That has got to be just about the dumbest review(and hey, I’ve read them all...) I’ve ever read. To suggest that Iron Man and Robert Downey Jr. have held up the Marvel Universe all by themselves is so ludicrous, negating the entirety of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee’s oeuvre... well, one could only deduce that you’ve never…

I will never look at this movie the same again.

I know. My (former) Governor did everything he could to demonize teachers and teachers unions for many years before DeVos. That is why I said DeVos and various governors.

I would rather listen to a million southerners discuss hockey than listen to a single person from New England do anything except drown themselves.

You are 100% right and if I could go back and amend the comment (or delete it altogether) I would. It was not my intent to gloss over or make it seem like this is a new thing. To many Americans it is not and I wish I had worded my comment better. I apologize.

You’re correct and if I could amend my original comment, I would. We have always been a hateful, shithole of a country. We just get to see it beamed into our brains 24/7 now.

I’ll be honest, if I could use my masters in education and my girlfriend and her daughter wanted to go, I would leave tomorrow. I’m not too proud to hop the fuck off a sinking ship.

Keep in mind in your analogy, we have known that this old bus is broken and needs repairs for decades and we just ignored it and blamed it breaking down on everything we could but ourselves.

I am switching positions, but staying in my field. I love doing it and am good at it. Just because someone experiences burnout does not mean they absolutely need to leave their profession.

I stand in solidarity and if my union asked us to walk out, I would be the first in line. The state of education (and the way teachers are treated) in this country under Betsy Devos and various republican governors should be considered a criminal act.

My issue is that so much of our underlying structural and societal issues have been so greatly exposed for what they are and we are talking about trying to undo hundreds of years of ignorance and racism when a massive swath of our country legitimately thinks there is nothing wrong. We are never going to reach the…

I have no clue why but I have cut down on my drinking in the past few years, sticking pretty much only to wine on the weekends. I need to get back to some hardcore liver killing.

This is going to sound defeatist as hell, but I really have no faith there is any coming back from this. We have opened a pandora’s box of normalized hate that now has the complicit support of some of the most powerful people in the world.

Thanks. I’ve been working with little kids for a few years now, but I always knew that I wanted to be in high school, so that is where I am going. Same district, same SES, just older kids.

Holy shit, you’re a Cubs fan too! Are we long lost brothers?

I have not listened to this, but it is going to the top of my list! Thanks!

In my job, I see children who are the victims of abuse and neglect on a daily basis. Through this work I have lost all faith in CPS and our other systems setup to protect them. To say it has had a negative impact on me physically and emotionally would be an understatement. My eye pretty much always twitches now due to…

Nah, conservatives like feigning outrage in the name of securing votes, donations, or bribes. They don’t have any actual principles. My assumption is that not a single person from the video game industry is paying this guy a dime, while rich parents of asshole kids addicted to Overwatch loot boxes are, so he sees…

People like him are threatened by book learning. I wouldn’t be too concerned. He’ll accidentally drink a bottle of bleach one day (mistaking it for a can of Natural Ice) and we won’t have to worry about him anymore.

The best part is how the ESA in their statement seems to think that they will ever be able to change the mind of Senator Hawley with anything other than a check to his campaign. Yeah guys, you’re just gonna come swooping in with facts and a republican is going to change his mind. What world are you on?
