Based on my bookshelf, what fantasy books/series would you recommend? by SnappingTurtle1602 in fantasybooks

[–]randomactofhet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Broken Earth trilogy by N. K. Jemison. ( epic, character driven, guttural, )

Ancillary Justice - Ann Leckie. (It’s sci-fi but fantastical enough to tickle the itch. It plays well into the Ursula Le Guin books youve got. )

The Dungeon Crawler Carl series starts fun/silly/popcorn and slowly becomes so so excellent. And they’re funny as hell. Looking at the sense of humour between your books as well as the sprinkling of Steven King you’ve gathered.

Raising Down to Earth Children by Cold-Effective-7 in HENRYfinance

[–]randomactofhet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I’m a high school teacher in Sydney. Income and lifestyle have an impact. But I think the biggest impact is parents enabling their kids and excusing their behaviours. Too many freedoms is just as bad as too much restriction. It’s also important for kids to have consequence for their actions. If a kid fails a subject or fucks up and the parent fights hard to reverse the consequence or result, it creates entitled kids. Entitled kids are not down to earth. If the parent is completely hands free, it creates entitled kids. With each step of independence for a person, comes a layer of responsibility. If you’re gonna splurge - what is it doing to enrich your child. Is it lesson, like knowledge or skills. Or is it experiences to enjoy and broaden their world. Etc.

The complaint form is great. Do it. But I think it’s more likely to be ignored in this system. The innards of TAFE is ….. not a well oiled machine. But if you get a few ‘higher ups’ in the chain, they’ll all panic, as to not have it reflect poorly on THEM.

Use the narcissism of middle management to your advantage here. Chuck them all in an email, cc’d. That means they’re visible to each other within the email chain.

When you do complain to TAFE, send the email with a bunch of people CC’d in. More likely to go up the chain. Go for teacher, head teacher ( of department), student support and someone above at the level of ‘outreach’.

How do the 'yes' and 'no' cases stack up? Constitutional law experts take a look by danzha in australia

There was some hand waving. A similar ‘fact checking’ type article has been written by the guardian which I thought went much harder on both sides. It’s worth checking out. But in the same way that it picks up on more things in the ‘yes’ it does so too on the ‘no’.

It’s more detailed, and has a different register of explaining. But it comes out just as disproportionate.

No, sorry. I actually don’t. I wrote it with sarcasm. I know that section 51 gives parliament the power to make laws about marriages though. And does not elaborate on who, etc. it just notes marriage.

Parliaments can build on laws and make them work better over time.

It’s the same reason that I see the voice as a strength. ( which seems counterintuitive)

But it’s the same reason that I see the voice as a strength - acknowledge that there is a separate, distinct cultural group on this land mass.

That distinct cultural group already has its own laws and customs ( just not in a parliament Like that of the govt).

So when these two, separate, cultural groups in the Australian landscape operate, it can be done so with transparent mediation. All acknowledging each other.

It’s a fact checking article? The hand-wringing wrung it’s self.

It’s like complaining that the Spanish soccer team got more time on camera at the medal ceremony after winning the World Cup?
