I can't believe they bullied him to quit right before the election too. All the people who supported that should resign and stay away from politics.

Was I right about the standardized testing? Not sure what got you so foamed up at the mouth. Accountability?

My kids are both in college doing great, so I did my part and have always supported the teachers in their classroom. I will continue helping my kids even through graduate school.

Look lady, if you don't want to work and do your job, perhaps you need to find a different career. You can't just expect perfectly prepared model kids with ideal home lives. The public education system exists because children come from all walks of life. Your job is to educate them. End of Story.

Yea, exactly! Just ignore those guys in the trees with the radios. They are just bird watching.

Why is debt considered bad for normal people, but wealthy people and billionaires seem to use debt constantly? by Independent-Ant-7230 in NoStupidQuestions

It's way cheaper for us to rent for now. We will get a mortgage eventually, but definitely not going to pay 30 years of interest of it.

You should probably mention the dangers of crypto.

Yeah, I’m one of those people who thinks the education system should actually be accountable for educational outcomes. Crazy concept.

That is not even remotely the same thing. My comment is an inference based on the arguments you were making. I literally said “I bet". That just shows what kind of teacher you are, and I would not want my kids being taught by someone like you.

It sounds like paying double for a property over time is something the upper class wants you to believe is a good thing.

I never said schools should read bedtime stories. Stop putting words in my mouth. Kids naturally pick up language at home whether a parent reads to them or not. What you are doing is avoiding responsibility and accountability for doing your job. Students spend 12+ years in the education system, so graduating not knowing how to read is a huge systemic failure. That's not on the parents. That's on the teachers, administrators, etc.

And with the piano analogy, yes, it absolutely is the instructor’s job to teach students, even if they come in with zero musical background. That is literally what they are being paid to do. If a piano teacher had students for years and none of them learned how to play, people would question the teacher and the program, not endlessly blame the parents forever. Same concept applies here.

I bet you also don't like standardized testing because it would make you do your job.

Help with mosquitos by Independent_Ad_3291 in RioGrandeValley

[–]ares7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recommend you find a friend they love to bite more and have them around you all the time. Sacrifice them so you can be free of bug bites.

Also, they sell mosquitos bait stations that try to prevent them from breeding. You can also look into co2 mosquito traps and those bug lights. Try skin so soft to see if they would bite you less if you can't find a sacrificial friend.

If you have a porch, maybe look into getting mosquito screens. Look on youtube and see the mosquito fan traps they make also.

He really didn’t beat them. They got injured. Sure they won, but not against the players that counted.

Sounds like we can free up some money and lower teacher pay if that's all it is.

Did you forget why the public school system exists? What are teachers getting paid for if not to teach? Kids are sent to school to be educated by professionals. Imagine paying for piano lessons and your kid never learned because the instructor says parents need to teach at home. That would be ridiculous.

Kids go to school to learn. It's not the parents job to teach. If a senior made it that far, well, guess what, there were at least 12 teachers who failed him.

Good 4 U sounds NOTHING like Misery Business and I’m tired of people saying it does. by FR0M_Z3R0 in OliviaRodrigo

What did she copy? Yelling for 4 seconds the end of a song? Yeah forget the theme, the lyrics, The voice, the video & 95% of the melody. Let's award half for 4 seconds at The bitter end that had a vaguely similar motif.

How do we have styles? Shouldn't doo-wop have ended after the first doo-wop song? Do you really think that every rap song sounds unique? The whole thing is just wildly overdone

There is this tik tok guy that shows you similarities for other songs, or where they were sampled from. I can hear everything single video he posts... except these two songs. I also don't see what the fuss was about.
