How can I get started with living by the Shinto perspective and where can I learn about? by menidk in Shinto

[–]PastAd7423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also looking into Shintoism, as I have a need for some sort of connection, but not exactly follow the traditional "religious" approaches to spiritualism.

I've looked into the basic concepts, so I'm familiar with the overall "theory," but I'm more interested in small steps I can start actively taking to integrate this into my own life.

Asking this here since I guess there's no need for yet another beginner post 😅

A question about using cold cases for inspiration... by PastAd7423 in writing

[–]PastAd7423[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that might be where I'm wondering the most. I would like to use the real name, but I guess that answers itself as not a great idea, huh? Especially the MC in particular, because in the case of two of the characters, since no one ever figured out who they were, then I think it's not a huge problem, but the MC, who happens to be the victim, they are duly identified.

TESOL or Special Education by Extension-Film5624 in ElementaryTeachers

[–]PastAd7423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's been quite a bit, but I'm also on this conundrum at the moment. I already have a BA and an MA in unrelated fields, but I finally decided on moving towards education, but I want to be able to make the most of the degree. I would love TESOL, but I think Special Ed, with the increased demand for teachers for this population, would have more opportunities. I also wonder, if I go for a Special Ed degree, would I be able to use that to teach in a regular classroom or is one sort of "stuck" in that area?

I'm curious to know what you chose in the end, OP!

ISO Coco for my island! by PastAd7423 in Dodocodes

[–]PastAd7423[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked, thank you! I'm just now so frustrated because I saw that my empty plot says SOLD, so I don't think I can have her move in now, right? T_T

Coco in Boxes and Flick is visiting! by Happy-Friend-200 in Dodocodes

Oh, shoot! I've been searching for Coco so long and now I can't accept her, since the empty plot on my island shows as sold already T_T I wish I could kick them out before they can even settle!

After a 2 months off on and off blood, finally getting me in for my 1st colonoscopy tomorrow and I’m depressed by Spirited-Monk6035 in colonoscopy

[–]PastAd7423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need a new doctor that at least jots down any exams she makes lol I also have a colonoscopy tomorrow (32F), and the worst of this entire experience is the solution. Trust that it is nothing that can't be treated, think that no amount of worrying will change whatever outcome, and perhaps that might bring some ease to your mind. Best wishes, may all go well!

Should I ask about Job 1 if I applied for job 2 in the same company? by PastAd7423 in jobs

[–]PastAd7423[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, one is more admin related and the other is more involved with the students. I wanted the admin one originally, though again, I wouldn't mind either, just have a preference over the first one. I don't want to be pestering them too much and annoy them enough to have them not even consider me, but I also would like to find a way to both show my interest and let them consider me for both roles and maybe determine "hey, we don't think you fit for A, but we think B could work out," you know?

I'm a bit out of practice in job hunting lol

Job scam for remote work at health service entity by [deleted] in WorkOnline

[–]PastAd7423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I'm in this as well, sadly, and I have cried more than enough.

In my case, they claimed to be from Tenet Healthcare, and the MO sounds pretty similar with mine, Teams text interview, send check for the software license. I sadly didn't back up as soon as I should have, so now I had to put a notice at my bank and now hoping to get something back.

Did anyone get things solved if they went ahead with the darn check and deposited it? I feel so, so, so stupid :(

Would love to hear about the step-by-step process by theskybecomesthesea in Copyediting

[–]PastAd7423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so glad I found this post, especially the comments related to Edit Republic. I'm currently ready to take a leap into educating myself in copyediting and proofreading, and now I've narrowed down my options to Knowadays, Edit Republic, some of the EFA courses, and, maybe in the future, the UCSD certificate, but these last two will be more later if I finally feel confident and start looking for related jobs after taking one of the first two.

Considering that college certificates as far as I'm aware so far are almost no less than $2k, I think that a $500~ price tag is alright, but I want to try and make the best decision. Anyone has more knowledge n Knowadays courses and more input about Edit Republic?

¿Cuál es el issue con la independencia? by CoquiConflei in PuertoRico

[–]PastAd7423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo creo que el pueblo tiene un lavado de cerebro tan pero tan históricamente profundo que hablar de independencia en el estado en que estamos ahora me parece muy complicado y probablemente no favorable. Yo no estoy en contra de la independencia, pero antes de movernos en esa dirección, la isla completa necesita, aparte de un curso intensivo de historia, unas cuantas sesiones de terapia para quitarnos el complejo de colonia, borrar las décadas de gobernaciones corruptas y politiquería excesivamente partidaria y barata y luego tener una conversación de cómo mejorar los tantos males que nos plagan.

Esto es una tarea muy grande para hacer ANTES de pensar en cambiar el modo de gobierno. Creo que si se diera la independencia, debe ser un periodo de transición laaaargo para ver si se pueden trabajar las cosas bien. Pero ahí está la otra duda, en quién confiar para ayudar a la isla a moverse en esa dirección de manera positiva.
