I’m upvoting, not because I agree, but because this is probably the least popular opinion on this thread, and I commend you for taking such a stance.

I just up and left. I never deleted any comments or my account. I just left everything up there. Sure they might want to see me as “active” but I haven’t logged in for over a month and a half at this point.

And my axe!

Pizza and weed sounds like a good business model, tbh

It’s like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.

With posts like this, you can never quite tell if it’s real or fake…

Maybe… Maaaaaayyyyyyybeeeee the Democrats need to nominate someone who is actually worth getting excited about instead of just being not-Trump.

No, what’s worse is that DeSantis isn’t ignorant. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

I see her husband found a truly mind-blowing place to hide.

Was this in the 2000s? After the Columbine shooting, a lot of schools banned big trench coats and other long jackets because you could have hIdDeN wEaPoNs under them

IIRC didn’t they have a small amount of alcohol or other chemical that kids would use too many of to purposely get drunk/high? Maybe I’m thinking of something else though

I agree with you 100%. What they are latching on to is the fact that SOMETIMES, in EXTREMELY LIMITED AND SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCES, some enslaved people were able to “hire themselves out” as craftsmen when they had done whatever work the enslaver had required of them. An even more limited number of those enslaved people were paid for their work and got to keep their pay.

But the percentage of people we are talking about here is tiny … but it is nonzero. The standard therefore isn’t completely wrong, but it absolutely gives the impression that these cases were waaaay more common than they actually were.

they can be used almost 24/7 for years on end

Great. Now I have MORE questions!

What would make a dildo “industrial strength”? What industry would require such strength? Surely the porn industry, but are non-industrial-strength dildoes so flimsy that they will fall apart regularly? I kind of feel like if you need an industrial-strength dildo, there are far more problems than an industrial-strength dildo would solve.

But… what if I don’t have any piercings & never have?

Nothing happened there for the entire year?!? No military parades? No groups of people coming together to talk about what they have in common? Amazing that nothing happened there for an entire year!

Teaching as a profession sucks ass in general right now… but at least a lot of the special educator-specific bullshit is not my problem anymore. But thank you.

Someone told me that if I wanted to be a history teacher I should get a degree in special Ed to “make myself more marketable.” It took 14 years to get out of special education and land a job teaching history

There are, in fact, no products in that empty drawer. I promise I’m not hiding them from you, ma’am.

Hey, now. We also make friends online!
