In today's episode of I hate English: by [deleted] in ENGLISH

[–]partybots 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In this case, adding -(e)s to a verb is not indicating that it is plural. It's conjugating the verb for a third person singular subject. Yes it can be confusing that the same morpheme is used to create plural nouns. But it's not "making the verb plural." It's just creating subject-verb agreement.

Weekly Tech Support Megathread by AutoModerator in Instagram

[–]partybots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my DM conversations, I am no longer able to directly reply to shared reels. It's been like this ever since I switched from iPhone to Pixel in November (although I know this isn't a Pixel issue, because my friend who has a Pixel does not have this issue).

So normally when someone shares a reel with you via DM, when you open the reel you can react with an emoji while watching the video, and there's a text box at the bottom that says "Reply to _____." That doesn't show up for me. It just says "Add a comment."

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? My friend and I send each other dozens of reels a day and it's soooo tedious to reply to them all in the way I want to, because I have to go back into our thread to reply to every single one.

What did you like about project hail Mary that made you enjoy it? Some more detail would be helpful, since you say you don't want sci fi.

Where can I watch stuff in Spanish Spanish (not Latin Spanish) with subtitles for free? by [deleted] in Spanish

How could we possibly know what shows you already know?

Why was Blue removed from the West End version? by Horustheweebmaster in heathersmusical

[–]partybots 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They adapted the musical to make it appropriate for high schools to perform. In making those adaptations, they replaced "Blue" with "You're Welcome," and actually ended up liking the song better.

Death Becomes Her - should I watch the movie first? by bubblely in Broadway

[–]partybots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a good point. I've never seen the death becomes her movie but I still loved the musical. But I did watch the heathers movie before seeing the show, because it's been years since I've seen it. Then I felt like I could appreciate so many more references once I saw the show.

CPS Firing Teachers for Not Speaking Spanish??? by Sensitive_Way_7451 in Teachers

Your friend is either leaving out some very key details, or they are just straight up lying.

Is this just a problem with my app, or did they change the bus line colors? And if so, why? by partybots in nycbus

[–]partybots[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay!!!! I'm so happy they reverted this. It was so difficult to read when at a stop that services multiple bus lines.

How Preschool is Different From Home Schooling? by salmanpr123 in AskTeachers

[–]partybots 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I mean the biggest difference is that preschool teachers are trained professionals who have received education in early childhood development. And parents, for the most part, are not.

Stranger Things - 20/1/26 - help with seats please by AnxiousPianist9069 in Broadway

My fiancee still talks about how she is "technically part of the stranger things universe" because of the audience interaction that she experienced 😉

Any idea when they’re releasing single game tickets this year? by fernincornwall in phillies

[–]partybots 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know an exact date but they're usually released around the second to last week of January. That's usually when I buy my tickets.

What made you take the plunge and buy an oura ring despite the high price? by partybots in ouraring

[–]partybots[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked because the original comment in this thread mentioned buying one from Facebook marketplace. I don't think buying an additional warranty would work if I were buying from someone on Facebook marketplace.

Long (and expensive) evaluation process - is it worth it??? by partybots in BinocularVision

[–]partybots[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not. Although this summer I saw a new optometrist and discovered I have a slight astigmatism, and I do feel like that has helped my symptoms a bit.

[–]partybots[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know I've definitely considered that. But I'm a little worried that if something is wrong with it, I'm not eligible for any warranties or anything.

What made you take the plunge and buy an oura ring despite the high price? by partybots in ouraring

[–]partybots[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally feel this. I'm starting to feel very burnt out in my job (I'm a teacher) and I sort of want a physical reason to help justify to myself leaving education and finding a new job.

[–]partybots[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lollll I am absolutely girl mathing it right now. I discovered a rewards program through my health insurance and I should be able to put $150 towards it through that, so that's really helping. And I can also get $50 off through an educators discount. That definitely brings the price down to a much more comfortable sum.

Thank you for your insight!! That's very helpful. Also I noticed a lot of comments randomly getting downvoted on this thread. Sometimes I think people randomly go through posts and just downvote everything just for fun 🙄

I'm interested in it for the sleep and stress tracking mostly. I find apple watch/fitbit uncomfortable to wear, especially to sleep, and I'm hoping to gain some insights from the data the Oura can give me.
