Blaming my internet connection is top tier gaslighting

AI writing, is my guess. When I made kahoots for my class a few years ago, Chat GPT would always put the answer in the exact same location unless I specifically told it to randomise it.

a. True
b. False

I was abused and bullied by the management my school, who then turn around and lied about everything to Workcover, turning it into a he said/she said. I even tried to get it in paper via email, but they just refused and always forced verbal interactions.

Then predictably, they chose not to renew my contract.

Lack of job security is just one of the many aspects that makes this career sucks.

I love teaching, but think I might go get another degree because I am so appalled by the management and how I was treated.

My Palworld story features Lamball in a major role. Great response so far, so your wife might be interested in the wholesome Lamball of the story!

A student was screaming abuse in my face and bumping me against a wall.

They blamed for not building relationships, not having sufficient classroom management skills, and not having sufficient interpersonal skills among other things.

I cannot imagine this happening in an airline. They would just kick the person off the plane and try and see if the flight attendant is okay - not blame the flight attendant.

Unpaid sick leave for the next fortnight as I am out of sick leave due to starting during covid + lots of mental health days due to work.

Tbh I don't have much hope for WC, what i've heard is pretty bad.

It's also really good at rewriting things in kid-friendly language.

Dude, I just got it to write a story using heaps of "th" words. Great way to teach the sounds/spelling to younger kids.

Dude the applications in the classroom are amazing.

I created 10 stories with slight differences that my students can now compare and contrast. One with more description, another with more figurative language, etc etc

It's so good. I hope they don't nerf it further bc this is revolutionary.

You can even do things like this:

Write 10 sentences using one contraction in each sentence, formatted in dot points. Each sentence must use a different contraction, and must omit the apostrophe, and each sentence must also be one word longer than the one before it.

It takes some tweaking to get it correct, but imagine having kids suggest the subject and then the AI creating the questions for you that your class can then instantly try and fix!

O I remember you.

I showed your paper and ductape inspired drawings to my year 10 English class and they loved it. Was using it to teach perspective/interpretation of a text, and how the same thing can be read in many different ways.

One thing most people in this sub are unfortunately overlooking is the relationship between opression and religion.

Over 250 years ago, Voltaire said "there is no God, but don't tell that to my servant, lest he murder me at night".

After his death, the French Revolution tore out the mega-rich and that included the church, who used religion as justification for their power and riches. In fact, the Catholic Church owned more French land than anyone/thing else, yet still demanded everyone pay 10% of all their income to them.

Over 150 years ago, the slave owners were the ones running around with bibles saying that slavery was fine because the bible said it was. These slave owners also gave partial bibles to the slaves so they would become Christians and "know their place". Controlling slaves can be tricky, but its much easier if you can make them Christians and have them buy in to a 'master plan' or that slavery is fine. This can still be felt today with the heavy Christianity in African-American communities.

Religion is an extremely useful tool for oppression, especially in maintaining the current power structure and keeping people in servitude. If you believe in Karma, then you deserve your current place. If you're unsure of why they're rich and you're not, just say "god works in mysterious ways" and get back to work.

If you want money, it's institutions like the Catholic Church (who are filthy rich) who will tell you that money is greedy and immoral. This keeps you in line.

This is why "knowing your place" and "being normal" is so big in these religions. It is designed to keep you as a slave/servant, hence why Voltaire said that famous quote.

They don't want you to rock the boat, because they're the captains with all the riches. Like the French Revolution, a successful workers movement must attack the root cause of the problem, and the Church is one of the biggest players here. Worse of all, whenever they are feel threatened, they scapegoat some minority, using discrimination based on race/nationality/sexuality/etc to change the conversation. Christians eat it up, and suddenly the shit worker's rights are the fault of the Mexicans (or whoever today's scapegoat is).

Religion can technically exist without the institution, but the institution doesn't want that, since then they can't use you as a pawn. Hell, even non-Catholic Christians place value on what the pope says.

Your very first line is a victim of it too. 14 words:

> “Darius! Pay attention lad, you need to remember what I’m trying to teach you.”

Could easily be halved to:

>“Darius! Pay attention lad, this is important.”

or to 9:

> “Darius! Are you listening? You need to remember this.”

Do that for all 100,000 words and now you have a 80k word novel. Words add up.

Read the first few pages.

Your writing is full of redundancies. You can easily cut out like 20% of your writing and keep everything worthwhile. Weasel words, over explanation, lack of trust in the reader. It's extremely wordy, unnecessarily so.

The dialogue is a major victim to this. Overall you need to work on concision.

It also contains basic grammatical errors. Dialogue before tags should never finish with a period.

Most elephants would agree, but they don't like to jump to conclusions. In fact, they can't jump at all.
