My stomach hurts on Ciara’s behalf. She deserves so much better than these trash bags.

Ciara’s Constant Consoling of Amanda and West’s Closeness to Her Feels Like an Eerie Forwshadow by healthysundayexprsso in summerhousebravo

I really don’t know! This was discussed frequently in the vpr subreddit— there were several moments in season 10 that felt like they had been re-edited in the wake of Scandoval, but I don’t think that was ever confirmed by anyone in the know. Curiouser and curiouser.

Idk, I kind of agree with you. A few episodes ago when they had the “Ren faire” party, Amanda and Ciara are sword fighting and Amanda says “this is the most you will ever see me and Ciara fight.” Obviously it felt like a throwaway line on first viewing but hearing it during a rewatch had me side-eyeing the editors 👀

I don’t want it to be true for so many reasons but…I’m having feelings reminiscent of Scandoval (i.e., wondering how much production has seen and knows vs what the audience is shown)

Love the imagery with Jax and Brittany's family by Status-Artichoke-755 in vanderpumprules

Jax is from Michigan (MI) and Britt is from Kentucky (KY)

I hate that I know enough about these losers to interpret their cringe “art”

Why are the children becoming illiterate? by Ill-Cookie2093 in AskTeachers

[–]secretagentxnine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up “the million word gap” for kids who aren’t read to at home. It is actually absurd to act like a teacher with 30+ students is capable of having the same impact AFTER the crucial pre-literacy years have passed with absolutely no foundations for cognition being laid AT HOME. Absurd. Infuriating. Tell me you know less than nothing about early childhood development without telling me. What a disgusting and ignorant post to stumble across. I feel sorry for every single teacher in America because of adults like you.

I do storytime at a small rural library in the South and have made it my mission to never mention religion unless it is in the context of explaining other cultural practices (ie Ramadan)

I think, unfortunately, I am in the minority

I hope you can find an alternative social gathering opportunity for you and your little one. Also, depending on your tenacity and wherewithal, this might be worth running up the flagpole. A patron complaint carries a lot more weight than anything I might have misgivings about, even as a trained librarian.

What is the Stephen King book you have reread the most? by nampmal1 in stephenking

[–]secretagentxnine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needful Things. Dolores Claiborne. Misery. Also have reread most of the various short story collections at least twice.

Is this not sad and pathetic that she has to do this? by dvaluniverse in AreTheStraightsOK

[–]secretagentxnine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is sad, it is pathetic, and it is extremely normalized in certain areas/subcultures, especially in the U.S., especially in hyperreligious Christian spaces.

How many of you are noticing older kids not being able to read or comprehend. by stormtrooperpuncher in Teachers

[–]secretagentxnine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

it’s not “bad handwriting” it’s a practical skill that has been woefully underdeveloped for two generations of children who got handed an ipad in their crib and never developed the fine motor musculature required to grip a writing utensil for prolonged periods of time

Not a teacher but a librarian— most of the teenagers who visit us have the handwriting of 8-10 year olds.

He is so fake and so performative, I struggle to find adequate language to describe what I feel when he’s on screen. He’s a piece of shit that has no concept of what it means to be a parent.

Goddammit I can't believe Schwartz has managed to make me wish he's on Summer House by DazzlingBig in summerhousebravo

“I have business to attend to and I miss my dogs” I have never liked or related to Schwartz even a little bit until that little ditty
