RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

MODERATORS
The GED is essentially a participation trophy when you compare American education globally to other developed nations.
The curriculum and difficulty of the school you went to is variable. That's why in the USA there are "good schools" and "bad schools". One of the best things to learn is how to learn and how to teach yourself. That makes the teacher's mostly irrelevant as well and is what's needed in real life because you won't have a senior huddled over you 24/7 telling you what to do in any position that pays well. That's why it pays well.
Congratulations on your GED, it unlocks many opportunities. If your career path can benefit from higher education, there are good options online today.
