No lies detected. It's actually insane how smartphones effectively ruined computer literacy for younger Gen Z and Alpha.

High school girls might as well be allergic to protein. They will make a lunch of carbs every time if given the chance.

Chappell Roan really seems like the embodiment of the behavior in GenZ that has everyone terrified to talk to each other
Footballer Jorginho Frello calls out Chappell Roan after her security confronted his young daughter: “No one should have to go through this, especially not a child.”

Basketball is basically the worst game in the world to watch. The only thing that matters is the last 2 minutes.
Last weekend...an NBA regular season game was beaten in the ratings by a bass fishing tournament on FOX. With nearly half the teams in the league tanking...the NBA has been surpassed by Major League Baseball as the second most popular league in America.

I don't think the standards for school music could be much dumber. Being in an ensemble is not seen as good enough...you have to "create" music. Funny thing is...you don't actually have to create music to be a musician. They are two completely different skills.

Basically every teacher with high expectations sees PBIS and goes "that will not work." Turns out, those people were always correct. 20 years of wasted money and wasted time to get terrible results.
If you’re hearing of PBIS for the first time and wondering how it contributes to classroom disorder, I did an investigation with @CityJournal Talked to teachers, talked to PBIS trainers, dug into the research https://t.co/Lel1HFwtb3

Being an HS teacher for any real length of time will radicalize you on public order at least *somewhat*, it is unavoidable that these two lessons are learned by Year Three (the third year is when you know if you're cut out for this job or not, most quit Year 3-5)
@alwaysadblock Again ask any high school teacher. (1) 90% of problems are caused by 2% of the students (2) some kids are just bad eggs, it happens

@TrenAndHaloRage "What GROWN man goes to a therapist?" This is really the point. Almost nothing good can come from this. Some person who's own life is probably a mess is going to tell you how to put yourself back together again while billing you several hundred dollars an hour. If they fix you

It’s useless to go to concerts anymore because people won’t shut up. Tone deaf “singing” from the most obnoxious people in the world.
A man attends a performance of the Broadway hit Mamma Mia! expecting to enjoy the music and the story live on stage. But throughout the show, a group of women sitting behind him sing along to nearly every song — loudly. As well as talking Thru the 1st Act of the Performance. At

Imagine if the school wasn’t there and you had to manage having kids without it. This is dumb
A mother who works about 70 hours a week received a school calendar listing all the holidays, early releases, and teacher planning days. Curious, she used ChatGPT to organize every day her kids would be off from school during the year. When she saw the full list, she was shocked

Why is it that education is the only profession where people are expected to work for free? Is it possible for a coach's motivation not be singular? Maybe he wants to work with young people AND buy groceries for his family? COACHES, NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR HOW MUCH MONEY YOU EARN!
High school coaches: Paid more than ever. Collecting camp money. Adding a percentage of that pay to their pension - in Illinois. More technology than ever to do their jobs and in most cases, a bigger budget to do things than decades of past. The result: More lazy high school

Canada is insanely stacked - perhaps the best team ever assembled. If the US manages to somehow beat them it will be the greatest hockey upset against a Communist power since the Miracle on Ice.

The central purpose of a school is learning. Teachers are not therapists, clergy, politicians, or stand in parents. Our role is to teach.

Every time you hear "equity" in an educational context, you can almost guarantee that it means pulling the best students/teachers down.

There are two groups of people: 1. Those who think teacher training programs do a good job of preparing teachers for the job. 2. Those who have actually attended them.
