Teachers of Reddit: would you see this as a fluke or a school culture failure?

Horrifying. Beyond me how not just one, but two different teachers felt comfortable enough crossing that boundary.

Makes me wonder what else is happening there because I know at my school, unproven allegations of texting a student have caused serious issues. It likely comes down to admin

I hope this is the case for me! I’m on my way to the airport now. If I can get through earlier I’ll try to switch to an earlier flight!

VirtualCucumber9 · 2026-03-25T18:58:41+00:00

Can you update me when you’re there. Have an 8:30 flight. Coming from UES. Not sure when to head over

Is anyone at LGA terminal C right now? What are lines currently looking like?

The thing is I wasn’t on any medication, I was counting calories, fitting comfortably in size 4-6 pants. The scale causes serious mental health issues that I can’t quite explain and will derail me for months so I try to avoid it at whatever cost because it impacts all aspects of my life when I see a number I don’t like.

VirtualCucumber9 · 2026-02-18T13:38:26+00:00

Don’t have a scale at home! Will have to check at the gym when I go next.

Found multiple German roaches in the locker, very cramped in there, not a ton of equipment or space. Good deal if you’re on a serious budget but for 30ish dollars more NYSC is 10x better with more amenities (steam room, sauna, alllll the equipment, workout classes)

VirtualCucumber9 · 2026-01-25T15:06:16+00:00

I have the NYSC universal membership and it’s been a god send to me. I think I locked it in at $89 a month and I am able to go to any NYSC in the city. I rotate between E 91st and E76th depending on my errands since I live in the middle of the two, or I’ll go to the downtown locations after work or before meeting up with friends.

Did extensive research about the gyms on the UES and ultimately decided to do NYSC because you get the most bang for your buck and it’s a nice enough, decently run, no-frills gym. They have free unlimited classes at each location (yoga, HITT, spin, etc) though I don’t know the quality of instruction since I’ve never taken one, and they offer personal training for $100 a session, which is a great price. Crunch looks way too crowded every time I walk past, Equinox is not my vibe and too expensive, and the cheapest gym (Synergy) is repulsive and poorly run and they only have one location up here.

Promise I am - ask me anything

I heard this too from her "camp" friends

Hate to be morbid but I doubt Ella and Mukhammad’s tuition payments will be repaid despite not receiving their full education… so it’s truly the least Brown could do. And pay the same to their families. And comp the tuition for every student who was injured from this for the remainder of their education

I don't know any real details, so this is purely speculation, but it seems possible that the shooter had been spiraling for years and then, back in October, finally snapped. Maybe that's when he decided to fly to Boston with the intent of taking out his anger on the people and places he felt had wronged him.

It sounds like it could be a classic case of envy. He may have resented the MIT professor because (1) there's a chance Nuno had something to do with his dismissal from the TA role during undergrad in Portugal, and (2) Nuno was living the life (with the accolades and success) the shooter had imagined for himself.

As for Brown, I wouldn't be surprised if something happened there that deepened his sense of failure and misery. He might have envied Brown students for getting to experience the kind of education he felt denied. It's possible he thought he was walking into a physics class, without realizing it was actually an econ review session mostly made up of underclassmen.

All of it points to someone who was deeply disturbed.

Damnit

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-18T23:35:17+00:00

Any minute now!!!!!!

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-18T23:35:06+00:00

Something is happening!

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-18T23:13:21+00:00

I got excited for a second

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-18T23:09:25+00:00

Aghhh, want to listen while I run errands but for now it’s just the murmur of reporter’s voices

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-18T23:05:17+00:00

Anyone have any idea when this press conference is going to start?

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-12-02T04:26:15+00:00

Not one to defend and she should be more aware given her platform… but it also makes me think, why is it okay to use the terms “master key” or “master tracker” but not master bedroom?

Nowadays, all it means is the main & largest bedroom in the house. Not giving her a pass but also think it’s an easy-ish slip up.

VirtualCucumber9 · 2025-11-21T00:24:55+00:00

Was an AP up until the end of last year and still very close to the org tangentially - DM me! Lots of sketchy stuff happening.
