It also hurts a little to wonder what the rest of their day is like, since this quote clearly implies that they take classes where one doesn't need to know what they're doing, or in my case classes where they don't have to think

Now that I know better, I choose to not repeat those antisemitic stories. When someone is kind enough to point out that we're getting the story wrong, it's worth hearing them out so we don't unintentionally further the spread of bigotry

Hi, I'm a Christian and I just want to ask you to take a minute to reflect here. We were raised not knowing that a bunch of church lessons were actually antisemitic stuff that has lingered in Christianity for centuries. Such as the historically inaccurate framing of money lenders...

Surely this time Lucy won't pull the football away

But what does it say about this whole system when we can just click some buttons to create a fictional recommendation as an actual means of determining who is accepted to colleges? Nothing good will come of this.

I'm hoping that my insistence on writing letters about people I know by using my own words will end up as a positive for them ("wow, the teacher seems to have actually written this himself, they must be great!")

I was curious about what kind of crap the rec letter generator would spit out so I asked it to make one (which I did *not* submit) and it basically made the student out to be greater than Einstein and Gandhi, and hallucinated a project that never happened

Maybe Rob Schneider is a 1000 year old vampire?
(No, I still wouldn't watch that movie even if you riffed it.)

I use "radial" to define an axis, and I try to avoid saying "centripetal" because of the historical baggage that makes folks think it's a new force to draw on diagrams. For AP, I will use both terms to describe acceleration but not force.

But also good luck in game 5

I wouldn't drink it at any temperature, but to each their own

Thank you!

I appreciate the effort to help

Does the roller coaster not do that anymore?

The "things implode" I was referring to was political choices by our government, not infection rates. I'm aware of high infection rates

My employer has a flu/Covid shot clinic at work next week, holding out hope that things don't implode in OH within the next week.
I'm glad to hear the 11 yo was easy; I've been worried about being able to get my kids' shots
