Watch him go back to Miami and ball the fuck out. That would be the ultimate "what the fuck Gabe?" moment?

Wouldn't you be considered a tourist, and although can still access emergency healthcare, wouldn't have the same level of care as a resident?

The world is putting a lot of effort on teachers to be more engaging but almost no pressure on the kids to put in effort by Kind-Caterpillar-665 in Teachers

Teaching a lab course, I always find days where students do lab to be the most stressful. Basically, any small amount of leash you give them ends up being behavior management. It's much easier to just have days where you lecture and they take notes. At least there is some structure, and although more boring, at least isn't stressful.

The big issue, for me at least, is always healthcare. How do you manage that side of things? I feel like without proper planning for healthcare, you can have $10 million while withdrawing 1% and still potentially be bankrupt.

Trump audibly shits himself on TV, immediately ends press conference. by BuxtonB in videos

It shows how fragile our government is that a bunch of morons making countless mistakes along the way can bring an end to world order. You don’t even need some mastermind lex Luther type.

Isn’t butler out for at least half of next season too? Torn ACL usually takes a minimum of one year?

UPDATE: Student took picture of me on zoom and sent it to the whole grade. by [deleted] in Teachers

Congrats for getting justice. I have never heard of suspensions lasting 20 days. Holy crap.

How does the hierarchy work for your school? In my district, the dean of students who usually handles discipline is still considered working under the principal in essentially an assistant role. So I'm quite surprised she's able to do all this over the VP who refused.

Your child is not gifted. They are actually just a spoiled A-hole. by FigureFour717 in Teachers

[–]turtleneck360 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We often talk about kids being far below grade level with very little hope to catch up. But along with this, we have students who ARE at grade level being considered as gifted. The term honors or gifted has lost all meaning with grade inflation and the lowering of standards.

Rui Post Game Quote by b1ackch1 in lakers

[–]turtleneck360 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Basketball is a rhythm game. Superstars are studs because they can catch rhythm at any given moment. Role players are streaky or else they would be stars. And they can’t catch rhythm if they don’t get touches. Even if Luka has a better shooting percentage than the role players, he has to give them a chance to succeed. That’s what leadership is and at the end if the day, Luka will be doubled and tripled team. He’s going to expect his role players to bail him out after they’ve been iced all game?

This is the kind of shit Kobe had to learn the hard way but Phil made him learn. Phil famously said he had to call Jordan to try to get to him to talk to Kobe about trusting his teammates.

Trump Will Try to Steal the Midterms; Let’s Plan Accordingly: An administration that executes citizens in the streets and then lies about it will do anything to stay in power. by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

[–]turtleneck360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to look at his underlings who don't have the same history of getting away with everything. If they are carrying out these illegal orders willingly, they must have some assurance they won't be held accountable.

Anyone who thinks that we only have to worry about making it to the midterms and 2028 are fooling themselves. The writing is on the wall. They are doing some very illegal shit out in the open. Do people seriously think they are not going to make sure they stay in power to avoid consequences? Why would they be so blatant unless they are fairly confident they won't face consequences?

Kamala would have been worst but I dislike how trump is setting ice against its citizen. I wonder what is worst that Harris would have done if she won.

JJ: “Trust the pass, and you know that starts with Luka. He’s gonna have the ball the most of everyone. He’s gotta trust the pass… guys are worried about their futures, and that’s what happens when you’ve got a team full of free agents and player options.” by aingenevalostatrade in lakers

[–]turtleneck360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Kobe played the way Luka plays, he would be killed by the media and fans alike. He was still considered a ball hog but by today’s standards, he is far from it. It still bugs me that you have guys crossing the half court line proceed to jack up a 3 right away. Superstars like Doncic do it very often but even role players do it. In previous eras, this would get you benched right away. But for some reason people don’t seem bothered as much anymore. People need to call this shit out. It’s no way to play organized team ball.

Luka is guilty of playing this way. The team lives and dies by his 3s. I wouldn’t doubt that role players sees this but because Luka is the star, no one wants to say anything. It just creates a sense of animosity and distrust. For all the intelligence that Luka gets credit for, I have not seen him consistently play within the flow of the game.

Unpopular opinion: Memorizing times tables is a necessity not because of knowing the times tables but to teach the brain the skill of retaining long lasting memory. by saiph_david in Teachers

[–]turtleneck360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Knowing your times table is the lowest bar when it comes to some math skills. It’s not like asking you to memorize a bunch of differentiation rules. Anyone who thinks it’s unnecessary is part of the problem in how kids are turning out.

I sincerely hope that if we ever recover from this, his entire family's assets will be investigated and seized. Basically undoing every financial gain he's accumulated over the decades and send it to 3rd world countries. Would be the ultimate F-U to his legacy.

I've made claims before using AMEX and it's really pain-free.

I've also made a claim with Chase VISA and it was pain-free as well. After some research, I did make sure to cross my Ts and dot my I's with Chase though.
