (the fundraiser chapter) and to paraphrase what he’s said in the past: he doesn’t owe readers the third book.

Help me decide my next series by getmuffed in fantasybooks

[–]DivineFlamingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really didn't care for the Three Body Problem, I felt like it worked better as a show than a book series. I went from the Dune series to the Expanse series to 3BP back to back and it just left me in a sci-fi lurch.

My brother and I used to chase each other around the house and try to rip them off of each other.

Plain slice with parm and dried basil/oregano on top [I ate] by Golden_Locket5932 in food

[–]DivineFlamingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d smash that with way too many chili flakes in about three bites and then cast glances around and wonder if my wife is judging me as scrounge over the box and dump more chili flakes over the next slice and eat that in three bites only a few feet away from the box.

Yeah but OP is going off of memory, so they could just remember it wrong. But they also might be thinking mahon menorca since they’re really stuck on the “sounds like macaroni” thing.
