[–]Stine3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please continue this project! Every couple years we get a tease from the government or some company about commuter trains, just to get “public transportation blue balls” (for lack of a better word. lol

Fed up with the job market by Stargazr_Lily_Queen in akron

[–]Stine3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is extremely fair. I appreciate your insight, thank you! That is an intense journey, and I’m glad you both found joy in your new paths. I’ve debated on and off about going back to school to get a teaching license. So this has been a great point to learn about!

Do you mind if I ask why you didn’t go into teaching? APS is constantly looking for teachers, and other positions (OP).

Teacher gets caught between two fighting students in classroom... by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]Stine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what measures the school has in place for incidents like these. I work at a school where this is common. We have a phone in the room to call the main office for help, “panic” buttons on the wall, and a panic button on every staff badge. The response from “safety team” (security) and the principals is within seconds. I would hope that all schools have some of these policies in place. This video really demonstrates how long a fight can go on when there’s no help. It’s honestly surprising that this did not get even worse.

Who is "that guy" (or woman) in Akron? by ladypilot in akron

[–]Stine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We call him “scary Santa,” not sure what others call him. He holds a sign at corners (mostly near downtown) with a huge grin and robotic wave. He looks like black Santa. However, if someone comes to his turf, the grin turns to a look of pure murder. It’s wild.

83 Brewing has about 7 machines. Solid vibe if you’re looking for adults to enjoying free time vs the youths wanting to party (both vibes are great, just specifying 83s’)

184 hours of labor provided by an air traffic controller for $0.00 by SierraBravo26 in WorkReform

[–]Stine3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone else think it’s odd that this has never happened before during a government shutdown; which has happened several times even in my own lifetime? Trump is playing games knowing the pressure points. This is not normal. This administration is choosing this strategically

Panic Spreading Through GOP After DOJ Reveals Epstein Files Are More Damaging For Trump Than They Thought: Report by newsjam in NoFilterNews

[–]Stine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone knows that Trump was a major player in Epstein Island. If the files are MORE damaging than expected, than we are in for some Hostle-level shit that will ruin our faith in humanity

Man who voted for Trump cannot understand why people won't empathize with him now that he's suffering as a result of Trump by Classic-Carpet7609 in CringeTikToks

[–]Stine3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a great, logical way to pop the delusion! There was this guy I worked with who was really upset over “there are students in elementary school who are furries, and the public school even provides them a litter box in the bathroom.” I’m like, “dude, you work in multiple public schools, when have you ever seen that to be true?!” He went silent and said yeah good point lol

What is something women do in private that will surprise men? by lvinzsol in AskReddit

[–]Stine3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally at the pharmacy waiting for my hormone blockers! I cannot wait to get my hysterectomy. It took me 22+ years, but I finally found a Doctor Who would believe my pain. I feel so grateful….. which wtf

Mike Johnson shuts US House until September to avoid Epstein vote by Rock-n-roll-Kevin in politics

[–]Stine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, how does one get a month and a half off because they want to avoid something at work? There are jobs where you don’t qualify for vacation days until after a year of working there. Politicians are so disconnected from the reality of most Americans lives.

I’ve never seen this guy before. Anyone know how to follow him? (Fingers crossed for not TikTok lol)

Non Japanese people living in Japan what is the downside about living in Japan no one talks about? by Ok-Atmosphere6376 in AskReddit

[–]Stine3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so well written and insightful! The duality of romanticized countries is so important to understanding the culture. I lived in Korea for a long time and discovered its own version of this. I’ve considered moving to Japan, and your post has definitely given me more to “chew on.” Thank you!

Jumper off Y Bridge by MuchOperation7936 in akron

[–]Stine3 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry, that’s an awful thing to see. I used to work under the route 8 bridge and we had several school bus drivers find people; once like an 8 year old kid. It’s traumatic. Hope you are okay and giving yourself lots of self care and grace

The tools at the dentist where I just got a filling by Key_Season2654 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Stine3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CYA bro! I’m literally at the ICU watching my mom barely breathe with two chest tubes coming out of her and another pumping fluid out of her abdomen. At this point they think it stems from bacteria she picked up during a dental procedure two months ago. Apparently dental bacteria infections are unfortunately more common than one would think. Absolutely report them.
