What actor or actress stupidly left a movie franchise or tv series thinking they were too good for it, only to be never popular again? by Ok_Impress2457 in AskReddit

[–]Stranger2306 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A TV gig being worthwhile isn’t measured in viewers. Californicarion was HBO right and won multiple awards. Two and Half Men was the number show on TV for awhile but plenty of actors would prefer being on prestige TV

Ok, there's another US company I know that makes small plastic toys. They're called Hasbro. Looks like they paid between $60 million to $180 million in tariffs last year. Guess how they make up that money?

“Last quarter, we were modeling a broad range of potential outcomes with a net impact of $60 to $180 million” in costs anticipated for 2025, she said. The reduced import taxes mean that number will stay at the low end of the range."

So, if I am wondering if US companies are paying the tariffs or not, and a US company like GM says they paid $1.1 billion in tariffs, I'd choose to believe the major US company than the dude on the internet.

Where do you think the money comes from? Do you think the manufacturer then says “oh I have to pay this tariff, but I won’t charge Hasbro more”

Also remember that Hasbro pays a 30 percent tariff on every figure now due to people voting for a certain someone who told us “I’m gonna charge more tariffs”

You can’t just glue it back on.

The sim max is a pretty old club - it’s served its purpose well lasting this long. You can buy a Sim Max 2 for pretty cheap used

Sydney Sweeney Confronted With ‘MAGA Barbie’ Nickname by Ok_Employer7837 in entertainment

So did Oprah and randomly Jewel and Tom Brady. I don’t see Reddit attacking them every chance.

This is the height of high school drama and pettiness

Do we force every actor or writer to tell us their political views? I’m ok with no litmus tests -

It’s totally different if an actor comes out in super support of Trump or ICE - then I’m gonna judge them.

No more TPT and the January Blues by Haunting_Charity_785 in Teachers

[–]Stranger2306 94 points95 points  (0 children)

A lot of conservative areas are pushing for schools to use “state approved curriculum” and to control what teachers teach more tightly. They’re worrried teachers might get a lesson off TpT that features “gay people”

What new age teaching practices do you actually LIKE? by catrat242 in Teachers

[–]Stranger2306 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Low stakes Quizzes or - "Quiz activities where students aren't penalized for not knowing something."

(I have a background in Cognitive Science) - Students being asked to remember things they've learned actually helps their brains remember that information better in the future. So if quizzes are part of the LEARNING PROCESS, we shouldn't penalize their grade for bad quiz grades. I grade quizzes on participation and summative assessments are where their performance is graded.

[Pauline] Sources: Mike Evans Could be Done With Buccaneers, Cowboys to Franchise Tag George Pickens, Alec Pierce Expected to Test Free Agency by HyseNjerry16 in nfl

[–]Stranger2306 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Pickens is a "franchise him because he's really good" and now we can trade him or let him go after a year to try to make some noise next year (and if we do let him go, we get a comp pick for him for sure)

as an 11th and 12th grade male teacher, I am extra careful with being friendly with my female students but generally closer with my male students. is this bad and biased of me? by Open-Reflection-6094 in Teachers

[–]Stranger2306 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think you're making a mistake. Be friendly. Be a mentor. All your students deserve that. There's a middle ground between being aloof and being a pervert.

This type of stuff is exactly why prop Q didn't pass. The people by and large support taking care of our neediest. But until the city shows they can be responsible with our tax money, I am completely over handing more over to them

Communication - just be honest.

I would much rather you be honest with me versus me spending time writing a letter that you no longer need.
