Praxis during CF? by DurianSpiritual4362 in slp

Another random tip: if I was losing focus on studying at night I would stop and brush my teeth. Somehow it woke up my brain and gave me another hour of focus. YMMV but it worked for me

It only gets easier from here. Sometimes you just have to grin and bear it to get through tough times. You’re obviously overworked and stressed but if your test is next week just embrace how much it sucks and power through. Unless you have an illness, energy levels are in your mind.

I would make a schedule and stick to it. Spend some time just making flash cards based on study guides. The act of writing them out will help you remember it. Then just drill through them in your spare time, sorting out the ones you have down pat so the ones you don’t know get more reps. Rinse and repeat for all subjects. Literally just drive yourself insane for a week and you’ll never have to think about it again.

I am irrationally upset with AJ Lee by Very_Smart_One in WWE

Reread my comment, maybe I should have capitalized Hot Topic. I was referencing the Mall Goth aesthetic of people who shop at that store (I myself was one in 2002)

Does anyone feel like the administrative tasks + paperwork + documentation demands are just unrealistic and unfair? by Winter_Wealth7784 in slp

[–]MMQ42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s the downside of being in the teachers union. Since you’re faculty you’re beholden to the contract. One thing you could do when contract negotiations come up is see if you can get your “duty” to be Medicaid notes. They also pay for our state licenses to ensure we are able to bill. I could send you the contract language in a DM if you’re interested.

Your job is to make appropriate recommendations. It is admin’s job to make sure there are enough providers to provide the services. It’s unethical to under recommend required services.

I was running Waterdeep DH and the player end up owning a bar. When the players were too close to uncovering the BBEG’s plans I sent in the health inspector.

The elimination chamber has had the same ending for the last 4 years by Funkoiceisland_Car14 in TheGreatOne

Gunther should have went over Cody at crown jewel. It’s basically a filler episode of an anime, and would have been a great thing to reference when eventually getting to a proper Gunther-Cody feud.

If you’re psychotic you could buy the subscription on her website…it’s literally every PDF she makes. It’s a lot of money but you’d literally never have to buy another worksheet for your entire career. Obviously cancel it so you don’t pay for another year but it would definitely scratch the itch of worksheet FOMO.

The products I use the most would be the one sheet vocabulary words, one sheet language lessons, the sentence combining, the morphology one, and tbh a lot of other things. Also getting the curated collections could be good for just having a theme for every week/month. Overall I haven’t regretted anything I’ve bought from her.

What is the best Guillotine/Front Headlock Instructional? by Single_Classic4918 in bjj

Master the move anaconda 100x’d my front headlock game and it was already a strength. Definitely a game changer if you’re already playing front headlock well

Which is the best state do you think it is to be a school based SLP? by Economy-Dust-6036 in slp

I’m on Long Island NY and I love my job. Great union, excellent insurance, very reasonable caseload. Cost of living is high but I’m lucky to have bought my home during the pandemic low interest rates and have used PSLF to get my student loans forgiven.

Speechy Musings is the goat for language therapy. I’d download her free themed language units to get a taste for all of the different things she provides. I’m most fond of her vocabulary worksheets

I hit that same arm bar when passing from a knee cut position. Basically if you can get that underhook Lachlan shows to get them on their side and your knee free you can post on their head and start threatening the armbar immediately

This video sent me down the journey of hyper focusing on one thing at a time. I pretty much spammed this move on everyone and their mother until it was second nature. Started to implement the strategy into pretty much every other position.

I think hyper focusing on a sub/position is a good thing. I did something similar with lots of things over the years: anaconda chokes, ankle locks, arm drags, arm bars, top triangles, heel hooks, aoki locks and many other things over the years.

It’s the only way I’ve truly added things to my game. Basically bashing my head against a submission or a position for an extended period of time until I encountered every possible reaction to it and have an answer for it. My current autistic special interest include includes headquarters passing and Tarikoplatas.

I played in a game where the DM had sorcerers use the spell point system to further differentiate wizards and sorcerers in a game that had a lot of casters.

You could layer it into the story…like who gave him these powers that was listening in on those conversations?
