I’m a mild-mannered teacher who thinks that education, the arts and good coffee are rights that should be available to everyone. He/him
Notice how they like wearing those tan Cinos?

We should start calling them the Brown Pants.

Unless he can be prosecuted at the state level. That could be interesting!

Musk isn’t immune, but he can get a pardon whenever he wants one.

This almost feels like malicious compliance. Some bureaucrat was told to send the letters to everyone else in the department, and they did exactly, and I mean exactly, as they were told. They had to send it out, but no one said it had to be legally effective.

It’s weird—a lot of the people I know who were cheering Canada’s testicular fortitude in the face of tariffs last week are now saying that Australia can’t afford a trade war and we should just roll over.

This country only seems to be tough when it’s other people making the sacrifices.

My iPhone says it’s still the Gulf of Mexico… but I’m not in the US.

This may have been pointed out already—I noticed a spelling mistake in the chart (can’t remember where, exactly!) where the word ‘acquired’ is spelt ‘aquired’.

Great chart!

I play trumpet. I get asked to come up the front all the time! 😝

That scene gave me the chills when I first saw it. I didn’t dismiss it—I wondered how long, and if it would look like that.

The answer is about twenty years, and yes.

He’s like a thirteen year old yelling at someone on Fortnite that they’re artistic and have restarted.

We know exactly what they mean, and they know we know, but it’s surprisingly hard to get anyone to actually admit it.

I’m going to have to go read them all now so I can make up my mind.

what was happening.

And then there were the worthy souls who had nothing better to do than to Reply All to every message they got with a smart arse comment about using Reply All correctly.

It was a beautiful day, and I’m so glad I got to witness it.

Half an hour later, I was getting email at a rate of more than a dozen a minute. Most of them were, ‘Why did I get this email?’ There were many requests to be removed from the mailing list (not possible—it was essentially ‘All staff’) and a few brave would trying to explain to everyone

Ooh, yeah. This happened in our state education department. Every teacher, aide, sub, admin and janitor was in the firing line. I saw what had happened and got straight onto our IT guy in the next office so he could alert someone, but it was his first day on the job and didn’t get what I meant.

Or, perhaps, an AI bot with no human oversight? It would definitely be on brand…

Men’s sizes?

He’s welcome to try wearing larger t-shirts.

To be fair, the chance of producing the next Beatles by giving four random musicians a thousand dollars each and directions to a music store is vanishingly small. You’re far more likely to end up with a bad cover of Wonderwall.
