Teachers are not having a good time
This is a really good point, but I feel like an English teacher would have written "whom I married."

What neurodiverse related annoyance have you had recently?
Just in case you want advice, I've found that using a custom launcher app solves that problem for me. I spend an hour setting up the interface exactly how I like it, then never change it again. When I get a new phone, I load the launcher settings from the last phone into the new one, and everything looks and feels exactly like I had it before.

ABC’s ‘The Rookie’ to Crossover With Dropout’s ‘Game Changer’ in March Episode
Brennan clears throat, adjusts glasses, makes prolonged eye contact with everyone in the room simultaneously
"Okay. OKAY. I have been sitting with this for six hours and I cannot physically contain it anymore.
The Thin Blue Line narrative—and I mean this with my whole cardiovascular system—is one of the most effective and insidious propaganda apparatuses in the history of American mass media. And it works because the characters are GOOD. They're charming! They're funny! They have FEELINGS and RELATIONSHIPS and they are genuinely trying to do the right thing, and that is EXACTLY how hegemony sustains itself. It doesn't show you the institution. It shows you Tim Bradford, and you love Tim Bradford, and now you have quietly absorbed an entire framework for how crime and punishment and community and safety are supposed to function in a civilized society WITHOUT EVER BEING ASKED TO CONSENT TO THAT LESSON.
And I'm—look. I'm not saying don't watch it. I watch it. I'm ON it right now. I'm saying watch it awake. Watch it with the part of your brain that remembers that the writers' room is making choices, that the network has relationships, that the genre itself has a politics that predates everyone in this room.

Perfection
If you remove the "wait"s and move "just" to between "ocean" and "visiting," it's a haiku.

Crime is Praxis
"One day you will be called on to break a big law in the name of justice and rationality. Everything will depend on it. You have to be ready. How are you going to prepare for that day when it really matters?
You have to stay ‘in shape’ so that when the big day comes you will be ready. What you need is ‘anarchist calisthenics.’ Every day or so break some trivial law that makes no sense, even if it’s only jaywalking. Use your own head to judge whether a law is just or reasonable. That way, you’ll keep trim; and when the big day comes, you’ll be ready."

Investigative Report: US military & Mass Child Rape in Afghanistan
Vice News covered this more than a decade ago in "This Is What Winning Looks Like." They literally filmed a conversation where a US soldier tried to explain to an Afghan police chief why raping children was bad. His response was "who else are we going to fuck?"

One in which he called on Americans to unite in a common purpose to combat the Covid-19 pandemic just as they came together after the 2001 attacks, and another where he drew attention not just to the victims who died on 9/11, but to all the people who died afterward as a result of the US War on Terror.

Paid. I also found it hard to believe, which is why I checked the logs, tried working with their support staff, and wrote my own program to confirm.
