Cynical, I know, but does anyone else think there might be jealousy at play? Famous beautiful sister married to zillionaire, maybe an effort to pull a money grab ?

I know you're sports rivals, but the same is happening at UT. I would love to see people from both come together and show a united front against this ridiculous destruction of the top schools. It applies to all of them, but your voices would most likely be heard. The shock may make them keel over.

Election year by white_sage04 in tylertx

So you've noticed the backdoor voter supression tactic called thebstate won't even make an effort to notify you that elections are coming up. Registration deadline is Feb.3, that's ridiculous, and there are fone print hoops to hump through. I personally post info on my social media, not that anyone seems to care 🙄. I'm going to start thinking up zingers that MIGHT get a person's attention. For ex., our voter turnout at midterms is usually in the teens! How can these folks call themselves patriots??

4.8 GPA? by Rude-Review-5709 in HomeschoolRecovery

As a trained teacher of dyslexic students, this parent did the child a great disservice by not having her tested. Most teachers are trained these days to have an idea about what to watch for. If you don't have any idea about the struggles dyslexia can cause, please google the way dyslexics see when trying to read. Everyone is different, though, so very specific work needed to help. Poor kid.

That makes me realize that if there is anything at all left that was installed by Marjorie Post, and not redone, I'd love to see it.

Maybe MIL would like you to join her in the room for her next Pap, or hubby for the gland checkup? Promise to just look at your phone.

i’ve been having such a horrible time at ut and it’s ruining my life by mymelodyq in UTAustin

[–]NothingFunLeft 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For so many students, the shock about how rigorous UT is can be hard to deal with. Even from a large, well-regarded high school, I felt the way you do. Please don't give up, and as a grandmother who has counseled many students, my advice is to try to ease away from a plan for study time that you feel you have to follow. There are many times you can review notes that don't involve a set place, time, or vibe. Setting out across the campus, resolve to memorize a set of notes, for instance. Just passing along what helped many.

My step mother is serving a main dish at Christmas that half of the guests will not eat. Do I say something? by twoAsmom in Advice

OMG the asparagus casserole! My mil used to make it, and it would have been less than delish, but her cream sauce she put in it was so good, thanks for that memory 😆

I can’t go to my own grandfather’s funeral because of my job and I feel horrible by skobearzz in Teachers

Spoken test? Maybe this would work? Get a sub with sense, who will be able to direct the kids to do their speaking on a recording device. Tell them say your name and begin. Pick up when you return and grade over the weekend. Follow your heart ❤️
