@elonmusk I'm a teacher. I can't imagine many of us (if any) saying this. I always advocate kids learning on their own as well as school. Teachers WANT kids to learn as much as possible and most aren't self important enough to think they are the only source of learning in a child's life.
I teach US history, and we're just starting English colonies. I said Elizabeth I ruled when the first (unsuccessful) English settlement began. One student was very confused and asked, "Didn't she just die today?" Had to let him know she's a different person. #QueenElizabeth
@StephenKing Please use your influence in Maine to help get Susan Collins out of the Senate. Abortion was legal throughout the nation for my entire lifetime, until today (I'm 43)
I know everyone is upset about the roe v wade ruling today. So am I. But... If we're looking at the long game, elect democrats so we can get an actual amendment to make abortion legal. Oh, and since legal precedent is out the door, let's revisit rulings on the 2nd amendment too
I heard on the news today that gun violence is the most common cause of death for children instead of the old standby, car accidents. Well yeah, you have to pass a written and practical test, do an eye exam, and get a license to drive a car legally.
@FoxNews@IngrahamAngle Teachers are already leaving the profession in record numbers because pay hasn't kept up with inflation and the amount of paperwork and other nonsense is insane. But sure, let's vilify a group of people who, by and large, care the most about the wellbeing and futures of children.
@Eve6 You still can! Go hang around someone with tuberculosis and then don't take any antibiotics. You can still get cholera and dysentery too if you try hard enough.
@Detailing_Guru @SusannaHoffs Yeah, that's who I was thinking... But he was a heartthrob of the 20s. I thought maybe Valentino was a male model or something.
