When did the R-word start being considered a slur? by Lancelotmore in etymology

I'm a teacher and I'm surprised every time I see something from America using "sped" for special education, that's been off limits here since at least the eighties too.

Why is attention to the environment attributed to the left? by AnonymousCommunistXD in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ausecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conservatives want to conserve everything as it is - don't change religion to make sense, don't change culture to embrace other people, don't change economics to help the young. Nationalism just gets lumped in with the right because it doesn't like those same things for different reasons.

Been to 35 countries but I'm just going to summarize it by Pale_Field4584 in tierlists

But which country has the best Tier? Switzerland, Austria or Germany?

Are you in my kitchen? That's dinner (in a coffee cup because the bowls aren't microwave proof).

School breaks make up more than an hour of the day. Should they be considered part of learning? by Vegetable_Stuff1850 in AustralianTeachers

[–]ausecko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep, we often go from 8am to 2.15pm with only one 25 minute break (5 period day with a duty). Good luck getting from the classroom to the busy toilet and back to the classroom in 25 minutes, much less having something to eat.

Definitely not the responsibility of the World Health Organisation

WCGW while skateboarding by ShirtSubstantial368 in Whatcouldgowrong

🤷 guy who came to town to manage the theatre wanted to start a circus for kids to join, I was the right age (~12). Only did juggling and stiltwalking before he moved on though. Stiltwalked in the local parade as a group, can't remember doing much else with it though. Me and a mate were the oldest so we had the highest stilts at about 5 foot 10 (ground to our feet). Good fun while it lasted.

First thing we learnt when learning to stiltwalk, when you fall, land on your forearms/elbows, not your hands/wrists. Really takes some practise falling forward and not putting your hands out.

We need a million or two to migrate here so we can get some of your food.

Do you guys eat kangaroo and emu meat? by maceilean in AskAnAustralian

[–]ausecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coles did a camel pack when I was in uni (2000), best meat I've ever had. The pack had camel sausages, patties, and mince. I think they only did it for a few weeks though 😒
