    this is the primary way I interact with my kids teachers, and they’re in public school. we use an app, so the parents don’t have access to the staffs personal phone numbers, so there’s really no response unless the staff member is available to read and respond as part of their job.

    I agree. I’ve had problems with this working for a school district, when a student was younger a nickname teachers and students called them was innocent enough, but as they are getting older they find it embarrassing and they have difficulty communicating on top of that, so it was a headache. the adults should stick to preferred names only.








  • the national guard removed it in a training exercise, it was deemed a danger to public health as some 20+ people needed to be rescued from the site, and 2-4 people died trying to reach it. it was in a difficult area to hike to, that required crossing a river, so a lot of people who wanted to visit it didn’t have the skills to reach it and return safely.



  • I’m getting real sick of the headlines. “Science company says AI will be used to Re-Write the human genome, and identify future Terrorists for the CIA with only random lists of birth certificates, while it designs a 3D printable human heart that has built in wifi controls with 100% police access!”





  • tracks with my experiance, in a hardware store you get all these chuckleheads that come in and want “a good ol’ bang-a-long” and your like “sir… what is a bang-a-long?” and they throw a ten pound hissy fit and go “how in the gul durn heck of a cats pussy do you not know whahat a fucking bang-along-a-bang-bang is, I’ll kill you” and once they’re done being a stupid asshole to you they huff off and come back with a hammer and show you what their granddaddy told them is called a “bang-a-dang-a-ding-a-dong-dong” and they can’t grasp that the people who make and sell said hammer didn’t get that message from Pee-Paa. Then the next lead poisoning victim comes in and asks for an O-ring, and you have the GALL to ask them what they are using it for, and throw their ten pound hissy fit, because they haven’t been punched in the mouth enough as an adult I guess, and run off to find one, then come back and show you because you not being able to identify with only “and O-ring” to go off of which one of the 10,000 different size and material O-rings you carry they specifically meant means you have never heard of an O-ring. Then an unfrozen caveman comes in and ask for a telephone installation, which… you don’t mind helping him put minutes on his phone with a card, but he actually expects you to install phone lines from the city services to his home, you know, that thing the guy at the key cutting desk is KNOWN to do. traditionally.


  • He does one thing that Democrat candidates can’t seem to grasp. he messages very simple and repeatable claims about things he has done, often not even relevant to politics, and constantly brags while using them. what did Biden do? idiots don’t know, if he spent a lot more time using illiterate friendly words to repeatedly claim the things he’s done in his life, including his play time on Minecraft, he would be president still. Trump also has to constantly correct his handlers on this too, they try and get him following the past tropes of running for president and then they’re baffled when he edits the script to dog food for brains simple and just repeats himself constantly about what a great game of tennis he played once in the 70s, and he doesn’t even have a pet dog.
