California took about 38 days to finalize the counting of mail-in votes for the 2024 presidential election, with the official results being certified on December 16, 2024.

They had to keep adding votes to get the nation's popular vote closer to undo the mandate.

Welp, it sure went quiet.

Wait until you find out that the methodologies we have been using for decades in thousands of public schools across the country don’t teach students how to read.

Things were shitty before covid, but that experiment has really ramped up stupidity.

My wife teaches 5th grade at a rural 90% white, 5% black, 5% Hispanic. Her current class was in kindergarten when covid hit and they stayed home for the next six months.

These kids learned through a keyboard at home and when they made it back to school their teachers were wearing masks. A full 25% of them can't read and nothing is being done about it. The system is teaching the same curriculum they were seven years ago. They are just going through the motions. There isn't time to backtrack. They have to keep moving forward.

It's just sad. I think it's the feature, not a bug. If we are all stupid, does it matter who is properly credentialed or who occupies each job?

…and that pic of her is pre bull dyke. Show a pic of years of having a Wife and losing custody of her first two children.

You may be right. I just thought I saw another angle where he was holding a cell phone. I may have assumed it was a cell phone though.

Not to be too much of a smart arse, but why not both?

The cellphone would be easier to text vid on the spot.

How about no.

Who are these f-ers to cancel anything?

I'll agree with that, but this is her story:

Actress Kate Beckinsale has a chronic condition called Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), which causes allergy-like symptoms and can flare up due to stress, shock, and grief, leading to severe issues like a recent stress-related tear in her esophagus (Mallory-Weiss tear) that caused significant weight loss and a six-week hospitalization in 2024. She openly shares her struggles with MCAS and other health issues, including a ruptured ovarian cyst in 2019, to raise awareness.

Napoles was previously known as Desmond Is Amazing, the drag name they performed under for many years. Since first hitting the stage, they’ve founded the first drag house for youth, walked the runway at New York Fashion Week, been an outspoken advocate for LGBTQ youth, and even met RuPaul at DragCon. And while Napoles says these years as Desmond Is Amazing have been crucial in shaping their identity, they’re moving forward. On the precipice of their 17th birthday, Napoles prefers to be known as Desi, and is focusing on their activism, on graduating from high school, and on expressing themself away from the stage.

While they didn’t officially stop doing drag until 2020, Napoles says they started to rethink it in middle school.

“After I entered middle school, it was like, I may not be doing drag. Then I found the term gender fluid and it really stuck with me,” they say. “That’s how I ended up identifying.”
