So interesting! I took AP English and History in HS and I don’t remember there even being AP options for science?? Maybe there was—maybe I was even in them? or was on some other track that I didn’t know about?—but your post and my experience makes me realize I thought AP *was* a Humanities thing
San Francisco educators won big after just four days on strike. "[The school district] found the money for the things they said they couldn’t. They agreed to the language they said they couldn’t," said Ilan Desai-Geller, a high school teacher and strike captain.

I trust journalists way more than cops and courts to investigate sexual violence allegations. When a thoroughly reported journalistic investigation comes out, like the ones about Eric Swalwell, I’ve seen enough. If you haven’t done this work you may be unaware of how much goes into it.
All I'm saying is we should be able to find people who aren't rapists or sex pests or don't have Nazi tattoos to represent us in Congress I do not think I'm asking for the world here
it's just so funny, an entire generation was like "we must raise our children towards a fairer, kinder world" and as soon as their kids got old enough to actually try to build that fairer kinder world they acted like it was some huge mystery why all the young people weren't bloodthirsty war boosters
There is no ceasefire in Lebanon. Israel has been bombing Lebanon non-stop since last night. If anything Israel is expanding its war on Lebanon.
You are being lied to

excommunicate JD Vance, ffs.
I’ve been seeing a lot of “what the fuck am I even supposed to DO today” and feeling that myself, and after some thought, here’s where I’ve come down
First, call your house rep/senators. Yes, I know that feels pointless. Do it anyway. Helpful script below

Since today is Republic of Systems Independence Day, which in our calendar falls on the Monday after Easter, thus making holiday appropriate treats like candy eggs and peeps half price, I offer you the traditional Peeps Diorama.

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?
It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.
If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.
Everyone give this a share after.
FEDERAL FALLOUT? About 17,000 federally funded community health centers are bracing for fallout from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which could collectively cost the nonprofits $32 billion over five years, including one in Lincoln.

A new bill to tax the rich's wealth isn't that interesting. Here's what's interesting: the same bill was introduced 5 years ago, & since then the revenue estimate has *doubled*. Yes, billionaires have twice as much money as they did at the beginning of the 2020s.

I know there's a lot going on
But what the US is doing to Cuba is unconscionable
A Texas school district has banned HOW LONG TIL BLACK FUTURE MONTH, along with over 1500 other books. Mine was kicked bc it's labeled for adults, which is true. But so are every one of my books, which are available in most schools.
That's the only one with "Black" in the title, tho.
Turns out that when every Somali case I have in court suddenly got expedited and reassigned to a new judge, it wasn't just me! The DOJ has officially denied that there is an expedited "Somali Docket," but now the public data refutes their denial. Here are the highlights: 🧵 bklg.org/blog/somali-...
The world is full of assholes who think there is only one way to rock, it’s a metaphor for our times
(I know that’s a non-VH Sammy Hagar song, possibly his best; and he was still so wrong)
Was talking shit with co-workers about the merits of Van Halen and how DLR>>SH, which my subconscious apparently felt strongly enough about that I woke up thinking “OBVIOUSLY there’s more than one way to rock?!”
Hi hello there's a lot happening, but want to draw attention to an urgent need in the community—
78 yr old Raymond & his 95 yr old mother are facing eviction *immediately* if they don't pay back rent to the tune of $3200. Fundraiser is sitting at 27%.

Thinking about how, the other day, I saw an RTE article that was like "only 8% of farmers willing to rewild", as if 8% wouldn't make a HUGE difference. And I'd say that once the benefits of rewilding that 8% was clear, you'd likely have a lot more people interested in it
We have to destroy all trucks and SUVs...we must do it for America
