I've seen the humans by the lake characterized as "rich" or the classic misanthropy, "condo people" (who, because they couldn't afford a house, are lesser humans) but adjacent to the airport is a dense cluster of affordable housing/co-ops. Little Norway et al.
Our district just informed us they are prohibiting the teaching of full-length novels and nonfiction texts in all non-AP ELA classes, including Pre-AP English 1 and 2: We're to use only the excerpts in the SAVVAS textbook. They're going so far as to tell us to "DCR" our novel sets, meaning the books are loaded onto pallets and trucked to a distant warehouse, never to be used again. Once the wave of nausea passed, I began wondering what College Board would have to say about upperclassmen showing up in Lang or Lit, not having read a book since elementary school. Suddenly they're supposed to start reading long, complex texts? I don't teach Lit, but I'm looking for some help for a counter-argument. The strongest evidence would come from College Board's saying the students are expected to read novels and nonfiction on their way to AP.

Roberts has presented himself as this serious, sober student of the law dedicated to “calling balls and strikes” but in the last weeks we are learning that he is about as clean and honest as the rest of Trumps allies and cronies.
John Roberts' wife is not the only Supreme Court spouse to shake down people with business before the court to give bribes. Ginni Thomas has a "consulting firm" (AKA a PO Box for checks) to funnel money to Clarence. #Corruption

The pope never mentioned Dr. Donald Jesus Trump by name when speaking against war. Trump just told on himself. His Holiness could do the funniest thing ever now and denounce rape or tax fraud in general terms… just to see what would happen.

Pope Leo:
This reminds me of how high-control religions will often send their youth on proselytizing missions. It’s more to have the youth feel “persecuted” when people reject them and therefore bind them tightly to the religion.
Exactly one year ago today:
The mistake that was made with Nixon/Watergate, Reagan+Bush/Iran-Contra, Bush II/Iraq, Trump/J6 must not be repeated. Other than Ford’s brief interregnum, it’s alarming that last GOP Administration where there weren’t high crimes and misdemeanours was Ike(!)
Free pop culture meme/joke idea: Erika Kirk’s use of a black and white palette with gold accents for her branding is basically the same as Angine de Poitrine’s colour way.
Hey Ontario, your premier just bought himself a $30 million private jet. Think about that while our schools and hospitals crumble. What an ass.

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books in a Scottish Highlands cottage during a pouring rain whilst enjoying a plate of emotional support cinnamon rolls?

And look, in a general election, voting for the lesser evil isn’t a bad idea - I support there being less evil in the world! But when progressive parties are selecting their nominees, every centrist should have to fight for their spot on the ballot!
