@beckyjo17 Desperate for rain in Northeast. Isaias didn't drop a bit of rain and still lost power for eight days. Praying for the Gulf Coast to make it through this season. We can't handle a catastrophic storm now.
Just never understood why people would be against trying to get more people to vote and increase turn out. Sounds so unAmerican to be so against democracy. More people voting should always be a good thing.
@cydharrell it was the telegraph not the TV. Started be used in 1843. In 1845 we federally mandated one election day so results in one state would not influence another. Don't need to go far back to see delayed election results. GORE v Bush most recent.
Watching his earlier interviews that day just horrifies me. Seems so determined and knowing the good he was doing.... How did we get here? When young kids feel their duty to join militias and possibly shoot down other Americans?
@JapanMelon Recounts and time = integrity not fraud. That is literally the enite point of recounts. If you wanna cheer on @realdonaldtrump removing a 10 year Repub advantage in mail-in/absentee ballots be my guest.
@cydharrell No worries. As someone who studies Internet and learning the Telegraph is fascinating. We wouldn't, for example, teach cursive without the Telegraph.
@tiersaj Free Public Libraries are under attack. The suit against @internetarchive should scare any library fan. Want to take away buy once lend forever model. Make books into subscriptions like music. Turn libraries into Netflix
@Dani_Knope Zoom policies the new SLANT. People romanticize schools. The system began as a tool of racist assimilation and now exists to warehouse kids for childcare and serve adults in the education industry
@HPS_Vanessa And realization Higher Ed system is reflections of institutional racism. Money, resources, and rich white kids go to R1. All the workload and none of the cash flow down through state colleges than community colleges
Rittenhouse must pay for crimes but dont think was 1st degree. Traveling across state lineS establishes premedidtation but just stupid kid (side effect of being 17) in country stupid enough to give assualt rifles to stupid kids.
Faculty knew, especially if you work at schools that teach BIPOC students (community colleges) not study them (R1) but many waking up to truth that Higher Ed career trajectory takes advantage and enhances inequity. It does not fight it.
@dogtrax keep trying but not finding my poem can't grasp fleeting peace that settles in on Kady Did Cackles as stars straggle kecklling hope around our blue pebble #smallpoems
