Teaching.
I been teaching for eight years, I don't like it anymore. I enjoyed it at first, but then COVID hit and... nothing's ever quite been the same.
There's a lot of anxiety and anger in students that I simply cannot fully help them with.
State testing gets more invasive each year.
Dunno, kid's got a point.
Edit: that being said, this looks more of a cry for help than anything. Maybe check if they have some sort of situation going on.
That looks amazing!
Oh geez, that's awful.
Hopefully they get rescued soon...it seems that area has a tendency for those landslides
It's a complicated situation, many people were upset due to the status consultation process being used as fear mongering for some national concerns and as leverage to have people vote a certain way to "guarantee the right choice" by multiple political parties.
This reason is why so many people abstained from voting in these last two.
I personally don't believe Congress will ever grant statehood to Puerto Rico, but my opinion is hardly relevant to this particular situation.
Tldr of why I didn't vote is very simple. If Congress won't acknowledge the multiple results of past referendums and the local parties use the referendums for fear mongering...not a worthwhile effort.
I understand your point, but at the end of the day those that vote are the ones that "count". I personally am one of the many that didn't vote in those referendums due to feeling insulted by them.
The general consensus of this is that why would you vote in this when it won't change anything? Congress didn't approve it, so nothing will come out of it. There are some other reasons, of course, but this one of the most common ones.
We have tried to vote and indicate whatever desire we have for statehood or independence. Y'all (as in US Government, not citizens) just use the results to wipe your asses.
Slight edit: I'm Puerto Rican
I am using it, it is good for me. Don't miss google at all.
I felt my heart break after reading that...how can people be so cruel?
Men suffer too, and this kind of bullshit makes it harder for y'all to get help...
Aw man, I was hoping it'd be better. I will still see and hope for the best.
I heard about Shannara, it seems like a promising read.
Apathy and Instant Gratification go hand in hand.
Apathy because education cannot offer the instant gratification screens and the online world can give them in seconds.
Even when I offer students the option to see movies or play edu-games similar to Kahoot that they show interest in, they don't really show much interest.
As always, remember there are exceptions.
