Mark Hamill sucks and is wrong again. Should be a required reading list.

Aren't 99% of these written "pre-wokeness" ?

We've just narrowly escaped from the interminable period where everyone analyzed their political opponents in terms of Hogwarts villains, we absolutely do not need to require anyone to read the Harry Potter books.

Not true, my sons are much whiter. I have the 23 & Me report to prove it.

Whiteness is a spiritual failing, not a number on a report.

Yeah but you're in here doing race science, so that has to count for something.

Apologies for posting a yahoo link.

https://news.yahoo.com/texas-teacher-ad ... 18062.html

Don't make me tap the chart showing SAT scores by major. education majors and especially early childhood education majors do not score well. Expecting them to navigate stuff like this that was invented on Tumblr is insane. Corral this shit in the opt out portion of sex ed or don't do it at all.

“We're not gonna call them that," the teacher is heard saying in the video. "We're gonna call them MAPs, minor attracted persons. So don't judge people just because they wanna have sex with a 5-year-old."
Queue the “it’s not happening”… “it is but it’s rare”…. meme

Bad advice.

Take that sweet Calc score and get free tuition someplace and you'll actually get college credit for that sweet score. Win/win.

I struggle to understand how a public health association chartered with caring about the well being of children thinks it's better to have head lice spreading in a classroom (and beyond) than have once kid experience the stress of having to stay home and watch TV for two days.

Maybe they’re referring to parental stress because they can’t send their kid to daycare.

All the more reason not to let it spread.
