Whilst Lemmy is growing and trying to compete in content against the goliath that is reddit it needs to be reposted so to speak. I'm not about taking original or potentially original posts and claiming them as my own so it's good practice to source the location of the original.
We are competing with a platform that has existed since 2005, it's no easy task. You may find posts that are original posts. Just again best practice. Source the original.
Just credit the reddit user, that's all you need. If anyone really cares they can go to reddit and look at their profile. That way you can still give credit where credit is due, and not increase reddit foot traffic.
The problem with 3rd class passenger not getting to the lifeboats was that the boat deck was accessible to I class, II class and ships crew. The III class folks were completely unfamiliar with that part of the ship (and parts leading to boat deck - the whole superstructure). At first some officers were mentioned to have enforced class segregation between areas but that was also a time when people went back to their cabins because "this ship is unsinkable, nothing bad will happen".
When it became clear the ship is doomed the III class did reach the boat deck but already most life boats were launched.
This is almost certainly because of the social media trend to destroy public bathrooms. Not "teehee I pulled out a lot of toilet paper" but "I body slammed the air dryer until it broke off."
being an adult now, it's so weird seeing how schools were so overly punitive. why not treat kids decently like in college early on? even in kingergarten i'd understand 'you can use the bathroom now if you want but either way you have to learn the alphabet'
Because students take advantage (i mean we all did im one way or another). The younger the kids, the more parents (and the law) treat the school as responsible for the student and their supervision.
That being said, in my opinion access to a bathroom is a basic human right.
Agreed. It’s stunts like this that lead me, a former high school teacher and college prof, to support school vouchers. Create some competition for these minimum security prisons that the state tells us we have no choice about sending our kids to
What kind of stuff did your classmates get up to? I'm from Europe and we don't have hall passes or gates at doors (etc.) and the students don't get up to bad stuff. The worst I've seen is wet toilet paper on the walls. Or is this some kind of an "If you're treated like a prisoner, you will act like a prisoner" kind of thing?
i mean most teachers will make you ask, which is more of just letting them know you're going, bc they're not gonna stop u unless they're in the middle of explaining something
Extremely charitable guess: they want it to be open to prevent the spread of germs slightly (so nobody has to touch a door), but need the option of closing it after school hours to prevent vandalism.
Not sure why they need to lock it in the first place though
High schools in my area have been locking bathrooms and removing doors for decades. Any other public place would be fined into oblivion, but they get away with it
This started happening in my high school a few years ago, Everyone seems to think that they did it to make it easier to catch people doing weed by closing half of the bathrooms at any given time. It's super annoying because the bathroom closest to my classes are always the ones to be locked for some reason so I have to walk across the entire school (the school is really big) to get to an open bathroom and when I do get there it's usually so dirty and crowded that it's almost unusable.
Sadly in 20-30 years climate change will be in full swing with natural disasters on the weekly and crop failure to boot, to say nothing of desertification and water shortages. Kids will have much bigger problems than school shooters.
That's when you familiarize yourself with the locations of the teachers' lounges / bathrooms. When the need strikes you march in like you own the place and declare that they can either let you piss in the toilet or you're going on their crappy industrial couch with its 1970s cigarette burns.
