I read somewhere that if you have three of something, it's a collection.
So apparently I'm collecting cancers! So far, three.
(All mostly harmless, obviously.)
Not a lot over a period of 15 years, but I bet the pace is going to pick up soon.
When I was a young child, I read HC Andersen's story of the ugly duckling.
And I waited, and waited...
Turns out that a lot of ugly ducklings are just destined to become ugly ducks!
@ITARosengren @magisteradastra @GurkOlle Skollagen borde dessutom skärpas i det här avseendet. Att jag är behörig lärare i ett ämne borde naturligtvis inte betyda att jag ska räknas som behörig när jag undervisar i ett helt annat ämne! Vi borde kräva både ämnesbehörighet och pedagogisk behörighet.
@EZulal@mrconfino I don't believe that someone can be an anti-semite privately, and still do one's job in a fair and unbiased manner. If I'm 1,70 m when I'm off work, I can't come in and suddenly be 1,85 m.
@alanthomasdoyle@TheDardanelles@jmeleemiller Such a lovely song! And this great video really makes me want to go to Newfoundland!
If I ever get the chance to dance the St. John's Waltz, I'll be sure not to miss out... Even if I have nobody to dance with.
4:51 pm in hometown
Surrounded by forest.
Next to each flag there is an oak tree.
Next to each flag there is a plate with a name, date of birth and date of death.
Soldiers.
Born in this tiny town.
Killed in this big war.
Oak field of death.
I visited it today.
No words to add.
@kvist_sara@FMannerheim@DenHarfagre@Nattmannen1 Jag har ingen statistik på hur vanligt/ovanligt det är generellt. Av de 135 7:e-klassare som jag undervisar i år har 74 stycken någon anpassning, oftast pga ADHD eller dyslexi.
@MikailPNyuksel Det heter "... att jag ska fråntas mitt medborgarskap..." eller, lite mer ålderdomligt, "...att mitt medborgarskap ska fråntas mig...".
Enklare svenska: "... att man ska ta ifrån mig mitt medborgarskap...".
Om man skriver "Å ena sidan..." bör man ha med ett "Å andra sidan...".
@theworldofmomus@Texas__Bulldog@Docstockk You seem to vacillate between 'proportionate responsibility' and that the parties should be 'equally condemned'.
Sure, the woman agreeing to become a surrogate has agency. So does a poor man selling one of his kidneys.
To me, the buyers are *more* morally reprehensible.
@maggie_by@Politics4Fun123 A little OT, but I really don't understand: Why can't people just use the pronoun 'you'? Or are we supposed to use the 'correct' pronouns when we talk about people behind their backs?
