What tonight means for abortion access in the last Southern state where it's fully legal cannot be overstated.
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

This is shaping up to be a spectacular night for Democrats. Still. a long way to go, but hard to find a bright spot the GOP can count on at this moment.

First evening service after dark of the season followed by toasted muffins at home. #TinyJoys
but that they have not been caught by the authorities and arrested, after six incidents(!), speaks to incompetence and a conspiracy behind the scenes between rich folks and the cops. It is the rich who most despise these new developments.
Ok, this is the craziest thing happening in Edmonton right now. It is not so surprising that we have an unhinged arsonist targetting the new, smaller developments in mature neighborhoods, 1/2

I wish more was #sexigesimal; I guess this is a plea to return to #Imperial measures! If there were a single base system, it would aid learning and cognition, and the time-based, #Babylonian system base-60 would make everyone better at #math. And I certainly don't want a one hundred second minute!
This Whiteness of the Whale chapter (in the 40s of the book) is the thing people most often point to in efforts to place Moby Dick beyond the pale and *cancel* it. The chapter is shocking and racist, but I'm afraid those are hardly reasons not to read a book if one is studying literature.
It was the whiteness of the whale that above all things appalled me.

You utilized the artful wisdom and teachings of Teacha to teach a teacher about the highly influential culture of hip hop. Big ups, skeematic.

Fun (or not) fact, in the 90s a young teen skeematic who lived in rural AB, Canada had wanted applying to the Temple of Hip-Hop. I didn't end up applying, but KRS-One teaches through his music and I was able to get a good grade in college proving to an old white teacher that hip hop is a culture.
