Ah yes, STEM requires critical thinking skills, so we will teach CT within the framework of stem. Except that the whole idea of CT is that you need to be able to step away from your current framework.

Same goes for the oboe.

Yeah, think of the potential for the vocational programs: β€œI started out in mortuary studies, but transferred and got an AS in Human Anatomy and Reanimation”

Idk, they’ve been creative at excavating deeper this year.

I find that it will never load the spot I picked, but if I hit the 15 seconds forward it can sort it out. Weird, can’t find x, but CAN find 15 seconds after x.

Yeah, but they’re only on the dessert menu, and many are assuming that the diner will fill-up before they get to them.

With some shows, it feels like the runners developed a season 1 arch to pitch the show and were successful. Followed by: β€œoh crap, they LIKED, and they want more? Anyone have ANY ideas?”

There it is, in a nutshell.

David Lynch in character as Gordon from Twin Peaks: The Return, saying to David Duchovny's offscreen character Denise "And when you became Denise, I told all your colleagues, those clown comics, to fix their hearts or die."

On every day, of course. But for this day especially, also of course.

Consider:

The people who though H. Clinton should be imprisoned b/c she used a private email server

... are totally cool with Trump's admin accidently sending war plans, and their locker-room self-congratulations, to a journalist during an operation.

Indeed. It’s really fascinating to see some of the huge changes, but also small features that managed to survive through the massive rewrites.

Trump/Musk threatening impeachment for any judge who won't roll over & give them unchecked power is EXACTLY what Biden & most GOOD Presidents have refused to do.

If you don't see the danger of the Executive branch assuming the power of the Judiciary & Congress, you're a fool - no matter your party.

The Dow has dropped 1300 points over the last two days as Trump defiantly plows forward with tariffs against Mexico, Canada and China β€” America's most prominent trading partners.

Came here to say this.
Also, if nothing else it eliminates that awkward, anticlimactic β€œso do you have any questions for us? … um … no?”

Getting kinda nostalgic for my high school days, when we just expected to be incinerated by the Soviets.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Elon Musk is a dick,
And he’s robbing you too.

I am late to this because of a busy week.

But the Gulf of Mexico is the "Gulf of Mexico" in 16 USC 11, 33 USC 5, 43 USC 1331, and lots of other places that no executive order changes.

When Google and other map apps say they're following "official govt sources," at best they're ill-informed.

Just another form of employment bondage: you can’t quit; not only will you lose your health insurance, now you lose your home as well.

Consider:

Trump is so "America First" that he has offshored the work of destroying the country to a South African big tech worker.

Rounding up Americans, threatening to deport Americans to foreign prisons, trying to fire Americans who are keeping the government running.

If you think this Makes America Great, you're an idiot.

If they are not β€œsubject to the jurisdiction” does that mean they cannot be charged for breaking laws?
