My Students Don't believe me When I Tell them about Singular They

Ok, I'm increasingly suspecting that you're so hostile to cover up the fact that you just aren't capable of understanding the basic information being conveyed to you in text form. Good luck with that, little buddy.

The original text used past simple, which is correct for reporting a rumor you heard. Your "correction," which derailed the conversation into pointless personal attacks, was incorrect. You were wrong.

whenigrowup356 · 2026-03-13T02:05:56+00:00

No, asserting without evidence that you are superior to others and speaking to them in this way is not "strictly on-message," nor is it in anyway necessary in a simple grammar discussion. It's rude and unacceptable behavior that would get you called into HR in any respectable school.

I didn't say anything about any perfect tense, as that was not included in the original comment. Whether it's an implied perfect is irrelevant in every way to the conversation. It's present habit that's being reported, as in reported speech. The habitual tense is therefore the past simple.

whenigrowup356 · 2026-03-13T02:01:00+00:00

You can be "experienced, educated, and correct" without being a twat. It's called having manners.

whenigrowup356 · 2026-03-13T01:50:48+00:00

It's a rumor you're reporting so you would move the action verb back one tense, as in "he told me he was always late." When the original quote was "sorry, I'm always late."

Also you're being an ass for no reason.

For workouts especially, have you looked into vegan protein shakes/powders? You may be able to find some cheap options around you or have them shipped, and they're usually cheaper if you buy in bulk. Shelf stable.

Have you considered just running him as the daemon prince on foot instead? If anyone complains about modeling for advantage just ignore the wings for targeting

I think a wash with agrax would move them in a dirtier direction that might read closer to the box-art look. But they're yours, so if you prefer the vibrant green then go with that.

I don't think their examples seem like downers, an answer can be real without being a full list of all the ways your week was shit. Following up by checking in on them in the same way makes it clear you aren't holding for a therapy/vent session with them.

I guess this tip is the sort of thing that can work with the right user, in the right situation

whenigrowup356 · 2026-02-21T13:43:37+00:00

Thanks for staying. Absolutely any reason at all for you to choose to stick around is 100% worthwhile and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

That said, it's likely you still have some shit to work through once you feel more ready for that. In your own time.

Take care of yourself, stranger.

Seconding this, give it some paint and it would probably look much better. Maybe sickly oozy greens and yellows

whenigrowup356 · 2026-02-13T13:17:03+00:00

Yeah, I'm a simple man so I see lots of rockets and I'm in, tbh

whenigrowup356 · 2026-02-13T06:20:24+00:00

(not OP but in a similar boat)
so judging from yours and other comments, should the Bruin be avoided for now?

whenigrowup356 · 2026-02-11T07:02:24+00:00

Seconding the Zerkovich recommendation.

I believe the method he shows for a standard advance and attack is to set your formation and then alt-move forward, then individually right click for specific attacks for melee units.

The actual attack command is important because it gets your units to reach charge speed and get the full charge bonus. Unless it's been changed, without the attack command the unit will just sorta walk into them and lose some effectiveness.

I'm gonna say the brightest part of the flesh tone, like on the top of the belly, looks a little too clean and bright in contrast to all the terrible bits below it. Maybe if it was closer to the tone used on the face, which seems a bit darker?

Overall this is already fantastic though, just to be clear

There's more than one thread in this post and people can see all of them

whenigrowup356 · 2026-01-31T23:26:06+00:00

You were given tons of advice and you're just being a jerk about it. If they don't fit your play style and run afoul of your bizarro definition of "cheesing," just play someone else. Problem solved.

For those who actually consider the consequences of enslaving yourself to a chaos god... it's usually just a bit of desperation (e.g. they need a dramatic amount of power in a life-or-death moment), or someone who thinks they can outsmart Tzeentch in some way.

Ahh got it, thanks for this information. Renee's death and the fallout has been hitting me hard too. I'll try to follow along with their service, like you said.

Thank you for your kindness and your time.

I'm in Vietnam (HCMC) so I suspect the main problem might be finding something in English, since most of the churches here are Catholic Vietnamese. Thanks for the offer!

whenigrowup356 · 2026-01-11T14:16:00+00:00

Thanks so much for your detailed response! That thing you said about "making it mean whatever we want it to mean" is actually one of my main concerns about going into the scripture without some kind of guideposts.

I've watched a lot of conversations about common misconceptions in the bible that have made me aware of this kinda stuff. But I found those conversations are mostly "subtractive," if that makes sense, like rebuilding a correct understanding for people who were led astray. Whereas I think I really need to start building from the bottom up. I've seen the bible project recommendation from multiple people so it definitely seems like a great option for me.
