Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I'm not 100% sure full parliamentary is the way to go but "He's batshit crazy but we got to let him keep cooking for 2 more years because that's the number they came up with 250 years ago when they were brainstorming how to make this work" doesn't seem like the wisest strategy. 010
Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 10/10/2026We say "kick out" for "leave the room"- came from shortening "I'm kicking you out" when my kids were in my office and I had to work. As in, "That was fun, but kick out. It's past bedtime." 050

Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I was told that by my (American, very gullible) mother when I was little. Pretty sure she heard it from her (Irish) father, who I've only just now put together that he may have been actively lying to her rather than "mistaken"... *hangs Yank head in shame* 110
Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Apparently Alabama has just passed a law requiring all schools, journalists, etc to use Gulf of America on all maps, textbooks, etc moving forward. Why oh why are we trapped in this stupid fucking timeline???? Who asked for this? And why on Earth does anyone in AL give a shit??? 000

Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Hey all! Beware of new policies at Citi with credit cards! They deactivated my son's card without telling anyone because they decided everyone needs a separate card number. My 16 year old is trapped an hour away with no way to get gas and is horrifically embarrassed and frightened. Awesome! 000
Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It is WILDLY frustrating to have students work so hard on their college essays & then have their parents pick fights w/them trying to get them to use AI at the end Do you know what message this sends to a kid who has poured their heart onto a page? When your final word is, "go ahead and cheat"? 030

We are being priced out of normal every day regular basic lives. A house, car, groceries, childcare, insurance. These weren't extravagant expenses 20 years ago. Not even 15 years ago. 16318

Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Ack! Typo! .0435 originally. You move the decimal two places to the left to convert 010
Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Ignore the decimals when you're multiplying, and then put them back in at the end. You have 4 digits total behind decimal points in the original numbers, so you'll have 4 digits behind decimals here (except, you also didn't convert the % to decimal...so you should've multiplied .00435 originally) 110
Megan Macmanus @meganmacmanus.bsky.social · 05/09/2026When you add up the rows, go column by column- so that 5 in the first row gets added to the 0s below it,the 9 the same, etc etc. so you should end up with 1295 (followed by zeros) 210
