In reality, undergrad net tuition education has been stagnant or even declining for roughly two decades. So why do very few people know this? www.chalkbeat.org/2026/10/01/w... 84313

And he’s not done smiling yet (Gift Article)For years, Towns heard he was too soft to win. Now an NBA champion, he's savoring the vindication — and the joy that got him here. 411222
Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I mean yes. But it is surprising to me that blue state AGs haven’t sued. Seems like the kind of thing someone aspiring to higher office might do. 000
Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Given the (to me) incomprehensibly muted response to all the OpenAI and Anthropic hacking disclosures and apocalyptic talk from their CEOs, I find myself morbidly wondering what it would take for governments to start applying the law to these firms. 1140

Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I am not criticizing, because not everyone can do this, but this is why I've basically gone 100% to paper in my classrooms. I still do grades and attendance on the portal but only because I'm basically required. 000

Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Isn’t this why government exists? To protect the common good against rogue actors who hurt society in their pursuit of narrow self-interest? 021

Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Lots of people around the world - South Americans, Asians, Africans - have their own fine, racist distinctions in which some people are better than others by birth. What they don’t understand is white supremacists don’t care. They will gladly murder or enslave everyone not 100% not N. European. 110

Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 27/09/2026It’s weird that exercise gets to market itself as miserable when education always has to be “effortless”. Both require effort and are hard. Why would we think that’s ok with muscles but not the brain? 020
Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I’m not trying to avoid this song. I’m just old with young kids. It’s not a flex. Also I just listened to it on Apple Music and it’s fine but not obviously different from lots of pop country songs. If that statement seems objectively wrong to you just remember what I already said: I’m old. 000
Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I am in my 40s. My kids aren’t very old. I only listen to NPR. I don’t have cable. Thats enough that Ive never heard this song. It’s not hard or weird. 100
Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Why would I need to study history? [Looks around at the past 10 years of voters vigorously repeating the mistakes of the 20th century with predictably terrible results.] Oh. You know. 011

Lembas Eater @waybread.bsky.social · 26/09/2026My school’s online platform changed all the tabs to start with “My”. Like “MyAcademics” and “MyServices” which, in addition to making it harder to quickly find want is just stupid. If I’m logged in whose academics and services would they be? Anyway administration was very excited about this change. 010
