I just realized I never went back and caught Iron Valiant after they fixed the event. 3 years of a perfect Mightiest Mark collection down the drain. 😭 #PokémonScarletViolet

Thank you! I should've included a link.

Wrote easily instead of easy on a skeet about being a teacher. RIP. 🤦‍♂️

I feel like I post about this every year, but one of my favorite lessons in my Civics class, is when I use @jon.gvg.io and @gvg.io's Waddle Dee Knows video to teach the kids about media literacy. #teachersky #educationsky

I tried Best Buy this time because I'm in a place I can afford to pay all at once and I wanted the mouse pad.

But apparently they don't charge you until the week of. So something I thought I budgeted for months ago just now got deducted from my account when I wasnt expecting it. (Part 2 of 2)

For all GameStop's faults I still think they're the best place to pre-order games.

I used to pre-order there because they're the only retailer that lets you pay in installments with no mandates other than a $5 deposit, and you have to pay it off before you pick it up. (Part 1 of 2)

I switched to Earl Grey tea today because I need less caffeine on my Vyvanse and I'm kind of digging it. I guess I'm British now.

My beige flag is that I'll put things on my Amazon Credit Card as a payment plan when I make an impulse purchase instead of taking the points because I'm too anxious to be accountable for it right away, then just pay it all off on my next paycheck anyway.

I still think this is just Miyamoto on his hyperfixation kick again and not related to any larger project. At least not a new game seeing as how Pikmin 4 was just 2 years ago and that took a decade.

Maybe giving Nintendo Pictures something to practice with?

The Nintendo 'Close to You' video they released yesterday was for Pikmin!

Also upon reflecting more, I believe this is officially the longest I've gone without drinking since I started again in 2020. So that's worth celebrating. 🥳

Mitchell Monroe @clockworthclone.bsky.social · 6d

Every day I go without alcohol gets both easier and more difficult. Its hard to explain.

Like I'm more and more content without alcohol, but that voice in the back of my head has more and more justification to tell me I've earned a treat.

Its sober October though. Not random sober week. 🫡

Yeah I've definitely come across funny bits from them. They just also have some that leave a sour taste in my mouth.

My wife actually works with one of them, though she's not like one of the main staples. She's just on their podcast once a month I think it is.

Bored Teachers mostly just feels like exploiting teacher's frustrations at the expense of students for cheap clicks. (3 of 3)

He used those funny bits to garner people's attention, then used his platform to advocate for the needs of both students and teachers.

And even in the funny bits, they will often call attention to needs within them. (2 of 3)

Don't really know where to post this so itll reach the right audience, but I feel like Bored Teachers is trying to capture the niche Gerry Brooks created but they miss the mark so hard.

They think its just about funny relatable teacher nuisances, but Gerry Brooks content always had layers. (1 of 3)

What's wild is I had zero context clues for what happened outside of the people who were talking about it, so I took a guess and looked up the person's profile and sure-enough lol.

But sadly I slept poorly, have stomach pain, and getting up in the pitch dark miserable rain has left me achey and irritable. So I fear that boost will just be working to get me up to normal. 😔 (Part 2 of 2)

I had this whole plan that I was going to wait until today to upgrade to my 30MG Vyvanse dose, because I have way more planning time today than any other day of the week and I wanted to use my big "day 1 boost" on it. (Part 1 of 2)

Taylor Swift's song "Father Figure" is actually about Christian Cage

Mitchell Monroe @clockworthclone.bsky.social · 10d

I'm sorry that I ever doubted @bob.thewulffden.com about how sick Neon White was.

Mitchell Monroe @clockworthclone.bsky.social · 11d

I really need someone to make a Christian Cage AMV to that new Taylor Swift song Father Figure. #AEW #LifeOfAShowgirl

Kinda kicking myself because there's no way I'm finishing Monster Hunter Stories 2 before Pokémon now, & I already own this game on Switch...but I started playing Hades on Game Pass & I'm actually digging it more this time. (So far)

I just like the resolution bump & getting the Xbox Reward Points.
