psysop,

How about some billionaires too while we’re at it?

psysop,

The key is ‘to one of my people’ here. You can charge interest, just not to your fellow countryman.

Edited to add: There is more far nuance to this than I’m familiar with, but I’m pretty sure that’s the basic idea.

psysop,

It might be silly, but I love this picture.every time I see it.

I really want to know the background on it. Where and when was it? Who was playing? Did she intentionally kick him? Did she know him? Does she still? Was the picture a happy accident or did they know it was coming?

The world needs to know the answers to these pressing questions.

psysop,

This actually kind of sucks because then if/when the votes don’t look close to how they expect according to polls they automatically assume something fishy happened.

And yes, I realize many will think that regardless.

psysop,

Is this actually accurate? If so, can it please gain traction and attention? We can’t allow these creeps to play games anymore. It’s time to stop letting everything slide.

psysop,

Sounds like a fun way to interact with the kids. They must love you coming to the games.

Career advice: should I give this interviewer a second chance?

Yesterday I had an interview for a certain position. Last Monday it had been scheduled for one location but on Friday it got moved to another. At the last minute yesterday, apparently it had gotten switched to the original interview location, and I was not notified until I got to that second location and waited a few minutes. I...

psysop,

Eh, people mess up sometimes. If the apology seemed sincere and you actually want the job, I would give them another chance. If not, don’t.

psysop,

Parents should be aware of what is going on in their kids’ lives.

This means being a parent and actively being involved in their life. It does not mean abusing the trust that kids give to teachers, councilors, therapists and other adults they might confide in.

psysop,

Perhaps therapist was the wrong word. Many schools have health officers who act as emotional support staff that work with students.

I believe all educators have a duty to the well-being of the student ovet the parents. Students are people too, not a thing that parents own until they turn 18. They should be afforded confidentiality too.

psysop,

Hey sorry, I really wasn’t looking for a long argument here, just wanted to clarify my earlier comment.

But yes, we have different viewpoints. I have kids. I would feel responsible for the window because it’s my kid and that’s reasonable and what society expects. If my kid wanted to talk to their teacher about something in private I’m ok with that.

They obviously won’t share literally everything, but if my kids have a problem trusting me then I’m failing as a parent.

psysop,

If there exists an ideal food, perfect beyond measure, this would be it.

Personally, I think the phrase ‘colored people’ sounds negative and offensive today. I have to assume this wasn’t always the case since it makes up 40% of the NAACP’s name.

Edited to add - I should have said ‘potentially offensive’. I do feel like the context in how it was used matters in this case. Our perception of things sometimes changes over time. If we have truely decided as a society to avoid the phrase entirely, then perhaps it’s time to rename the NAACP?

psysop,

Learning everything the hard way has made me a natural consultant and mentor. Because I’ve already explored all the wrong paths, I often know someone is stuck before they do, understand what threw them off course, and show them how to get back on track

This really hits home and is something I simply don’t see often in juniors today - a desire to tinker, experiment or ‘play’ to figure out how a problem might be solved. I’m always telling them to allow themselves to struggle for at least an hour or two before asking for help.

psysop,

This is a nice quick read with some practical advice learned through read world experience. Thanks for sharing.

I deleted the app and reinstalled. ‘Delete account’ is confusing - am I deleting it from the app or from the server entirely? I feel there is could be a better word to describe removing the account from just the app.

Looking for a new sound and can’t quite land anywhere

I am looking to upgrade my guitar but I can’t come to a concrete decision. I currently play an Epiphone Wildkat Studio which I have enjoyed thoroughly, but I feel as though a different instrument would allow me to broaden my range further. It’s a very bluesy guitar with a beautiful fat and clean sound, so I’m looking for...

psysop,

Whine, scream and chug makes me think you want something a bit more on the hard rock and metal side? Have you checked out anything in the Epiphone Prophecy series? Or even any of their solid bodies?
