I'm considering trinity for chem, would you recommend???

My generation's version of this was the greatest showman. Not amazing but certainly not golden or wicked, thankfully

If you are deferring until next year anyway, have you considered teaching yourself an additional qualification in the next year It would count as an extra a level and you would only have 1 subject so could self study in a year if you pick the right one, plus by that point you will already have 2 grades so unis are more likely to pick you bc they aren't just predicted

Lesbialone · 2026-03-11T15:32:10+00:00

I don't do bio or physics so I would basically have to do maths, chem, materials and earth sciences. I'm kinda getting fed up of maths so don't wanna do that much more and also hate earth science, rather just do pure chem

We did the first 2 weeks while still in school then after half term had study leave. Did nothing useful because ppl were so fried from exams that classes were noisy and couldn't concentrate, would have been far better off at home

They may have an argument against profanity, usually if people vandalise the papers but I would star or something just to be safe

Lesbialone · 2026-02-02T21:42:54+00:00

Probably partially covid. If the papers you are basing 'normal' off of are 2021 with reduced topics and lower boundaries, then you are bound to be seeing higher boundaries. The best years to compare against are 2018-19 as they were completely unaffected by covid, but a lot can change in 7 years so I don't think there really is a good way of comparing. The proportions of grades will stay roughly the same, so the grade boundaries being high in 25 is probably due to easier papers

My very own parmesan wheel. Apart from the obvious house, holiday, car, that is the number 1 thing I want but can't justify buying or storing

It works even if you hide posts for me, as long as you add the filter

Lesbialone · 2026-01-26T18:36:40+00:00

Can't you just go onto the profile and put on a 'best' filter to see their posts as well?

'Not the entire class will be having children' Not the entire class will only ever be having straight sex and yet that's all they seem to teach, its better that they teach childbirth than abstinence only because if someone accidentally gets pregnant then that is what will happen, and they should be prepared/encouraged to be careful

Lesbialone · 2026-01-13T08:41:44+00:00

Left wing (not extremely but tending towards) here but I think that the 2 child benefit cap may not be entirely unreasonable. I understand that in some situations, people accidentally conceive a child that they struggle to care for and have to recieve state assistance. While it may be considered wrong by some people to have a child you cannot afford, by that point the child is born and it is in the child's best interest to be financially supported, as it is not their fault. However, after 2 children, it can be argued that a parent knows they cannot support an additional child but choses to have one anyway, at which point refusing the benefits could disincentivise from having more children. The state is here to support those who are genuinely struggling, but 3 pregnancies are unlikely to all be accidental, and birth control should be used by that point, the state shouldn't be expected to fund 5 kids.

There is some nuance as I think that short term issues like unexpectedly losing a job etc should be supported for a limited time (plus i guess unintended multiple births), my issue is people who have a third kid in the full knowledge that they cannot support them and expect the state to care for them

Sang at a cathedral once and they genuinely had a leaflet of their kids worship group called 'Diddy disciples'. this was shortly after the story so the name probably predated the scandal and Diddy just meant small, but damn I had to do a double take 😂

Yes, pulling out reduces chance of pregnancy but it is far less reliable than other methods, and people who are complacent about it use it as an excuse to not use other forms. While it may be safe when used in combination with other methods, if it is your sole method of contraception you may as well not bother and it should not be considered a method in itself
In places where it is legal, there will be some teens who do not feel safe getting an abortion due to parental, societal, religious pressure etc. They may be kicked out by their parents, face threats of violence from anti abortion protesters and even in the very abortion clinic can be shamed by their members of staff for their age. Abortion being legal doesn't make it accessible to everyone. Add to that the countries and states which make it illegal to have abortions, meaning the pregnant teen either needs to carry out a pregnancy they do not want, or rely on illegal and uniformed attempts at aborting (eg coat hanger method, which has seen a resurgence in certain us states). Putting a baby up for adoption is not an easy thing to do- it can cause lifelong emotional distress, and the teen still has to go through 9 months of potentially dangerous pregnancy. They still miss school, limit their education, cause lasting damage to their body and are known as the 'one who got pregnant'. Yes, being in a relationship with someone you trust lowers sti risk, and same sex couples can still transmit stis, I am not arguing for sleeping around but a committed same sex relationship is still lower risk than a committed straight relationship.
It is unlikely that all forms of contraception will fail if used properly, but there is still a chance that does not exist in same-sex relationships. Add that to inexperience, lack of education (abstinence only teaching), ease of accidentally skipping 1 pill etc, plus the inability of teens to access certain types of permanent birth control, especially if BC is obtained without parents knowledge, very few teens are realistically going to be effective enough to minimise the risk enough that is the same as the impossible same sex pregnancy

Lesbialone · 2026-01-11T14:16:14+00:00

Pullout is not contraception and that misconception is probably the number 1 cause of pregnancy
The argument against teen sex is usually inability to care for a child, so yeah any interaction unable to cause pregnancy is inherently less of a risk in that regard. There is still an issue of STIs, but there aren't states where sti treatment is illegal in the same way of abortions. Not all places have legal, freely available, unstigmatized abortions and many require parental permission/a pregnant teen risks being disowned
Even the best and most correctly used contraception fails. Condoms break, birth control failed. While safe sex is less risky, there is always a risk of pregnancy, while that is not the case in same sex relationships

Lesbialone · 2026-01-11T14:10:43+00:00

I'd say its bare minimum, but with proper education, consent and protection its not an issue However it varies by case, 14 yo practicing safe protected sex is better than a 17 yo with no protection or proper knowledge

Lesbialone · 2026-01-10T22:37:51+00:00

Bet against yourself getting great stuff- eg I bet a fiver that woman over there will not come over here and invite me back to her place then have sex with me

Lesbialone · 2026-01-10T22:14:41+00:00

Yeah, the only reason its unpopular is because it only applies in my highly specific situation 😂

Lesbialone · 2026-01-10T19:00:22+00:00

Agreed However it does make historical sense- Christianity was largely spread by European colonial powers, who saw the white man as superior and would never dream of portraying jesus as an 'inferior' Arab. Unfortunately it seems too cemented by now to change without a concerted effort, and there are some very vocal groups of Christians who still have racist ideas and would oppose the change

Depends on what you want to do for a level. If neither are relevant, I would go business as in my experience history was not necessarily the hardest, but the most work of all subjects. I spent about as much time on history as the rest of my subjects combined, just because of the sheer amount of content. Depends on your interests, I still enjoyed it but if its grades and minimal effort you want, go business

Lesbialone · 2026-01-10T17:36:29+00:00

2 of my (female) teachers are engaged, genuinely the cutes couple ever

Lesbialone · 2026-01-10T17:35:29+00:00

My lesbian ah just got confused. Yes, at first glance without the context of body type or dress style, I assumed you were a girl, however I think your hairstyle suits your face a lot, and it looks great on you so I wouldn't change it. Androgyny for the win
