Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I feel for kids today and the hellscape that is american education. I sneaked thru public school right in the nick of time. Busses were something you could rely on. Now kids don't even have that and they get sent to the library that's now a prison for acting out.
I grew up with fully public bus service. K-12 never had a late bus once with the exception of emergency weather events
Same. I rode the bus right up until I got my license in my senior year and it was only severe weather events like a blizzard where it was suspended.
I also had this, across multiple school districts (changed schools several times).
And I was mostly very rural. Sure the trip took an hour or so because I was typically first on last off, but it was always there, and even waited for me if they saw me coming (1/4 mile driveway in one place, but never really close to the stop either way).
Where I am, school lunches are so carved up and privatized that it's just reheated "catering services" junk food that costs more than just having lunch ladies and a working cafeteria.
I don't know what I'll do if this "Zum" grift fucks this place up further.
