@followmeinstead @twentyonepilots Definitely!!! I think the boys are planning to go as torchbearer and Clancy because literally their friendship is like Josh and Tyler, so his buddy may have a knit hat on, but maybe not the entire time. 😆

Hoping we can score tix for these two guys to see The Only Band In The World! They will have to come up with new alter egos for entrance to the show, but it will be worth it for the crowning jewel of senior yr memories. Their friendship is so Josh/Tyler |-/ #pleaseplaydeepcuts

@abigail_normal_ @megbasham You’re not going to win this one so why don’t we just agree that political violence from either side against the other is bad?

@ostrachan I sent your article to my husband because I saw the movie twice (once with the director‘s edition playing in my ears, which was confusing, but interesting) and read the book once and he keeps saying it is “disturbing.” Makes me sad he won’t watch it and see the absolute beauty.

Exciting news: art doesn't have to make you feel AWFUL to be artistic. Art can lift you up, encourage you, and inspire you. That's actually what art *should* do--that's why God gave us aesthetic capacity. Art is not for debasing humanity; art is for ennobling humanity.

"Project Hail Mary" is a film that reverberates with redemptive power. Here are four reasons why it is a truly beautiful film. New essay: owenstrachan.substack.com/p/the-redempti…

@mattvanswol @ksorbs You can do it! It mostly takes willpower and love for your kids and what is best for them. Better if you live in a state where it isn’t as difficult, but it can be done! I regret nothing. Homeschooled pre-k through 9th for our oldest and 12th will be part homeschooled part uni.

@mattvanswol @ksorbs I am in the thick of it. We tried a school for last year and pulled our younger child out this year from bullying and our older child has two more weeks of part time (he was full time, but due to a teacher misconduct issue with him we dropped two classes). Homeschooling it is!

Hey Matt, ever thought of homeschooling? Might be time to make the switch.
Matt Van Swol@mattvanswol

I just got a phone call from my kid's school. They have cancelled his classes for this Friday, May 1st so that school staff can go protest. I'm so pissed. Every parent I know is scrambling for childcare right now, trying to take off work, they have NO IDEA what they are going to do. How does this happen?! How can they just cancel school for my kid so they can play activist when they should be teaching him TO READ AND DO MATH?! This may be our last straw... Homeschooling feels inevitable at this point. I'm so sick of this... I've been holding my toungue but I will do so no longer. If you want to fix the public schools, you are going to have to do the hard things that NOTHING in this protest will do: 1) DEPORT ALL THE ILLEGAL ALIENS and funding per AMERICAN student will increase DRASTICALLY How do I know? Because when ICE came to Charlotte NC, guess how many kids didn't show up to school? 30,000 kids. Yes, nearly 20% of ALL KIDS didn't show up to school because of ICE, so what does that tell you about how many illegal aliens we have going to our public schools in this country? 2) DRASTICALLY DEFUND THE ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF. There are HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE in school administration in North Carolina right now making $200,000-$315,0000. Guess what? None of them are teachers. Guess which positions in schools have grown in the past 10 years? Number of students: 2.5% increase Number of teachers: 2.2% increase Number of administrators: 45% increase Number of consultants: 107% increase You want to pay teachers more? Great, then you now know EXACTLY where to look. Because the "middle-management" for North Carolina schools grew 20x FASTER than the student population, so there's a good place to start. Sorry for the rant... I've been patient. I've been engaged. I've gone to the meetings. I've read the emails. I've donated, a LOT. I'm really close to just being done. If the public school system thinks canceling class so the adults can go to a rally is acceptable, then the public school system has told me exactly what it values. And it isn't my kid.

Any recommendations for a quality book series for a soon-to-be 15 year-old girl that are enjoyable to read and aren’t woke, perverse, or otherwise cruddy in content? She has enjoyed books like Nancy Drew, Wingfeather Saga, and Chronicles of Narnia in the past.

@niakatza @redheadranting I am reading it now! I love all the more in depth background info!! There is no way my daughter could have dealt with the death of his companions, though, so I am always quick to warn about it. She may have done ok with Rocky if I let her know he doesn’t die.

I saw Project Hail Mary this afternoon and I can't recommend it enough. It was delightful - wonderfully funny - the kind of movie they haven't made in decades - like since the 70s. There was no swearing, not woke, no agenda, no underlying lecture - just a great story that left you feeling alive at the end. If you have grandkids of any age bring them to this movie - it will be an event they remember for the rest of their lives.

@niakatza @redheadranting What I have told people (2x viewer) is the scene where he wakes up and finds dead desiccated companions could be scary for a sensitive kid as could when you think the alien is dead. A kid was still crying 20 mins later. I love the movie and will watch it many more times!

@CoxonMark @mattvanswol @realchasegeiser @LABeachGal1 Socialization thing is complete nonsense. Everyone who meets my almost 18 year old says great things about him. Education-wise you could always do online schooling at Veritas Scholars Academy or a similar place. Great teachers and community, despite being online. High rigor.

I am still trying to convince my wife to homeschool. We’re paying $19k a year for kindergarten because our public schools are literally among the worst in the country. Anyone have advice on how to get the spouse over the hump? Her main fear is socialization and not wanting him to “fall behind”

I pay 1,000 dollars a month to send my daughter to catholic school to protect her from woke bullshit. I just went to her first recital where the kids are singing the theme song from the musical Rent, about how many minutes are left in a year in the context of being diagnosed with aids. What the actual fuck.

@mattvanswol @realchasegeiser @LABeachGal1 We have homeschooled, online school, then private hybrid homeschool, found it to be only slightly better than public, pulled younger child, homeschooling again and will supplement with online schooling. Older child finishes next year and will do online high school and college 🤪

@ThrillaRilla369 My husband was not. His parents still never say I love you. My son and I were talking about it yesterday and he said we should just start saying it to them Because it is true. My parents were affectionate and we still say I love you. My husband adopted the behavior of my family.

@elonmusk My dad went blind in one eye two weeks after the second pfizer shot. Stroke in his eye. Cleveland clinic found zero causality. He was one of the healthiest 69 year olds you could meet. We all knew what it was.

@JoelWBerry After living in Oklahoma for 21 years, it is so hard to go back to the Cleveland area and shop or something. People look at me like I am nuts when I talk to them. It’s super refreshing when one of them converses with me, though! It definitely happens, but not like in OK.

I’m not used to all this southern friendliness. It makes me short-circuit. A lady at the store said “Hi there!” and I said “pretty good, how about you?”
