Three points I keep repeating
1. Left and liberal voters actually really exist
2. The right and "centre" are trying to rule without liberals - they are way out over their skis
3. Reports of right wing total information control are greatly exaggerated

So lovely watching children play our games. Two things stand out: 1) The huge amount of mathematical though in this 70s clip 2) Sound on to hear the quiet concentration of the rest of the class doing the same,

The reaction to the Panorama edit has been nothing short of hysterical. Yes the BBC has some impartiality problems. But its biggest isn't the one you think.

Having an equestrian daughter means getting a series of videos of "look, here's the big lump of gunk I just pulled out of a horse's cock". "Look, here's the horse's cock it came out of". "Look, I came back later to film it again, just in case you didn't get it the first time"

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

So great to be in school today - felt timely to be working with a class on their fluency in addition and subtraction given the curriculum review recommendations! They were all so engaged and confident in their talk, reasoning and recall of number facts 😀

I spit on the reputation of the U.S. Supreme Court, not that it can get much more degraded than it has already become by the repulsive actions of its disgusting GOP members.
You can hear the transphobic sneer in these words.

The traitors producers must be counting down the days until a contestant notices it makes no difference who they eliminate and the whole Traitor/Faithful divide is an artificial construct with very little relevance to the actual result of the show until the last episode.
