So turns out I am probably going to need a work laptop. I am however, now living in Thailand and really want to stick with familiarity and use an Australian layout keyboard. Import tax on this would be huge... So... Anyone know how to work the system to get an Aussie laptop in and NOT have to pay crazy fees on top? Ideally not a second hand one (I know could probably get one of those on forums/markets) Any @edutooters got ideas?

@DrRacheal Are you still posting here? I hope I can still message you online somehow. 🖤🖤

@WrenArcher Never thought of it like that. I think in general people hate labels on themselves but feel the need to label others. Thank you.

First day at my new teaching job. It is 45 minutes of meetings and then going shopping with all the new staff for house stuff and groceries. As I have been in Bangkok for a month, I am wondering if I can skip the shopping part as I already have the flat set up. #work

@FrayJay @gesus Ooh! Closer than I expected. I am a teacher and find it also weird that some schools and curriculums are for it and others against. I find it odd that a lot of teachers are using it to make lesson notes with actually.

@gesus I would like to know the answer to this poll (I can't vpte as it isn't my job)

I miss Zelda Breath of the Wild...

@trinsec Naww... 💚

@trinsec He is getting a lot better. TBH, I have seen worse tantrums in adults when they realise they made a mistake...

Just spent 20 minutes with my 9 y.o. trying to explain to him how important it is to say sorry to yourself and admit that a poor choice was made.

He has a tendency to blame everyone else and refuse to back down even when you (and he) knows he is wrong.
We started small, based around a decision he made in a board game ( #Munchkin). Instead of blaming another player and trying to invent a rule loophole, he just needed to say to himself, "I did not read that card properly, and I wasted it." Following up with saying to everyone else, "Whoops. I guess I misread that card!" Instead he got angry, blamed us both and rage quit the game. Sad times.

I reminded him how important it is to forgive yourself. No one is going to tease you for admitting you made a mistake. No one is going to be upset if you only realise you made a mistake *after* you lost your temper, but then apologise and admit you made a mistake.

Something he can work on, anyway.

Anyone know why my iPod Classic will only charge at a PC/Playstation or dock and not by a powerbank or plugged wall charger? #iPodClassic #iPod #charging

@jezlyn The ending to that read! 👏👏👏
