Maybe... Maaaaaayyyyyyybeeeee the Democrats need to nominate someone who is actually worth getting excited about instead of just being not-Trump.

It's like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.

So much for the free market, huh?

Someone told me that if I wanted to be a history teacher I should get a degree in special Ed to "make myself more marketable." It took 14 years to get out of special education and land a job teaching history

Social studies teacher here. Aside from the obvious church/state problems with this, there might be an easy way around it for teachers: put up a poster with a dollar bill on it. Less conspicuous, still follows the letter of the shitty law.

History teacher here. If this was turned in to me, rhe first thing I'd do is laugh, then have a conversation with the student. If s/he says they'd be ok with me emailing a copy of this to their parents (I'm assuming the parents speak Chinese), then I'd just give them an A for pure gall. If the kid isn't from a Chinese-speaking family, I'd probably still give him/her kudos and then make them turn in whatever they put into Google translate to begin with. But really, this is the kind of malicious compliance I wish my students had the creativity to pull off.

NATO WAS BUILT SPECIFICALLY TO OPPOSE RUSSIA, MORON!

Teacher here. I'm fucking speechless. What kind of people remove a library and claim it as a win? The only people who do that are shooting for authoritarian regimes where the people are kept stupid.

"Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day." ~Thomas Jefferson

I doubt that he is. His supporters, on the other hand...

Now, I may just be a man, but the woman's arms on that last one don't look quite right. Is someone else holding the swords for her?

Teacher here. Kids want the quick dopamine hit from their phones and their school-supplied chromebooks. They do not want to take the time to try something that might be hard, and they do not want to stretch their brains at all

History teacher here. I find it incredibly ironic that a guy whose entire livelihood depends on unpaid workers to generate profits for him while he sits on his porch drinking sweet tea comfortable desk chair describes those workers as the "landed gentry."

Feds: "We have money that you can give to families so kids can eat over the summer."

MO politicians: "That seems like it would be a lot of hard work for us, so nah."

Pizza and weed sounds like a good business model, tbh

As someone who has seen Star Wars, this is hilarious because it honestly makes a ton more sense than the shit that actually ended up on screen.

Wow. The argument against trans women in sports is already unscientific enough. Why is chess even split into gendered categories? This just makes zero sense.

There are, in fact, no products in that empty drawer. I promise I'm not hiding them from you, ma'am.

I really want to live in the technologically-advanced, socialist utopia conservatives think mainstream Democrats are trying to produce

I'm definitely making more of an effort now, but that's because of how conscious I am about the site needing user interaction.

I may not care about your search history, but I had to look at a shirtless Elon Musk without so much as a warning, so I think we might be even there.
