@AlHendiify Dude doesn't even make sense in his critique. What do two French loan words have to do with English phonics?
English
in their defense that is a dogshit sentence. "who is this for?" is absolutely right
شرقزده sharghzadeh@sharghzadeh
A large percentage of young people are functionally illiterate because schools abandoned phonics in favor of sight reading
English
@AggieWill00 Yeah why take an actionable, vocal stance on something when you can ineffectually whisper into the sky about it? Great idea.
English
It's not the time to pray for our troops safety? Good to know.
Tommy Vietor@TVietor08
No. Now is the time to call for an end to this disastrous war so no one else gets hurt or killed.
English
@JakeMunro You thought you really had something with that poignant vocal fry at the end, huh, dork?
English
@criminallyobese @thepix_elated @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 You honestly read this and think "if I write 650 words I will get 10 points?" That's what you get from this language?
English
@JeffUsesWords @thepix_elated @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 No, I do not think so, BUT THAT'S HOW THE RUBRIC WORKS. It's not up to your fallacious opinion on grading, that's how it works.
Imagine being this confidently incorrect..

A statement from the University of Oklahoma:
English
@thepix_elated @criminallyobese @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 No, it doesn't, dummy. It's not "graded on." It's a penalty for insufficiency. Did you even read the brief? You actually think someone should get credit just for writing enough words, regardless of merit? Turn your brain on, bud.
English
@JeffUsesWords @criminallyobese @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 That means reaching 650 is worth at least 1 point, dummy.
Otherwise it’s pointless to grade on.
English
@criminallyobese @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 You think "I will penalize you for failing to do something" is the same as "you will be rewarded for doing something?" You don't know how to read a brief. Got that.
English
English
@criminallyobese @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 Dude you're the one lying. The paper said deduct 10 points if under 650, not you get 10 if you meet it. It was a 25 point assignment. 10 points for clear tie-in to assigned reading (failed) 10 points for thoughtful reaction to assigned reading (failed) and 5 points for clarity
English
@RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 when following their rubric it still deserved 40% (which their rubric allowed for lazy abuse, I'll admit) but they didn't use their 'offense' to grade unfairly like Curth did.
English
@criminallyobese @RabidArtWorkRIP @marionumber4 I suppose you could argue she could have gotten a point in the last criterion considering she did manage to use punctuation? That was a zero paper.
English
@neeratanden @jazmin0809 You want a big tent party so long as it means bringing progressives to heel. Why wasn't your big tent also over Mamdani?
English
I bookmarked this so I could come back to it on Election Day and say-
Your election advice is kinda off.
Ryan Grim@ryangrim
The Democratic establishment loves to say the party needs to move to the center, as if they're not already there. In New Jersey and Virginia, deep blue states, they managed to nominate two national-security Dems who aggressively stand for nothing beyond poll-tested platitudes. So they should be cruising to victory, right? Instead Spanberger is barely ahead of a GOP nominee even Republicans think is a dud, and Mikie Sherrill is neck and neck in Jersey. gtfoh.

@CurtTHC @GoLongNotShort @Geiger_Capital You think defunding snap means you keep the money, genius? Your taxes aren't going to go down. Corporations will get more subsidies, billionaires will get richer, and kids will starve.
English
@GoLongNotShort @Geiger_Capital They aren’t taking out of investment accounts genius. It’s tax dollars taken from working Americans. Wake up.

“Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity.”
Wow… imagine how big the economy would be if we invested $10 TRILLION in SNAP!
This man was almost Vice President.
Governor Tim Walz@GovTimWalz
Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity. It’s not about the money, Trump just wants Americans to go hungry.
English
@Bubblebathgirl @atrupar He has three times the followers that you do on this site you seem to care about so much, you dumb douchebag.
English
@atrupar Aaron Rupar’s entire life is about taking quotes out of context.
He’s everything that’s wrong with legacy media.
That’s why they and he are such failures.

@Iridethedirt @TheLaurenChen @RealSalMinella 70% of SNAP recipients work full time jobs. The shame should be directed at the millionaires and billionaires that won't pay living wages. Try putting some social pressure on that, for once.
English
@TheLaurenChen @RealSalMinella At a certain point you just have to accept that there are always going to be unproductive members of society. Most of them have obvious disabilities but many do not. You want to make it shameful to be someone who CAN work but CHOOSES not to. Social pressure is best incentive.

12% of Americans are on foodstamps.
This is not sustainable.
Leading Report@LeadingReport
BREAKING: USDA will not tap emergency funds for food stamps, 40 million set to lose aid next week, per Axios.

@EllyKayUSA @the_jimmy_says Policies that she supports is such a disingenuous way to phrase this. Look at all these dead women due to policies Earle-Sears supports:
English
@the_jimmy_says Repulsive ideas? You know what I think's repulsive? Spanberger still supporting policies that permitted a registered s€x offender into public school locker rooms where he m@sterbated in front of little girls.
English
If Winsome Sears were a Democrat, she'd be on every magazine cover & mainstream media would be extolling her at every opportunity.
But since Sears has an (R) next to her name, they pretend she doesn't exist, & if Spanberger loses, it's due to misogyny. 🧐

Community colleges are typically two-year institutions that primarily offer associate degrees, certificates, and vocational programs, not bachelor's degrees. However, in recent years, a growing number of community colleges in about 24 states have started offering select four-year bachelor's degree programs, often in applied fields like nursing, teaching, or business to meet local workforce needs and provide more affordable options.

. @secwar "This admin. has done a great deal from day one to remove the social justice politically correct and toxic ideological garbage that had infected our department, to RIP OUT the politics...
No more identity months, DEI offices, dudes in dresses. No more climate change worship. No more division, distraction, or gender delusion...
As I said before and will say again, we are done with that shit."

@DOWResponse @SecWar Bring back the draft. 4 years of service = 4 years of community college. Make it happen @secwar

@erandegani @GavinNewsom Melissa Hortman's body was lying in state like 2 months ago, you dumb fuck. Political violence is a both sides problem.
English
The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible. In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

@ToddVercoe @ModestTeacher Notice how you used the word "learning" for each of those steps? Are you listening to yourself? Are you actually trying to say no learning happens until post-high-school? That's ridiculous.
English
@JeffUsesWords @ModestTeacher Nah. It’s a step in learning. This used to be common knowledge.
Primary Ed: learning the tools of learning
Secondary Ed: learning how to learn
Tertiary Ed: learning
English
@ToddVercoe @ModestTeacher It's all learning. Feynman's quote is a reductive platitude that allows people to feel superior for their further studying. If I memorize the periodic table I have learned the names of the elements, their atomic weights, their groups. It's all learning.
English
@ModestTeacher It’s a step. For certain. But not the learning part.
Like learning the shape of the letter “a” compared to writing.
English
@ModestTeacher Every response to that tweet is someone trying desperately to seem profound.

@bdomenech My kid did that like two months ago man what the hell are you talking about?

We deserve a capital city safe enough to let kids explore the Smithsonian.
