The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

I believe strongly people should be judged on the content of their character, their words and deeds not the color of their skin, their gender, sexuality, religion, age, nationality, disability, height, weight, etc

How can our Prime Minister say this with a straight face? He wants to meet climate targets, include Indigenous representation AND to build a PIPELINE (through BC)? Ridiculous. At least just say what it is: industry & economy over everything else (including BC’s voice).

I really, really, really 🥰 Thunderbolts. I know how cliched & unrealistic superhero movies are (esp. in our day & age - aka. we could all use real 🌎 examples more than fake), but I did ❤️ the scene where 🎶 rises up, Bucky comes in on 🏍️, w hair moving in wind & he kicks BUTT. A great moment. #marvel

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

On CNN, there was a stat that said that 57% of Americans have large bit of their wealth tied to stocks. Crazy. You can’t just be pumping money in and then pump more money in to prevent collapse, too. Because that damn will burst. When it does, it’s going to be real bad for a lot of people.
You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I don’t want 2 read anything ✍️ by 🖐️ by my sts ever again. It is really, really hard sometimes. And, yet, I HAVE to do this, because this ✍️’s more authentically theirs, more immediate assessment & I can gage the subtleties of their language/syntax. It’s really, really hard when it’s hardly legible.

The amount someone earns after completing a professional degree does not accurately portray its total value in our society.

If it was a true reflection of social worth then educators, nurses, and librarians would be paid high six figures.

Excessive grading stresses out kids and teachers, stifles innovative teaching, and fails to deliver as a true measurement of learning.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.
