Child welfare and protection are crucial in American social work, but the emphasis on foster care is often exaggerated. Many believe children from troubled homes mainly end up in foster care, which is not typically the case. Learn more: www.socialworkers.org/News/Social-...

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

This is so alarming.
The Department of Education told schools to stop DEI efforts or risk losing federal dollars. The president of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation warns it won't be quick and easy.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank.
I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history.
Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Banned/challenged books are often difficult reads with jarring content, but we can't shield ourselves nor our children from the realities of the world forever - it's better to build empathy and understanding through books, especially by reading books by/about marginalized people.

Former Christian, now some combination of atheist, pagan, agnostic, here. This political/religious situation is baffling to me. Is it possible for them to follow the anti-Christ whole heartedly and not know what he looks like to the rest of us who read that part?

Many readings of Cassandra focus on the curse & ignore how & why it was cast: She refused to fuck a God who retaliated by using his power to cloud minds against her.
Rather than a metaphor of society ignoring warnings, it's the powerful malicously supressing wisdom, particularly from women.
