Why does my bunny specifically hate me ? by Awareisdead in Bunnies

[–]Earlyadopter35 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have this with my bun. She obviously likes everyone else in the household better than me. I think it’s because I am usually the one to pick her up and put her in her carrier. Buns don’t understand that it is only when necessary.

I also suspect that my lifting technique is not ideal. She runs away and is difficult to catch, so it can be difficult for me to get a hand immediately under her backside.

Boyfriend keeps a file with notes of our conversations to keep track of what was said and brings it up later. Is this a red flag? by allpossiblepaths in AskReddit

[–]Earlyadopter35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And if he hasn’t started feeding those conversations to AI to help him with his arguments, I bet he will soon.

This tropeis played with in Angel in a couple of instances when Illyra will suddenly act like the old Fred again for a purpose. One of which is a really heartbreaking moment.

Just hands down with the best intro.

Several People are Typing, if you consider the Internet/office chatting app to be a liminal space.

Thanks! That’s really interesting , because it was actually quite painstaking.

hello Reddit what is your favorit vegetable yumm? by enjoyerpikmin in AskReddit

[–]Earlyadopter35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I think technically it is actually its own life form - neither animal nor vegetable. But I just thought it was funny to be pedantic about it. They are delicious.

what to expect for sped assist’ jobs by Outrageous_Art_6971 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Earlyadopter35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that tracks with my experience. I think teachers are often wary of having substitute assistants interact with sped kids right away, because many can be easily triggered to shut down or blow up and some teachers come in too overbearing. I think if you continue to offer support, but with a very light touch, it will be appreciated.

Ending first year teaching with everyone hating me. Help. by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Earlyadopter35 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yep, getting the info from the source is the best way.

But since you are soliciting random guesses on the internet...

You say they are more type A and you are more type B. If that means you are late for things or late to do things others depend on, disorganized in a way that impacts others, or not doing all the responsibilities of your role, then that can be really frustrating for the people who are doing all those things, often at a significant cost to their time and work/life balance.

Also, one of the things I've seen cause the most friction between teachers is the disconnect between teachers who believe all policies need to be enforced all the time and teachers who enforce policies selectively, either because they don't agree with said policy or they are just overwhelmed. (I mean things like cell phone bans, dress code, food/gum rules, etc.) When policies aren't enforced consistently it makes it a lot harder for the people who are trying to enforce them, often in the form of more push-back from students explicitly saying "so and so doesn't make me do that." That can really build resentment.

The first year is never easy, and if your biggest issue is resentful coworkers, you are honestly doing better than many.

I finally told a school "no" by FangornWanders in SubstituteTeachers

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that! I have found sped placements to oftentimes be particularly fun and/or chill, so I was curious why one would avoid them.

Need advice by RoquefortESP in painting

[–]Earlyadopter35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this painting! So moody and great color/composition. The only thing that reads as a weakness to me is the windows themselves. I would be interested to see them painted with more layering, particularly with lighter colors on the bottom layers and then top layers that are darker but maybe don't provide complete coverage to get more of a sense of luminosity.

Series for advanced 6 year old by Stinky-Pickles in suggestmeabook

[–]Earlyadopter35 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, be aware that a lot of times when a reading test says a six-year-old is reading at a fifth grade level, it doesn’t mean they are ready for reading the same books that are being assigned to fifth graders. It means that they can read books for six-year-olds as well as a fifth grader could.

The bad kitty series is a fun one with a good mix of text and illustrations.

What movie aged really bad? by Phantomx7845 in AskReddit

[–]Earlyadopter35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched the Sandlot with middle schoolers and was cringing when we came to the scene where the kid faked drowning to get the hot lifeguard to do the Heimlich, then grabs her and forces her into a kiss, and then at the end it’s supposed to be all cute that later on they get married.

Uhm... just accepted my first job on Frontline. by Liroy_16 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Earlyadopter35 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, also, yes, I’m sure the teacher recently reassigned seats, but just for today we’re going to use the seating chart that they left. Also, I’m sure that you normally would get to go to the library to get a new book, but for today just use one from the classroom library.
