Walters said at Thursday’s meeting that Boismier violated rules that prohibit instruction on topics related to race and gender. He told reporters that she “broke the law.”

Oh? I didn't realize providing a link to an online resource was considered teaching or had anything to do with race or gender. 🤔

"People who are barely surviving have extremely limited freedom," he writes.

"All their time and energy go into earning enough money to pay for groceries, shelter, and transportation to jobs … a good society would do something about the deprivations, or reductions in freedom, for people with low incomes.

This is community.

I didn’t put the link as to not be accused of advertising (this not mine nor am I associated in any way). If you want it, let me know.

These problems don’t just hit the poorest individuals, although the poorest are most badly affected. Even affluent people would enjoy a better quality of life if they lived in a country with a more equal distribution of wealth, similar to a Scandinavian nation. They might see improvements in their mental health and have a reduced chance of becoming victims of violence; their children might do better at school and be less likely to take dangerous drugs.

You see, “upper-middle class”, you can benefit too, stop voting against it!

And he said, 'No, I ain't scared, but if anything happens to me, it's not suicide.'

He pretty much said “I think something may happen to me and they will make it look like a suicide.”

Unless she's got a recording or document, the article's title could have been, "Family friend tells reporter a story"

Yeah, it won’t hold up in court, and neither would it if she had recorded this casual, intimate conversation between two old friends.

Maybe, though, it’s enough to get the coroner to take another look at his death.

I'm not any defender of corporations, by any means, but I'm not sure that I'm willing to take the word of a "close family friend" who "needed help one day" any more than some corporate HR;

You sure have a lot more faith in corporations than I do…

It’s so weird to me seeing Squdward as the rebel teen when everything he is screams “curmudgeon middle aged childless introvert”.

Holy shit, this literally aimed at helping kids vape in school… this makes me sad.

edit: yes, also anyone in a no vape office, but I see these being used in middle school to high school eventually.
