even if everything they say is true about the drugs etc it's like, this logic is just whacked put nonsense. no one's getting back in a bombed pit boat going "ugh, inconvenient! I gotta keep these drugs flowing and this really sets me back!"
Q: What did you see in the second strike?

Cotton: "I saw two survivors trying to flip a boat -- loaded with drugs, bound for the United States -- back over, so they could stay in the fight."

we're coming to the end of this life simulator/ financial literacy unit I've been doing with my students (culminating in retirement plans) and a majority of students want to plan their own funerals. I told them that's too dark but they all seem to be so excited by the concept???

When it comes to describing small towns, I get "one stoplight" as a descriptor but "one-horse town"?? Most towns and cities are all zero-horse towns these days

Lasterday = a couple or few days ago
Nexterday = a couple or few days in the future

an underreported negative effect of short form video's chokehold on us all is in the classroom so many of these kids think this is the perfect opportunity to try out the bits they've been mentally rehearsing like it's call time for a tight 5 when I say "ok folks does anyone have any questions?"

sorry you're all subject to my new hyperfixation anyway did you all know OK Go has a website full of LESSON PLANS for kids to learn STEM concepts through their music videos???
I'm in my OK Go renaissance era. Why did I ever stop listening to this band?? We played some of their videos for my kid and I'm obsessed!
no one:

OK GO in 2050: our new video features one dozen genetically engineered clones of each band member that form a children's choir specifically trained on our entire discography
