Conversely, higher cognitive ability is uniformly associated with lower levels of online political participation. Those with both high psychopathy and low cognitive ability are the most actively involved in online political engagement.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.
"First they came for the immigrants, but I did not speak up, because I was one of the good immigrants" thought a lot of immigrants
On today’s commute: a metaphor.
Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.
Working through a problem and, more than anything else, coming up with just the right way to write something, bring me great joy and satisfaction. I cannot imagine wanting to short-circuit that, so I'll never be objective about this shit. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/m...
Dearest Brits, temperatures are rising to 30 degrees in many places. Everyone understands that self-esteem issues are common, but I promise you no one cares what you look like without that big thick hoodie. We do, however, care what you smell like with it on.
See, Trump’s not a Nazi—the gestapo had uniforms!
On ‘grit’ and school toilets: Helicopter Parents and Panopticon Schools are ruining entire generations.

Genuinely no idea why any non-American would visit the US right now. For any reason or length of time. I will pay any airfare and suffer any layover to avoid setting foot there even briefly.
Throwback to the exam day when I covered my year group’s notification board with motivational posters of my cats

Notice: Lianne and I are postponing our show on surviving the exam season because we haven’t figured out how to do it. Yet. Maybe not ever. Apologies!
Delightful news that has brightened my day. May all evil head teachers have the day they deserve 🥰

I'd quote Martin Niemöller but what's the point!
They came for the Trans community, they're attacking the disabled & elderly through their benefit requirements.
Now the gloves are off to fight with Reform to see who can be the most xenophobic and racist. Apparently that's what being British means!🙄
English Literature teachers: On this day, please remember that no matter how much revising your students have or haven’t done, they will all get exactly the grades they deserve. Your students grades are not your grades. Let it go and focus on leading the next group of horses to water.
This Monday on @ttradioofficial.bsky.social, Lianne and I will be chatting about the joys and stresses of starting a work at a new school. Join us to share your experiences!
Classrooms are inherently political.
Every time a teacher covers a topic or historical figure or literature, they are being political. The politics of those they leave in and those they leave out.
Stayed here on a solo trip and loved every second. Historic, comfortable, great location and fab window view of the New Church.

Peak Canada
"Good luck to the Great people of Canada. Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power, for free, to the highest level in the World, have your Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size, WITH ZERO TARIFFS OR TAXES, if Canada becomes the cherished 51st. State of the United States of America. No more artificially drawn line from many years ago. Look how beautiful this land mass would be. Free access with NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE! America can no longer subsidize Canada with the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year that we have been spending in the past. It makes no sense unless Canada is a State!"
