@elonmusk How little self-awareness must one have, having been born into enough wealth not to ever have worried about one's survival, and always having the wherewithal to migrate freely, to want to punish people for the "crime" of trying to find a safe place for their families to survive.
@elonmusk You know this is an inaccurate claim, and yet you hope to be believed by your ignorant sycophants. That's pretty shameful.
Most places in the US require ID to vote, and others check records to ensure the legitimacy of votes.
You know that. Why misinform?
@AdamKinzinger Of COURSE #TrumpSmellsBad. His diet consists of McDonalds' #hamberders, Diet Coke, and #Adderall. His digestive tract must be a war zone, and he has a balloon knot for a mouth. Worse still, the guy oozes racism, bigotry, misogyny, and hubris.
He stinks in every possible way.
@NicholasBromfi1@CCguerilla I would say this is a reasonable consideration. I doubt I could do justice to grading if the absence of "cost" for late work resulted in half the semester's output coming in in the last week. (Especially when the time to submit grades is short.)
@timgould_scienc@CCguerilla I think we also have to acknowledge that not all students have the same amount of time to manage.
(Also--I live in a world of deadlines, & I rely on grace when I am late--not infrequently--because sometimes life just does not cooperate no matter how well one plans.)
@Kate_Ames@CCguerilla I feel the same way about not weighting the scores more heavily to the end of the term. It seems so dumb to have the grade be just as much based on what they knew at the beginning & middle of the term (not to mention disadvantaging students who start further behind) as at the end
@CCguerilla Students are different; Some will ask for an extension, some will bite the bullet & just do what they can without the time they need & accept what they get. (Those ones are the ones I worry will get the idea that they just aren't capable when sometimes, life just asks too much.)
@CCguerilla Agree 100% on the hypocrisy angle. I still struggle w/ late work as a fairness issue, though. My (imperfect) solution so far is that if < 1 student in a class needs an extension, to offer it to everyone (bc there will undoubtedly be others who could also use more time.
@MicrobiomDigest Is it that lines 2-4 are identical except for color, and the very first upward blip on the first line needs to go home because it is drunk?
@stats_feed@elonmusk He purposefully attacked victims of school shootings and their families, knowingly spreading disinformation (which has been adjudicated in court.) He's been found liable for it. Why would anyone even think of replatforming such a malignant creature?

Platform a despicable excuse for a human who caused interminable pain to survivors & families affected by a school shooting? @Elon are you amoral, sociopathic, or both? Why even consider this?
(Sensible, humane people, please vote. Apparently this narcissist needs attention.)
@Retroscopic1@fesshole Unless you're in a field that relies heavily on credentials . . . like jobs that, for instance, require a PhD (and dissertation.)
