Idk but Iowa gotta be up there

One of the first states to legalize gay marriage and top public schools to actual maga hogs in less than a decade

I feel offended.

We're much closer to North Alabama these days.

True! And my district is 60%+ at risk and rising.

Why the fuck would you care about my class if mom and dad are fighting/divorcing or you don't have food or you have to walk to school in -30 wind-chill because your school won't delay?

I wouldn't. I don't know what the answer is, I just know it's fucked and becoming more fucked.

Expect things to get a lot worse.

I teach HS. Zero comprehension skills. Either can't or won't read or follow basic directions. My gradebook looks like a shitty battleship game with all the red missing assignments.

And I teach agriculture and mostly give participation and completion points. They just don't do anything.

Coupled with a teacher shortage and mass resignations due to pay stagnation and more and more being asked of teachers. Oh and like COVID making every teacher sick all the time.

Fun times in the school system.

Which, speaking of, when we getting these? Because I ordered them right away and haven't gotten them yet and my car has stopped working so having an at home test would be pretty neat ngl

Can't wait for more years of weirder and more dangerous shit.

In Iowa we had a tornado in December, it was 30-40 for the longest time, then it was -30 in January (usually not -30 range until February). The wind has also been especially bad this year.

It's gonna be a fun time watching climate change kill us all.

Ope looks like we need to increase military and police budgets to account for added expense.

No we're not raising teacher pay, why do you ask?!?

Edit: all this shit with education is just going to lead to the abolishment of public education. You want your kid educated? Pay for it, dickhead.

TIL there's a no strike list and it doesn't just say: everything

Broke: Biden and Liz Cheney 2024

Woke: Biden and Dick Cheney 2024

Lol at least they like, test them and they're wearing masks.

Come out to the wild west in Iowa. No mask mandate. If one of my students tests positive, I'm not told. There's no testing required or quarantine.

The only reason we don't have staff and students out is because no one gets tested so everyone sick probably has it but no one knows for sure.

But if it does get really bad here we have like 3 subs total so we'll see what happens lol

My 2022 prediction is that the NFT economy will be replaced by betting markets betting on if new variants will be more/less deadly/contagious than other variants.

Like a horse race but dystopian.

I live in Iowa. You'd think after yearly snows that measure into the fucktons they'd have figured out a better way to clear roads more quickly. Add on the fact that chuds in their comically large trucks forget how to drive in any amount of ice/snow every year and almost kill someone stopping at a stop sign.

But you know Iowa is a majority black state so it's their fault.

Getting downvoted for saying facts I see, never change Reddit, you notorious commie scum!

I watched this movie when it came out and I have literally no recollection of what happened other than some virus shit and Cuba was in it lmao

"children won't be allowed in schools"

Smh fascists aren't even competent. Remove the children from the communist parents and into reeducation camps that vilify their parents and indoctrinate them.

Instead you ban them from schools? A place where you could introduce them to your ideology?

C'mon fascists, simple stuff

For some more context, striking is illegal for teachers in Iowa. You get fined $500/day, can be fired, and potentially jailed for half a year. But realistically, if a whole district or a large chunk of the state strikes, would that be enforced? Especially with the teacher shortage?

Or maybe something more local like a signed staff letter saying if demands aren't met they will resign?

Labor rights in this country are so fucked.

Matrix 2 and 3 must've been super forgettable because I had no idea what the actual fuck was going on the whole time.

Seemed like a good film, I'll have to rewatch 2 and 3 and then give it another go

You forgot me:

Superhero movies are bland propaganda that ranges from raging dumpster fire to dangerously mediocre in terms of writing but I like shutting my brain off to watch the pretty colors to forget about having to get up for work tomorrow.

I hope they kill this fucker dead.

I don't care about it either way.

My favorite part of this is how professional the header is and then it's just a shit post tweet.

Trump for court jester after the revolution.
