When I bought my first car, my dad (who owned the dealership lol) shredded the paperwork that I signed in cursive, and made me re-write in block letters. It’s the only car or other big-expense/important thing that I didn’t sign for with my usual signature.
My other confusing problem with that transaction was I wasn’t allowed to buy the kind of vehicle I wanted. Yes, I was already an adult living on my own by then, but I figured he knew best. (he did not)
I eat breakfast consistently, usually some form of rice porrige and various veggies. Lunch is my most skipped meal, but I forget to eat dinner sometimes too lol
If I’m lucky I made rice for dinner and have left over to stir fry the next morning
I have no idea what this is called, since I’m still new to Apple, but iPad has a handwriting correction feature in its Notes app. I recently had surgery on my dominant arm, so that feature really came in handy for taking notes at uni. I write in cursive with some mixed symbols and it’s able to handle that.
Maybe when going for a mini laptop you can try finding a tablet that also allows for a Bluetooth keyboard, this way you get practice writing by hand but can swap to keyboard after some time.
Alternatively, you could try the Pomodoro method while writing. I find it helps when my adhd is too stronk
My dog smells my car bumper on days I’ve been out, so I assume she thinks I’m taking the car for a walk
From personal experience knowing someone who posted that stuff just to get a reaction out of people: he was beat by his dad (who then divorced his mom because she produced “that”) and was severely bullied in high school. It’s not an excuse, he just desperately wanted the world to feel as miserable as he did.
He showed me a video of someone being shot in the head once. Mind you, I’m the kind of person that breaks down when I accidentally run over an animal or hear a bird splat on a high-rise window. He thought it was okay to show me without my consent because the guy lived, but didn’t understand that violence, pain, and disfigurement are just as traumatizing as death.
He diagnosed himself with Anti-social PD while taking a psychology class, take that however you wish
There’s a Native American phrase that is a morning greeting, but it means “you survived the night”
It’s very easy to make with a mold, and you can add any fillings you like
Horizon: Forbidden West because the story,music, voice acting, and gameplay really pulled me in. I felt a lot of emotions that I hadn’t felt in a long time because of this game. When it ended I felt like I was losing something dear to me lol
Baldurs Gate 3 left me wishing for more, but that is entirely because the third act was so damn rushed compared to the rest of the game.
I have some Ruffwear boots that I pair with socks for my dog. I got them six years ago, so I’m not sure how the quality holds up now but I still use the boots every year in Montana. I will say I found their sizing guide to be true to size!
I only own one Nintendo game on my Switch. I’m not going to sit here and pretend most of my games run great on it though. Slay the Spire and Stardew run well. But I’ve had quite a few crashes with Civilization and some hangs with Hades or Hollow Knight too

I still sing this song when I’m torturing myself with shoe shopping lol
Wait, do they keep reusing the same username? Because I feel like I’ve been playing wack-a-mole blocking a certain user, and it makes a lot of sense that they’d just be creating new accounts constantly
Teflon and certain ceramic non-stick pans can’t handle the heat needed to sear a steak. You can look up the heat range of your pans, but generally if it isn’t cast iron or steel, it’s going to warp or degrade the coating. That means they won’t last as long.
On the other hand I’ve never had to toss a cast iron pan. Sometimes I’ve needed to scrape off seasoning and redo it, and it’s rare to ruin a cast iron pan to the point it can’t be redeemed. But I’ve just bought my first carbon steel wok because it’s much lighter than cast iron
Be the change you want to see! Lemmy loves specific animal communities! Bats and superbowl come to mind
I think he doesn’t need math tutoring. He needs someone to sit with him while he does his homework, and he needs encouragement. Our education system just marches people through to graduation without giving them the chance to breathe.
But, I agree, our teachers have been struggling for decades.
I tutor high school students in math and science. They’ve all taken a budgeting class. One of my students is taking calculus and I genuinely feel he has a better understanding of it than I do!
I am glad he has the option to take calculus, he’s one that gets bored at the place other students need. But I really don’t think many students need it or can fit it in their graduation tracks.
We also need to consider how difficult algebra was for some, to the point that a lot of adults think they hate math. I like the comment in the op that Applied Calculus skills (real-world story problems) are useful, and I think that would have more impact than two-three semesters of calculus.
He said that if anyone audited they’d need to be able to read my name in the signature. I still trusted him at that point so I didn’t have much reason to question it lol
