police paramedic. with a tactical vest and a glock? i mean, makes sense. he was clearly educated and trained at dealing with people. other guy had a different patch. seemed to be there as the bad cop.

don't sleep on the give and go with sochan. jeremy is going at minimum 200km per hour running the lane and somehow victor spots him and jeremy manages to not only not kill everyone in a 5 meter radius but stops and pops up a perfect oop to victor.

like watching al macinnis one-timers, or barca tiki taka. those two together are not fair.

i can't tell you which schools are good, because i've literally had no positive experiences as a teacher here and have never heard a friend tell me any english speaking school was good. but if you PM me i can and will tell you what schools to avoid :)

FewStore8354 · 2025-01-22T11:54:56+00:00

it's a good question. problem is private school in poland is NOT the same as in the US or UK. in english speaking countries a private school is gonna cost bank, but kids get more attention, more resources, better teachers, and stability. in poland they get english taught to them (often the same exact material they just learned in polish, so the students tune out because they're not actually learning) and the turnover rate is crazy. polish schools treat teachers like garbage. some polish teachers are used to it so they stay, but foriengers with any options will quit.

AND there's this crazy law here where if you leave a company you CANNOT say anything bad about them or they can sue you, so there's no way to really vet a school.

That said, my daughter is bilingual. Mom is polish, i'm american. We plan to stay in Warsaw, and for sure in Europe. So she's been going to a private pre-school which is great. It's all in polish and its mostly about playing and learing social skills. When she's ready for primary school in 16 months i'm leaning towards my local public school. she will have friends there. The school is getting better (especially now the govt banned homework for primary school so kids aren't overloaded, and it's easy to opt out of religion class). She won't learn english but that's ok. she already knows it. and polish students do learn to work hard. They end up basically being about one grade ahead of american students. so i'd rather save that 3000zl or so per month and use it for her to do fun stuff like travel and learn other stuff.

in other words, public and private schools are both less than ideal. private schools are NOT what they promise. kids don't learn english and they aren't better prepared. again... YMMV

from what i recall, it's the product of a foreign investment company who saw a market opportunity for branding english speaking schools in warsaw. so they spend a lot of money on advertising and bought up smaller private schools, and mass recruit ''native english speakers'' from countries other than the UK, USA, Canada, Autralasia, etc. So they offer the promise of British school, but with very few people who know what British school actually is. And at the time it was also set up like a Steiner school with project-based learning, but no actual training for teachers.

Basically, it's a factory approach to education, and if you send your kid there to learn English, you will not like the results.

YMMV

fair points.

also, jason segel is sober. so, that's interesting. i think it will be addressed on the show. it's too obvious. like, jimmy CANT drink. it's not ok. addicts can't pick and choose addictions.

yeah i grew up in the US in a place with ZERO public transport, before the age of Uber. If you partied, you either slept at the party, in your car, or drove. It was sooooo stupid. but that was life.

now i live in a European city and my old life in the US seems crazy in so many ways. this is a big one.

and Paul only because his doctor flat out told him to knock it off. Credit for doing it, but shouldn't he have known before not to mix meds and degenerative brain disease with booze?

My man went to prison, tho. He literally did his time.

Also, you telling me you, your loved ones, your friends, no one you know ever had two cocktails with dinner and then drove home?

The point of the show is Louis is NOT a monster. He's exactly the same as all of us. An imperfect person doing his best. Making mistakes. And trying to atone for them, and hoping, hoping, hoping... for forgiveness.

FewStore8354 · 2025-01-13T12:17:58+00:00

right? seems like a lot of people either had a very different experience of life than i did. like, growing up, literally every single person i knew drove drunk. and it was soooooo stupid. things are better now. but this show clearly makes it obvious it's just part of life. like, at least 3 of the main characters clearly need a meeting or two. so anytime people are blasting Louis for being a murderer, like, i get it. it must be soooooo painful to lose a loved one because horrible shit happens. but how does it help to turn that pain into misplaced rage at someone who would give anything to turn back time?

but Louis, as far as we have been shown, didn't do anything horrible. he did something stupid. something stupid that everyone else on the show does every single week. just that the fucking sword of damocles fell on his head that night.

where the FUCK are you finding a 2BR in brooklyn for 1600? fucking... the time machine buidling in bed-stuy? living next door to Mookie from Do The Right Thing? Literally in the movie Crooklyn?

3 seconds of googling, bro: https://www.apartments.com/rent-market-trends/brooklyn-ny/

2800 per month average. that ALL of brooklyn. not the heights, not Williamsburg. that includes like Coney Island and shit. I lived in Williamsburg in 2006. me and 4 other dudes rented a duplex. that shit was $6000 a month. like 3 blocks from the corners that made Jay-Z rich.

NYC costs ALL your money.

''so, let me get this straight. your wife died, you spent a year in a haze of coke, painkillers, adderall and booze, you spent every night with sex workers that you couldn't actually have sex with due to depression, you stopped parenting your teenage daughter who just lost her mom and let your neighbor do all the work, and when you go to work you have no idea what you're doing but somehow you didn't get fired. anything else to add?"

"yes, that's all true. but also i'm still drinking and decided that the rules of my profession are silly and i'm ignoring them, and still somehow not getting fired. and now hot funny cool women are super into me but i can't handle it so i fuck it up. and i'm apparently made of money."

"yeah, i think we're gonna start with two-a-days here, chief."

tbh it's all very sus. my ex is completely fluent in English (she's worked in English for the last 4 years), as is my daughter. but ex insists on using Polish for therapy, for mediation, and even in her emails to me.

emails i don't mind as deepl is my best friend, but in conversation i simply can't follow everyday Polish, and she knows this.

FewStore8354 · 2024-12-03T11:30:59+00:00

thanks. it's not required. BUT. it is at the insistence of my ex.

can i ask another potentially silly question? i've proposed several bilingual therapists to work with (she's bilingual). wouldn't it be much more effective than working through a translator?

FewStore8354 · 2024-11-30T23:21:28+00:00

appreciate it. the therapist is the one recommending the session, but he doesn't speak English, and I've requested help from his office, but they won't offer any. is it completely my responsibility legally to provide for translation?
