One thing about this that could get interesting is when the school leaders are different versions of the Christian/Catholic faith. Which Bible do you use? Which lessons do you incorporate? What about the trinity? Mary? The saints?
It would be fun to watch, ngl
When I was younger and going to clubs, one club in particular always had drag queens just hanging out in the women’s restroom doing their makeup, talking, whatever, because it had a long mirror/makeup area.
They’d use the bathroom and we would share makeup tips and they were just so funny and having the best time and everyone loved them.
No one felt threatened ffs
Popeyes is fucking awesome.
My partner is an educator in Texas and I showed this to them. So thanks for posting, OP, getting the word out and such.
About an hour later, Whitefeather returned home and guided deputies to another 6-year-old girl who was visiting with another couple from their church.
Good Christian folks, I see.
It sounds like it didn’t get reviewed By the publisher and he seems genuinely apologetic.
Miami New Times publisher Adam Simon tells Axios the ad is unacceptable and he’s changing the alt weekly’s ad review process.
- Normally, he said, staffers — including himself — review ads prior to publication. But in this case, the ad came in past their deadline and Simon did not review it.
- The New Times will no longer take ads so late that they can’t be reviewed, he said.
- “Naturally, had I seen it, which I should have, I would not have let it run as is.”
Who knows for sure, but I was expecting whoever ran the ad to either be a supporter or completely indifferent. It was a nice surprise to see them also be upset instead.
Are they still using COPV’s? The engineer in me needs to know.
The irony here is that south Louisiana is still very segregated when it comes to education - those who can afford it send their kids to Catholic school. So a decent amount of students already have this. He’s just trying to “own the libs” in a PR stunt.
I would have to agree that 1 cm/crime is indeed a rumor. It’s much larger than that.
Perfect.
But do they put giant “In God We Trust” decals on the back to reach maximum level of cringe?
They did this, too:
The Epoch Times directed millions of dollars in advertising toward supporting President Donald Trump’s campaign and published dozens of articles parroting his lies about the election — resulting in huge growth to its audience and its coffers.
Makes perfect sense…good luck in your journey :)
Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate it! I can only listen to podcasts when I drive really, it’s the only time I’m able to focus on them. I can’t turn one on at home and just…listen. Maybe if I’m cleaning or something but I prefer music to do that for motivation.
I have a Kindle Oasis and I LOVE it! It’s the perfect size to slip in my purse, it’s thin, and I have multiple books with me at all times. I highly recommend it!
It was the one thing that consistently relieved some of my ADHD boredom though, which is priceless lol
I wish I could be like some of the other commenters here and say that leaving Reddit has been good because of the time suck that it was, or that I’m self-hosting xyz, but I can’t. And I am truly jealous.
I’m still looking to scratch that itch and there’s…nothing. I’m just very bored now but I haven’t gone back because I’m so angry at the way it ended. I do like Lemmy a lot, and Mastodon since I also gave up Twitter, but for better or worse they were a big part of my life and I’m not doing amazing things and coming to wonderful realizations now that they’re gone. It’s just depressing all around.
I volunteer in disaster response, and hurricane season started today and Reddit and Twitter were huge resources for us. Do you know how much of a loss that is? That can’t be replaced…entire communities, regions, parishes, counties, cities, states…they aren’t going to magically swap from one service to another because spez and Space Karen are assholes.
I’m sorry for the rant but enshittification sucks and I am sad.
TLDR I agree with you, OP.
Man…I just spent way too much time on the site mentioned in the article and TLDR I am worried. Very worried.
Damn. That’s some depressing perspective right there.
The lifeguard seemed particularly triggered by the turquoise and pink stripes on the original Pride flag designed by Gilbert Baker, which represent magic and sex, respectively.
Gonna go out on a limb and say that this man is no fun at parties.
A different perspective - my grandparents grew up speaking French. Then the state passed a law saying only English in schools when they were young children. They would get hit on the hands with rulers for speaking French.
This was of course passed down to my parents and myself. But my mom still bitches about kids where I currently live being in school and unable to speak English because they’re new immigrants.
She doesn’t see the hypocrisy and it’s sad.
