For context: dark blue is legal, mid-blue is legal with restrictions, orange means it's up to religion or culture, peach is banned with exceptions, red is banned but not a crime, and dark red is a criminal offence.

“What Career Seems To Attract An Unlikely Amount Of Idiots, Despite Being Intellectually Demanding?” (26 Answers)

When you combine low mark cutoffs in university, comparatively low wages for a degree, a classroom full of children, all that damned marking and planning, and the amount of BS that goes on in Teacher Politics, it's hardly surprising that most teachers are either the most wonderful person you've ever met, someone who shouldn't be allowed near children, or just generally incompetent.

I may dislike a name but I don't think it's right to call someone by a different name just because you don't like their name.

50 Funny And Accurate History Memes For Everyone Who Wants To Learn More About Our Past (New Pics)

The idea of a state without political factions, or with only one, is basically a pipe dream due to basic human behaviour and the need to not be a dictatorship, but I believe the sentiment was more along the lines of "not splitting into two groups in which compromise is actively detrimental to your advancement and extremism yields no detriment".

The Anglo-Saxons refers to a group who inhabited the British Isles (but really mostly just England) directly after the Romans got sick of the place and abandoned it. They were Germanic in origin and existed alongside the Celtic peoples who pre-dated the Romans (who were mostly spread along the west coast and top of the non-Ireland island, whatever it's called).

Sia, because of her movie Music. She basically completed the entire checklist for how not to make a movie about autism. 1. Cast a neurotypical person. 2. Use Autism Speaks as a consultant 3. Have a very cliched and unrealistic depiction of autism, and show dangerous and inappropriate means of controlling autism as if it were normal. 4. Throw a tantrum when people criticise you for the above. 5. Backtrack and offer a half-hearted apology when you realise they have a point.

When we are blind supporters of other women. Like, a woman uninvited slapping another woman's ass isn't as bad because it's a woman. Cardi B drugging and robbing dudes isn't bad because men have done that to women for ever. We don't get passes because we've been victims. Also, women who refuse to accept that men can also be victims of the patriarchy. Sure, it f**ks us all in different ways to different extents, but still.

30 Fun Facts You Might Not Have Known About These Cultures And Religions, As Pointed Out By Folks In This Online Group

Oh boy, Thai politeness levels. "Píi" and "nong" to indicate older or younger, used for 1st, 2nd, or 3rd person. For 1st person - "Pòm" for guys, "Chán" for girls or guys being soft or romantic, "Gra-pòm" or "Dii-chán" for extra formality. If you meet someone much older than you, that's grandma/pa. "Rao" is only acceptable around certain old-fashioned people and close friends (this does not include your partner). Your title changes when referring to yourself for the King, as well as observing his title. If in doubt, refer to people as "kun", then their name or profession - the politeness of their profession varies. Also, "have you eaten" is a standard greeting and there are three politeness levels for "eat". There's also a mouse thing. My half-blood brain hurts T^T

Yeah. N. fowleri is the so-called brain-eating amoeba. For some reason, if it gets to your smell receptors there's a small chance that it will follow them to your brain and destroy it. While it's not common, the amoeba thrives in warm water (or feverish bodies) and almost 100% fatal by the time symptoms are diagnosable. Cases are very rare, but I think I remember some kid jumping into a creek or something a while back and just. Dying. There's a good Kurzgesagt video on it.

In Australia, the land of this post, you need to submit samples of the work you do (copies of tests, projects, etc.) and also submit a learning plan every year that outlines what you'll be teaching each term to sub-sections (e.g. The Convicts, Algebra, Geology). However, the system allows for flexibility as to what *grade* of work the children are taught, which means the usual FDCBA bell curve is... warped, I guess. (I'm also not sure who, exactly, is reading the work samples.) Attempts to fix the holes in the pasta-strainer are ongoing...

It's not like you can see much blue in a rainbow anyway, what with the sky and all. I do wish people would stop teaching kids that indigo is a shade of purple, though. Occasionally the dye can have a purplish hue, but emphasis on the occasionally... c'mon, people...

The hill that I will die on is that pedantic people are boring and probably classist. The purpose of language is to communicate a thought, fact, or idea. If you understand what someone is trying to convey, then they have communicated "correctly."

You misunderstand. This is how they make their child "unique" while using a massively overpopular name. Half of the boys in any given class at one point were named Jackson, so you got Jaxxon and Jaxson, and Jakkson, etc. Parents seem to forget they all SOUND exactly the same when you call them! :/

What the person is saying is that being antisocial is more of a mental illness and can be linked to borderline personality disorder and things like that serial killers are antisocial and asocial is basically being an introvert - sorry that was long
