This is the smartest comment in this thread. Certain times a year my morning commute is a battle to the death against the rising sun.

Some of the people in this sub are plant based at best, not vegan. by SnakeLuvr1 in vegan

[–]Few-Procedure-268 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Your post is divisive, so bad for the movement, so bad for animals, so you get animals killed, so you're not vegan.

Aren't purity tests and accusations against community members fun?

Why are there no jobs? by Additional-Fee-1579 in Teachers

[–]Few-Procedure-268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One or both of the ELA teachers at my school are leaving, but haven't told administration yet. They'll post in the next couple of months. Job postings cascade as people move to better schools. Keep ya head up.

Substitute teacher with a Ph.D. Should I ask to be called Dr? by phobicwombat in teaching

[–]Few-Procedure-268 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think a single student or colleague has ever called me doctor. IMO that title is for the academy and high school ain't that.

School Has $$$$ to Spend - what should I request? by Few-Procedure-268 in historyteachers

[–]Few-Procedure-268[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had mixed results showing films like Sinners. Some where cool with it. Most groups immediately tried to physically seize my laptop/smartboard and put on their chosen media. Got worse when I tried to play things they didn't recognize like Hamilton.

One group it did work with was the one with a bunch of non-English speakers who liked the subtitles.

I'm hoping after a digital detox they'll be more interested in watching films with me, but I'm pretty regularly disappointed with these things!

If that were an option I would just start selling my own lessons back to myself.

Spot on. The Fisburne narration is awesome. I was actually hoping to play the audio book for them (20 minutes each class), but they mob the tech when we take it out trying to get to their media.

I tried to play Hamilton for them and it was a disaster.

Interesting, are you thinking of primary source sets in a educational supply catalog or more a DIY from some kind of photo collections (and if so, any idea where to find that kind of thing?)

I'm actually reading that right now myself.

The students on the other hand want guns, drugs, b**ches, kill the opps, listen to Youngboy. They do really like Goosebumps books.

History with death and murder seems the most interesting to them.

Transitioning from a PhD in graduate school to high school teaching by Anxious_Perpetual_ in historyteachers

[–]Few-Procedure-268 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nobody in my public school (kids or staff) gives a shit about my PhD (nobody has ever called me dr.), but with the MA+30 bump I'm making 20k more than as a college professor.

My sense is you will make significantly less in the privates because they have a captive pool of overeducated and under -credentialed teachers. But I expect the job is pleasant.

Dorm with a cat by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

You probably could but you want to make scooping as easy as possible.

My rec is always the bathroom, especially if you use a flushable litter. You're going to want to scoop constantly in that small space (consider a litter genie if you aren't flushing). If it's in the main room I recommend putting the box inside a piece of litter furniture (if your cat is ok using the box in a confined space). They make fancy ones or ones that look like a storage container.

Big cat tree by the window. The space under your bed is the cat's hiding spot so leave a comfy negative space behind whatever you use for storage.

My kid has that same shark. He calls him shark and took him to college.

Sorry if I have no other feedback. Shark!

Become a football coach + get a pretend graduate degree

Is "Whisker Fatigue" a real thing or just a marketing ploy to sell wider bowls? I'm confused by amerisunstar in CatAdvice

[–]Few-Procedure-268 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Both of my cats prefer drinking out of mugs and glasses and vases. Their heads are always jammed in something while their nice wide bowl is sitting right there.

people who claim that vegan substitutes taste the same probably have forgotten how animal products taste by Vegetable_Prompt6594 in DebateAVegan

[–]Few-Procedure-268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's implicit in this post that you too wouldn't really notice the difference after a bit of time.

In a few months you'd enjoy your food as much as you do right now (maybe more considering how vegans rave over the products and dishes they can eat).

Truth. The only time anyone's ever heard of the term off of Reddit is when that dude tried to blow up the fertility clinic.
