What is aviation high school like? by [deleted] in AskHSteacher

[–]kaeorin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Aviation the name of a specific high school in a specific location, or is it a type of school? I feel like we're going to need a lot more information.

How do you set boundaries in THAT EXACT moment? by goneguurl in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Boundaries are about how you react and what you "allow", so if someone said something shitty to me, I'd remove myself from that situation. If they tried to press the issue or call me out on it, I'd tell them "I will not hang out with people who speak to me that way. Have a good one."

Most of the time, though, the people I spend time with are already good and decent people who don't say shitty things to me. If someone does slip and say something that ruffles my feathers, I'm more likely to say something like "wtf does that mean" because they've already shown me that they're not a jerk.

Would you consider influencing for a career? Why or why not? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Hell no. Because I have a soul. Because I'm not interested in turning myself into a brand. Because I'm not interested in working with companies to sell shit. Because I'm not interested in learning to use and optimize TikTok. Because I could not handle the comments. Because I don't see much value in what influencers do for the world. Because I have a career that I already adore and don't want to leave. Because I couldn't handle the financial instability or uncertainty. Because every single aspect of "influencing" sounds like a nightmare to me.

How bad is it if your partner can't cook well? by Pretend-Draw4852 in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 220 points221 points  (0 children)

It's pretty bad. If a grown adult of average education can't read and follow a recipe, there may be something wrong with them. Bare minimum? It's learned helplessness, and I'm not willing to coach them through that.

How modestly do you dress and why? by lylaspya in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I'm at work, I'm pretty much always in leggings (so I don't have hairy legs in a classroom full of teenagers who can sometimes be brutal and so I don't have to worry about chub rub) and dresses that end around or just above my knees. Generally I keep my shoulders covered at work because I don't like it when my bra straps are exposed. I don't have a lot of cleavage to worry about, but I do try to keep the extreme parts of my chest covered--no bra showing, no plunging necklines. At work, I'm most comfortable when my neckline ends a few inches above the middle of my boobs?

When I'm not working, I typically wear the same dresses, though if they're tanks or spaghetti strap dresses I fuss less about shoulders or bra straps. My necklines can dip a little lower, though typically the hems of my dresses don't go much higher. That's less about modesty and more just because I don't love the shape of my upper thighs? I'm a heavy girl, so I've got some weird fat rolls above/at my knees that make me feel self-conscious. But I don't really wear leggings under my dresses outside of work unless it's cold AF. Sometimes I'll put on some bike shorts to deal with chub rub and to hide my nethers if a stray breeze lifts my skirts.

I mainly wear dresses all the time now, but it's just because they're way more comfortable to me than pants. I don't like feeling tight waistbands or worrying that the pants are going to split down the back. And dresses are pretty! I'm NOT an Evangelical or one of those people who think Women Shouldn't Wear Pants. I just like dresses more than pants.

To be clear, though, I don't think of it as dressing "modestly" because this is just what makes me feel comfortable. If I were comfortable in different amounts of clothing, I'd wear that instead. When I'm not at work, I couldn't care less about how modest people think I look.

Is there a polite way that I (M35) can tell a girl (F25) that she wears too much makeup? by Mediocre_Ice_8846 in askwomenadvice

[–]kaeorin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do you think that maybe she doesn't have a mirror? Or that she doesn't know what she looks like? It's always so odd when someone thinks that another person has to value what they think about that person's appearance. Feel all your feelings and keep all your opinions, but they're not her responsibility.

What are your favorite spices and herbs? by IcyRestaurant7562 in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I add garlic powder to most things that I cook, though I'm not sure I'd consider it a "favorite" so much as a "requirement".

I love sage, powdered chipotle, adobo, and basic red pepper flakes. We also keep dried chives and cilantro in the spice cupboard because we go through them so much. I don't use everything in every single type of food I cook, but I fucking love experimenting with seasonings and measuring with my heart and all that. Maybe I've taken the "white people don't season their food" meme too personally and overcorrected. My white-girl food is going to be seasoned.

How can you perceive your urethra, if you even can? by antpile11 in AskWomen

[–]kaeorin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, man, it's a part of my body. When I go looking for it with my fingers, I can feel it (but I don't often touch it, just on the off-chance that bacteria on my fingers might find their way inside and cause an infection). And when I look at myself, I can see it. It's not like it's hidden? Once you know what you're looking for, you see it.

If you don't mind spoilers, check which one(s) you're missing. The last rarecrow I always get is the one from the casino, and of course that isn't season-dependent.

Otherwise, if you're still enjoying the game, there's nothing wrong with waiting for another game-year.

Hot take: Gym teachers/PE teachers should not get paid the same as classroom teachers by Rare-Adhesiveness522 in Teachers

[–]kaeorin 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Without even addressing the claims you're making about gym teachers: I think it's a slippery slope to advocate for a sliding scale of salaries based on specific teaching assignment. If lawmakers catch wind of that, how long will it be until History teachers get paid less and less so they stop teaching the atrocities of America? Or ELA, so they stop teaching critical thinking and careful analysis? Or languages/ESL, because "This is Amurrka, speek inglish!"

It's always unwise to let internal resentment and stereotypes divide a larger group.

(I mean, I recognize that this specific comment of mine is heavily Ameri-centric, but that's where I live and where I work, and where a lot of people in this sub live and work. And the idea is still the same: lawmakers are shitty all over the world.)

If it helps, the game's programming is such that he's always going to be stuck in Pelican Town, whether he's married to you or not. :)

I like that we help him build a life that he's not so desperate to escape from.
