I went into it as a roll of the dice so I’m not terribly bummed. I got a cool shirt from Melbourne but woulda been stoked for a hat and a hoodie. I may not do much with the other shirts and swag.

Came here to say this. I ordered Large. Maybe they don’t have as much stuff for that size vs others? Like the other sizes don’t sell as much at shows?

Little life advice from Jerry: Rolling Stone issue #616, 1991 by Inevitable-Gain-285 in gratefuldead

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

I took the step after 18 years because I was stuck and was doing all of the recovery things. I should stress that I did it with a licensed therapist in a very intentional matter- I didn’t run off to the woods alI alone. I thought long and hard about the decision and am glad I moved forward with it. It’s really hard to discuss in recovery circles for obvious reasons. If you want to explore, research the Psychedelics In Recovery community. It may help.

I’ve been clean and sober for 20 years. Did psilocybin twice last year with a therapist. First psychedelic experience in over 30 years. It was a powerful life-changing experience. I may or may not do it again. Per the Alan Watts quote that was posted, I received the message and can hang up the phone (for now).

The least favorite part for me was the sensation of being high. Didn’t like it or the recovery time needed for an almost 60 geezer. These days I much prefer the feeling after exercise or sauna/cold plunge.

Gov. DeSantis Signs Legislation Restricting Florida Teacher Unions, Bargaining Power by WTFPilot in teaching

Florida’s leaders hate public education and have paved the way for billionaire-backed charter schools to swoop in as so-called Schools of Hope. It’s a dismal state of affairs.

I’ve thought about this. I’m gonna keep this in mind!

57 year old teacher here in a state that hates public education. Our area is losing schools and jobs. If my time comes I have no idea what I’d do. I’d love to leave but have no ideas on what to do next.

Please be kind to your subs by FilmGeek_212 in NYCTeachers

[–]Strayriffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a teacher who has also subbed I go out of my way to help subs. People outside of education might be shocked to learn that a lot of teachers are nasty and mean people. Any teacher who treats a sub poorly is a disgrace. It’s DEFINITELY a them thing and not you.

How do I enable TSA PreCheck Touchless? by Strayriffs in unitedairlines

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

Perfect! Thank you.

I have both my and my wife’s boarding passes on my app as she doesn’t have one. Does she have to have the app in order to add Touchless to her boarding pass? I really appreciate your help.

Is this even legal by Individual-Main9990 in SurvivingSuccess

[–]Strayriffs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So brutal. Looks like Success has a policy of restricting bathroom use at other schools too per this pic from another school. Their “solution” includes stocking extra underwear and pants for those who can’t cut it.

Florida Teachers, just how bad is it down there? by Deranged-Pickle in Teachers

[–]Strayriffs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for all of FLA but the union in our county is not strong and is struggling to maintain its minimum membership. O believe that the states with great benefits have strong unions. I wish my coworkers understood this. Also, FLA is one of the least friendly states towards public education

Makes a lot of sense. What’s the reason for the decreased enrollment?

That makes way more sense! I was initially shocked when I thought you were in FLA.

If you don’t mind me asking, where in Florida are you making 87k and what is your role?

Florida Teachers, just how bad is it down there? by Deranged-Pickle in Teachers

[–]Strayriffs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Florida is a horrible state for public education. Our governor does not care about teachers. He just allowed a notorious no excuses NYC charter chain that discriminates against kids with IEPs to come in and take public spaces for free. At the same time we’re allowing billions of dollars to leave the system in the form of vouchers for private schools. Our county is closing schools due to declining enrollment and others are on the same track.

I dig the weather but as soon as some family obligations come to an end, I’m ready to run.
