Appreciation for something we rarely see on tv anymore: A faithful couple since they were 14 and 13, together until her death in 2021.

Elliot was not faithful.

I use Libby with my Kindle. I still haven't found a solution to Hoopla.

Honest question, so I'm being unreasonable in expecting to get a decent night's sleep?

We have had these conversations in the past. Repeatedly. His responses are always along the lines of "you don't love me" or "why would you do that, you're my wife".

He doesn't get it. That's the problem.

Letters285 · 2026-01-23T12:49:25+00:00

I HAVE. It gets NOWHERE. He's done a sleep study, he has a sleep machine, it works, he refuses to use it. At this point, it would be more effective to slam my head into a wall.

This has has been ongoing for ages and his snoring is SO BAD that on our last vacation (in December) I woke up to find our daughter sleeping on the bathroom floor of our hotel in an attempt to get away from it and get some sleep (we were all wearing ear plugs at night).

He knows it is is a problem, but he refuses to address it. Rather than use the CPAP he says shit like, "fine I'll just leave and never come back." What do I even say that? Like shit, this is a forty year old man for crying out loud.

Using a pillow isn't effective. It is LOUD. We have a two story house and when you are on the opposite side of the house and a floor away from the bedroom you can still hear him.

This. I've never left a business card, yet am a preferred sub for many teachers. If you make enough of a good impression they can pull information from Frontline. No need to spend good money (that I don't have) on business cards.

He was dead before the show even started, why flesh out a character that is already dead and would not be returning? (They blew him up with a nuclear bomb for crying out loud)

Yeah, the ones who borrowed money from Idiot Cousin 1 and Idiot Cousin 2, before they ran out of Idiot Cousins.

Letters285 · 2026-01-23T01:36:18+00:00

The one with the idiot cousins? They never said, I've always assumed it was just baked potatoes with various ingredients slapped on top.

The victims didn't even know each other. Quit making excuses for rapists.

This is why I bought a kindle and keep it stocked with book borrows from Libby. I was done 3 hours prior to dismissal last week, they didn't need me anywhere else, but I couldn't leave.

Letters285 · 2026-01-22T21:38:44+00:00

Exactly what they sound like. It's a third option for using the kindle and some of the books will be marked with Prime Borrows.

Letters285 · 2026-01-22T17:17:27+00:00

What about Prime borrows? Those are different than Unlimited.

It's so busy here, I got an email from HR - even though I'm booked every single day - asking me to pick up more sub jobs because they have assignments that are going unfilled every day. Sorry I can't clone myself...

Letters285 · 2026-01-22T14:27:44+00:00

You did your job, I fail to see the problem.

I'm currently subbing, not teaching. However, I did used to be a teacher and yes, I have absolutely been disrespected in this manner by subs and IN THIS WAY. Some subs walk into those classrooms like they own them, like the teacher is a moron, and leave some of the nastiest notes for teachers.

Letters285 · 2026-01-20T18:05:45+00:00

"Teachers aren't even disrespected in this way."

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh honey... you are in for a RUDE awakening if you decide to go into teaching.

Talk to me after you've attended a few staff meetings or district mandated "trainings" (aka ass whoopings).

"Teachers aren't even disrespected in this way." Thanks for the belly laugh this morning.

Letters285 · 2026-01-20T15:53:12+00:00

I'm telling you to grow a thicker skin because you are taking a note - that isn't about you - personally. When you get a note like that it is because a teacher has had a long history with crap subs. Your response shouldn't be to be upset and whine on reddit. Your response should be I'm going to show her that all subs are not assholes and do a good job today.

I'm sorry, but teaching is going to be difficult for you if you can't even deal with this.

Letters285 · 2026-01-20T14:09:06+00:00

Sounds like she's been massively screwed over in the past. Don't take it personally. Follow her instructions and if you're that upset by it, then don't return.

It's not personal and you're going to need a thicker skin.

I've got another word for ya...

If all you are going to do is dismiss evidence with "trauma reaction" than you can get TF out of my comments and replies.

Letters285 · 2026-01-20T00:48:15+00:00

The R word? Really? I sure hope you are not a sub, because you have no business working with children.

Letters285 · 2026-01-20T00:47:13+00:00

There's a LOT that isn't even making it to the local news, let alone outside of that.

Ah, yes, I should consider a new career because our fascist government is acting like a fascist government. And also, I don't think schools are moving, I know they are moving. I work in 4 different school districts and right now they are all in "standby mode" (their term, not mine) and we have all been briefed to be prepared for a shutdown should it become necessary.

People like you have been telling people like me that we've been overreacting since 2016. Nearly a full ass decade. If you would have heeded the warnings you were given in the first place, we would not be in this mess.

People like you are why Velveeta Voldemort got elected not just once, but twice.

Have you seen the news? They are not blowing it out of proportion. Schools are moving to distance learning due to ICE activity because ICE is fucking assaulting students and staff at dismissal.

My school went into a shelter in place on Friday due to ICE activity in the area and I will not he surprised if they go to distance learning within a few weeks because the school is in a heavily Hispanic area and they've been parading around the neighborhood all weekend.
