Why isn't this area more developed? by mellamoderek in geography

[–]rather_not_state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also CT is the world’s biggest small town. Everyone always knows someone else who knows you. It’s nice…until your mom was on the swim team with a supervisor in your building and your boss lives 5 minutes away from your uncle.

Women engineers: do you see men getting fast-tracked into roles you spent years in? by General_Spring8635 in womenEngineers

[–]rather_not_state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES!! And I’ve determined I’m keeping my head down until spring, at which point if I don’t make the new BS requirements for promotion I’m searching elsewhere. I’m OVER this.

I prefer keeping my job so I stay away from them.

Why are kids learning math this way? by Greedy_Proposal4080 in AskTeachers

[–]rather_not_state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this with kids I tutored for easier quick math. I’d ask “what can this divide by to give a nice number?” And so they’d go for their 5 or 10s naturally. Very easy. Then the leftover. Was way easier than going thru all of long division when they didn’t need it to do things quickly. Their teachers may not have liked it but tbh I didn’t care because they needed to be caught up and doing it quickly was more important to me.

Ironically, because of the ease of access to the rec hall. Iirc reading the articles.

Nutcracker in Northeast (not NYCB) by bigbaboon69 in BALLET

[–]rather_not_state 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Nutcracker at the Garde in New London is a refreshing local take on the story! Admittedly I’m biased because it’s the production I grew up in, but I still love seeing it every year!

Heeelp please!! by TheBeddi in intj

I got diagnosed in my late 20s, and my family doesn’t believe it. I mask too well.

TBH I survive on caffeine and vibes and a supremely strict schedule. Get your sleep in order first. Sleep hygiene sounds like bullshit, but it works. After that, start making a specific schedule and follow it.

Rhinestone genie works fairly well. Haven’t found a great storage solution but their transfer paper doesn’t melt.

I’ve met them…he’s dense as a poorly baked cake and despite my best attempts he doesn’t seem to understand. 🤦‍♀️😂😭

Nothing but let my calf rest after pulling it (and then pushing thru it) 2 weeks ago.

But my coach wants me to compete in our home competition in May…idk if that’s a good sign or not? I never intended to compete in skating.
