Yeah. It's bad. In case anyone can't see the writing on the wall, they are going to give everyone vouchers so that they can afford to leave public schools and go to private schools and then gut them later.
The vouchers will further tank public schools. Republicans will then be able to argue that public schools are failing, that attendance rates as abysmal, and they should shut down funding to them (and conservative voters will eat that shit up as their entire world view is based on sound bites they got from Fox News). I bet the voucher programs don't last much longer after that once there is no alternative.
An all powerful sky wizard can do whatever he wants. Imaginary Sky Daddy can be rendered in whatever way he see fits without people like you "defining" how he does and doesn't work.
It's all just goofy conjecture anyways used to control people. "Murder in the name of" and all that insanity.
This is fucked. They are allowing your tax dollars to be used for Christian Fundamentalist Schools. All that fear mongering about "brainwashing" your kids with CRT and the LGBT-agenda in public schools that never existed, and the Republicans are literally trying to push a religious agenda down the throats of this citizens of this state.
How long before girls are banned from the higher level STEM classes and instead required to take Home Ec and urged to be stay at home mothers and wives, you know, like Harrison Butker and his wife suggested?
We are fucking backsliding as a society....
"The court’s three liberal justices dissented from Wednesday’s order. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan indicated only that they would have denied the requests to put the federal court’s ruling on hold. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented, explaining that in her view it is too early for Purcell to apply and there was no reason for the Supreme Court to intervene at this stage."
No, they dissented due to, in their argument, a principle that they believe should not be used in this decision. They believe that this case should not have been decided by the Supreme Court and instead let the lower courts decision stay, that there was no reason for them to get them involved.
So, back to your main statement, do the "Dems" still want to change things up? Or was your statement perhaps a bit antagonistic and meant to rile up the next moron that lacks the ability to read and properly comprehend a news article?
Not sure where you got that from as the article states that the new set of plaintiffs are not black and are claiming that its racist.
From another article: "Nine days later, a group of 12 white voters went to a different federal court, where they argued that S.B.8 is an unconstitutional racial gerrymander – that is, it sorted voters based primarily on their race."
Please. By all means, explain where you got "the Dems" from this. Good luck!
When and where? You want Rule of Thumb, or do I get dealer's choice?
Everyone should have a Dremel. Damn thing is so useful.
Okay. I hate any music that references all of the following pandering terms: trucks, boots, whiskey, blue jeans, dirt, drinkin', beer, and. "back roads".
If you removed the lyrics from almost every modern US "Country" song, they wouldn't be so bad, by holy shit...it's like you can't have a country song without whiskey and blue jeans sung in an overdone Kentucky or Mid-Western accent. It's essentially fan service for country boys and girls. Half of those singers haven't touched so much as a rake in their entire lives and for some reason people make this genre their entire fucking identity.
I mean, it really shouldn't be off the table though. It's genuinely not a bad idea to at least balance the court. But, it should be regarded as sort of a "Last Ditch Effort" to save the court if it comes to it.
The Israeli Government can eat a bag of dicks. They brought this on themselves. They had every right to respond to the attack from Hamas and get their people back, but their response was... fucking abhorrent. They've wiped out the entire Gazan infrastructure. Their electric, sewage, water, their schools, universities, and hospitals. They destroyed so many homes that literally half the people are homeless. They've humiliated, tortured, maimed, and murdered men, women, and children.
Israel's response was horrific. They used this attack on Israel as an opportunity to ethnically cleanse Gaza. I'm glad that the rest of the world could come together and agree that this was totally wrong.
Yeah, they really went in hard with Suicide Squad, to be perfectly frank, the only good thing to come out of suicide squad was the Peacemaker show on HBO.
Real men don't wipe. Real men leave that brown shit of superiority staining their ass and underwear. It's a display of dominance. Show that washing machine whose boss. Let your wife and girlfriend see the proud steak of freedom, a signature of your manliness written upon the very fabric of the garments you wear closest to your body.
Watch men of weaker constitution and lower stature run away from you, and give you the space and respectful deference that you deserve. You are a king, and kings don't worry about such literal shit.
Let it eventually mark your truck seat as warning to weaker men what sort of beast occupies that vehicle and you will never again have to worry about criminal scum trying to take your vehicle for fear of your retribution, for they bore witness to the throne upon which a real man resides.
Weird that a policy article has a thumbnail of random steak....it's not even mentioned in the article.
Fuck yeah! Go students!
Look at what you guys can accomplish when you protest!

My local board game shop sells Nemesis lockdown and I'm trying to decide if I should buy it or not. The game looks awesome, however, it's a little pricey.
Heard some people state that lockdown was a little harder to learn, and then they'd recommend newer players learn the original prior to getting the lockdown version.
I did have a few other questions about it though. Do the expansions work with lockdown? Is there any additional player expansions that you can add on to it? We have a gaming group regularly with 5 to 7 people, it'd be really nice if we could fit those additional two people on.
