  1. Man, I don't know. I just finished Messiah myself, and I don't see the action of the first novel/movie. I can see that turning some folks off. It feels very much like Prophecy. Fortunately, I really liked Prophecy.
  2. Yeah, I always thought he was the "both sides suck" contrarian guy. I guess it was just a cover. Oh well, fool me once.
  3. It's not like teachers don't already have to deal with being labeled stupid, and then these idiots come around spouting the stupid. I know these people exist in all professions, but it just stings a little more seeing it from teachers. The only group that should probably be more anti-Trump is the clergy. But we all know those fuckers that voted for Trump are just straight evil.
  4. Funny how Elon Gault's libertarian mission to end all fraud never extends to the millions (billions?) he has gotten from the government.
  5. "We"? Aren't you a little old to be part of Elon's crew?
  6. 8 of my 9 ESL students were absent on Monday. I have no idea about their immigration status, but I hate that my mind went to worrying that their parents kept them home. Thankfully, they had all returned by the end of the week. But seriously, fuck this timeline.
  7. Wrong. They're just going to expect the schools and teachers to make the accommodations despite not having the staff or resources. Then they'll raise holy Hell and threaten lawsuits (which in Texas they'd win because of reasons) until they get what they want. Special privileges for me... bootstraps for thee. It'll fall on the the people actually doing the work. Same as it ever was.
  8. Orange Appeasement.
  9. Done. Now, if my son's college fund is going to shit, my retirement plans are going to shit, and the country's going to shit, at least I can play GTA 6 in a couple months.
  10. So, is today the day I pull the trigger on a PS5?
  11. Remember the uproar over Common Core? I remember.
  12. Sounds like someone needs to do their own research.
  13. Have I mentioned that I'm a public school teacher in Texas?
  14. Well, he did try to have Not Sure executed by Beef Supreme.
  15. By "fringe groups" do you mean teachers that mention slavery?
  16. Since we know where this is heading, does anybody want to enroll their kids in the School of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in creating? I promise a strict Pastafarian curriculum. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/24/us/supreme-court-oklahoma-religious-charter-school.html
  17. I'm one chapter in, and this was the feeling I couldn't quite put in words. I have no problem with his point, but I don't know if I can take the tone for the next 100 or so pages.
  18. Stop trying to make Gulf of America happen. It's not going to happen.
  19. Serious question... What the fuck an I supposed to say when a parent complains that I'm calling it the Gulf of Mexico?
  20. Who can buy maps? I gotta pay for eggs!
  21. If I tell the op that I'm a whiney, snowflake lib, and this thread has sent me into a rage-filled depression, do you think he'll fuck off? I mean, that's what he wants, right? I feel so owned.
  22. How does this make eggs cheaper?
