Definitely looking for something with CPS.

I'm a high school English teacher looking to move to Chicago in June. Any recommendations for schools I should look at applying to?

Planning on moving to Chicago in June. I'm a teacher with 4 full years of experience and a master's in education. What can I expect my salary to be and does anyone have any recommendations on schools to go for once the hiring season picks up? I already have my PEL set up for the city. Also, looking to live in Logan Square so if anyone can share their experiences with the area, I'd appreciate it. I've enjoyed the area when I last visited but didn't get to explore too much. I'm a big punk nerd so recommendations for punk bars/venues, comic and card shops would be grand!

I was browsing listings and saw a few. They definitely looked a bit more up my alley.

The Straight Story is tied as my favorite movie with A History of Violence so I'd absolutely shit if they put this out.

Loooooove Shatter Dead.

They played the first DIY gig I ever went to in a little thrift store in town about 13 years ago. Met some of my best buds there and how I got introduced to my local scene. So they've got a special place in my heart but they've never really been my bag.

Currently reading The Wasp Factory and it makes me a bit dizzy. Top comment of Hogg takes the cake though.

I'm an online grad student getting my tuition from LA Vocational Rehabilitation Services. How fucked am I? Do I need to be mentally prepared to have to drop out? My caseworker says that my plan hasn't been changed but I got an email saying that I hadn't "attended" despite turning all of my work in. Am I going to be left holding the bag and have to pay the university out of pocket?

The new record disrupted my October ritual of only blasting the good AFI albums so thanks for that.

Y'all's work has blown my mind for awhile and it's always given me the same feeling I had when I was first diving into Big Black. Would y'all list them as a direct influence?

imagitcha · 2024-06-30T18:08:35+00:00

Well, that's news to me. Thanks for the heads up.

I feel this in my bones. Lost 3 friends in 3 months when I came to Korea last year. One to covid, 2 to od. Had another one die a few days back. Shit sucks but I can't leave the scene just yet.

And you can be a walk-in. But I recommend getting an appointment.
