That’s what I was thinking. With what I pay in health ins premiums, co-insurance, medical bills, and procedures, taxes, no maternity leave, and more, they seem to be doing it right. As a teacher I looked quite a bit at their education system and their decentralized structure is the way to do it.

If their parents fill out the paperwork. And the qualifying income to get a free lunch is VERY low in Texas, for a family of 2 the maximum income the parent can make is $20,440 a year to qualify.

This past semester, one of my assignments was a short, personal opinion. I had several try to use AI for that. Either they lack the know how to write or care enough about their education to participate in it. I see critical thinking skills declining in my classroom in correlation. It’s sad honestly.

Bernie Sanders is currently 83 years old. Can we collectively drop the β€œrun Bernie” narrative? I’m a Bernie fan, but it’s time for a new generation.

Think I can decorate mine like my grandma decorated the porch goose in the 80s? Mine could stay in theme for each unit my students are learning. (I am only trying to find humor because I know this is not far fetched, it will be prob be next to the 10 commandments and constitution)

There is some kind of natural resource or mineral there that he is wanting to secure for mining/financial reasons or for military purpose due to location. I can’t think of any other purpose that he want it. He wanted to trade Puerto Rico for it in his first term, but has ramped up this time.

That’s exactly what I stated. I’m in Texas. I have to see an ENT. I called to schedule in August and my appointment is in November. It’s for a breathing issue, clearly nothing important. I live in Houston and she searched all 8 locations that had ENTs with the group. It’s not an amazing system

I get there was a lot to unpack in the texts and there are much more important details, but I want to know why we have a team at a golf club in Florida making war plans to thank.

Yeah, but you might have to wait a couple months to see a specialist! (Like we do now) They always automatically throw out these horror stories of Canada and subpar health care or month long waits. I have to see an ENT, they scheduled me for August… in November. What’s the difference?

I thought the same thing, upon re-entry if they don’t let me back in, would that really be a bad thing?? I don’t do well with cold weather, but I’m sure I would adapt. My kids have never seen snow. They would love that!

Exactly, smile, say good morning, and move on with your day. What anyone has in their underpants or does in their bedroom effects my life in zero way. I’ve never blinked twice in a restroom at anyone in there, because we’re in stalls…using the restroom. I don’t understand the politics of this issue.

I can’t wait to see what Trump uses that photo for, just to say he had a large crowd gathering in someplace like Pennsylvania.

He did make the deal to send our hockey team over to play the Russian hockey team, and then they get to come here to play! You know, priorities, right?

Ours in NE Houston have been some of the cheapest in the country according to my viral tiktok. They are $3.99 currently at Kroger in Humble, TX as of 3/18/25. This is the highest they have been. 1/5/25 they were $1.99 in my video.

James Bowman. We’re supposed to use names assigned at birth. I don’t want you to get in trouble.

They are firing Veterans and federal employees, to steal from veterans and the poorest, in order to give tax breaks to the richest Americans and corporations.

We looked but they are so expensive to insure in our area due to the rate of theft. Be sure to check that first.
