I'm sure someone can help him sound out the words.

This makes so much sense. I think a lot about the uneven levels of instruction people received during COVID time. Most teachers were winging it. It's almost like we need to build in time to refresh people's memory (or teach concepts they might not know). That's not every teacher's strong suit though

I'm curious. What effects did COVID have on your learning?

I learned last go round that reputation means nothing during a Trump Presidency. These kind of stories from "liberal" sources, don't have an impact on the voter base and they don't affect what happens in Congress.

How you deny wrongdoing when you have to pay people because they were done wrong? 😂 I'm so glad those women are getting what their owed.

True. It is more entertaining to see what they can do on 3rd step!

Thanks! So, sometime in the early 2000s the rules get more lax. I was aware of the gather rule in the NBA. I'm just seeing way more than 2 steps so regularly, and those buzzer beaters this week where both traveled are really proof that something is either not working or it's working as intended.

Oooh, okay. I mean, you might be right. I surely have seen more 3 and 4 steps since LeBron and I love the 👑. But good gracious. The refs really don't call travel anymore.

Crab dribble, huh? He definitely took 3 steps. Still don't see how it's related. Do you mean this is when refs stopped blowing the whistle on that last step? And I hate Harden's stepback so much even if it beats the technicalities (and I'm still not sure it really does).

Right?!

At this point, he's just choosing his reality TV buddies.

What harm is she preventing? What is she protecting "biological" women from? You know what I want? A bill that makes it illegal to leave the toilet nasty because some of yall are straight up gross in public 🚺 restrooms. How did you leave that stall like that, ma'am? She needs to police that.

I do miss regular looking people on TV. I know what you mean.

I'm interested, but I'm already deeply entangled. Kindle (I also use Libby and regularly check out Kindle library books). Audible (tried Libro.fm). Kindle syncs with Goodreads. My fave fellow readers are there. It's social without being annoying. Plus Bezos and 'nem already have my Prime money.

This is interesting to think about. Is South African X unlikely or uninterested in moving? Do you see any discussion there of people considering ditching the other app?

Well, if we individually and collectively block people who are negative, probably for a few months... until corporate gets over here.

I know someone you should add: @drnickiw.bsky.social

It's true. He sounds so unhinged, but like it's normal. I'm not fighting nobody like that. Even if I have a chance to beat him because I know every time he hits me, he's hitting me like he doesn't care about life.
