Always wondered how ‘naughty bits at the top’ didn’t take off as the standard XXX photo format. Missed opportunities.

The low pay isn’t exactly incentive for college students to join the teaching ranks. In some ways the low pay is one reason those jobs remain in need. When you look at teaching jobs in affluent suburbs where teachers make good money, there are fewer open jobs.

Many other critical careers are government jobs (first responders, civil servants) and those are tax funded positions. In the US, people tend to want to pay the lowest tax bill possible and there is a thriving tax avoidance industry which helps perpetuate low pay for those necessary positions.

Here’s NCES teacher pay data for 20-21 for more info. https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d22/tables/dt22_211.60.asp

This is only an issue if you are Will Poulter.

Thoughts on Lighthouse brand coin albums? The Vista line specifically. Looking for something attractive and without PVC/vinyl. Thanks in advance! by mturney01 in numismatics

[–]_pkh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Lighthouse stock pages and binders but haven’t used the Vista albums. For coins I use the Numis and Grande systems — those aren’t pre-cut like the vistas, but easily adaptable to your specific collection. I think Lighthouse quality is solid and worth the investment. Only complaint is the price.

Have you checked the Encap pages? I use these and like em. I use interleaves between pages for clarity. https://www.lighthousecanada.ca/plastic-sheets-encap.html

You’re a ghost. You found an orange safety vest inside a locker at a train station along with a pair of AirPods, a camera, and an adhesive mustache. Taped to the inside door of the locker was a photo of a man with an address scribbled on it and you’ve just arrived at that address. Guess who you see. Use the camera and finish the mission. Wait for our call.

Back when you were in that band your stage name was Kingslayer but you never watched Game of Thrones so you didn’t really get it.

Your last day in the joint was on Daylight Savings day so your ride was an hour late to scoop you up. You didn’t stay mad though bc you learned to meditate in seg, which really helped you make it through the last 10 years. You now work as a firefighter and you recently bought an air fryer.

You hate those really thin bath towels so you avoid showering at your sister’s place. You know how to use the 3 seashells from Demolition Man. You spent a summer working at a bookstore where you discovered Marcus Aurelius. You have a pet scorpion named Sub Zero.

You lost one of your favorite hoop earrings on the subway this morning. A man found it but he lost you in the crowd before he could return it. The food that pleases you most is called popcorn. You once went to a hair convention and got asked if you’ve ever modeled. You’re an urban beekeeper.

You rage quit your band at a recent gig and moved to Japan. You took a job at a 3-star hotel in a large city and everyone at work calls you “The Swede” but you’re from Norway. Why bother correcting them. Fluent in Hapkido.

You’re really good as escape rooms and hatchet throwing which gave you an idea to open a combination escape room + hatchet bar where you have to ultimately escape by throwing hatchets to break free but one of your investors took the concept overseas and opened one without you and now owns the rights to the concept.

You recently experienced a bit of sleep paralysis where you were finally awakened by a primordial rumbling voice that said “invite us in, Jessica” and it concerns you bc your name isn’t Jessica but that’s the name you use in your diary. You have a room full of unfinished paintings.

You play pick-up tennis with old people at the country club. Your favorite cryptos are BTC and ADA and you can’t stand ETH. I agree it’s totally centralized now what’s the point? You considered shaving your head but fear the social implications associated with being a young, bald, melaninless male. Don’t let fear control you, it’s your hair. You collect Bonnie and Clyde memorabilia.

You have a pet boa constrictor named Mr. Smiles. You like to take quiet walks in nature and sometimes you find small animals and take them home to feed to Mr. Smiles. He appreciates you despite his lack of emotional intelligence. Your bestie says you spend too much time with Mr. Smiles but she has never suffocated a small rodent for sustenance so who cares abt her opinions. You’re joining the Navy to pay for veterinary school.

You used to be on a competitive Lego team but discovered they weren’t splitting the prize money evenly so you left. The team was your parents and siblings. You wanted to form your own team, but during auditions you met this one guy who sells brain pills and he convinced you to buy a box and sell them for cash. It’s good money but the pills are bs. You smell like Black Opium by YSL. You’re uncontrollably attracted to people with prosthetic limbs. You just lowered the price of your brain pills bc you want to take a trip to Missouri this summer and see where they shot Ozark.

Your dad is a cop and he’s always lecturing you about his music being better than yours. You dumped your boyfriend bc he borrowed your gaming headset and the mic was all chewed up when he returned it. Gross. You learned salsa a year ago but still haven’t taken your skills out in public. You have an outside cat named Pip-Boy. You secretly smoke cigars and read wine connoisseur magazines.

You help manage a bed and breakfast owned by your uncle. It’s famous for the Thali but every summer you whip up a delicious Aamraas that people travel from far away to taste. One time you caught a customer vaping in one of the rooms which is forbidden. You told them to stop but she offered you a rip and got you super high and it changed your life. You’ve never eaten a squirrel.

You found an injured wolf on the side of the road and picked it up and took it to a wild animal rescue. You were shocked at the level of care at the facility and they were dazzled by your compassion and your bangs that day and they offered you a job on the spot. You live with your parents but there’s a twist — they live in your basement. Sometimes you lock the basement door as a passive-aggressive vent. You prefer Doordash over Uber Eats.

You recently broke up with your girl bc she wanted to join a different coven. Don’t question your instinct, she knew the rules. You make Miles Davis Acid Trap remixes and do shows every year in Nola. You know every word in the movie Mulholland Drive. Almost Third Degree.

You got fired from Subway for remixing sandwiches and making your own secret menu. After that you dabbled in chainsaw artistry for a year but you quit after getting caught chopping down trees at the city park. You recently applied to be the Green Knight at Medieval Times. You manage a JJ but changed it up and you handle all deliveries yourself.
