Sorry to say I'm going to be off-line for a while. Moving to a new home and then a little surgery, nothing to worry about, just inconvenient. Back soon and Thank You to everyone who found my ramblings worth reading.

This whole thread is exhausting. The questions vary between insulting to teachers’ professionalism, trivial, and irrelevant (but requiring a particular set of beliefs). Nothing about actual teacher qualification.
The Oklahoma Teacher Qualification Test from PragerU is finally up on their website (but you have to at least provide them fake contact info first):
"Educators who pass the test will receive an official PragerU Teacher Certificate..."

When that day finally happens just remember, he's a narcissist. They crave attention, good or bad. Admit to yourself it might be the greatest day ever for you and everyone else, dance a little happy dance in private, the go about your business while secretly laughing and enjoying 'peace at last'.

Booze Boycott Alert! Multinational company Diageo couldn't "read the room" and have decided to move bottling of the once-iconic Canadian brand, Crown Royal, to the U.S.A., putting Canadians out of work and supporting the U.S. economy. Let's make their short-sighted decision hurt!

Deeply concerned about this situation with two individuals helping to fight fires in Washington state. I’ve directed my team to get more information about what happened.

U.S. economy expanded 3.3% in Q2, with growth even stronger than initially thought
Consumer spending, which rose by 1.6% compared with an initial 1.4% estimate, helped push the number higher.

Think New Mexico isn’t fighting for patients, they’re fighting for private equity.
There’s a doctor shortage because Wall Street buys up community hospitals, guts staff, and turns ERs into cash cows. Patients wait 16 hours for care while profits soar.
Private equity is strip-mining hospitals.

Monarez is playing her weak hand perfectly, and should be a model for institutional resistance for the next four years:
1. Make them fire you
2. Don’t go along to get along
3. Don’t apologize, have confidence in your own integrity and the importance of your role
4. Always escalate the conflict

Just want to re-emphasize: Gavin Newsom can be a tool sometimes, but he's OUR tool, and he's pretty damn sharp. I LOVE how upset and ridiculous the MAGATs reaction to Newsom's trolling has been, and how affective it is. Go Newsom!!

Fancy an all-you-can-eat salmon buffet? Then head on over to Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska.
It's the salmon run season right now, and the waterfall is absolutely swarming with bears. They've all gotten so chubby from feasting.

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next.
