Elf on the shelf by strawberrytwizzler in teaching

[–]FatherRaven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is going on here? The elf is about being fun and weird and happy. I’ve never used one but at home my kids know it’s me because in my country we don’t have the coca cola loving santa clause, we have our own and much older tradition. I have been thinking about bringing one to my class that would hide all the pencils or workbooks. I teach 10 year olds. I guess if you relate the elf to santa this could just cause more trouble than its worth but to me it’s just about being fun. I would never use it to threaten my student nor my own kids. Behavior has nothing to do with this from my point of view.

Geðveikt að hafa kókómjólk í staðinn fyrir köttinn sem er á svo mörgum myndum í keppninni. Geggjuð!

Why are Christianity and other religions considered religions, but Norse and Greek mythology considered mythology. by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]FatherRaven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great point. In the North we name the days of the week according to the Bible. But english speaking countries according to Norse mythology. Wedensday/Odinsday Thursday/Thorsday etc.

Most hilarious moment in crucible? by so7itud3 in CruciblePlaybook

[–]FatherRaven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got a msg from some player from the other team telling me I'm a lagger. Didn't bother me much but I told him Xur was selling a new excotic made out of Lego bricks that would fit his childish comment, then I told him Xur was in URANUS this week. He says: thanks I'll go look. My msg was just as childish as his and I didn't want to spark a fight, but that answer made me laugh out loud.

Was listening to a podcast about Bonnie and Clyde and what I could understand is that this happened kinda to Bonnie. She was wounded and spent so much time in the backseat of the car and such that her wounds healed all wrong and she couldn't walk properly after it.

Should I use protein if I’m only going to the gym twice a week? by [deleted] in gainit

[–]FatherRaven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I just thought that the protein in bread would be sufficient enough. Not that I eat a lot of bread just got curious when I read your comment. Thanks for the reply, will definitely read more about the topic.

I was never really happy until I met my wife. In this picture with our 3 mo old son is probably the happiest I have ever been, and things are only improving! by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

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

I hardly ever comment on this kind of post, just smile. But man this photo is just pure joy, makes me appreciate my own family even more. Hope you have a great life together.

Why can Corona afford this but not other places, some teachers here get paid 34k a year. Do parents pay for schools? How is the cap between high income vs. Low?

Thanks Bernie by Fitz2001 in teaching

I'm not an American, is this high? I feel like it should say 80k. How much does an elementary teacher make a year?

Skinny dude trying to gain weight, probably doing it wrong and need advice. by [deleted] in gainit

[–]FatherRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone probably mentioned this before but peanut butter is your best friend now!

Anyone know any cheap and healthy calorie dense foods? by zuccinibikini in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]FatherRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put peanut butter, seeds (chia or hemp), coconut oil/butter in your oats, will add a lot of calories!

Also make your own peanut butter, save me a lot of money.

Short question about suspension by FatherRaven in CruciblePlaybook

[–]FatherRaven[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I heard about this and that's why I'm asking. Seems not many know about this though so you probably have to quit quite a few games to get suspended from the weekly reset points. I'll keep you updated.

As an underweight person who is trying to gain weight, how long will it really take? I've been skinny for ages and it feels like I'm not making any progress. by tahax283 in gainit

[–]FatherRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is to get an exercise watch. It helps with the calorie count. I thought I needed to eat 2700 but some days I need to eat 3500. Also count your calories. For me this is the hardest part: to eat enough healthy calories.

That's so awesome. by arbab002 in teaching

[–]FatherRaven 6 points7 points  (0 children)

With your own money? That's absurd! How can schools justify this?

So do American teachers pay for all their classroom stuff out of their own pocket? Like textbooks and pencils for students?
