I truly think the future in education will be books and in person tutoring- but the poor will be on Chromebooks, with ai marking and virtual tutors

Parents & teachers should know that I-Ready lessons are NOT mandated, no matter what your principal may be telling you. And there is NO independent research to support the educational value of this app.

It would cost $30 billion to end homelessness in the USA.

Children and teachers kidnapped in #Nigeria. Prayers, letters, phone calls to officials, corporate in Nigeria and your home nation needed as witness, and to encourage a peaceful outcome. It has been two weeks. Praying for an end to poverty, military industrial economy, injustice.

Eh. I think it’s just people dooming about everything all the time. A lot of people do have skills but have gotten so demoralized it’s like what’s the point

Those survivors, who supposedly failed to "cease all combat activities" by trying to radio for help while clinging to flaming wreckage after their boat suddenly exploded for reasons completely unknown to them, died having no idea they were ever in "combat" with the US Navy at all.

At this stage this is just an excuse for a bunch of men to manhandle women. I’m sorry but this is a sexual pervert’s wet dream and I bet this demographic will be signing up in droves just to get off legally.

ha yeah

Pope Leo: “The Middle East needs new approaches, in order to reject the mindset of revenge and violence, to overcome political, social and religious divisions, and to open new chapters in the name of reconciliation and peace.”

Agonizing for Ukrainians to process their aspirations were exploited by NATO. (I’m antiwar, deplore what Putin has done, pro-democracy and self-determination.) Politicians switch loyalties e.g. Carney-Smith energy deal is “focusing on we can control” What happened to commitments to reduce carbon?

Who could’ve have predicted? Anyone. Anyone paying attention.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

The RCC sells belonging. That's a kind of intellectual property theft and appropriation of what is rightly a gift of the Holy Spirit. Exclusion is used to protect their bottom line/control the spiritually hungry. I believe course correcting this is what Jesus, V2, the Synod spirit is doing now.

When I say Catholic is akin to WWII Nazis, I'm specifically talking about deference to totalitarian power, bystander syndrome in the face of atrocities & abuses of power by their own leadership, homophobia, tribalism, scapegoating and violence towards out-groups, cleansing out of "undesirables".

I searched for one quote on peace & justice and was rewarded with several. Sharing in case anyone else understands that clothing your🔥❤️‍🔥spirit in the lexicon of non-violence helps you live to fight another day in this age of censorship/thought crime.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZmv... One thing I like about the Chinese is that when people in positions of responsibility fail, they are immediately held accountable. Japanese, too. Makes me wonder if collectivist societies do accountability better.

Experts warn of ‘global crisis’ as number of women in prison nears one million

People see what is happening elsewhere. In the US, winner take all voting has pushed polarization to dangerous levels. British Columbians do not want to go down that road. Seventy nine percent say legislators should act to reduce division. 8/10

Support crosses party lines: 78 percent of BC NDP voters, 73 percent of Conservatives, and 82 percent of Greens back proportional representation. 5/10

Big news in British Columbia! The all party Democratic and Electoral Reform Committee has recommended a Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform after months of hearings. 1/10

www.military.com/daily-news/2... Excellent adherence to stated value of (1) freedom of expression and (2) the primacy of loyalty to the Constitution:

This is Peterborough, Ontario. This is how the "entrenched conservative enclave" control women and "the lower classes". (Read the comments on this post, too.)

"An unpiloted Chinese spacecraft launched late Monday and linked up with the country’s Tiangong space station a few hours later, providing a lifeboat for three astronauts stuck in orbit without a safe ride home." 😮😍🤌🙌👏

Pulling money out of education gets you this.

And shout out to all who are digging deep to protect their country from those who would abuse it.

Can we please talk about the Game of Thrones between GOP tech oligarchs vs DEM Wall Street oligarchs, the wealth gap? Having just Two Parties ~ thanks to the medieval First Past The Post electoral system ~ has lead to polarization. We need PR in Canada, US & UK www.fairvote.ca/04/09/2022/e...

Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another (Zechariah 7:9-10). #PrayForAmerica

A lot of so-called drudge jobs involve exercise, social interaction, sense of achievement. For people who're injured, disabled, taking time off, laid off, raising family, older - these jobs are great UBI is a foundation to keep people housed, fed, healthy It's a kind of corporate welfare, too

Bonjour à tous, bonne journée à vous...🙏

Another destructive solar project approved in n CA -- “There's nothing environmentally friendly about cutting down 4,000 oak trees, the most ecologically valuable native tree in all of North America. Over 2,000 other species depend on them." 🌎 www.capradio.org/articles/202...

Too good not to share.

"Don't yield to those who will have you believe that it makes sense to live a life against others or without others, against peoples or without them. Those who claim this pretend to be strong, but they are weak. They may seem wise, but they are mad." #PopeFrancis #Hope

Something that must change in Democratic politics is the belief that democracy is “drama.” Primaries and challenging leadership aren’t “drama,” it’s democracy. Hesitation to participate in democracy only leads to an erosion of it.

Pope Leo at Jubilee Audience: Dorothy Day understood that for too many the dream was a nightmare, and that as a Christian she had to involve herself with workers, with migrants, with those cast aside by an economy that kills." www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news...

These are used locally too. Some towns and counties are shutting them off. www.columbian.com/news/2025/no...

The U.S. Border Patrol is quietly operating a nationwide monitoring program that tracks the movements of millions of American drivers, far beyond the border itself. This “predictive intelligence” system uses a vast network of license-plate-scanning cameras positioned across the country.
