Maybe don't imply people are "lazy" for needing to stay safe in a pandemic. Some people are high risk and not that many places offer curbside

 

how is Young Sheldon essential

 

I didn't think Young Sheldon lasted more than a season, wow

 

This will probably be the Internet's largest impact on society

 

I imagine he was referring to people who just choose to do doordash simply for convenience and nothing else, which I guarantee you many people are doing and it isn’t helpful to the businesses. Because yes people who go shop at Walmart but then get their food delivered via doordash are definitely people I would like to call lazy

 

'Black Panther' Star Letitia Wright Responds After Anti-Vax Video Post - Variety

Aw man, I missed this.

"Just asking questions, thinking for yourself"

 

Just. Asking. Questions.

 

Maybe she should ask questions about her anti-vax stances.

 

Boyle’s argument makes too much sense, has any of the senators pulling been pushed at all on this? Or do they just refuse real interviews?

 

If you're contesting an election you were seated in, you should resign to prove you mean it

 

Pelosi can always try to refuse to seat them. But she won’t. No consequences, ever.

 

Part of a response from a 9th grade student to the writing portion of our test, responding to the question "Which party does a better job helping struggling Americans" where their answer was just supposed to be based off a simple one page reading that laid out the basic beliefs of both parties on how we should help people (government intervention vs. trickle down economics):

Thought everyone here would appreciate this lol. The rest of it just lays out the differences between the parties on a bunch of issues, and it's supposed to just be a simple paragraph with a rubic that his writing definitely doesn't match up with haha.

 

Did you give him an automatic 100 for that?

 

I probably gave him more points than I should have based on the rubric lol. Part of the grade is actually based on writing skill and how tightly focused it is and etc.

 

Sounds like you're indoctrinating these kids with a bunch of commie propaganda and I for one would have wanted to have been in this class during my high school days

 

I cannot take credit for any indoctrination, all I do in this unit is layout the basic beliefs of the parties and what the leaders and platforms say and usually they're just like "Wtf?" when they learn what Republicans want and believe lol.

Plus a lot of them are already plugged into the social issues and know the right wing is shit there thanks to social media.

 

This kid should be teaching you ;)

 

I mean some (and by some, scarily many people) would argue that teaching the actual basic beliefs as opposed to a general American Exceptionalism view of history is indoctrination, so...
