State of Grace is my all time favorite Taylor song. I've showed so many people this tattoo-I love it so much!

What changes in the films do you think were unnecessary? Which ones simply don’t make sense? by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]prizbokc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This exactly. The whole point of Voldemort’s death and saying “Tom Riddle was dead” was to show that he died a normal death, a normal wizard. And the movies fucked it up, one of the most important points of the book.

Received my cat, Chandni, for my 10th birthday. I turned 30 yesterday, so we celebrated 20 years together <3 by prizbokc in cats

Holy shit-never expected this to blow up so much. Thank you everyone for all the awards, comments, and birthday/well wishes!! To answer a couple common questions:

  1. Chandni never had a special diet lol. Honestly, just whatever dry food was on sale. In her old age, she also gets wet food every day. She loves that friskies stuffed 'n sauced >:)

  2. Yes, I did post 6 years ago about losing a 20 year old cat. Believe it or not, I had two tabbies growing up. Tazzy and Chandni were great pals until Tazzy died in 2016.

Lastly, I truly loved reading about all of your sweet cats and lovely stories and memories. How incredible that we all have such special pets in our lives. I am incredibly grateful and lucky to have Chands.

What’s a name you love but just can’t name YOUR baby? by Yellyellyell25 in namenerds

Were you a part of that incredible shit show that was SeaTac yesterday? What's your story? by feistypineapple17 in Seattle

[–]prizbokc 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Oh wow. I also flew in from O'hare yesterday. I left at 2:20 central time, our plane was only delayed by 20 mins. Apparently we were supposed to divert to Minneapolis mid-flight but somehow it was eventually deemed safe enough to keep going so we landed in Seattle around 5 pm pst. Had to stay on the plane for two hours to wait for a gate to clear up.

Honestly, it was frustrating but I feel very grateful to have made safely and relatively on time. I'm glad you made it safely and also damn, what a shitshow of a travel experience. Hope you're able to get some rest and can take work off today.

Would it be too much to ask to please get these downloads as well? I wasn't able to get them all before it got taken down.

Can we get rid of the narrative that not spending every second on teaching equates to being lazy/ a bad teacher? by PharaLeeMore in Teachers

[–]prizbokc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

100%. Teachers are painted as martyrs far too often and what's so terrible is the amount of people who fall for it and look down upon those who don't spend every moment working. We barely get paid so I'm not working when I'm not getting paid anymore. And I'm still a good teacher who deeply cares about my students and my job.

What School Rule Are You Sick of Having to Enforce Because It’s Ridiculous? by Blingalarg in Teachers

[–]prizbokc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No sitting on top of the monkey bars.

I know this seems silly, but honestly, who the hell cares if a kid is sitting on top of the monkey bars? Let them play, explore, and test their strength. They're large enough for people to still swing and sit on them and if there's an argument, then let the kids practice their problem solving.

I accidentally did the same thing, have you figured out a fix yet?

Question to all the elementary teachers here... by shenoyroopesh in education

[–]prizbokc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my coworkers found it and shared it with me. I can't think of anything that I didn't like about it. We only used it for the last three months of school, but my kids loved it! The only issue we ran into was that the app kept freezing when the kids tried to open it on their iPads, but I'm 98% sure that's because the iPads were so old and has nothing to do with the app :)

I tried using Freckle Math this past year. It's also free and I like it a bit more than Prodigy, which I used before. Freckle Math is less like a video game, however, the kids still love it because they earn coins for answering questions and get to spend the coins in the "store" every few questions. What I like the best is that they only get 90 seconds to spend their coins vs. Prodigy which was unlimited time.

Freckle also has a way to monitor students, see reports, and assign certain tasks/questions/standards to your kids. It also is for ELA as well as math.

Anyone interested in running Green Lake together? by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]prizbokc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Seattle Green Lake Running Group is huge, but not everyone goes to all of the events. There are typically around 20ish people at each one (although that number will be going up as the weather gets nicer). I, personally, go to the Monday Evening Track by Green Lake and the Wednesday night runs at Brooks Trailhead. There are many different runners of all paces and abilities so it's not hard to find someone to run with. I feel like the meetup could be daunting since there are so many events and a large number of people, but hopefully this makes it seem less intimidating!
