I know that everyone has a lot to think about right now, what with the Epstein files and the possibility of a world war. Still, if you are at all interested in teaching this is a really good article

I def thought that the jerkiness was the point. Not many 90s shows featured characters that were pleasant 🤷🏽♀️
Maybe Saved by the Bell...

FFS. Are we back to "pre-emptive defensive" aggression? I remember the last time a Republican president pulled this BS
For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory.
I mean, at the least, start stockpiling nonperishables for the general strike.
So glad to see more people writing about this!
I think I read it because I loved Jane Austen. I had seen Wuthering Heights described as a gothic romance. So I think I was expecting Tim Burton (it was the 90s) I remember thinking that "This is not romantic, everyone seems to hate each other." I was possibly too young to get the point
I haven't read it since I was a teenager. It confused me at the time, I had never before read a book where ALL the characters are unpleasant.
Might be worth revisiting
IDK- The main road through my town is in need of restructuring. The proposal included bike lanes and had *ten* fewer parking spaces. Locals lost their minds, you would have thought the DOT had proposed coming to each house and slashing tires. It was truly unhinged pearl clutching over bike lanes.
Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority
I can't say how much I hope Jasmine Crockett defeats James talirico in the election. I think she is the real deal, a very genuine defender of democracy. People like her offer the greatest hope that the US will not slide further into fascism.
Dang. I teach environmental science, I wonder if there is a new Scopes trial on the horizon. 😞
Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte
We're at the point where people are terrified of both Tylenol and witches. The promise of mRNA vaccines still exists, but the research funding seems to be out 😞
I thought that Bone's prejudice was supposed to be part of the character. A provincial Earth doctor, inadequately prepared for the challenges of space medicine and grumpy about it. As the seasons progress Bones grows as a person, shedding some of his bias and widening his views.
Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves fits the bill, I think
What is wrong with 37% of the population? Do y'all think it was all the lead paint?
Oh, so now he acknowledges that it's good to fight back against authority figures who use tear gas and rubber bullets? Welcome to the resistance, Matty

And Stephan is so much creepier
Thank you. I needed to know this existed
Happy Caturday, I'm staying warm with my reading buddy/book critic Jiji
That is wonderful 😍 I am happy to hear that people have pregnancies that they enjoy. Children are precious, but I hated being pregnant and it was scary.
The only not-terrible part of pregnancy is the hope (NOT the guarantee) that you will get a baby. If you don't want a baby pregnancy is 100% terrible. Even for people who do want a baby pregnancy is a lot terrible 😔
I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down
Because from the beginning, the mission was based on cruelty.
