Trump banned indoctrination in education, resulting in shit jokes and some sneeding from r-slurs like these:

This is precisely why I, a closeted transgender grad student a year away from my teaching certificate, have been contemplating unaliving myself. There is no way I can legally and safely be happy in this lifetime anymore.

It's not worth it with legal avenues removed, never able to change documents, being discriminated against and witch-hunted.

Should do it, and is an unironic threat to children.

Scary stuff for a Health teacher because I actually do teach about sexuality and gender. It's not my whole job, but it is part of it, and the curriculum we use is very lgbtq+-friendly.

Wonder where parents are getting the idea that gays are out to indoctrinate their kids into being gay... :marseywrongthink:

The sub has a few posts on this shit, it got some insane "im such a dramatic hero" posters and a few breaking that circlejerk to actually comment on why the EO happened.

https://old.reddit.com/r/Teachers/comments/1id7zua/update_to_my_previous_post_the_executive_order_on/?sort=controversial

I hope my trans students know I'll go down swinging for them :/ i hate that shits gone backwards since i was in highschool, we got to celebrate gay marriage being legalized and obama and biden running through the whitehouse with pride flags. They get to experience being fear mongered scapegoats for people to direct their misguided hate towards, all with the guise of "protecting kids". Just wait for those suicide rates to go up higher.

Trans kids are not the result of him pushing them in that direction at all, totally normal development...

We need a national walkout. ASAP. Between the immigration bullshit and the trans students, they want to turn us all into deliverers of a different sort of indoctrination that doesn't value, honor, or respect the individual rights of our students, and will absolutely turn us into criminals for being safe spaces.

Literally the next MLK in the making bros

Favorite so far:

This is not a cost saving measure. This is a purge of federal employees who do not support their agenda. The first round is incentivized volunteer resignations. The second round will be forced resignations. The third round will be outright firings. This is a comprehensive takeover of the federal government by the MAGA organization. This is round one of a pervasive attack on the American Republic.

They are following the NAZI playbook from the 1930's.

The OLIGARCHY

They are looking for cuts to pass trumps tax plan. Which will greatly enrich the rich and cripple the poor, weaken or eliminate the middle class.

What is it you think he is doing? Where do you think the money stolen from us will go? It's tax money, all our money going to the rich, 2'trillion at least. The deficit…trump blew it up round 1. Round 2 he will kill the deficit. And YOU and EVERYONE you know will pay for it for the rest of our lives.

Some reasonable people too, maybe redditoids aren't beyond saving:

I appreciate you being open to the conversation. The challenge lies in your last sentence where you state "Convince me that cutting wasteful spending is a bad idea." You're already convinced that all of this spending is wasteful. We are not.

We see value in the DOE as a vehicle to assist in equalizing access to education for all. Without this funding, kids in poor areas will not have access to the resources they need to be successful in school. In the most impoverished places, property tax is not adequate - many are renting, in section 8, or perhaps homeless and the property tax collected does not scale with the student population in those environments. Do you believe that all kids, regardless of the socioeconomic class they are born into, deserve a shot at education? We do. But the states alone are not able to provide that, particularly red states who are the biggest beneficiaries of this funding.

For a chatgpt post that took me 5 minutes to write, I've so far generated at least 1000 words, I'm hoping before the post dies I can generate enough to write a short book

Yes, you read that correctly. He presented an award on an online award show for the worst game of the year. Clutch your pearls preemptively: the nominees were 4 universally agreed on bad games.

Did James make the decision about what games to have on here. It does not seem like it. BUT HE PRESENTED IT!

Oh yeah, this is somehow g*mergate, because we can't ever let the thing that happened over a decade ago die

This hurts bigly for all the 10 remaining fans of the 40+ year old who calls old games shitty poop farts

Should we even be complaining about this? Think of the dozens of extra views it might get from ResetERA referrals!

Thinking that it's dumb to complain about a shit game gettting a bad game award from a literally who tier youtuber? THAT'S A PADDLIN'

Nobody would have known what a NES or Atari 2600 was without AVGN

the dejenerate podcast - bad things happen to bad people 9:53

• This has been amusing Jinxthinker all day. Basically Jim Cornette's dog died (I assume this has something to do with wrestling because he's on /pw/). He got energy drinks and jelly beans from the shop, and the shop guy was new.

• 1:00 it's okay to be mean to Jim because he's just getting his just deserts. We look at /pw/ comments. Right right right.

• 1:50 He responds "one less b-word but he's still got his wife who also probably has fleas & is more filthy than his dog, she's unkempt, fat & less hygienic"

• 3:10 AI navis are back. Jinxthinker has been fiending for alien c*nt because it's superior or just as good as emo women.

