As a teacher of English, I can definitively state that yes, this is exactly what happened. Particularly, the curse words. ◡̈

The Harvard researcher points to the rise of social media and the decline of test-based accountability. Neither hypothesis has been proven, however.

This is how U.S. media covers/normalizes/enables him and his corruption and criminal actions.

It’s not that the president has some mysterious ability to “do whatever he wants” It’s that Senators are choosing not to stop him, even though they could

An incredible sadness I've always had is knowing or feeling that the society I wish to live in.. The Star Trek one basically.. doesn't exist yet and probably won't anytime soon.. I'm a bit thankful that Star Trek comes close to giving me the right shorthand to describe it though.

If you're opposed to this explain why.

the answer to the "is e-biking really biking?" debate is "who cares"

What is it with the confederate states that they must always rely on White Supremacy to make it in this world ⁉️

We've normalized working people living out of their cars because we can't normalize taxing billionaires.

"Revolt Against the Girl Bosses Has Finally Come" Excellent and scary look at women entrepreneurs touting AI. Hope it's not behind a pay wall. (NYT seems not to support alt text, either) www.nytimes.com/2026/05/15/o...

You’re telling me a country fried this steak?

We don’t let my kids play video games online, and my 14 yo son begged me to. Told him no, but why not invite his friends over, they can play switch and have pizza or totinos. They’ve done this twice and in two weeks are coming over to watch a scary movie. Apparently we are now the coolest parents.

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

Planning is easy. Vulnerables first, then bicycles, then public transportation, then cars. In exactly that order. This shouldn´t be a "radical approach"; but international standard. And the point I consider most important: Bike lanes don’t cause traffic problems. Cars cause traffic problems.

Whoever told all these recipe websites that they need to repeat themselves 5,000 times on every recipe page and bury the actual recipe itself 3/4 of the way down, but not quite at the very bottom, needs to be dealt with.

PGA took a step back from lardass after Jan 6th, felt lardass would hurt the brand. After the disaster this past weekend at Doral, PGA may need to revisit their original decision.

Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.

Very Well Said….: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” - Theodore Roosevelt

Christian Nationalism disregards legitimate religious freedom including atheism while promoting isolationism & hatred of “the other” in a mockery of Christianity and moral decency. A just and democratic society cannot be rooted in forced conformity, religion or systemic political hatred -Bald Wally

Posting, again, for the record that political violence is wrong, dangerous, and not a good strategy for change. Period.

Watch "Interstellar" and "Elysium" to see our two nearest futures scarily depicted.

Yes! Young Israelis burning their draft papers.... War crimes can't be plastered over with religion of any sort.

In case you're wondering, my recipe for a Good Bluesky Experience here at the three year mark: 1. Decide not to be a dick 2. "Don't engage, just block" for trolls/bots/chuds 3. Mute stressful nouns 4. Follow super cool people of all sorts 5. Choose to have fun over "engagement" 6. Pictures of cats!

Seems both were good at making women disappear?
