    Oven roux takes for fucking ever. I get a good base color in the oven and then go stove top to fine tune. Still takes forever.

    Yeah, that shit seems DOA.

    Good post, all well stated. I am aligned with what you are saying here. The DISD examples provided earlier seem quite reasonable to me. Bottom line, to me at least, the most local form of control is parental control. More power to parents, teachers, and local administrators, and in that order. Less to everyone above that level. We just went through this whole COVID school thing, there were lots of discussions here in real time about the challenges and the problems. Clearly there are not always easy answers.

    There so many wrong headed underlying assumptions baked into this post. Israel is a capable nation with a strong economy and ample resources. They needed to be weaned from the tit a long long time ago.

    But I was told greatest period of peace and prosperity in world history and the rules based international order.

    Love the direction of this discussion wrt examining the founders, the context of the first amendment and the American Revolution (in today's parlance, terrorism), and why bootlickers would rather focus on discussions of protestors instead of what our tax dollars, military support, and the state department clown show is running to ground. But at some point we should probably recenter around what they are distracting from. ETA: spoiler tagged for the sensitive types.

    All sounds reasonable to me. Throw in some accountability for performance and mechanisms for parents of children in failing schools to exercise options.

    Bolverk is a kind soul and I mean that with absolutely no disrespect to him. He apologizes far too frequently.

    will trade pizza for shooting and/or defensive position training.

    amazing how our educational system has failed us on basic civics and american history.

    My wife can straight up bastardize an onion like no ones business. But she boils exquisite eggs, a skill I simply cannot master. Baking is witchcraft to me.

    I hope that you guys have come around to understanding what this poster is.

    You seem like you would be among the chief bootlickers tongue boxing king georges fart box. But tell us all more about the first amendment you fucking clown.
  16. Anastasis
    LOL. Jesus Christ the stupid baked into this post.

    Kids wanted some pizza for their last night before back to school.

    If you can gin up enough controversy to distract towards smelly hippy protesters without fully formed brains you can avoid talking about uncomfortable things like US bombs beheading brown babies and IDF soldiers sodomizing "detainees".

    We should pump tax dollars into whatever educational systems can demonstrate performance on outcomes and objective measures of educational attainment. And I say that as one with three kids in the public school system.

    Troph, be aware that SSRIs can transiently increase anxiety initially. It makes a lot of sense to bridge during initiation of an SSRI with a benzo. Also the initial activation can be associated with suicidal thoughts or potentially increased impulsivity. You sound pretty tuned in to your headspace, but given some of your comments, just be mindful...those first few weeks can be a ride while the neurochemistry is sorting out.

    Seems reasonable that a state voucher program should track tuition increases and remove the school from eligibility if they appear to be gaming the system.
  22. Anastasis
    I am happy to consume whatever hard data you can share.
  23. Anastasis
    How much did they raise tuition?

    LOL at academic administrative bloat under the microscope at Florida. Sasse just resigned ostensibly as a result of his wife’s neurological post stroke seizure situation.
