I saw this, laughed, changed screens and now I can't find it again or I would credit it fully: Someone described Kid Rock, who was apparently attempting to opine on something tonight, as being "the human equivalent of an above-ground pool."

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

I’m not trying to give @pbs.org ideas for raising money—but I am. I would buy women’s fit T-shirts of all my favorite childhood shows. Reading rainbow, 321 contact, square one, zoobiliee zoo. I feel like two generations will run to donate even more money for shirts with Levar Burton on them…
