My Catholic high school is having an indoor graduation ceremony tomorrow. Read more

And that’s the solution. The people I know most concerned about sending their kids back to school need childcare more than anything else. Like yeah there’s a bunch that just don’t want their kids home, but there’s no reason they couldn’t be home since there’s a parent there. Read more

Why must so many people be both selfish and stupid (or at least willfully ignorant). Read more

Ugh, I’m so sorry. Both for what you’re going through as a teacher and for the fact that you work with clueless white people who are being insensitive. Read more

Yep; you are right. The penalty for stupidity shouldn’t be death, but Nature is not sentimental. We are seeing Darwinism at work; Nature is selecting for intelligence and altruism at this point. It remains to be seen whether those are heritable traits.

White people love grabbing other people’s stuff! It’s not derailing the conversation to suggest they find their own way to express concerns without diminishing the very important point of another group. It shouldn’t be that hard. #protectteachers,  #teachsafe, #takecareofteachers 

My neighbor teaches high school, and he’s worried, since the district in which he teaches is insisting on on-the-ground instruction, period. Since the district also provides laptops and free internet to its students, this seems monumentally stupid. But...

I’m betting Clarence Thomas.

Im angry. This man bought into the racist lie of the GOP. Shucked and jived for their minions. Believed their lies that the morbidity of the virus was overblown. And he died for it. Who knows how many other people he endangered. Its so sick and sad.

And he caught it by attending a Trump rally. Read more

I’m getting more of a push-her-down-the-stairs-and-hope-for-the-best vibe from him.

He has, “hates uppity women” written all over him. I see he supports stripping children from parents, putting the children in cages, and losing them. Such a moral crusader. Racist, grandstander, ladder climber. Totally on board with leeching on Cheetos ass. I wonder what his religion is? He sure as hell doesn’t follow… Read more

He just looks like a guy that has paid for a girfriend’s abortion and didn’t go with her or support her in any way.  Probably sent a text saying: “report back”

I like this guy! Oh don’t get me wrong. He’s a total asshole, but at least he’s transparent and unwaivering. Read more

I saw an interesting thread on Twitter last month discussing how if Gamer Gate had been taken seriously by Facebook & Twitter, we could’ve avoided a lot of young men being influenced by incel, red pill, & Men Go Their Own Way bullshit. The overlap between the alt-right & these groups is close to being a circle. I… Read more

Guarantee he’s orchestrated at least one abortion for a former girlfriend or current mistress. I was going to say paid for, but no... he was probably just owed a favor or something shadowy. 

I keep reading this as "floss or dance" & it's making me laugh. 

Any noun that’s unnaturally converted into a verb, usually in business contexts. Not too long ago, I did a project for one whose website mentioned the address where the employees were “officing.” Read more

“Organic” when it doesn’t apply to food or is not used in a scientific context. “It came from an organic place” or “it arose organically”, like that sounds fancier than using “natural” or something 🙄. Actors do this ALL the time in interviews, it’s like their publicists all circulated the same memo.
