@KnowingBetterYT That's a lie. Not every public school kid takes the SAT or ACT. Even when isolated for the college-bound variables homeschoolers still outperform their public school counterparts.

This isn't true and the fact that homeschool parents still tout this is embarassing.
Homeschool kids, in most states, are required to take zero tests.
Only college bound homeschool kids end up taking them. Whereas every public school student does.
This is called sampling bias.

Homeschooled students frequently outperform public school students on the SAT by 15 to 30 percentile points higher than public school public school students. Check out something called "unschooling" and ask yourself why any kids go to school in the first place. Not homeschooling. "Unschooling" is where the kids don't go to school and they're not homeschooled either; they just kind of do whatever they want. yes-i-can-write.blogspot.com/2010/02/how-i-…

@RealExanimalus @Porkchop_EXP @3LandObserver That has zero to do with the available amount of farmland and you know it.

@Aderius267 @Porkchop_EXP @3LandObserver Yea and look what happened 90% of food is chemically put together.

Why is it so hard for Americans to understand we simply DON’T HAVE SPACE in Europe??
American large homes are a function of space availability. Even poor people in the US live in large houses on huge properties because they are cheap.
Check and compare our population density to the US ffs. Large homes like this exist in Europe but they cost 5x-7x what they cost in the US so of course only the ultra rich can afford them.

An engaged parent is far more important to the educational success of a child than any amount of training or certification your child's teacher has. The rate of parental engagement in homeschool far surpasses that of public schooled kids.

So many incels calling them 5s but they can’t be. 5 is the median. The median American woman is overweight. None of these women are overweight. So they must be at least 6’s. Lina’s right to put the average at 7.

@peachfuzzgirl He was asleep on his couch inside his own home. Prove the door wasn't closed. She violated him and cried victim.
English
when a woman is victimized it’s always “well there’s no proof” but when she took it into her own hands to get video evidence now HE’S the victim. no matter what women will always be blamed

@euromaximal @boxyslides My groceries are delivered to my door. Fuck your cities.
English
@boxyslides No really. I usually just buy groceries for a few days, except for a few shelf staples. Also better for fresh fruit and vegetables.

One of the reasons why living in Europe is so much better than North America is that cities are built for people, not cars.
European cities, besides being beautiful, provide all amenities at walking distance. Groceries, shops, cafes, restaurants, entertainment. All nearby.
They are also a lot better to build families and communities. Children can walk to school, live near their friends, and enjoy a variety of activities close by. Adults can also form long-term bonds with neighbours, shopkeepers and visit relatives frequently (and also easily dump their kids with their grandparents for some needed rest).
Our cities are built to be seen and enjoyed, while america-style suburbs feel soulless and dystopian. We should keep it that way.

@euromaximal I don't want to be stacked in medium density housing. My biggest problem with the left image is that the houses are too close. I need at least a 3 minute walk to the closest house to me. If not more.

@HughGriffin2 Not giving credit card processors 3% of your business isn't tax evasion.

I do love it when small businesses have these signs loudly declaring "yes we are COOKERS, yes we are engaging in TAX EVASION"

Red button pressers not understanding that the question has everyone already on the tracks
English
@Shark08yy @doxntme Everyone pressing blue is assumed mentally disabled already. You don't have to be redundant
English
@Aderius267 @doxntme scenarios Red is the wrong choice, because of toddlers, senile, mentally disabled, etc. There WILL ALWAYS be INNOCENT jumping onto the tracks or remaining on the tracks, depending on the framing. So the whole thing just tests for if you’re smart enough to comprehend their 3/?
English
What is it with red button pushers rewriting the question, like you're presenting an entirely different scenario
Rock Solid@ShitpostRock2
Dumbest fucking hypothetical ever posted
English
@Shark08yy @doxntme You scenario is still step off and live or stay on and risk death. In no way you frame it are red pushers responsible for your assumed risk. Just press red and live. It's not that hard.
English
@Aderius267 @doxntme existence, and if yes, if you’re willing to risk yourself for them. It tests for intelligence and a firefighter or „save your own ass“ mindset. Red button pushers expose themselves as either stupid or selfish, in some cases both. 4/4

@VitoComedy @KatanaBets Blue pressers openly admit pressing blue is stupid and that the reason they press blue is to save the stupid people who pressed blue.

@KatanaBets The fact that more stupid people exist than smart people does not mean the smart people are wrong

You are in a room with 99 other people, and an industrial people crushing machine
Everyone must secretly choose whether or not to get under the crusher. If more than fifty people are under the crusher, it will malfunction and break, killing no one
Do you get under the crusher?
English
@VitoComedy Why is anyone volunteering to go under the crusher in the first place.

@generalquixote @AlfLandonFan36 We've got 10 different ways to heat water that are also capable of other kitchen functions but sure we're backwards for not buying yet another single use appliance.
English
@AlfLandonFan36 I see it frequently. And tbf US outlets being too weak for kettles is a kinder theory than the real reason you lot don’t use them much, which is that you’re simply too backwards
English
Sorry but Americans regularly go on here and insist there isn't free drinking water anywhere in Europe, Americans are far worse at doing this stuff

europeans log on twitter and say some shit like “AMERICANS DON’T HAVE BREAD IN GROCERY STORES??” with 100% seriousness like what are you talking about

@NapoleonBonabot Everyone pressing blue has a savior complex. They must save everyone despite the fact their pushing of the blue button is the very thing people must be saved from.
English
>Red: guaranteed survival
>Blue: survival only if enough people press blue
Am I losing my mind? Why do so many people see blue as the favorable option?
MrBeast@MrBeast
Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.
