Me, as a teacher: If I didn't genuinely care about my students, there absolutely is no amount of money that would make this job worthwhile.
Also me, at day's end before Christmas break: I will literally run a child over to get out of this building.

I'm watching a lot of 80s horror movies for spooky season. WTF is up with families kissing on the mouth? Is this some cultural thing I don't know about?

It's like a troupe of Cassandras screaming in unison at a Greek chorus, "Fucking do something!"
And the chorus is screaming back, equally in unison, "They screamed: Fucking do something!"

They are trying to force Harvard to admit more conservative students.
Pardon me, but that sounds an awful lot like DEI, only DEI for stupid people.

This is particularly obscene when you realize Republicans want to take food, shelter, healthcare, jobs, and due process from the bottom 50% of people in the US to free up cash to give the greedy, sociopaths who are the richest 0.1% in the US even more money for yachts, bonuses, and villas.

The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth.
