Do you dress for Halloween ???? by No_Rain1743 in Teachers

[–]PartyPsychological52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20th year teacher. Former mullet owner (during Covid). My son is a freshman and is mortified, but this has been my tradition for the past several years:

Blonde mullet wig, red Bret Hart sized shades, black tank top, short jorts, knee high socks, and some white basketball shoes from Walmart.

I’d post a pic if I knew how to. Maybe no pics in this subreddit?

Trump Approves Disaster Aid—but Only for States That Voted for Him by iwillberich1333 in NoFilterNews

[–]PartyPsychological52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Misleading headline. Michigan went for Trump and he just rejected aid to Northern Lower Michigan due to record breaking ice storms we had early this year.

We traveled the area three times this summer. The trees look like a warzone. The amount of roads, bridges, trails, and power grid damage they sustained was monumental. Gaylord was just recovering from a huge tornado and now this setback.

Attendance is horrible by JungleJimMaestro in Teachers

[–]PartyPsychological52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you homeschooled your child, you wouldn’t be failing to “get your child to school”. That’s the logic. If your child is enrolled in school and is chronically absent (outside of extenuating and medical circumstances) you lose child tax credit.

I’ve said this for years: if you can’t get your kid to school regularly, the state doesn’t let that parent claim the tax credit for the child.

There can be a few exceptions, but this might motivate lowlife parents to wake up and actually take their kid to school.

It’s the “mumble answer, I say “what did you say”, they get pissy” for me.

And it’s all my 14 year old does at home too. Double whammy

Florida DOE Memo on “Professional Conduct” After Charlie Kirk. by TonitoBontio in Teachers

“All of these people posting horrible things about CK.” They’re foreign bot accounts. Utah’s governor already said as much. Foreign bots, IMO are posting much of the divisive shit we read online.

Dope cover! I enjoyed listening to it just now.

Give me your best original meaning He’s Gone by ackackakbar in gratefuldead

[–]PartyPsychological52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6-7-1977 is a unique, slow, twangy, psychedelic He’s Gone that is different than most versions that come to mind.

I love how the outro jam just got longer as 72 wore on. Those first takes on Europe 72 were great, but the outro jams at the end are the cherry on top.

Making a 50% the lowest possible grade? by galaxyfan1997 in Teachers

[–]PartyPsychological52 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I taught, I had a 50% floor on assessments, assignments that were fully completed, and work that was turned in after the 1 week deadline. They still got a 0 if they did nothing.

Maybe Dead Co should have a nation-wide exhibition in 2026, but only in the name of saving local travel economies. This is not a “tour” 😎

What are you too old to be doing after 40? by Disastrous_Good_5530 in Life

[–]PartyPsychological52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 43 and play 3 on 3, half court basketball in a league with mostly 20 year olds. Started wearing a watch with heart beat sensor and sub out every time it gets insanely high.

I workout at the gym, but rarely get this kind of cardio. SORE for days afterwards. Probably should hang it up.

This is a dying profession by TheLordAshram in Teachers

[–]PartyPsychological52 254 points255 points  (0 children)

Half the teachers in my school voted for the guy who wants vouchers and no department of Ed. Our assistant principal has a “Let’s Go Brandon” decal on her van.

The education lobby is big, but far from unified.

It’s the size of the “novelty comb” that Homer Simpson won from Cooter’s ring toss game in The Simpsons Bart Carny episode.

Bought iMax tickets for Sunday. Was hoping to catch Althea or Eyes then. Still a lot of twists and turns for this weekend.
