what I’m hearing is that a combination of kpop fans and native oklahomans bought up rally tickets to get trump’s expectations up, all with no intention of attending, is that what is happening right now, because if that is true, that rules

I’m teaching high school writing. at my high school. yesterday, a kid not in my class wanted to chat.
he said “I hate trump because he’s given these fake liberal white people the confidence to act as if they’re oppressed.”
I will never stop teaching high school until I die.

my guy coates saw the morning show ambush coming and was READY. so so inspirational, to gain access and then make them feel betrayal when you don’t play their games.
Ta-Nehisi Coates’ new book, “The Message,” is a trio of interconnected essays that examine how the stories people tell — or avoid telling — can shape and even distort reality: “I am most concerned always with those that don’t have a voice.” cbsn.ws/4gJxe2g

Garth went straight for Pence, almost forgot about Kamala, and then hugged Barack and Michelle without his mask on. All while in wranglers. A truly incredible 25 seconds.

i don't know the science behind this, but my hottest take is that philadelphia moves every 3 months. i don't know how they're pulling it off, but sometimes it's half hour from nyc, one time it was below delaware, and one time it just wasn't even there. wild place.

To the liberal stalwarts who said:
"Give him a chance"
"Ready to work with him"
"He just started, give it time"

i'd watch 100 episodes of the show "Oprah Surprises Famous Black People Who Never Thought They'd Meet Oprah"
Here’s what we did. We took a celebrity, @TiffanyHaddish, and we surprised her with her hero, @Oprah. This is how it went.

my mother was a professor in ‘75 & got arrested for defending her students. Many of her colleagues distanced themselves & a black lawmaker tried to get her fired. She’s the one who taught me that some of the people that hate kids the most end up in academia. Power to the people.
