Warren Redlich - Chasing Dreams 🇺🇸

Then a rocket landed itself. Someone decided the limit everyone else accepted wasn't real. Someone bet against the obvious and won. … But first I had to call my mom. Dropping out wasn't just my decision — it was undoing the thing she crossed an ocean for. I called her and told her I wanted to leave school to do startups. She was quiet for a long time. Then, in her own way, she said: Go chase it. Chase your American Dream. … One day I'm going to tell her she doesn't have to work anymore. One day I'm going to watch her rest. She's given me everything. Now it's my turn to grind my ass off.

3 hour poll. Do you want the Jews kicked out of America?

Just had a guy that I’ve known for 2 weeks tell me he’s in love with me… like what 😭 Men… please don’t do this lol

Is this guy a liar or just stupid? The screenshot he posted contains the article's thesis: to end the threat Iran poses to every US base and its chokehold a fifth of the world's energy, we must crush the missile and drone teams. Everything else is secondary.

TIL weed is legal for medical use in Thailand. There are cannabis dispensaries on the streets! I had lazily assumed all East Asia and SEA were near uniformly hardcore on drugs.

Walk into just about any gym in the world and you’ll see someone BADLY screwing up Cable Crunches Most are just moving weight from Point A to Point B with no intent THIS right here is what your Cable Crunches SHOULD look like if you actually want to challenge your Abs:

🚨 SHE HAPPILY PAYS $3,175 A MONTH FOR A 350 SQ FT APARTMENT IN NYC — AND CALLS IT A “DEAL” — WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE INSIDE A woman just showed her NYC apartment… and you can basically see the entire place the second you walk in. Only ONE real window. No washer or dryer. Barely any storage. They had to add their own kitchen island… build extra storage… and stack shoes wherever they fit just to make it livable. She says she uses artificial lighting just to make it feel brighter… and hauls laundry down the street every week. And somehow… this is considered a “deal.” She says renovated units in the same building go for over $4,000/month. The part that’s blowing people’s minds? She says she loves it… and doesn’t want to leave. At what point does “living in New York” stop being the dream… and start feeling like you’re paying luxury prices to live in a box?

When I first retired, I served as a middle school substitute teacher. I lasted one semester. The pay was $85 a day. If you had a “teaching certificate” it was $125. I have a MS, was writing my PhD dissertation, had a 40 year career, had been a soldier, politician, and business executive, even a CEO twice. I got $85. Basically $10 an hour. I was forced to take “training” that taught we should never discipline. If a student acted out, it was our fault and we had to give them something else to do which would interest them and then they’d behave. Try that in a class of 25 when you’ve been called in that morning and have no lesson planned. Good luck. I made the mistake of expecting the kids to listen and then do their own work. That’s when I was gently reprimanded and shown how you had to do the work for the kids. They just were to copy what you wrote. There was literally an overhead projector where the kids could see my hand writing on the page. They’d copy what I wrote onto their ridiculous ditto sheets. That way everyone could get a 100%. And don’t get me started on those ditto sheets. Mostly it was woke nonsense and DEI influenced versions of reality. In history, for example, minor characters and events were elevated while major ones ignored based on “inclusion.” All of it, regardless of subject, was aimed at the least capable students. I learned that the “special needs” kids were just there. I wasn’t to expect anything from them as they had their own teacher (1 per child) who did anything they wanted. I’m not sure why they were in my classroom, as we didn’t interact with them at all. I suspect it was all for show. I learned there was no way to rid the class of the unruly, indisciplined, and poorly socialized kids. You could send them to the office, but they’d be right back the next day, maybe even the same day. Short of an actual crime, they could never be removed from the school. They ran the place, and the empathetic, nearly 100% female staff, catered to them. They knew their names, and basically kissed their a**es to get them to cooperate even a little. Other kids, who wanted to learn, sat silent and nameless, while the teacher focused, by necessity, on those few who refused to do any work or behave in a civil manners. These few disrupted every attempt at real learning. Every minute of every day was frustrating chaos. Half the kids were functionally illiterate. Very little of substance was being taught. We needed men in public education fifty years ago. I fear it’s too far gone by now. You should homeschool. I teach college now.
