I’m a teacher, and this is all very good advice. One thing for parents to keep in mind. Students are very good at not getting caught when it comes to bullying. They choose hard to monitor places like bathrooms and now social media/text messaging.

I dunno. My cat is pretty big.

Part of the success of the Republican party is that they get voters to show up at mid-terms, and they tend to value non-Presidential races more than Democrats.

Sharing genuine stories like this in which you balance your love for your family and your deep concern about their change for the worse and their current actions is a great place to start. Treating people as human beings, and showing concern for them would go a long way.

Not sure I want to run the math since the result is what it is at this point. The question then becomes, would giving Hillary 11% of Johnson’s votes change the outcome in a meaningful way? Simple way is to look at close states and give her a tenth of Johnson’s votes. Does she make up the gap?

I forget, was Washington a Democrat or a Republican?

Probably not much if you had been an All-American the two years prior, setting high school records for 3PM.

I blame it on the fact that they both are dependent on a high ISO game. Should have moved the ball around more.

Trade Durant to the Lakers for Magic? What kind of idiot are you!? The cap numbers would never work.

I think its a lack of faith in most football players/celebrities, not a lack of faith in humanity.

It was also the annual reminder that the Spurs are always really good, and usually overlooked.

Worked at Wal-Mart as a cashier in college. You stop caring after the first day. Except for the dude who bought the biggest box of condoms on sale and the biggest box of diapers, and nothing else. But I kept it professional. The Wal-Mart way.

Got to love all the articles on being good journalists this site pumps out every time they are criticized, and now when it’s convenient for you and your goals, an article undermining one of the primary pillars of good journalism.

Not to mention by far the most competent Player’s Union leadership.

It’s definitely sharing highlights on social media. Absolutely not the brain damage, domestic violence, or arbitrary discipline based primarily on protecting the brand.

I didn’t cry from laughter, but I did laugh my butt off and felt like a little kid through the whole movie. I don’t know how “funny” it is, but it sure was delightful, and I say that not really being a huge Wes Anderson fan.

Tree of Life capture growing up in a home with a very charismatic but temperamental father better than any art I have every experienced.
