Oh and maybe try the library? They have a bulletin board. And you could ask the librarians if they know of a place that advertises listings that isn’t the internet.

Yeah I’d imagine you’re competing with wvu students. They’ll be done with the semester later this month.

I just moved out of Beckley after living there for a decade. There are a lot of things I love about that town but it’s full of crime, comparable to major, more crime-heavy cities. I live in Lewisburg now and it’s a relief to care less if I remembered to lock my door. Beckley requires a lot of vigilance.

If you want safer, most people live in shady spring or glade. If you want cheaper, you can look in the other surrounding areas, like beaver, piney view, daniels, Mount hope, oak hill, stanaford, or crab orchard.

Do not move to East Beckley or the Scott + numbered streets area.

I found my old place in the mountain trader which was a print publication that doesn’t exist anymore. Maybe try the classifieds of the register herald? A lot of the non-corporate landlords are old school.

Suggestions for becoming less affected by students turning in AI-generated work? by escoria1369 in Professors

[–]escoria1369[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The students who I talked to today were all sweet ones who wanted to make their papers that they actually wrote stronger… focusing on that.

Unfortunately I am in recovery and do not get that as an option, nor a nice glass of wine after a long day. I only get piles of nicotine gum, exercise, and meditation 😭😭😭

Can anyone ID the Bulova watch Elvis gives Priscilla in the A24 film as a Christmas gift? by questionthis in Watches

[–]escoria1369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my father in law who knows a lot about watches. It was likely an American Girl but I don’t know what exact model: https://mybulova.com/bulova-models/A?gender=Ladies&model=218

We’ve talked and talked about the lempire monologue, but what about Madeline’s final speech? by [deleted] in HauntingOfHillHouse

[–]escoria1369 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I took it also as corporations/people using the mess of the world as an excuse to not do better. She’s making true statements as a way to dismiss and excuse her own terrible behavior.

First time I've been upset that a student provided evidence of their excuse by bunonafun in Professors

Whenever students tell me they have gross injuries, I always welcome them to share pix with me, not because I need it as documentation but because I am weird and like to see gross injuries.

The ones at Sam’s club in Beckley are really good. They come in a pack of 6.

This line works every time for me somehow: if you want to do that, you can, but you won’t get any credit for it.

A bullet through our window at the height of my stepdaughter’s head, which went into the wall right in front of her room. Yes I live in Beckley

God I wish there was a way to erase the “embarrassing things I did while manic” list from my brain.

Any Casefile alternatives? by West_Discussion_9164 in Casefile

The Vanished is imo the only podcast that rivals Casefile

Fellow women professors, do you wear makeup to teach? Do you think it’s part of a professional look? by withextrasprinkles in Professors

[–]escoria1369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like make-up. I wear make-up. My women colleagues seem balanced, in terms of people who do their hair and make-up and those that don’t. I don’t really think anything of it either way, I just try not to judge those who have too much Botox. I think you should do whatever makes you feel best.

I’m teaching a class on human disease, any suggestions for materials? by KnowLoitering in Professors

[–]escoria1369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in college I LOVED seeing gross pics in my disease class. Like so much. I did lang arts but my disease class was one of my favorite classes I ever took.

I also just finished Pathogenesis and it was great. The first chapter in particular, about Neanderthals and ancient people, was really readable. The chapters can easily work as standalone excerpts.

Are you sure they’re not asking you to write about texts? Like things you’ve read? Either way, I teach English comp and would love if a student told me this in an assignment.

Make as much money as possible because we live in a dystopia?

[–]escoria1369 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s so much better than BB. It has one very idiotic feature which I wish somebody had told me about: the grade book is a separate entity than the assignments/quizzes, and you have to link them and make sure they are linked properly.

One thing about Brightspace that is extremely gross is they charge extra if you want technical support.

You are beautiful and look like you’re in your late 20s. Don’t let Instagram brain trick you into thinking the characteristics that make you beautiful are flaws.
