      Texas is just mad that they get to be their own country and we don't.

    And this isn't virtue signalling? "Look at how good we are. Look at how normal we are! Be like me or else!"

    They have become everything they hate about SJWs, but with actual power, so it really is a matter of "just give him the praise and worship and whatever he wants and he won't ruin our lives!"

      it's even explicitly in their sacred text and in the words of the one they consider to be a living god: they are like whitewashed tombs, beautiful on the outside, but full of dead men's bones.

      same shit been going on since forever with these vicious people, hating in the name of love and killing in the name of life.

      I don't really believe anymore, but these people make me sick.

    I was blown away the first time I heard of "portables". Like, just build the school big enough

      If they spent it on buildings, how could they afford a new football stadium, metal detectors at every entrance, and a team of school resource officers?? 😤

      AFAIK they're supposed to be "temporary" rooms, but that "temporary" can mean a decade or more in practice. My high school had several prefab rooms set up the second year I was there and didn't put up another building until several years after I left and they had to shut the entire school down for that year for the construction, meaning everyone there got shunted off into trailers outside two other nearby highschools for that year.

    A little, yeah. I mean, why on earth would you put the band hall at the top of the stairs like that, music equipment can be heavy as fuck!

      The Sousaphone in the band room has a huge dent in the bell

    It's been kind of a shock for me becoming an adult honestly. I went to school in a deep creepy part of the south and effectively had a parochial religious education and I grew up thinking the religious patriotic stuff was what happened in every school. There were daily flagpole prayer sessions, students were encouraged to pray after the pledge of allegiance, we'd have Bible readings in music class. Flags were absolutely everywhere in the halls and outside. There would occasionally be outside groups performing in the gym doing music and skits about abstinence, joining the military, or just loving Jesus. I thought all of that was normal and just part of school.

    Although, at the risk of doxxing myself, my school in particular did get sued for first amendment violations because of all the religion stuff and it became a minor national scandal.
