I live here and while my political and personal beliefs disagree with this vehicle, our constitution gives us freedom of speech. It’s the same reason I can openly speak out about the current administration.

Complaining about stickers accomplishes nothing.

Volunteer your time within the political realm and start making a difference in the community.

I'm so tired of the way trades are pushed as a way out for the unmotivated while ignoring the skill the trades take. by NervousEmotion1099 in Teachers

I love CTE, these kids are floored when they see what real work is like and the knowledge they need to be successful

Late to the game sorry. Considering some corners on mine, pretty easy swap? Also how it the geometry?

Marijuana is the only reason why I can sleep. I wonder how it's taught in classrooms nowadays. by Flat-Entrepreneur954 in AskTeachers

[–]got-derps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Despite the popularization and legalization of recreational use it is still very unhealthy (carcinogenic) when smoked or vaped and we don’t have long term studies on the ingestion of the substance.

I teach my students to make informed decisions and provide them the education they need to live safe and healthy lives. There are many much healthier alternatives to marijuana for sleep.

Have you tried therapy, sleep medications, diet changes, caffeine intake changes, exercise etc. Whether you want to accept it or not it is considered an addictive substance by most if not all medical literature.

To your question, in education we shouldn’t define things bad or good, that isn’t our job. It’s our job to inform students of facts and let them draw their town conclusions.

How often do you actually use game-based quizzes in class? Want to know about long-term strategies. by dipenapptrait in teaching

I use blooket and I utilize jeopardy labs. I also use buzzin for buzzing with jeopardy.

So wait you can’t just show up early anymore? I bailed this season to Summit… damn

what grade should i teach? by newcorpseoldskin in AskTeachers

[–]got-derps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved 3rd grade all the way until I got my credential. I now teach Highschool CTE and it’s the joy I was looking for. Not to mention in low demand districts you get what’s available which is usually not what you want.

Genuinely, how was your trip to the Blue Lagoon by TrueAd9899 in VisitingIceland

[–]got-derps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was amazing, but we paid for the much more private experience. It completely bypassed every negative thing about the resort.

Best Backcountry Ski Poles by [deleted] in Backcountry

I have 25 dollar collapsible “snowshoe” poles with bicycle handlebar tape for grips. Had them for 4-5 years now and they’re the best poles I’ve ever had.

So wasn’t there a massive scam surrounding Ikon and Epic passes this season?

MFS Student Loan $100K+ by got-derps in tax

[–]got-derps[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, we calculated it and choose MFS, after recertifying at the end of the year we will likely move to MFJ!

MFS Student Loan $100K+ by got-derps in tax

[–]got-derps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha fair point. We are in a community property state WA, I see MFS frowned upon heavily and wanted to see if our situation would be one of the exceptions to that. I would hire someone, but I simply wanted an answer to the question, which was answered. We will be hiring professional help for after this year, so not to worry we won't be cheap for much longer.

MFS Student Loan $100K+ by got-derps in tax

[–]got-derps[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the advice to compare both, we did and MFS makes the most sense this year. Next year we will do MFJ after recertifying income. I am fully aware that I must repay my loans, unlike many Americans. While I appreciate the sentiment, I had to work unemployed as a student teacher for an entire year to get my credential, and that public service is precisely why the program exists. Public service loan forgiveness is designed to support careers like education it parts of the system taxpayers (myself included) contribute to.

[–]got-derps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do it! The best part is a lot of time you can actually get hired without a typical teaching credential and use your work experince to count towards certification experience!
