[And I'm not so naive that I don't recognize that education business-ized pretty much as soon as formal education became a thing]

When education became a business so learning had to be competitive because that's what business is...we gave up a lot.

Honestly, probably all of it.

To live in a world where ideas were to be wrestled with instead of commodified as checks on rubric tick sheet...

Very, very true.

The best I can figure Trevor Packer and David Coleman were told they were brilliant little students all through K-12 and then flunked their first written assignment in college hard.

And they've been looking to bring the bar down to their level ever since.

[Like I know it was bad then and that they're all watching it now, but just think if it was new and in theaters and we had to read all the reviews and social commentaries....]

Could you imagine if 300 was released today?

Then Harry came in and we FRAAB'ed and it was awesome.

And once Danny Rose scored against Arsenal I knew it was for life.

It was the fall of '08 & I started working with a guy who was a United fan and tried to get all the guys in our dept to find a team to follow.

I wanted a team that wasn't Arse/Pool/Oil money and remembered watching Spurs a few times back when I was in college and thought To Dare is To Do was legit.

Seeing Dawn Staley continuing to make Kim Mulkey act like a petulant child will never not be appointment viewing.

"empty plains" - get the fuck outta here.

Just noticed my typo. Gotta delete that.

Real "it's not surveillance unless it's from the surveillance region of late state capitalism" energy here.

Can we turn this into a poster? I'd buy a few.

"Is this gonna be graded?"

YouTube video by Sky Sports Premier League Harry Redknapp admits he wants the Spurs job...👀

Get the band back together folks!

Picture of former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp wearing a dark jacket standing in front of fans during a soccer match. Probably telling his players to FRAAB.

The only thing to save Spurs now: FRAAB

Laura Loomer - what the hell is this illegal alien farmowker non English shit on my TV. Someone call ICE.gov

Seeing fieldworkers produce their own histories, knowledge, narratives, and generally assert their power and voice over the world has been sugarcane plantation owners' greatest fear.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

Probably gonna skip listening to NPR on the way to work tomorrow morning...

Telling my students this was Simon Bolivar:

[You're actually better at using Excel than copilot is. Yes even you.]

PepsiCo sues four Indian farmers for using its patented Lay's potatoes PepsiCo Inc has sued four Indian farmers for cultivating a potato variety that the snack food and drinks maker claims infringes its patent, the company and the growers said on Friday.

PepsiCo in reality:

When you're grading AP exams and kids follow the Heimler/Freeman fill-in-the-blank strategies and get a 7/7 for the most boring, but rubrically correct DBQ you've ever read...

Who would have thought that not using your brain is bad for your brain.

So are we doing this or what??

Generalize your skeets. What’s your most typical, most average skeet?
