teachers, share the weird crap your kids have done!
I’m not a teacher (yet) but I do work with students and one of them had the nerve to look me dead in the eye and ask me “why would it be a bad idea for me to eat this entire marker?” They’re 11
I’m not a teacher but a girl asked if because potatoes have more chromosomes then humans why aren’t they a more complicated form of life, then had an “hyponuse” (hypothesis) that humans are too dumb to understand how complex potatoes really are
I teach 4yr olds. I was holding hands with one and talking to another and all of a sudden, I felt wetness on my hand. I looked down and the kid whose hand I was holding was trying to fit my whole hand in his mouth.
I came in to a 3rd grade class to help them learn to code in Scratch and I got a thank you note that said “You didn’t help me but thanks”
I was a teachers aide in a kindergarten room and this one girl swore up and down that she could pick me up by my ankles but wouldn’t show me because she “didn’t want to embarrass me”. This is the same child that sat on my lap so that she could sneeze in my face. Every. Single. Time.
people really need to stop making fun of young trans boys who go through the “im a soft plant boy uwu” phase, who dye their hair pastel colors, who go through the space prince phase, who dresses very feminine. realizing you’re trans can be pretty tough so staying “soft” can be a good middle ground for these young boys who were previously raised feminine. making fun of young trans men that call themselves soft/soft boys is so harmful. let them find themselves, grow out of it on their own. if you consider yourself an “elder” and make fun of these kids you’re a terrible role model.
if you’re cis you can rb this just don’t speak on the subject
also just. stop making fun of gnc trans men altogethor. its not something to grow out of for everyone and thats just as okay and acceptable as it is for boys who its just a phase for.
how a trans man wants to present himself isnt anyones business but his and not a single one of them deserves to receive shit for it
For the past 27 days, a small Protestant church in The Hague has been conducting round-the-clock religious services to protect an Armenian refugee family from deportation.
By law, police officers in The Netherlands are not allowed to enter places of worship during religious services. So, reverends from around the country have taken turns holding services at Bethel Church to prevent officials from arresting the Tamrazyan family, who have been in The Netherlands for nine years.
“By giving hospitality to this family, we could give them time and place to [demonstrate] to the secretary of state the … urgency of their situation,” Theo Hettema, chairman of the General Council of Protestant Ministers says.
The last report was 26 nov 2018, at which time the service was still going on and there hasn’t been news since, so it seems that right now (nov 28th, it’s 34th day), the service is still going on.
you’ve heard of mom friends now get ready for: Anti-mom friend. they suggest every single impulsive thought that runs thru their head like “hey what if you jumped in that pond in the middle of the night” to the group while the mom friend begs them to stop
“I went to college, I was 18 years old, I looked like I was 11. I lived like a goddamn Ninja Turtle. I didn’t drink water the entire time. I lived on cigarettes and alcohol and Adderall.”
TIL the Dung Beetle is the only known insect that uses the Milky Way as a reference to move in a straight line despite not being able to see individual stars. Scientists initially thought they were using the moon, however they still moved in a straight line on moonless nights.
I fucking hate space, I hate the universe, I hate science and I hate when shit like this happens. how in the fuck does a wholr species of fucking insects know to look up at the sky at all let alone actually follow the direction of a whole fucking galaxy. why the shit was I even born. why do I exist. this pisses me the fuck off.
