Reblogs for sample size would be greatly appreciated. I'm so curious

No you don't get context

Reblogging from my primary blog to share here for anyone who might be interested

You all can also totally ask for context before casting a vote if you want. I'd looooove to talk about them because these are all some of my favorites.

Hearing one of my students say "Miss Collymore is my ride or die" is probably what I needed to hear today.

Reblogging from my other blog because I regret not putting it here, and wanted to add some extra thoughts on my autism blog.

I was barely out of high school for two years. I had only had one semester of education classes prior to this, and it was just an introductory course and a small special ED course. I had only had 1 field placement at this point at a high school where I did nothing but run errands for my teacher because she didn't want me teaching her class.

The shortage got even worse in the following years, and everyone downplayed how bad the situation was.

In fact, the only people who were honest with me about how outright crappy education was as a career were my English professors, and I'm so grateful to them because I dropped my education major and went for English instead.

This was AFTER my favorite professor appeared utterly DEVESTATED that it seemed like I had to stay in education. They were the only ones willing to be honest with me.

The English dean literally went "YAAAAAAAY! Oh wait I'm not supposed to say that" when I told her I switched to just English.

All of my friends in my year that graduated with me are quitting their fields and it's been less than 5 years. They all hate it and feel significantly underprepared.

Never once did we have classes that actually mattered. Oh yeah, I learned how to make lesson plans and powerpoints and how to operate basic tech, but we never once really sat down and had a productive class about student behavior and psychology other than lectures that amounted to "Even if a student beats you or someone else to a pulp, don't fight back or you'll get sued and don't die."

Whenever my students tell me they want to be a teacher, I reply with "No, you don't." My school is very small, and there are still times I absolutely am at my breaking point because teaching is so hard.

At least I'm not sexually harassed/assaulted every day like one of my other female friends is. She works in arguably the worst middle school in my district as a STEM teacher when her degree is in English because the former teacher bungled her paperwork. That's how bad it is for some people.

Truthfully, I probably shouldn't even be teaching since I'm not certified in education, but I work for a small private school where things aren't so bad and the requirements for certification are different. Again, it just shows how dire circumstances are.

I wouldn't wish the struggles of being a teacher on my worst enemy though. Even small student bodies have kids who will rip your heart out on a daily basis. Most of the time, I feel like a therapist who teaches English on the side.

If I could go back, I would have taken more electives in psychology so I could learn how to take better care of my students and myself.

Long story short, don't get an education degree because the skills I learned are absolutely useless.

One of my most embarrassing moments from undergrad was the first time I ever had to give a lesson plan for my sophomore education class during a time period I had severe social anxiety and near crippling depression and I panicked so hard in front of the middle school class that I wanted to die. I used to beat myself down hard until I realized that, prior to the teacher shortage, they didn't let anyone who wasn't a senior or possibly a second semester junior do hard-core student teaching and now I'm beginning to realize it was a little messed up to throw a 19 year in front of a classroom and tell them to have at it.

I love fluffy Mic

AI Dungeon shenanigans with @black-and-yellow 

The AI made up Nervous Nick, but I like him. He was surprisingly bloodthirsty despite how nervous he was

Oh and Walter White was there too, as a side note

bones added an extra scene with izuku saying that the public was lied to about the students' involvement in the battle. they were told there was no students on the main battlefield fighting shigaraki. it's a little thing, but is also genius. really emphasises how shady as fuck it was to draft children into an operation like this and hpsc KNOW that.

Brief context, my friend and I have been writing their oc (who's a therapist) and my mic for a while and at some point they realized it was kinda similar to a harley and joker relationship and we just 👀!!

She can see people's auras/emotions and Mic's color is almost always mahogany red (violence and all...) so basically he can't lie to her LOL

Interesting chart I found listing common traits of OCD, Autism, and ADHD. Hope this information helps! :)

I feel like Travis is so hard to be friends with because he says things he thinks are completely innocent or normal, and it literally just puts an arrow on his back. When they became friends, Sal established a firm "no being mean to Travis for things he can't help policy." For example:

Travis: My parents eloped, so they wouldn't have to do the blood test

Larry: grabs his shirt and pulls it over his face and screams:
