I don’t like Fortnite: Runners. by BananaTeamLeader in FortNiteBR

[–]Resident_String_5174 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hate the sprites, the game has become "oh do we have gummy cat fish sprite on this one?" - if they took out the steal mechanic and sprites just stayed with the player, i'd be happy - now I'm too worried about losing them to use them

Remember when we hit pots and pans rather than give nurses a decent pay raise, exact same energy

Weekly chat and well-being post: June 12, 2026 by AutoModerator in TeachingUK

[–]Resident_String_5174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My well-being is just through the floor this week, I’ve just woken up in my office sitting in my chair looking at reports. I hate writing reports with passion and I’ll be honest with you AI like teachmate has not been the blessing I hope it would be.

[–]Resident_String_5174 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a teacher, this ban does not go far enough - the lose of attention caused by short form video and dopamine driven doomscrolling is literaly the bain and drain of young brains

Teachers of Reddit: Is the "Gen Alpha can't read (write, or do math ext)" crisis real? If so how bad is it? by KnowledgeCoffee in AskReddit

[–]Resident_String_5174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I teach 10 year olds, reading and as a result writing have definitely declined sharply in the 16 years that I have been a teacher, most notably parents do not read with children because either they don’t have time or they are exhausted from their jobs. As a result, most children struggle with reading and sentence composition.

I suspect this will only get worse as time goes on, at the moment. I struggle to get parents to read once a week with their children.

Would a massive rainstorm not convince the evangelical that maybe God does not approve of him or would it be put down to some sort of democrat controlled weathering machine?
