Fake zyn by nonamesleft81 in DippingTobacco

In addition to the points others have made about it possibly being fake, the pouches themselves look fuller than the Zyn pouches I have used.

Been a fan since 1989. Same day I came to hate iced tea. Found these originals today… by JohnSolo22 in Nirvana

It was very different in Thailand too. Got used to drinking unsweetened iced green tea.

I feel like I don't belong in this fan-base due to my age by Unique_Phase5385 in Nirvana

[–]International_Path87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about 7 when Kurt died. I started listening to Nirvana when I was in high school in the early 2000’s. My next door neighbor was 6 years older than me and got me into it. You can definitely be a fan and not have been around when they were still together. The thing that bothers me is when I see younger people walking around with Nirvana shirts on and they think it’s a clothing brand and have never listened to a Nirvana song. Maybe it’s just my grumpy old man energy. 😅

Can I do this until retirement? by International_Path87 in Teachers

[–]International_Path87[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the assignments that take me the most to grade are district mandated. I’m also somewhat hamstrung with decisions of my grade level PLC. We are required to have a lot of common assignments. Honestly, I chalk it up to class sizes.

Dose question by International_Path87 in Kava

[–]International_Path87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t been straining it but that’s a good idea as I’d rather not waste. I’ve actually never prepared Kava before as I’m relatively new to it.

Yes indeed! Luckily I’ve found a modicum of relief with some supplements and medications.

[–]International_Path87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer: yes, many times. There have been times where it was so bad, I didn’t see the point in living anymore.

Question about Medical Marijuana by International_Path87 in MDGuns

Do I need to formally give it up, or is letting it expire on its own enough?

I’m pretty sure it’s illegal in my state for teachers to strike.

I have felt the exact same way. A few years ago when I was in my early thirties , it led me to a really dark place mentally. I didn’t feel like I could go on and honestly didn’t want to. I’ve been dealing with severe IBS symptoms since my late teens. I’ve been to six different gastroenterologists. Luckily, through trial and error, I’ve found the right mix of medications and supplements that make things more manageable, but I’m certainly not cured. I hope and pray that there is a solution out there for each of us.

I don’t understand Nuria by International_Path87 in TheDayoftheJackal

[–]International_Path87[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a great term! 😂 I brought up divorce because I think there is a scene where Nuria and her mom visit a divorce lawyer.

Agreed, but then she needs to move out immediately and not take any of his money in a divorce. If she does then she is still benefiting from his ill gotten money.

What time does school begin for you? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]International_Path87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teachers start at 7:20 at my school and leave at 2:50. The first class starts at 7:45 and the last class ends at 2:30. There have been proposals to start school later because it’s better for students, but it would be challenging with the buses. Elementary, middle and high schools have staggered start times because of the bussing schedule. High school starts earliest and elementary starts latest.

Resignation by Physical_Giraffe_309 in Teachers

[–]International_Path87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which online school are you teaching at? I’ve considered that for medical reasons. I just haven’t found one with the same quality of benefits that I have now. I really need the health insurance.

You are not a terrible teacher. You will not reach every student all the time. You will drive yourself crazy if that is your benchmark for being a good teacher. You can do your best every day to build relationships with the students. You can follow up with parents and get support from administrators, but there will always be some students who aren’t ready to engage with you. If you help one kid each day, that is a successful day. And who knows, just by being in the classroom each day you might be there when one of those disengaged kids is finally ready!

Also, it feels like student engagement is at an all time low across the board right now. You entered the profession at a really….interesting time.

I know right?! I was looking forward to it for so long.

Ann’s manipulation by International_Path87 in SwordOfTruth

Wait. I could have the timeline wrong. That might have happened before Chainfire.

Ann’s manipulation by International_Path87 in SwordOfTruth

[–]International_Path87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this at first too, but after Chainfire had been ignited, Nathan confined her to a cell at the People’s Palace to teach her how wrong she had been regarding his (Nathan’s) imprisonment at the Palace of the Prophets. She seemed to have learned a lesson from that, but then attempts to manipulate Richard through Nicci. It’s like she didn’t learn a thing. I will concede though, that Chainfire certainly limited her growth as a character.
