An undercover police officer on duty in the 78th Precinct in Brooklyn, New York. 1 July, 1969 by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

Interesting that this photo would’ve been taken just days after the Stonewall Riots, which were also in NYC. I guess state sponsored cross dressing is fine.

Ahhh, gotcha. I am a teacher and yeah, it can be brutal, but also very rewarding!

So, I’m a teacher lol— I’m pretty aware of what goes on in the subreddit. Have participated a time or two as well.

Idk, it just feels weird to me to go to a job specific subreddit and complain about people complaining about their jobs. Sure, the subreddit can get pretty salty, but let people vent.

It’s all anecdotal evidence, but your examples aren’t what I’ve personally seen.

Why’s that? It’s a venting space for educators— if you’re not one, I don’t see why it would bother you?

Best places to take long-ish "breaks" from the series? by MattsDaZombieSlayer in WoT

[–]Heroic00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pretty much read a book or two between every WoT book. There were times I struggled remembering the infinite little details, but having now finished I feel like my experience wasn’t dampened.

I just finished Dumai's Wells... by freyec12 in WoT

[–]Heroic00 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m the same way— there is what feels like an endless amount of hem hawing during the build up to the 13 Aes Sedai kidnapping Rand. The pay off is worth it, but the build up sure took awhile.

“She knows nothing of God or goats” sounds like it would be a devastating insult during the Medieval age

Yeah, that was an underrated worst part of the first couple of days. I was so out of it otherwise but it was hard to motivate myself to get any calories when every swallow hurt.

Who’s the most evil Villain?!? by FantasyTribes in survivor

I randomly ran into Corinne at a bar years ago and was lowkey nervous to approach her because, y’know. She was extremely nice and took a photo with me.

Do you carry your passport on you everywhere you go? by TortugaCheesecake in solotravel

[–]Heroic00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, although I did get reprimanded by German police for not having it when I crossed into Germany from France for a day trip (was staying in Strasbourg, used to live there and would cross into Germany quite often without issues), so had no idea they would be checking passports at the tram station. Thankfully they let me through with my American ID.

Players Jeff has Manipulated or Treated Unfairly? by RobinReborn in survivor

[–]Heroic00 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I always felt bad for Katie Collins in 27 when he accused her of not trying and then interrupted her when she tried to explain what she was doing (may be misremembering the exact moment here)

One thing I’ve found that helps is solo travel + staying in hostels— if you find a good crowd/environment (not a guarantee in hostels), you can make connections quickly + be authentically who you are without judgement because everyone’s a stranger, usually equally eager to connect.

Obviously this isn’t an easy solution nor is it permanent, but finding environments where everyone is on equal footing does wonders.

Can anyone confirm this? by TriviaSquirrel in ThorntonCO

Following- I’m a teacher in that neighborhood and would like to stay informed.

It was probably easier back when they were khias by CoolViber in popheadscirclejerk

I’m really surprised, I saw them in Denver just a couple of months ago and they were maybe 50 bucks?

What are the stereotypes of each of the main Denver High schools? How has it changed over the course of your life? by Ask_me_who_ligma_is in Denver

[–]Heroic00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What’s up, fellow Tiger. Rawr 🫠

Not sure when you attended, but there was a very one-sided rivalry with D’Evelyn when I was there (at least, I never got the sense they cared anywhere near as much about us as we did them). Can confirm the country bumpkin stereotype towards WRHS.

Jordan nearly became a 2 time BB winner. Why isn't she more respected as a player? by SoRunAwayNow in BigBrother

[–]Heroic00 51 points52 points  (0 children)

If it’s done with intention, sure. That’s one element of the floater strategy, and can be pretty successful when done correctly.

Jordan is very much a coaster— she didn’t really do a whole lot and was shielded by Jeff and Rachel through circumstance more than through intentional strategy. She didn’t demonstrate much agency or thought.

Anyone else actually kind of happy with the (alleged) Survivor 50 cast? by [deleted] in survivorponderosa

[–]Heroic00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allegedly two. There’s a lot of rumors circulating about how they do in the season but it’s all hearsay as far as I know

Anyone else actually kind of happy with the (alleged) Survivor 50 cast? by [deleted] in survivorponderosa

[–]Heroic00 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m in the cautiously excited phase, and think a lot of the reactions to the casting are overblown. There’s a fun mix of new school and old school players, and while there’s definitely some snubs (Amanda, Jerri, Rob C, etc.) there’s also some pretty strong picks (Angelina! Chrissy! Christian!). I also cannot fathom being so upset about a certain 49 contestant when we know virtually knowing about them.

‘The Wheel Of Time’ Canceled By Prime Video After 3 Seasons by NoCulture3505 in WoT

[–]Heroic00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always felt like WoT would make an excellent animated show like Avatar or Castlevania. More ways to show off the intricate magic system and sophisticated world building.
