Excellent analysis! The historical themes repeat and the calcified ruling class is so isolated from the common citizens that they don’t see the coming revolution and civil war! THERE IS NO VESPASIAN WAITING IN THE WINGS TO SAVE THE US!
We are living in Weimar America — and Democrats are ignoring the warnings of their party’s most popular president. rollingstone.com/politics/po…

You give a kid a detention. They get pissed at you. They don't show up for it, so you remind them again and notify their parent it's been rescheduled. They get even more mad at you for "not getting over it". They skip it again, so you write the admin referral and they now think you are out to get them forever

A public high school was considering introducing a policy that would permanently suspend students caught stealing food from the cafeteria.
During a staff meeting, one teacher challenged the proposal.
Teacher: “Before we decide how severely to punish these students, can we ask why some of them are stealing food in the first place?”
Principal: “Stealing is stealing. We cannot allow students to believe there are no consequences.”
Teacher: “I agree that stealing is wrong. But last week, I found a fifteen-year-old boy hiding sandwiches in his backpack. He wasn’t taking them home to sell. He was taking them to his younger siblings, who had been surviving on one meal a day since their father was hospitalized.”
The room fell silent.

The fact that so many people view silence in the classroom as "impossible" says a lot about how far we’ve drifted from the basic conditions needed for learning.

Students who can't solve math problems - with pencil and paper and on their own - aren't learning math.
They're just learning 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 math.

On 60 Minutes recently, Trump told the interviewer that everyone's net worth went up under him and if it didn't, it's basically their fault for not buying stock.
Do you understand yet that this mofo is literally telling you all to "Eat cake"?

The “Democratic” party is going to install two corrupt leaders that have a lower approval rating than Trump. Stop pretending we live in a democracy. We live under a dictatorship where both parties serve capital and war.

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders will not support Chuck Schumer for Senate Majority leader.
“This election was about change. People want new leadership here in the Senate.”
Bernie missed the best opportunity to start a new party or grow the Green party after the DNC did him dirty in 2016.
Good thing the second best time to start a new working class party is right now. Billionaires have two parties that serve their interests. It’s about damn time that the people have one!

You can’t become a skilled classroom manager just by reading about it or thinking it through.
Nah, bruh.
You build those skills by standing in front of 30 teenagers, period after period, five days a week.
You adjust, experiment, fail, try again, fail again, lose some hair, stare at the ceiling in exhaustion, question every career decision you’ve ever made, then try once again.
That’s how you learn how to manage a classroom.

IN 10 years of doing this, I have not seen a single person develop Type 2 Diabetes while eating only beef, butter, bacon and eggs.
It's almost like carbs are required for T2D to develop... – at Tennessee, USA

The 4th teacher across the hall had my class the year after me. He used to tell me that he tried to review concepts that he knew were covered in 3rd grade, and the kids would tell me "we never learned that" so often he would have to check with me. The audacity of these kids lol

Pastor: I saw ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic. I said to this ICE agent, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The agent got in my face, pointed a gun at me, and said, 'Are you afraid now?' To which I said, 'I am not afraid.'

Coworker: All those eggs and butter are gonna send your cholesterol through the roof.
Me: Cholesterol in food generally has no appreciable effect on blood cholesterol.
Coworker: Then why’s there a daily limit on the nutrition label?
Me: Because the FDA still uses a 300 mg daily cap and to be fair, they probably still use fax machines and floppy disks.
Coworker: What about the American Heart Association?
Me: The AHA says the cholesterol in food is no longer a primary target. That's saying a lot since the AHA is one of the most financially captured agencies in healthcare. The feds even stopped pushing a cap on consumed cholesterol back in 2015.
Coworker: Well I think I'm going to go with what the back of the package tells me. They aren't allowed to lie or mislead us.
Me: Then tell me how a Tic Tac can be roughly 95% sugar while the back of the package says it contains zero sugar?

Crowned, not coronated. Please. "Coronated" came into use when Cruella stole the primary from Sanders.
