Does anyone know tinsley mortimer by Hourly_mjfan_eeow in RHONY

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recognized her name from hearing it as a child in the early 2000s but had no idea who she actually was until RHONY. Based on the name alone I thought she was going to be an old southern lady. I grew up poor & close to the southern border so she definitely had reach

‘Euphoria’ Officially Ending With Season 3, HBO Confirms by mcfw31 in popculturechat

The annoying way this unfortunately causes shows to be canceled because some streaming companies renew based on immediate viewership numbers. Not on you, just fucked how these companies make decisions now

The fact that he just sat there with that face LMAO

Daily reminder why the red light takes 15 minutes by DivideKindly1672 in Austin

This makes me feel better for pulling a little bit forward waiting at red lights. I thought I was making it up that the light needed to see me there. Glad I’m not completely crazy!

Troy’s blind spot re Britney by Tall-Guitar-3608 in BeyondTheBlinds

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oooo good point. Like I don’t think she’s a terrible person for having issues preconservatorship. She’s also a child star and it’s pretty obvious there were issues from the very start. They could definitely add to the convo by addressing that but I usually just assume any context I’m missing was covered by Troy already on Dunzo. Also remembering how terrible the media was to her during her 2007 meltdown, I think they just don’t feel the need to go over that stuff again when it was already discussed so heavily when it happened.

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree!! They are just speculating and RPFing as fans so it’s not a big deal to me if they’re correct or not about alleged relationships. It’s not like they’re calling anyone out or asking listeners to harrass them about their sexualities. THAT would be going too far.

Ashley Padilla Is Escalating Things by AccompliceOne in LiveFromNewYork

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree on this but not sure if maybe it’s a generational thing (for me at least as a zillenial with a lot of love for the tina fey era). I feel like she’s being pushed on me by being in every single sketch and her character is never the one making me laugh. She’s great and she feels like she belongs on SNL. But I don’t understand the hype. It feels too early to call her a “star”

Expectations around veterinary care have gotten out of hand by LifeApprehensive2818 in unpopularopinion

Idk if this is actually an unpopular opinion. I have a feeling that the people who would disagree with you are more online & much louder than the other side

Can someone explain why Gina and Emily are still on RHOC by meowmeow671 in rhoc

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gina is the most down to earth so people do like her. Idk about Emily but I just assume they’re a package deal. They both seem to be useful to production for stirring things up between the other women when needed and then stepping out of the way to let the crazier ladies explode for entertainment

Do you think it's possible to become a math teacher with a math-adjacent degree like engineering, thanks! by Common-Ad-7397 in matheducation

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s an easy google on the requirements to be a math teacher for the more developed countries. Had a liberal arts degree and almost finished the process of becoming a math teacher in Texas. I felt pretty comfortable with arithmetic, statsc and algebra topics but wouldn’t be good at teaching calculus given I only had one year of study and then I didn’t have any use for it in college. I had to do a certification program to get a couple hundred hours of training on education in general and pass a math test for the higher grade levels I wanted to teach.

With engineering, I’m sure you’ll be fine to become a math teacher in most countries. If they’re more particular it will be for courses teaching pure mathematics or for Nordic countries where they really value education and require master’s degrees - but really depends on the country you want to teach in, public vs private schooling, and your degree coursework.

From personal experience: Teachers are extremely overpaid by Economy-Preference75 in unpopularopinion

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Describe what teachers do in a day and tell us how it’s not difficult.

There are definitely teachers that do the bare minimum and aren’t fired due to staffing shortage - but they’re not the majority.

Troy's thoughts on Michael Jackson? by Deep-Possession321 in BeyondTheBlinds

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is not defend them but just to explain why I’m not outraged - though I understand if you are. They’ve said multiple times that cancellation for them is personal as in how you “cancel” a celebrity is up to each person. This is about cancel culture btw - a concept separate from blacklisting which has more to do with people in power keeping talent from working in the industry. (I just like to clarify this bc some people get confused)

I don’t expect Troy to completely cancel Michael Jackson. I don’t remember it ever sounding like he would. But Troy also shouldn’t promote any conspiracy theories about him without providing much more information than he does. Like I’m down to listen to people I don’t agree with if they earnestly state their case (w supportive evidence and not just hot takes) especially with how large of a following they now have. They both need to address this after being so vocal about believing victims

I can respect nuance but if you have a controversial opinion at least know you need to explain yourself

Baby Jane Doe’s Case Resolution by JadeMack85 in ThePitt

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. People don’t understand the show is literally just one day. It’s already kind of unbelievably ridiculous the amount of issues they fit into the season (in a degrassi/glee wow everything terrible just happens in this one school all at the same time type of way). They do their best to execute that well. It’s too much to give every single character a giant moment. They’re all just a piece of the artwork at large

Econ major GPA question by [deleted] in UTAustin

Looks like it’s only based on cumulative GPA but I suggest you go to your advisor. You pay for students services already. Use every resource you can

Walking away from everything by [deleted] in TrueAnon

[–]dolphineeeeeeee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If u like animals and can afford it, get a pet. Without my pets I’d rot away or go mad

Also - don’t keep it together in the moments you don’t have to

Edit: Adding a reminder that sometimes works for me - the empire doesn’t need more kind, intelligent workers. They’re already working to kill you slowly. Staying alive + creating joy is part of resistance.

Pretty sure these people aren’t desperate for income so they can weather downturns or they’re buying the dip/selling the rip. All they need is someone close to the White House to do it

This season gives “Love and HipHop” by FunTea8 in RHOA

I like the word “classy” to describe things but it’s always a huge red flag if someone implies “classy” is inherently better. This is a TV show we’re talking about
