So much for the free market, huh?

Would it be possible, in the formatting bar below the text boxes, to have a button that will automatically create a link to an instance or communities? (And usernames now that I think about it?) I keep forgetting and having to look up the exact formatting for each of them. Thank you!

Pizza and weed sounds like a good business model, tbh

It's like when someone tells me something is unbreakable. It becomes my mission to come up with a way of breaking it.

Now, I may just be a man, but the woman's arms on that last one don't look quite right. Is someone else holding the swords for her?

Maybe... Maaaaaayyyyyyybeeeee the Democrats need to nominate someone who is actually worth getting excited about instead of just being not-Trump.

Social studies teacher here. Aside from the obvious church/state problems with this, there might be an easy way around it for teachers: put up a poster with a dollar bill on it. Less conspicuous, still follows the letter of the shitty law.

Teacher here. I'm fucking speechless. What kind of people remove a library and claim it as a win? The only people who do that are shooting for authoritarian regimes where the people are kept stupid.

Teacher here. Kids want the quick dopamine hit from their phones and their school-supplied chromebooks. They do not want to take the time to try something that might be hard, and they do not want to stretch their brains at all

Someone told me that if I wanted to be a history teacher I should get a degree in special Ed to "make myself more marketable." It took 14 years to get out of special education and land a job teaching history

History teacher here. If this was turned in to me, rhe first thing I'd do is laugh, then have a conversation with the student. If s/he says they'd be ok with me emailing a copy of this to their parents (I'm assuming the parents speak Chinese), then I'd just give them an A for pure gall. If the kid isn't from a Chinese-speaking family, I'd probably still give him/her kudos and then make them turn in whatever they put into Google translate to begin with. But really, this is the kind of malicious compliance I wish my students had the creativity to pull off.
