Despite the Onion offering a deal that the families were happy with.
It’s almost as if the court system in the US has a ton of judges who rule on their political views, not the spirit or letter of the law.
I had heard about a few of those things through the Behind the Bastards episode, but your breakdown is spectacular. I’d been looking for the evidence of his shit with the 19 year old for a while - it seems like it’s been really suppressed. Thanks for the disciplinary file, that’s going in a few places.
I loathe the man. I think he normalized a lot of the fucked up shit I experienced in “therapy” as a teenager - the idea that it’s supposed to make you “normal,” that you just need to be berated into toughening up. That type of outdoor program (I did end up in a hellish “partial inpatient” program) was always a threat growing up and I internalized a lot of the “you are a bad kid” when I was a straight edge kid with good grades, just fucking neurodiverse!
I lay a lot of the blame at the feet of fuckers like Dr Phil. So much of the philosophy of mental health treatment is about forcing you to be acceptable to others, not about helping you heal.
The Pleiades were pretty important for ancient astronomy - they marked the equinox about 4000 years ago, around the time many civilizations were developing.
Dang! If I still talked to my parents I’d have just found the perfect Christmas present!
Plus people who torture foster kids (and have DHS cover for them - the worker that tried to intervene was fired!) This cumstain did lose her license at least.
It sucks ass for those of us that are trapped here. It’s a battle that cost me my marriage, my mental health, everything. I’ve had so many friends and people I respect tap out. I had hope that if Kamala won there might be federal intervention - perhaps in education and foster care (especially kids who need psychiatric care/have disabilities, Jesus Christ is it an institution dedicated to sacrificing children to Moloch) - but nothing is probably ever going to change.
It’s bad. One of the biggest “districts” in the state is Epic Charter Schools, a virtual school/state embezzlement scam (during COVID, the “learning funds” were buying TV’s and Christmas trees). Teachers there teach all subjects, all grades, so the same person teaching your kid Algebra 2 is teaching kindergarteners how to read.
The school only drops you if you don’t log in for 14 days. So a lot of kids will log in once or twice a week, maybe submit a couple of AI generated essays, and then spend the rest of the day playing video games and watching Netflix. These kids are functionally illiterate. I’m not even talking about the fact that our country decided to stop teaching phonics which has fucked up literacy everywhere, but more high schoolers who cannot read a paragraph or write a complete sentence. I taught a sophomore what Christianity was (not like indoctrination, but more that religion existed as a concept.)
If you can get those football championships, it’s a-okay to show kids what “a real man’s dick looks like.” (this guy STILL has his teaching license)
I have some very inside baseball about systemic cover-ups at different schools.
The “big beautiful bill” seemed to have provisions along those lines. The fuckers worship AI.
Yeah this is fake af lol.
I’ve had shit principals; this would be immediate local news + time for unemployment.
It’s just funny, and inspiring as I despair at the fact that I might actually have to face a year of this to eat lol
The more I look at it, the more I feel like my brain is being hacked.
This isn’t NASA, it’s a Japanese research team.
But I like the backronym style, especially when it makes it easier to explain to the general public.