• 3:50 The libertarian crew is messed up, right? Jinxthinker is a heroine addict for adult women.

• 4:20 Jinxthinker is unsure what day it is. It might be friday or saturday.

• 4:50 Jinxthinker "cuts a promo" on Jim

• 5:10 There was a person that went undercover on a Columbian or Argentinan child s*x trafficking site

• 5:40 what would happen if Jinxthinker started sieg heiling and swasticking

• 6:00 Jinxthinker will stick to adults, thank you. If he took a screwdriver and fricked up his brain to become a libertarian, he'd be 2nd only to Hitler.

• 6:40 No dogs, no children, no pokemon

• 7:05 Jinxthinker the first time he saw an emo girl at school.

• 7:40 According to science (a tv show) said that the peak age of women is either 23 or 27. Talks about Liv Morgan and other wrestlers.

• 9:00 It's cheesecake city the way people are getting their just deserts. Jinxthinker ated burgers today with doritos crumbled up on top. Tomorrows dinner will be different or maybe Sunday's dinner will be.

!jinxthinkers you probably have fleas and are more filthy than your dog, you're unkempt, fat & less hygenic

I'm going to be real, probably a 2/10 jinxthinker vlog.

what is freestyle chess?

it is a variant created by the legendary racist bobby fischer where the last rank is shuffled up, tossing the opening prep out of the window.

FIDE, the big boss of chess, thinks they're the only ones who can use "World Championship". Freestyle Chess Players Club wanted to call their tournament a "World Championship" too, but FIDE wasn't having it. They told players to sign a waiver to stay cool with FIDE events if they played in Freestyle.

Things got spicy with both sides throwing shade. FIDE's CEO, Emil Sutovsky, said Freestyle Chess was just protecting the elite players. Freestyle Chess hit back, saying FIDE was pressuring players and even called for the FIDE president to step down.

After all the drama, Freestyle Chess agreed to drop "World Championship" from their promo stuff for the next 10 months. This was a move to keep things chill for a bit.

they are planning tennis like tour and F1 like point system.

the first Grand Slam 2025 Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Weissenhaus is going on rn. semifinals would start from tomorrow. would you like to bet?

tourney drama

magnus initially performed mediocre during the round robin phase, leading to people declaring him washed. currently he's playing games at 98% accuracy while eating fruits (banana)

caruana is rumored to have studied all 960 opening maps and has put the current FIDE world champ Gukesh in his place through straight upperhand matchups

sindarov, the last minute entrant, runner up of the qualifier has been upsetting people left & right. he even chose the tough matchup hikaru (the legendary streamer) for the quarterfinal, shocking everyone. currently playing the tiebreaker

prince ali, the topper of the round robin. current playing vincent (the weakest pick) and is losing lmao. edit: bozo lost

The Tuxedo, 2x broken ribs, an injured paw, and some lacerations. After a night in the hospital, he is expected to make a full recovery. The same can't be said for the pibbles.

The velvet hippo wouldn't surrender its new play toy and turned on me when I tried to intervene. I gave the pibbles all 5 tines of a farmer's pitchfork. I lifted the bloody beast up and carried it to the barn. I wedged the handle in the dirt and pinned the velvet hippo to the barn.

It's like a Mortal Kombat fatality

With the pibbles elevated off the ground and skewered to the barn, it was no longer a threat. I then attended the injured cat.

The deceased pibbles had a collar. I notified the police. Animal control came out to make a report and take some pictures. The look on the officers face when she saw the pibbles pinned the barn was priceless. "Mother Fu*k, that's not something you see every day!"

The owner of the pitbull was charged for owning a dangerous dog at large and threatening public safety. Armed with the police report, I am now hiring an attorney and filing a lawsuit against the pibbles owner.

Also, I contacted the owner of the property whom I've known for decades. The tenants were not permitted to have a dog on the rental property. To avoid a second lawsuit, targeting the property owner, the landlord is evicting the tenants for violating the lease agreement.

I have no idea what the frick is going on at BPB lately. It used to have a stronger relationship to trolling (remember #PitBullDropoff?) before evolving into paranoid true crime foidery (would you rather meet a man or a pit bull in the forest?). At this point it just seems to be a place for surreptitiously getting off to animal violence. Lots of "pit bull gets kicked in the head by a horse" type videos. More recently people have started posting their badass 100% true stories about how they or their pets killed pibbles.

Kill pibbles. Behead pibbles. Roundhouse kick a pibble into the concrete. Skewer pibbles with a pitchfork.
