Stop calling them government schools. They are public schools that are accountable and serve democracy by equipping citizens to participate in a republic. Your oligarchic fantasy will not happen.

I can't believe that educators are still recommending to read The Boy In the Striped Pajamas... #sschat

Kansas & Oklahoma are the target of a dangerous severe weather setup on Monday. This has been in the #LRC forecast for 80-days to arrive this week. Conditions are coming together for a potential outbreak that will threaten the KC metro area by late afternoon or evening.

I keep forgetting to post a quick review of Pekka Hämäläinen’s book Indigenous Continent. This is an incredible book that challenges the readers traditional notions of Euro and Indigenous Sovereignty: competing, negotiating, trading, cooperating…in N. America. Must have book!!

I don’t deviate from Christian traditional casually

That said, don’t tell me the same people that oppressed women, upheld the institution of slavery and corrupted themselves with power for the better part of 2k years somehow got a cumulative 4.0 on theology

Preach!!!

Happy #AAPIHeritageMonth ! Let this month be a reminder to include all histories, all year. Students deserve to see themselves and others in the curriculum they are learning! #NCSS2024 #sschat

the less one interacts with current university students, the more vocally one claims to understand them, and the quicker one is to condemn them.

I'm so glad Walter “Ted” Carter Jr. just clarified why he authorized training snipers on our students and arresting those who had peaceably assembled.

Per his statement, he was deeply concerned about over burdening the toilets in the union.

Somebody's full of shit and it aint the kids.

Wheel of Fortune with my grandma = a dream come true! You can watch us on TV May 10!
