this may invite recrimination — or it might have done if anyone ever saw my remark, but that’s unlikely — but imo relegation wouldn’t be the absolute worst thing to happen to spurs
i’ve always enjoyed watching the championship, anyway — i like the lack of VAR and the scrappy competition

nearly every high school district in my county is facing a financial crisis currently
does this stand me in good stead?
one was a scientist & one an artist
this is one of those phrases that I’ll probably quote forever
this is why i plan my 4th quarter classes to be as fluffy as i can possibly make them — we need to ease on down the road gently on that homestretch
just a small voice piping up to let you know that as a teacher, i feel your impact upon MY thought, and thus upon my students
thanks
about par for the course for a second semester senior, no?
or do you see it causatively otherwise
listening to hegseth talk about his “warfighters” is like listening to a child who has learned a cussword that makes him feel very big, strong, and mean to use
So again moderation is turned over to an external source ( usually a woman)
While the data is corrected by an outside source ( usually someone in a heavily colonized country)
While it boils the earth
So one person can have the experience of having a digital yes man …
For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.
These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20
that said, all the students were riveted by the movie. i’d never shown it to students before — it has held a lot of power
when the foreman announced the guilty verdict, my students audibly gasped. they then said they weren’t really surprised, but narratively they were
today in one class we finished watching To Kill a Mockingbird (1962). during the scene when all the ppl are just waiting for the verdict, gathered around the courtroom in groups
kid, suddenly: huh! that’s what it was like before phones. all the people were just talking together
me: yep
kid: boring
this does me good to read
ah, Les Misérables — you do have your zingers
“A nation is illustrious, it tastes the ideal — and then it bites the filth and finds it good”

now when clumsy scams are directed my way, i can’t shake the idea that the people behind them are prisoners at a horrible forced-labor camp far away, threatened into spending hours laying honeytraps and flattering strangers
what a world
oh me too
and it’s clear which kind is more likely to be on the chopping block
reading about the horrific cuts being made in our local schools (which are in complete financial crisis) I’m also struck by how it’s usually lists of things like “all elementary school counselors, all classroom aides, all special ed co-teachers” and almost never administrative roles
add my faint praise in! i watched 😄
the most mid
damned by nothing other than faint praise
that’s interesting. the emotional tone for me is so theatrical throughout. I’ve never found it a genuinely affecting movie. I enjoy it more abstractly
I think teens can surprise one with their subtlety on many occasions, actually
my little gen alpha students do, in fact, think almost everything astonishing is ai
it’s a tiny bit crushing to me
for them the twist would be if there was no twist, i think
also, it seemed excessively obvious to them. and, aesthetics had shifted enough that i don’t think the slick leather looked as cool
this was my impression. i showed it to a high school class some years back (right after we read the allegory of the cave) and they, while appreciating the chance to watch a movie they’d heard about, were strictly meh in response
of course she did, very sensible. it looks like something that would sting you
says who?! jfc
a lustrous, dark splotched banana slug, crossing the trail
and how could i forget to mention this beauty? it’s always a good day when you cross paths with a banana slug (without stepping on her)

my dog is temperamentally a bottom, so - lots of top stumps in his world
a stump lying on the ground that might be imagined to exhibit a scary open maw if you are a dog I guess
this stump was extremely unnerving to my dog
he had to go into full skulk mode to get past it
