you know, the only teaching jobs where you are paid more than minimum wage.

Oddly in the US, its the other way around. Colleges have moved towards hiring "adjunct faculty" to be teachers, often paying around minimum wage. While lower schools (at least around here), typically pay more than double minimum wage, often more than triple (even assuming teachers work 52 weeks a year without any breaks/vacations). Researchers (if they can keep a constant flow of grants) and coaches get paid well in universities, but that's not for teaching.

But yeah... high schools seem to have no problem with male teachers. Elementary, idk. Might just be men don't seek those positions because of the assumption they won't be allowed?

It would be common knowledge that deflation is good solely because it benefits those at $1mil

Probably should do it to avoid stepping on the stray Legos from all the activities today.

Not a gag reflex, but I realized potatoes have been putting off a kinda bad smell when cut and I assume it was just some weird batches of potatoes. Finally just asked my brother today if they just always smell like that and he confirmed they did. So far, I think being able to smell the bad smell of cut potatoes is my least favorite effect of HRT...

I think it supposed to be a respect thing for people higher in a social hierarchy? So, people like presidents always get surnamed. I don't think its that common in normal everyday life?

At the very least, they might be willing to give the generic starting dose without an immediate checkup and want a follow-up in 3 months? Mine didn't do hormone bloodwork until after 3 months for the first Rx (but did require a basic metabolic panel to check K for spiro)

Huh, I was kinda expecting to be shot since I answered questions. Thanks!

About 13,000 km maybe.

In the community I post in and read the most, I certainly recognize almost every poster. But in all communities, I recognize the most prolific of posters, but few others.

I thought it was just wrapped in plastic at first and was confused until I realized those were scratches on the front glass.
