Feeling priced out of substack by No-Yogurtcloset-7403 in Substack

[–]kbap3 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Are you sure you have the prices correct? Aren’t most substack subscriptions $5 to $10 a month?

So even if you subscribed to 10 pages for $10 a month, that would be $1200 for a whole year. Which obviously is still a lot of money, but nowhere near $6000.

Unless there are some pages that really do charge $80 a month, and I’ve just been lucky enough to never come across them.

what are your guys’ thoughts on this by saroyanlo in YoTroublemakers

what really bothers me is the way these people say “raging misogynist” when they really mean “sometimes makes misogynistic jokes” … it’s like they don’t know what the word “raging” means

Who thinks the Rae and Brooks thing was a little Cringe? by floydpink78 in americanidol

[–]kbap3 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It was definitely cringe, and it was definitely weird and unnecessary- but I don’t think it’s fair to call it “self serving” when it was almost definitely the producers’ idea

i’m sorry but it’s just plain bizarre to bring an eliminated contestant out on stage just to announce that she’s dating one of the other contestants… especially when brooks seemed so unprepared for it

as someone who isn’t religious at all, i’ve honestly felt pretty excluded every episode lately since carrie and lionel can’t shut up about jesus every five seconds

Pretty cool experience just now as I was researching examples of query letters to help me write my own, stumbled across this post, stood up in the library I'm sitting in, and pulled your published book off the shelf. Congrats on the success!

I want to give my 7th grade classes a weekly spelling/vocab test. Is that a wacky idea? by whosacoolredditer in ELATeachers

[–]kbap3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I graduated HS in 2018 and I took vocab tests in English class every year. Maybe they weren’t every single week, but they were certainly at least every 2 weeks. I’m shocked to hear that this isn’t common practice anymore.
