I don't think I've ever had any #highed or college class #differentiate or #scaffold anything for me. Typically, it's just here's the #lecture, the reading list, and the assignments. Figure it out. Are differentiation and scaffolding even a thing in higher education?

"Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival is a protest song that critiques the social injustice and class disparities within the Vietnam War draft system.

The Secretary of the Navy, John Phelan, went to pay his respects to the servicemembers and civilians lost in Pearl Harbor on “June 7th, 1941.”

It looks good, except Pearl Harbor happened on December 7th.

It seems Mr. Phelan skipped that part of history class.

Only the best people, right?

Important correction: this suicide hotline is specifically for trans/NB people to speak to a trans/NB hotline worker. It’s also the Canadian number. The US number they offer is 1-877-565-8860. And it is, again, not a general suicide hotline.

NEW: Autonomous weapons systems pose grave risks to human rights during both war and peacetime.

Technological advances and military investments are spurring the development of autonomous weapons systems that would operate without meaningful human control.

If you support this administration, you are a collaborator.

Historically, collaborators face a grim end.

Chanea Bond @heymrsbond.com · Apr 27

It’s pretty obvious but maybe someone needs to hear it:

If you’re still supporting this administration, you’re not seeing heaven. There are a lot of things Jesus would do, but deporting kids with cancer and toddlers isn’t a single one of those things.

🕯️

To Those Who Call Themselves Christian but Seek to Divide
and Conquer the World

My god you think
that's what love is?
Go
to your little, bitter meetings,
your callous rallies,
your palaces of gold.

You think you can choose who is beautiful?
Your country is open
to the chosen—
while somewhere, in the shadows
of your houses,
the one you believe
you are hearing
is hanging
in a crown of thorns, in agony,
burning the world with mercy,
his arms in an embrace he cannot close.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.
