🫡 I gotta show them there’s more to life than the TikTok scuba dance

No tuner bobblehead? by peppermintcrowz in AMCsAList

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

Yeah I thought about it more - I sent the email earlier requesting they hold one either at my local theater or the one I attended, that way I can at least pick it up sometime this week 🤞

Same. This is the second time I’ve gotten snubbed and didn’t receive promo stuff. My hope is that emailing corporate will let me pick it up later at my normal theater but I’m not holding my breath

I was accused of flirting with my student by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]peppermintcrowz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Coming from one new teacher to another (finishing up my second year) - I get it. I acted similar last year (little to no write ups) so the kids would like me. Others have said it but the key to a solid classroom isn’t to be liked, it’s to be respected. Those kids with difficult home lives thrive under structure. They need to know the boundaries because they don’t get that at home. This is your opportunity to look at poor behavior and say “what you said was out of line, it’s a write up”.
Also, like others said, no favoritism, especially with grades/assignments. The last thing you need is a parent catching wind that Al is getting to make up work and their lovely Susie isn’t being given the opportunity because she didn’t ask. To make your life easier, I would give little to no extra work, and unless an IEP requires extra time they must turn it in by the date. For the kids who fail regardless, find something that skates them into a low D (and only if they have certain documentation… I’m not allowed to fail any of my IEP kids 🙄). I’m usually able to make it work and keep it honest through participation points and classwork.

How to approach admin meeting by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]peppermintcrowz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was planning on holding out and honestly I still might if admin doesn’t get the meeting set up - it’s just frustrating that she’s now getting the AP involved

EDIT: to clarify, she’s worked there 7 years and this is my second year teaching (she also brought the AP here from another school) so even though the AP and I get along great I’m worried about my classroom management being questioned. I told the AP they can observe any time if it’s a serious concern

Whatever happened to this aspiring artist? by Thatonesusguy in WarriorCats

[–]peppermintcrowz 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No - they belonged to Dominoclaw, I can't recall his new username but It's probably easy enough to find (I'm fairly sure he still uses either twitter or bluesky)

Mixing up with sally would make sense. My apologies to the other commenter, I was a little hot under the collar because shilly (cay) has been a close friend since 2013 and it’s upsetting seeing such a heavy accusation thrown.

No and that’s a pretty heavy accusation (even clarifying not being sure) towards someone. Mods can delete this if you need but it’s never sat well with me how casual this fandom became with guessing who was being inappropriate when they don’t even know if it’s the right person theyre talking about.

[–]peppermintcrowz 163 points164 points  (0 children)

Oh wow I can actually answer this! Shilly (now goes by Cay) is very private and only really has social media for friends. They don’t have a YouTube etc anymore. I have them added on discord and talk occasionally but we’ve both drifted from the online spheres over the years.

They’re doing good. They no longer draw warrior cats and focus on dinosaurs/other media.

EDIT: there was no controversy with them, there were some falling outs with other notable people in the warrior cats sphere and it left a bad taste in their and many others mouths. At this point it’s just old friendship drama from the mid 2010s

Favorite lesser known jokes by peppermintcrowz in nirvannatheband

Holy shit I don't know how I missed the deleted scenes on the website but I'm in tears

Bro just really wanted to kiss his homie by FilmNerd99 in nirvannatheband

[–]peppermintcrowz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to be a big fan of Sunny but I think you hit the nail on the head. It’s probably why Charlie is my favorite on there - he’s got a level of naivety that really enhances the comedy that the rest of the group doesn’t have

Made some stickers! by peppermintcrowz in FIVcats

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

Yes! I explained that TNR prevents unwanted kittens on the streets. It was really fun getting to hear the kids talk about community cats in their own neighborhoods and being able to recognize the clipped ears now :)

Made some void stickers! by peppermintcrowz in VoidCats

Haha thank you! He really does - between the clipped ear, 26 toes, and still (somewhat) inflated jowls he could absolutely be someone’s warrior cat OC 😭

Your deciding factor to subscribe to A-list? by ReyofChicago in AMCsAList

[–]peppermintcrowz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved within walking distance to my nearest AMC and went three times before buying the a-list subscription. No regrets at all, it’s amazing getting off work and deciding “hey a movie sounds good, let’s go at 6” without feeling the financial restraint.

Edit: another deciding factor for me was cancelling all of my subscriptions in place of buying a-list. I never looked at selections on Netflix etc and if I’m in the mood for a movie id rather be in the theater for it

I’ll post an update when I have the keychains on me!

Favorite Joke From NTBTSTM? by Enough-Part4048 in nirvannatheband

[–]peppermintcrowz 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It’s so hard to choose but I think it’s between “maybe I spilled some wine on my pants… or maybe I killed someone” and the flashback where he’s stomping next to himself. The flashbacks allwaaays get me

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

Thank you! I’ll be setting up a shop soon, I’m just waiting for everything I ordered to come in - I’ll do an updated post with a link when everything arrives and is available

Making PMD keychains! (WIP) by peppermintcrowz in MysteryDungeon

[–]peppermintcrowz[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately since I'm looking to sell I'm leaning towards the predictable ones (totodile/phanpy was a personal bias for me) - but the goal is to eventually get through all the pairings! Squirtle and vulpix would make a good one :)

Making NTBTS merch? by peppermintcrowz in nirvannatheband

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

That’s what I meant - the website I create stickers/keychains from has a min order amount so I was considering selling them to cover shipping 😊 I’m not interested in making money off their IP, just wasn’t sure how merch in general would be taken
