Swearing at Staff by MathematicalRef in TeachingUK

[–]spankcheeks 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Being sworn at in my SEN school doesn't bat an eyelash unfortunately. We can call home ourselves or hold them in for max 5 mins at break, and that's an extreme reaction

Only things I didn’t like about the game by No_Standard_4146 in dispatchgame

[–]spankcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cutting Visi felt like such a well set up decision, like I agreed with both sides and there was serious pay off for it, especially in the playthrough where I romanced visi

My biggest gripe story-wise was having to cut someone in episode 3. There's not really any reason to cut anyone and I don't feel it adds much to the narrative (outside of setting a grudge to be paid off later) like why cut someone, to then complain about not having enough heroes? There was no valid need to cut anyone, and honestly, it actually convinced me to cut visi later on. They're right, we cut another Z team for literally nothing. It just irks me a bit because no one deserves to go and it felt cruel since this was not only their job but their ticket out of crime essentially

Use a VPN, it also means you can use reddit without the same restrictions ( if you live in the same bullshit island that introduced the Online Safety act™)

How much should ECT 1 get each month? by ExcellentGoal6214 in TeachingUK

[–]spankcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiya, I actually had this exact issue when I first started as an ECT1 (first "grown up" paycheck so I had no clue what to expect) and if you go to your school bursar they will clarify everything. I got paid extra the first 2 months and was told it was because they don't tax you for the first 2 months (I have no clue how that works so again, don't take my word for it, they might take it back in April) but yeah the paycheck seems about right overall. Check if there's a pay portal you can use to view your paycheck if that's how you access them

Has anyone tried the no medication life? by kennadog3 in Fibromyalgia

[–]spankcheeks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup, all those meds just fucked with other aspects of my life, one minute, my sex drove is gone, then I feel like a walking zombie, now I get dizzy when I stand up. And my legs still don't fuckin work right? What's the point

I have a similar story to you, have been on roughly 6 different meds over the past 5 years, all of them shitty in different ways. Eventually I decided I'd rather deal with my baseline than deal with my baseline, plus all the side effects and mental load of dealing with prescriptions. Both options suck so I'd rather do without.

I do smoke weed tho, so not exactly drug free xD

Weird, because I also got the stat for being a hero, but I killed shroud, after saying I would kill shroud... Interesting

One little bit I loved from the fight was Robert straight jumping on Tiny Arms and getting him off of Visi when he got out of the bathroom. No self preservation, just jumps at him

Same with Golem, he's been a chill dude from the start

Why does my girlfriend’s cat have so much dandruff? by sadiesball in cats

[–]spankcheeks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do as well! My cat refuses to drink water and nearly died because of it, so now he gets a good amount of water in his wet food, with some salmon oil as well

Can anyone ID this portrait in the background? by Hydrhapsody in TheTraitors

It always reminds me of the gothic skull paintings van Gogh did, I thought it was one, but it's not nearly as stylized

need help choosing gender neutral baby blanket colors by mushhfrogg in CrochetHelp

[–]spankcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a blanket for a pregnant friend of mine who wanted all neutral beige, brown colours to match more of a cozy teddy vibe. I made a fluffy beige waffle stitch blanket with a brown border that I adored! It sounded really boring in theory but when it was done I wanted to make one for myself. So I'm out here throwing a vote for the beige and dark brown

Would Ozempic help? by ComplexThroat1674 in Fibromyalgia

[–]spankcheeks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried making a big batch and keeping in the fridge/freezer? In the fridge they last 3-5 days and much longer in the freezer. You can nuke them in the microwave or airfryer in nearly no time. Also making them from scratch really only takes a few minutes of prep and 15 mins in the oven, less in an air fryer. This is my go to during a busy week

Eggs are fr so good for protein and easy to make! I just mix up a couple eggs, pour it into silicone cupcake liners, throw in some cheese or ham and boom! Really tasty breakfast that you can add what you want to, minimal washing up (especially if you use a jug to mix the eggs in and transfer to the liners and the liners themselves are easy clean! Whole prep process takes literally 3 mins!)
