I'm looking for any online courses from credible institutions to use as a reference. I've been self taught and have used many youtube tutorials that had gotten me very far but unfortunately the jobs in looking at applying to are very adamant about having some degree of formal training (which I think is a bit classist but that's a conversation for another day. You shouldn't need money to be good at art)

Do you guys know of any online classes I could take to help fill out an art resume? Unfortunately a portfolio is no longer enough...

Editing to clarify, the job has absolutely no requirements for an education degree. I am not applying for an educator role, I dont know where that confusion came from. I'm applying for a water color painter position, not applying to be a teacher in any capacity.

If there is a better sub for this question id be happy to move my post, this was just the one recommended to me.

Looking for studies on effective discipline for toddlers as well as autistic children. I'm very much of the mind set of treating autistic children the same way, just with accommodations to help but I'm curious if standard discipline (talking to and time outs) will be understood over time. I know it takes time for lessons to set in but we're trying to establish respecting others property (don't take toys that aren't yours and don't break stuff in the house).

Thank yall in advance!

Hello all, had an appointment to get my dog spayed this Friday. Didn't know she was pregnant, it was missed at her last visit a month ago, and now theres a puppy in my living room.

Trying not to panic, its been over an hour and shes completely calmed down but theres only one puppy. She is 6yo and we think we know who the dad is and hes roughly 9yo.

At what point should I be worried that one might be stuck? Or do you think the age would make it more likely there's only one? How long before I should be reasonably concerned?

Edit: forgot she's unknown breed but we roughly guess a lab mix of some kind.

Adding on: is been over 4 hours and she's still only had the one. She's completely stopped contacting, she's gotten up to get water and go potty just fine and is still nursing just the one. No signs of any distress. Going to call the vet in the morning.

Hoping it's just a really weird singleton puppy and everything is good. Was not expecting puppies in any way shape or form so that would make things a bit easier.

Final update: it was an extremely small litter of only 2 puppies! Very unlikely from what the vet said but xray shows no other puppies or placentas stuck inside her.

First puppy is here and healthy. Second puppy passed after being delivered. But mom is good! We've got the two week puppy visit scheduled now and now I get to go to work completely sleep deprived lol

Hello all! I am currently on food stamps and have my household listed as myself, my partner, and my child. We have a very close family friend who is living with us for a while and shes trying to find a job, but wants to go on unemployment to help cover her bills until she can get one.

Would her being on unemployment and using our address affect our benefits? Shebis not listed as a member of our household. We live in Texas.

Looking for some advice. My niece has hemiplagia (weakness on one side of the body) from meningitis as a newborn. She's 4 months old now and has started attempting to roll over in her sleep, however since one arm does not have the strength to keep herself up she often gets stuck in uncomfortable positions and unable to roll back.

My sister is looking at potentially swaddling her to keep her from potentially suffocating herself and I'm hoping to find any and all advice to help.

Are there any resources on safe sleep for disabled infants?

My neice suffers from hemiplagia (one side weakness) to her body after a meningitis infection as a newborn. Shes 4 months old now and is starting to flip over but due to the weakness on the right side of her body she often gets stuck in compromising positions without the ability to move herself back.

My sister is looking into a potential swaddle until muscle development can make flipping back and forth easier but I'm worried about potential risks. Do you guys have any advice?

The site itself is loading, but every video I try doesn't load or has an error. I've tried cineby .io .su and .at and they've all been the same.

Trying to see if my issue is just on my side.

Hello everyone! I'm planning on having a wedding in an outdoor area that is not traditionally used for weddings, so we'll be seeing each other before the aisle walk no matter what. I'm looking for some tips and interesting ideas for a "first look" since we'll be seeing each other regardless.

We're planning on having the wedding at a state park nature reserve and we'll be getting ready in a little rented house together on the property. Both of us are having our bridal parties (very small each) in the house with us so it'll be her and her girls and me and my girls.

Any tips for trying to figure out a first look where we actually get surprised at each other's dresses?
