Whoooosh

I hear it was the South African Shitbeetle.

We homeschool in Canada and have done so long before the pandemic. Technically, what we do is distance education, as my kid has teachers, a proper curriculum, assignments, etc. She’s absolutely thrived with this, where rural public schools were a nightmare of bullying and neglect.

But here there are rules and real requirements. Based on Oliver’s video, homeschooling in the US is an utter shitshow. The anti-intellectualism in the US is incredibly bad.

How about Kanye-led?

The one good thing is that it sticks around an extraordinarily long time.

If he didn’t already have someone in the wings to replace a seriously ailing 90 year old, then I’m going to consider him incompetent.

Good. The lunatic vote will split between him and Trump.

I remember when even the far majority on the right thought Freedom Fries was a stupid thing.

ICE. We carry fire with us no matter where we go.

There’s always ‘self’.

I hope they eat well.

I don’t feel bad for deleting my account with 120,000+ karma.

This is the right way to solve paralysis, not Elon-killing-monkeys.

They imagine this place where only rich people live and work, but don’t think to the next step of who does the things that rich people don’t care to do…so they’ll bring in poor people and then eventually complain bitterly that they either can’t get what they want done at poverty wages, or that their local exclusive society is falling apart.

In short: there is no valid reason for the ultra-rich to exist. The rising tide doesn’t lift all boats: it sinks the boat that have been tethered to the sea floor.

You mean the guy who replaced the Italian Mafia in NYC with the Russian Mafia, then avoided investigation of that because of 9/11, then threw everything behind a president with very questionable connections to Russia, and took several mystery trips to Russia…might have been compromised by the Russians?

Shocked!

I have to agree. Federation only goes a little way on the path to a proper decentralized social media system. Ideally, defederation should not be possible, and rather, community subscription should be the norm without concern over what instance it exists on.

I’m not saying it should become Usenet, but it should be more similar to Usenet than it is now.
