That’s just what I was thinking. Do they swoosh the joke and just assume OP is an asshole?

Yo, is it really so inappropriate?

Should it just be “Walk Like a Hieroglyphic” to clarify that this is in reference to Egyptian writings and not literally how people walk in Egypt? Lol

I’ve heard of these things from a documentary from that era called Mac and Me. I think they also routinely held something called a “birthday party” at them. Unfortunately there are no physical records to confirm that I am aware of.

Technically there is a notation for parallel lines so you can’t actually assume that, but I agree with everyone else that this would have been funnier if it added up to 180 degrees.

Btw. PSA to young folks, that notation looks like > on each line and some standardized tests will fucking get you on a technically with that shit, especially with the “it’s impossible to know” answer being an option.

I can smell the internal mold growth in this picture.

So far comments are pretty judgemental; you should know that male, neutered cats tend to gain weight with standard diets due to hormonal changes. Pair that with indoor-only lifestyle (which is very recommended for safety) and a dry food diet (which isn’t recommended but is cheaper) you have a good chance at a cat gaining too much weight.

Yes, there will also be people who just spoil their cats, but so long as we’re neutering and keeping cats inside then a weight loss drug might be reasonable to offset those factors.

Depressing but not surprising. Their corruption aside, the argument is that it’s not race based because it’s partisan gerrymandering… which is the official (and fucked up) reason for the maps. Partisan gerrymandering is legal, for some reason.

That said, race and politics are clearly intertwined so a bunch of black and brown folk are about to be disenfranchised. So long as the GOP remains the party of White Christian Nationalism, any partisan moves will continue to be racial ones inherently.

I said equivalency, so I don’t think that’s quite literal. That said, it does stick out a bit and is sunken into the phone itself by about a cm.

I’m not really sure how they get the rest of the way.

I did the math for another post and if I remember right the best telephoto lens built into a very recent phone camera has equivalency to around 120mm (anything else is just digital zoom and sometimes AI enhance).

It’s a relatively new gimmick, and it can do wildlife photography from afar (I got some good full body shots of deer recently), but it’s not quite as good as 600mm or the 1000mm from the other post.

Should just show the original, genuine photo (which you can see from another comment from a snopes link); the added L and crimes part just make the real SS thing look faked.

Can confirm. My first poster was still the majority my analysis (and pre-existing data from the lab), but to get it accepted we needed the internal knowledge of how a proposal gets written and for that a graduate was needed.

Funny enough I got into grad school before I even presented the poster, so I was able to just do the rest of the work once I had a little bit of know how, plus a tiny stipend from my new dept!

Truth be told it’d be weird if that part said literally anything else. “Supporters say it’s over her potty training videos.”

As today’s class proves, you very much can go quite a while before a single student chimes in like this. It wasn’t screen sharing, but… similar. Sigh.

Real talk, in 2016 I knew two assholes who voted for him to punk libs as a joke. So uh, kinda yeah.

It is common practice, which is more to the point that it’s weird this teacher didn’t. However, third rate instructors do exist. I’ve TAd for some even at a top 25 school who still just vibe-graded their classes. It’s really unprofessional, but they were hired for research reasons, not instruction.

As others have noted, both student and teacher are kinda awful. The student for obvious reasons, but the teachers assignment and grading isn’t really best practice, especially if you give a 0 when there’s literally any rubric you grade to (and you want that for anything you’re grading seriously).

I teach psychology courses at University level and for written parts you really have two acceptable options. Important papers (e.g. final essays worth 20% of total grade) should always have a rubric-- these you can very much give a bad grade to a student who clearly doesn’t understand what peer reviewed evidence is because evidence might be a 20pt rubric item and without it, an A drops to a C (and that’s assuming everything else is perfect). Having it in writing protects you legally.

The other, much more common assignment like a reaction piece, is mostly to check for participation in reading an assigned reading. There’s usually no rubric and it’s scored for completion so there isn’t any subjective side to it. Quote the Bible or whatever, it’s like a participation grade to encourage reading and if you have a bad take, whatever. These are usually 1% of the grade and there’s usually one every week to keep up with.

Doing anything in-between opens you up to problems, not to mention it’s just unfair to students. If you follow a rubric, you almost never give a zero unless they just straight up cheated.

I’ve seen worse. Idk why I always check when one of you folks say this, I almost always regret it but I hit those comments as people were mostly bashing ICE. Lol

Not very many accidents out in the middle of nowhere highways, although in my experience last holiday season there wasn’t a single jabroni hogging the left lane. Granted, I usually drive everyone back at like 1 am, so mileage may vary.

You’re absolutely right in the middle of the city though, and the number of people who get angry at you for not going 60 on a 40 mph blvd is way higher than it should be. I got honked at and a guy swerved around me just got both of us to get stuck at the same red. Those are the people who will certainly kill pedestrians.

And with that, I make like John Galt and never see that uncle again.

Oh but don’t you want to know first which Democrat places like Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas would like? You know, those bastions of democracy.

/s, like it’s needed lol.
