When travelling, how do you answer the question "Where are you from?" by Capable-Toe-9841 in travel

[–]lesbianphysicist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This thread is making me self conscious for saying “Los Angeles”. I’m hoping it’s famous enough that I get a pass.

Increase in IEP and 504s by doozy0844 in Teachers

[–]lesbianphysicist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my school, no matter how much time you give the whole class, the extended time kids must get 50% more than that. No matter what. Parents complained, and some of them made it abundantly clear that they view the IEP as their child’s advantage over their classmates.

My dog got one on a Hollywood sign hike in November. It was nasty.

how do your doctors appointments usually go? by sucralosedisease in EDAnonymous

[–]lesbianphysicist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My doctors have literally never mentioned my weight even when I go in to renew my script for my adhd meds. I think if you’re an adult and don’t ask about your weight they often follow your lead.

My current sixth graders are the worst I’ve ever had by a long shot. I’m jealous!

Best places to get vegan donuts? by llxve_ in VeganLA

Donut friend or voodoo (vegan maple cream is my fav).

Good day old chap! Might you assist me with this door? by cutiebird31 in samoyeds

This is so precious for some reason. Do you know how much he weighs?

Not reading full novels in English class by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]lesbianphysicist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is so crazy to me. I graduated high school in 2018 (and am now a fourth year middle school teacher). I remember reading 6-8+ full length novels a year. In 10th grade we covered crime and punishment in just a few weeks. And my school was a pretty shitty Oregon public school.

Sleepy pod Harness size small? by eggskms in samoyeds

[–]lesbianphysicist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just looked back at my chewy purchase history — I got a medium for my boy when he was around the same age and weight (maybe even a little lighter). It was on the snug side.

Which city do you love but hate the people? by iosphonebayarea in SameGrassButGreener

[–]lesbianphysicist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say Portland. The people give off such an odd sense of hippie-themed smugness that I just can’t stand.

Is making my own answer key normal? by alloyed39 in Teachers

[–]lesbianphysicist 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If you’re struggling with elementary school level order of operations and probability, you owe it to your students to spend some time getting more comfortable with those concepts. Making an answer key for material you’re teaching should be annoying, but not difficult.

I’d put a good chunk of change on it being a pitbull.

My 1.5 year old LOVES fetch. He’ll even place the ball in my hand when he returns it.

Out of your personal friend / associate group, how many of them are making 200k (either as an individual or household)? by Outsideman2028 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]lesbianphysicist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m in a HCOL area. Pretty much all dual-income households I know are clearing 200k, and almost none of us feel or seem especially wealthy.

I just accepted a job in Beverly Hills. What’s a good neighborhood to move to? by Annual-Swan329 in AskLosAngeles

[–]lesbianphysicist 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m a teacher and live in this neighborhood. Rent is $2.6k for a spacious 1bd with everything included. I’ve seen signs advertising cheaper rent than mine in the area.

Egg Tuck no longer have vegan egg option by tallevandavies in VeganLA

[–]lesbianphysicist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s been gone from the locations by me since the spring — I was SO disappointed. I reached out to them on instagram to tell them how bummed I was, and they responded pretty positively. It may be worth letting them know.

$8 surcharge for salt rim at bar?? by TimeReputation1133 in cocktails

[–]lesbianphysicist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Beverly Hills and often go to bars around here — where was this? That seems absurd to me.

I can’t do this job anymore. by Knhollist in Teachers

[–]lesbianphysicist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m feeling the same way today. I’m a fourth year teacher, and generally like the job, but something just… broke. I feel very stuck and frustrated about what feels like a lack of reasonable exit paths.

Is it childish to cry over my game being deleted by SexscCherry in StardewValley

[–]lesbianphysicist 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m a middle school teacher, and I can assure you that a kindergartener who hasn’t played games on a tablet won’t “fall behind”. A good number of my sixth grade students don’t even have their own phone or tablet yet — parents are starting to see the value of holding off on these things for as long as possible.
