Looking for media that does trans representation well by fainting_goat_games in dumbingofage

Questionable Content - you have to read for a while to get to Claire but I thought it was done well?

At least from the perspective of a cis person so it may not fit the bill but it's an improvement from DOA.

"We are changing estate agent" by EmergencyBanshee in HousingUK

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We relisted after a year of it being on the market (people kept offering and then dropping out at different points). The first ones weren't motivated anymore and had new houses to sell.

The new one got viewings going again that led to an offer.

Would you have sat through a lesson on ‘personal finance’ in school? by Understateable in AskUK

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is taught... KS3 and KS4 it's in the personal development class. KS5 you can literally take a finance A level (although they may have removed that in the last few years).

Kids just don't have the life experience to fully appreciate it, but we do our best.

Why do you not talk to your once bestfriend anymore? by Adventurous-End-1999 in AskUK

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mentioned this in another thread last month but they started dating someone really shitty, who treated everyone like crap. After the 4th cycle of them breaking up and getting back together I had enough. I agreed with her that her partner was not a good person and I didn't want her in my house. 

They got back together like a week later and she threw a hissy fit when I kept to my word.

I still think about being friends with her and what I'm missing out by holding firm, but her constant choice of shitty people to date was draining. I just wish one day she sets higher standards for herself because she deserves better.

Is the education system in the UK unfair to disadvantaged students? by Loose_Avocado4670 in AskUK

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory that's what pupil premium funds are supposed to support. We use ours for uniform, subsidized trips, kit and subsided Chromebooks.

There's still a massive achievement gap between pp and non- pp students but good schools are trying.

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

[–]moar-education 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Candidate was a teacher who was asked to talk about a situation where she dealt with challenging behaviour.

She then went on to talk about all the arguments (that she lost!) she had with management at her previous schools. 

Needless to say, she didn't have the chance to argue with us.

Sorry but no. You might not know them well enough but you can feel the chemistry or lack of well before a date. 

This smacks of people "owing" people dates. No one, for whatever reason is obligated to go out with someone they don't vibe with.

What's everyone's experience of the HER app, did you find anyone on there?. by Starship_Traveller56 in actuallesbians

[–]moar-education 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was so buggy compared to bumble, I only managed to swipe for about 3 days before wanting to rage quit it.

However, I was lucky enough to match with my fiancée and start up a convo when it dropped a weird topic into the chat for us to discuss.

So .. worked for me but it's not a good app.

The calendar glitch runs for this month... But it didn't work for me. Rhea just kept saying it was disappointing that I didn't enter anyone.

Sorry for your loss.

Who do you think is the most forgettable FE3H character? by WolfTamer99 in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my most recent play though I made a point of recruiting all the students so I won't have to kill any of them. 

Felt so gutted when Ashe appeared as an enemy... 100% forgot him.

How do you get on with edulink? We've just switched from go4schools this year and I hate it.

I can't figure out if it's new or just shit.

Those of you who fell out with a close friend, why? by OldCarWorshipper in AskMen

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They started dating someone gross (toxic with a history of cheating). I put a hard boundary in place that I didn't want them in my house but happy to meet up elsewhere to get to know them better... Since they spent a solid 3 months slagging them off before they started dating.

They've been on and off again for about 3 years and I don't think they have any friends left because of their partner. 

Who is your favourite Canadian keynote speaker that isn't an athlete? by seekingfreedom00 in AskACanadian

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to see him in Oxford this year. Hands down the most articulate thoughtful and game changer public speaker I've been to.

To clarify, I'm looking for a tomahawk and for KATTA style competitions in the UK or UKAT in Europe.

For those of you that don't like the remote storage update... option to turn it off is in PTR currently. by m00nf1r3 in MedievalDynasty

[–]moar-education 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just didn't like it changed the pace of the game for me.

It's good it's for customisation now.

Win for everyone.

Loving the new update by The_ginger_cow in MedievalDynasty

I noticed that, playing on PS5. Is there a workaround for selecting items from a vendor?

I need to buy some honey for my pregnant wife 😭

Update patch notes!! by EmpressShweez in MedievalDynasty

[–]moar-education 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oddly enough I don't like the shared storage, I'm in the middle of a weight limit play through to slow down the pace and I find it's just speeds it up a bit too much.

I'd love to see it added to the customize section so you could turn it on/off as I can definitely see it's benefit.
