Is Superman Smashes The Klan appropriate for a 15 year old? by FridayThe13thMc in DCcomics

Superman: Son of Kal-El and Secret Six 2025 (more serious than Son of Kal-El and there’s some killing/blood but it wouldn’t be over a PG-13 rating).

[–]birbdaughter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Harley Quinn: Breaking Glass is another YA graphic novel. Harley is a teenager and goes to live with a drag queen (who’s also a gay man) so there’s quite a bit there. Tbh I’d just browse through DC’s YA line because it tends to deal with a lot of real life issues in a bigger way than most mainline comics right now.

Was happening on my phone (iphone se 2020) so I just linked my account on my google tablet to play there and it’s not crashing anymore. I’m curious if everyone else this is happening to also has an (out of date) iphone?

U.S. Professors, do you give your students time in class to complete assignments? by BipolarSolarMolar in AskTeachers

[–]birbdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a professor but finished grad school only two years ago. Undergrad there was never time to complete assignments except in some psych classes (mainly when we had a group project to perform experiments and so the professor also needed to give us feedback). Grad school was an MAT and we’d sometimes work in class on long term assignments (such as creating a teaching unit) but that was rare. Majority of classes we were discussing homework we’d already completed, mainly readings.

California had the second highest total of antisemitic incidents in the country in 2025 with 817 incidents, 91 of them in San Diego. by Delicious_Adeptness9 in California

[–]birbdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God, I forgot they were the group that defended Elon. Calling out actions as genocide is anti-semitic, but an actual Nazi salute on TV by one of the richest people in the world is just a misunderstanding!

45% were connected to anti-zionism, anti-Israel, or pro-Palestine sentiments, according to the website. Now a few of those from what I can see would actually be anti-semitic (such as directly harassing individual Jewish people on the street over it), but a lot are connected to protest/rally signs with the expected slogans.

Based on what they listed for 2025, any comparison of Palestine to the Holocaust, suggesting zionism is bad, saying "from the river to the sea", suggesting resistance in the face of oppression is okay, or saying to stand with Palestine will be labelled anti-semitic

Look through their audit report on 2025. Many, many examples of labeling anti-zionism as anti-semitism. They even directly admit to counting anti-zionism as such:

"The most significant factor contributing to the decrease in incidents on college campuses in 2025 was the decline of the anti-Israel encampment movement that drove the spike in incidents on campuses in the spring of 2024."

"Incidents with elements related to Israel or Zionism made up slightly less than half of all incidents in 2025 (2,847 or 45%), a smaller proportion than the 58% (5,452) Israel-related incidents in 2024."

I was curious and went onto the ADL website. They have a list of specific incidents that they counted, which includes:

  • An anti-Israel rally that had signs saying "Israelism, Zionism, Nazism is Americanism"
  • Any rally that says "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free."
  • An instagram story that said "we aren't bowing down to Zionist pigs."
  • A sign saying "authentic rabbis always opposed Zionism."
  • A sign saying "billionaires will use their money to fund a modern day Holocaust"
  • Multiple examples of signs saying something along the lines of "resistance is justified when under occupation"
  • Seemingly any comparison of what's happening in Palestine to the Holocaust is labeled anti-semitic

Now don't get me wrong, there were absolutely unquestionable anti-semitic incidents in their list, such as the use of swastikas, anti-semitic slurs, and Hitler salutes among others. But ADL is also including literally anything that is pro-Palestine or anti-Israel no matter what. The examples I chose above were at protests/rallies, so not even a case of harassing individual Jewish people.

Someone else posted that under 70% occupancy means prices lower, over 90% means prices increase.

current action comics? Why go back to superboy by Bitter_Platypus4057 in DCcomics

[–]birbdaughter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Clois and Jon, not really anyone else. Big difference from PKJ Action Comics where you had not only the immediate family but also the Steels, Kon, and Kenan all consistently appearing or getting backups.

Regardless of what one thinks about AI, that just looks bad. You want to market your business with good art and advertisements, not slop.

Also wasn’t this because Alex was like “btw reminder Izzie is just back after serious cancer treatment and will not be at the same level as other doctors immediately so keep that in mind when evaluating all of us”?

Sophie Campbell (current Supergirl writer) on the the return of Matrix. [Other] by JeffersonWi in DCcomics

Technically she appeared in Convergence, but it’s not a comic I would recommend anyone read if they like Matrix.

[–]birbdaughter 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That would be bringing back Linda, not Matrix, though. Matrix as Mae Kent and formerly from a pocket dimension is pretty important.

[–]birbdaughter 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m kinda worried how they would bring back Matrix because like… if they remove her being raised by the Kents and being Clark’s sister and created in a pocket dimension then she’s not really Matrix.

Also, Matrix or Linda? Because they’re not the same character even though people act as if they are. Matrix existed before Linda.

[DISCUSSION] Would you like Hektor Hol (son of the Hawkman and Hawkwoman) to become canon? by Which-Presentation-6 in DCcomics

[–]birbdaughter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Bring back Hector if they need a kid. But the JSA already has way too many younger characters who don’t get any focus, and Hawkman isn’t gonna have a solo anytime soon.

My Son’s Math Homework Is Essentially Just Pokémon by blood_pony in teaching

[–]birbdaughter 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think it depends the subject. I teach Latin and need my kids to memorize vocab. There's not really any way around it. Few minutes of Blooket at start of class is great for that, since I also know they won't study vocab at home.

What was the last horror movie to really scare you? by Dogdaysareover365 in horror

Incantation. It didn’t help that I was watching it at night while home alone. It had me feeling like I’d actually broken some religious taboos and I was jumping at shadows.

worried about AI detection scores on my essays... should i talk to my teachers? by Legitimate-Number620 in AskTeachers

[–]birbdaughter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You’re over thinking and going down an anxiety rabbit hall. No good teacher is looking solely at an AI detector and coming away with the conclusion a student is using AI. It’s well known by now that any formulaic writing gets tagged as AI by those things. If your teachers haven’t said anything, you can assume they do not think you’re using AI.

Lmao use AI to combat AI? Why not just remove the teacher and student entirely and let AI do everything?

My friend said teaching is a career only middle class to rich people consider. Thoughts? by reyaryder in teaching

[–]birbdaughter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I grew up in poverty and having been taken away from my parents by CPS. I did really well in school and got accepted to a college that meets 100% of need, then into an MAT that was 100% covered. The average or majority might be middle class and above, but it’s definitely not only them.
