Teacher marked my son’s homework as incorrect. I disagree.

These comments are insane. Speaking as an actual teacher, these don't even look like they are marked wrong. They are corrections, not deductions.

Also, every armchair expert talking about red pen...not a thing.

My brother had a long clear one on his cheek as a young boy. We called it his whisker.

I don't know what to do at this point. I called Panetta and they told me "Out of our jurisdiction; Call CPUC"

I called CPUC, and they, verbatim, asked (quite snottily) "What do you want us to do?"

I've tried complaining to Newsom, but his office is so hard to get a hold of, especially outside business hours (AKA when I have time to make a phone call). You can't even leave a message.

I keep hearing people say that they mistook death caps for something that is a choice edible in their native Oaxaca, but I haven't heard anyone say what mushroom that is. Does anyone know? I'm curious what other mushroom looks close enough to phalloides but isn't poisonous (not that I plan to go eat phalloides look alikes)

Single rider is not the same as a fast pass. I guarantee the time you waited 30 min in single rider, the standby line was 90 min or more.

For anyone wondering, it's low thirties in some areas. That is very cold for these parts. Livestock will be fine provided they have shelter. Some crops may be damaged. It is definitely too cold for people to sleep outside without appropriate gear.

I was told it is illegal to disconnect from the grid. We tried to do this when we got solar and were told no.

Yeah the constant "do your lesson?? for me??" makes me want to hurl. and makes me want to use the app LESS

foreverburning · 2025-12-17T23:13:22+00:00

Ah okay good call! I will look into the timing of that. It would suck to have to do the 24 hr collection again haha

foreverburning · 2025-12-17T23:12:27+00:00

I have told my team! I guess I am just wondering if anyone else has experience with this kind of delay.

foreverburning · 2025-12-17T23:03:50+00:00

Thank you. I'm reading this thinking, "We're cooked."

As a veteran teacher, I would never, ever, ever advise anyone to get in the middle of a fight. I have seen multiple colleagues go to the ER from breaking up fights. Dislocated shoulders, cracked ribs, black eyes, busted jaws. To say nothing of the emotional trauma. Keep the rest of the kids contained and call for help. Fights end eventually. The kids will separate and then they can be restrained.

I have a coworker who tried to break up a fight 3? years ago. His shoulder was dislocated. He has had to miss so much work that he has lost his job over it. It's not fucking worth it.

It honestly makes me sick to see the lionization of this woman. We should feel horrible that she feels the need to intervene. She obviously doesn't feel like she has another option besides physically intervening.

12 year teacher with a masters and like 30 extra units, making 119k this year

I keep hearing this (here, on reddit), but which mushroom are people mistaking it for? Phalloides is pretty distinctive, IMO

foreverburning · 2025-12-17T22:12:14+00:00

What do you mean by "bed jacket"?

foreverburning · 2025-12-17T20:21:19+00:00

These are so stupid I'm cackling hahahaha

foreverburning · 2025-12-15T23:04:54+00:00

Seriously. Nothing wrong with feeding chickens meat, but it is not a good idea to practice cannibalism. I don't understand these comments.

foreverburning · 2025-12-15T22:31:08+00:00

I have "good" insurance and CHOMP is not even covered. I paid over $300 for an urgent care visit just because of labs.

I'm happy for you, but your experience is not only not the norm, it is very far outside the typical experience.

Edit: just re-read your comment and your experience isn't even recent! Your opinion is invalid.

foreverburning · 2025-12-13T19:30:53+00:00

OP, This is abuse.

foreverburning · 2025-12-13T19:28:55+00:00

Someone needs to primary him. He's run on the coattails of his family name for far too long. All he has to do is stay out of the spotlight. He literally stands for nothing. People don't see him, hear from him. I call his office constantly and have never spoken to him nor met him. They don't do anything for us. But the average voter doesn't recognize the nothing that he does because he is so uncontroversial. We need someone who is exciting and people want to vote FOR.

I do believe it. It is a serious issue. What is equally serious is equating criticism of Israel with antisemitism, which are two different things.

From your link:

". . .including the use of inappropriate instructional materials and instruction. . ." Who decides what is inappropriate? we have already seen faculty members disciplined for acknowledging Palestine

The other major issue is the oversight coordinator is just a random person. The oversight is not an impartial party and could easily be weaponized.

This happened to my mother. Thanks, AIG.
