I feel like you need to know who you're following here. Yes, I do some amazingly cool shit in L&D, and will talk about it here.
However, I am also a human being who wants to be my full self here. With that, you should know a few things about me.

It’s been said that everyone should work a service job for a year after high school, and I think that’s true but I think it should be a five-year plan including…
- living in another country for a year
- caring for the elderly for a year
- teaching for a year
- surviving as an artist for a year

Black people have been asking this question for a very long time.
Do you really have any rights if they are openly saying they will just make up reasons to detain you?
Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.
As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

We don't have the talent! Our nation has let its education system be defunded a little bit more each budget cycle for the past 40 years.

Imagine being a political party and not immediately getting on every outlet possible to scream about how the opposition party just got a show with 1.6 million viewers canceled because a president with a 30% approval rating didn't like it.

Well, that was a new one - I wrote overdue and spell check changed it to ovaries. That would have been a really F'd up business email.

No. F#ck heroic. Don't romanticize this. We allow our kids to be killed because our country values the 2nd amendment more than a life itself.
Two children were killed, and 18 children between the ages 6 and 15 were injured by a shooter. Middle schoolers acted heroically to protect others, a parent said.
Middle schoolers are lauded for protecting younger kids during church shooting

So the freshman has debilitating social anxiety, to the point she had to do all of 8th grade online last year.
We thought things had gotten better with medication and some therapy.
Day 2 of high school in a new state just showed us how deluded us parents were.

“This isn’t a coincidence. It’s the result of federal policy choices — most immediately, sweeping job cuts across public-sector agencies where Black women have long held the strongest foothold in middle-class employment.”
300,000 Black women have left the labor force in 3 months. It’s not a coincidence.
For decades, the public sector has been a lifeline for Black women shut out of economic opportunity. It’s no surprise that Trump's federal downsizing targeted them first, explains gender economist Kat...

One reason I can't get exorcised about the defunding of PBS is because it would take 4 rich Liberals 6 months to raise enough to cover the funding cut. They should do that. Yes I subscribe already but Liberal elites should fucking make themselves useful.
