Hi I’ve worked in education for the past 15 years and I agree with this take.
There isn't a single problem "solved" by edtech that couldn't be fixed with smaller classes led by well-paid teachers given real academic freedom

A huge night for Democrats:
—They flip Miami's mayorship.
—They flip a state House district in Georgia that had voted Trump by 13%.
—They keep Albuquerque's mayorship, while the liberal faction flips city council.
—And they get big overperformances (+18 & +22) in 2 Florida specials.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

A personal favorite from the (first) print era, still on my dad’s fridge, still evergreen:
“Study finds 30% of people not actually entitled to their own opinion.”
“Study finds 30% of people not actually entitled to their own opinion.”

This whole thread illustrates the absurdity of the current book banning craze, but this in particular really chaps my ass, as they say (sorry, couldn’t help it). These people are anti-knowledge, and they want everyone’s kids to be similarly ignorant/misinformed, especially about sex.
If your government believes that a person’s (let alone a unicorn’s) bootie is an organ of reproduction, then maybe it’s time to reexamine what passes for sexual education. 3/

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

My first career was in the arts, and I was pretty good (consistently got work), but I had to pivot to something that offered real financial independence (and healthcare). So now I’m a librarian. Use your library, don’t steal from artists man, that’s not leftist, that’s entitled bullshit.
Publishers and corporations can be exploitative, absolutely; IP law is objectionable on several fundamental grounds, fully agree; a system of universal basic income would be better for artists, I'm on board - but until those changes are in place we're talking about stealing

We want the library to be able to say, "Because we provide a valuable service used by many people!"

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
