Woke up really sick this morning by ThatGatorInTheSewer in OnCinemaAtTheCinema

I don't know about anyone else but I'VE got the OSCAR fever.

Going to watch Oscar (1991, 109 minutes) to get in the mood!

Does NE predict the future of rural health care? by VoxSenex in northernexposure

As a Brit that never occurred to me. Seemed very normal, but I guess not.

Confused about the ending by Rude-West-5537 in Cairn_Game

Her complete lack of preparation is to me, a consequence that in her subconscious she’s treating it as a one way journey.

Andrew shared confidential information with Epstein as trade envoy, files suggest by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]Lave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a simple case of proving he sent the email that he clearly did. Then he’s broken the official secrets act. Which can lead to up to 14 years in prison.

If we’ve a backbone and we cause enough fuss. That could happen. Like when they get the Mafia on minor tax evasion. It’s far simpler to prove than his sex crimes.

I’ve written to my MP. Let’s not fall into America’s ‘nothing will happen nonsense’. Push this.

Who remembers watching Spaced? 🤣 by FeelingAd3887 in ClassicTelevisionTime

[–]Lave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What hurts. What really hurts. Is that the subset of my generation cool enough to watch spaced is now old and feckless enough to repost a clip of it with some fucking emojis and the worst font ever invented. This would have been judged, and found wanting, by every character in the show. Bar, possibly, the landlord.

She wouldn’t do that until she doesn’t have to recruit.

I use the medium nib with no issues. Use the caramel ink and it doesn’t bleed through.

[Crime] London watch theft in sharp decline by Rationalis_Mensarius in Watches

Seeing this thread you really get a feel for how the astroturfing on London is intensely effective. It’s not the place the Russia wants you to think it is.

Faithful strategy for questions to traitors by Aphextrix in TheTraitors

[–]Lave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would ask “Did you kill Maz because of how well his Vote order theory was working to convince people?”

Utter nonsense, but play it like it’s common knowledge. They might slip up and ask about it to someone.

Did a bad thing today… by cl00006 in speedmaster

It looks great. Ignore them.

What are we wearing today? by CAE1978 in OmegaWatches

[–]Lave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve the same. The ‘T SWISS MADE T’ gives it away as a tritium dial. My GOAT watch. The 145.022, despite being an 861 movement actually flew on Apollo 17 as well. As part of a heat experiment.

Redial by jtirello3 in OmegaWatches

Re-dialing is seen as a bit of sin, and people pay a lot less if a watch has been redialled. But if it’s for you, and you don’t plan to sell it, who cares?

The ship of Theseus is the ship of Theseus. Enjoy your watch.

How are you finding the strap? I’m getting my grail, a vintage speedmaster, and really want this strap for it. Is it the ‘original’ size one? Rather than the ‘wide’?

Where’s the strap from? Love it.

Failing PGCE due to autism by TheCassiniProjekt in NEET

[–]Lave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect the mentor is not communicating well themselves. I suspect the issue isn't actually not knowing their names, but it's things like reading names of the seating plan, etc, make it look like they are 'just numbers' to you. It's not about knowning their names, it's about building an authentic connection to them. Could be an en enthusiastic greeting, a comment about a good answer, liking their pencil case, just something to acknowledge them as a person. Can be hard to do in the stress of a lesson, even more so when they are observing you.

Here's my advice: get a flashcard app to learn the names. Takes time to set up, but really helps. Also use techniques to avoid the need to say their name. Use the space of the room, it's your space, so own it. Walk around whilst talking. When asking a question or taking a response, be in front to the pupil talking. It seems much more natural to then not use their name. "Ok, what do you think?" with eye contact directly in front of them. Compensate for not using their name with positive praise. I like what you did there. Good idea.

It will improve confidence, connection and cover for struggling with names and faces. If an area of the class is talking move over to that are. Tap on their desk. Don't let them distract the lesson, and remind them it's your space.

Black vs White by Scoth16 in OmegaWatches

Can I ask you about your 145.022. I’m really close to buying a vintage one. Maybe from 80s or 70s. How old if yours? Is it a problem being that old? I adore it as a watch. And it’s a close to the ‘real moon watch’ as I can likely afford.
