Haha, same here. We’ve been on this ride before, and it wasn’t fun the first time.

Lol, yeah it does add up!!

Congrats on 4 weeks! You don’t have to let this shit election screw it up. If you want, the folks at stopdrinking are pretty supportive:

This is my take too. Bad situation, and stressful middle part, but reasonably good resolution. How you and your daughter move forward is a good way to refocus your pent up frustration.

I hope the vent helped! It sounds like part of what’s bothering you is that you expected better. That’s reasonable, but I hope you regain some confidence in her school and the teachers. The apology from the teacher is direct, takes responsibility, and restores the grade. That’s pretty good!

They can’t undo the stress from the miscommunication, and they can’t promise it won’t happen again, but the systems for catching these kinds of mistakes seemed to have worked. That’s pretty good too!

(For context only, I’ll add that I have two kids who did online public school during the worst of the pandemic, and are back in person now. We’ve had problems similar to this one in every format, almost every year. So, that doesn’t change anything that you experienced, but I have some idea of how bad it feels, and what it takes to move on. You can do it!!)

No, you’re supposed to buy a loaf, use 1/3 of it before it goes bad, throw away the rest, and buy another loaf.

A YEAR ago?? Was there a second one!?

👀 did not let me down

I thought it was over, and then it just kept going hornier and hornier

Loves Ukraine though.

The meme leaves out the very important detail that most of the researchers working “for free” in the first panel are definitely getting paid, and usually by public funding (public universities and/or grants from taxpayer-funded institutions like NIH, NSF, etc.). That’s a big part of what makes it a scam.

Same, but we knew it was going to be about tortillas didn’t we.

This was fantastic! If you haven’t seen it already, I think you might enjoy Jenny Nicholson’s introduction to the Church Play Cinematic Universe: https://youtu.be/ZK4gM7RC1M0?si=pjoHwez2JKdYHWUp

powerhouse of the cell!!!

Cold-brewing pop user here

Chiming in to agree; they get even better.

I used the golden ratio bad. But my design is, still.

Seems good actually.

I think some others here are missing the point of the question. Right now people are arguing about the fosstodon mods policy that all posts there must be in English. People are coming at it from every angle you can imagine, and maybe some you can’t. It’s amazing! Here on Lemmy we had our own little drama with behaw (de)federation a while ago. (How did that play out? I didn’t pay close attention.)

I think OP is asking how to convey that drama of fedi culture. Not (necessarily) the technical aspects.

“I committed them to memory… I forgot.” I think about this every time I forget something, which is a lot.
