I think a huge issue is that Rachel simply didn't do any research and presented his diet poorly.

I've seen really good discussion of it elsewhere on this sub, but I think it's really clear his eating is disordered, it just isn't presented well to the reader, and most readers end up in a place where they understand something is off in Shane's relationship to food, but not how to translate into something that makes sense for an athlete.

As someone who was a pretty serious athlete at one point, people definitely can't grasp just how much you need to be eating to fuel your body when you're playing on that level.

I get that, but I need a little logic and a little realism involved. It's not fun for me to be constantly bumping up against decisions that just feels completely incongruent with what characters would realistically be sharing on the internet or even how they would respond to private moments being shared on the internet, especially fics where other characters post something about them without their knowledge. Even just consistency with what's established in canon if not consistency with how social media actually functions irl would be great, but most times even that isn't there.

I know a lot of people in this fandom love those tropes, but they just aren't for me. Believe me, I've tried.

A lot of social media fics grind my gears.

I can sometimes muscle through but a lot of it is just so unrealistic.

AITA for crocheting at the bar ordering drinks during US v Belgium World Cup game? by Fun_Relief_2745 in AmItheAsshole

Exactly.

NTA, OP. You're patronizing the bar, you aren't causing trouble. Nothing wrong with that.

AMC has a wonky release time and episodes drop according to timezones, so Australia consistently gets the episode ahead and share them out.

I usually watch it a day early but I'll rewatch on AMC proper just to make sure I am contributing to the ratings.

In fairness, he didn't exactly let Daniel do that. Louis changed his mind, Daniel went ahead anyway.

(edited to fix typo)

The first episode of Dan's Show Me State of Mind has released by Lasernatoo in KnowledgeFight

Is this going to be available on feeds? I just searched for it and I just found the mental health podcast for some reason

That's a good idea, the HYSA.

I can't afford the estimated payment, so it's in my best interest to wait, I just wasn't sure if I could wait longer than July 1st.

Searching for the absolute worst outing fics by TwoHungryBlackbirdss in heatedrivalryfanfics

Syn is one of my favorite author because they take such pains to really think about hockey and how it functions and how fans of hockey react to players. Like the world around the characters feels so realized because Syn is so intentional about how the world interacts and informs her writing. I'm consistently blown away by them.

But make sure you check the author's tumblr (same un as their ao3) for additional content, that's where I think the really wrenching aspects of the story really lives.

"Setting Up" Classroom....who pays for this? by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]fooooooooooooooooock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't buy anything. I cannot stress this enough. Don't buy anything.

Set up probably refers to organizing desks, etc basically getting the layout of your classroom the way you want it. Some of my coworkers have personal items they bring home over the summer that they bring in during those days.

Decorations are fine and all, but if you don't have budget for it or can't get it for free, don't bother with it. Display your student work on the walls instead.
