  • Huh, so is he gonna stop funding genocide? Is he gonna end student loans? Let women get abortion healthcare at military bases? Stack the court? Stop giving military equipment to police? Give me $1200? Federally legalize pot and pardon all cannabis possession/distribution charges?

    He barely scraped by in 2020, and that was with people expecting steps towards free college, defunding the police, freeing the migrant concentration camps, and free healthcare. Since then he has only demotivated the base.



  • I'm not an English teacher, but I remember and I see the problem with telling kids to sound out words; 1. Children are not taught phonemes. The word children is not Chuh iihhh lah duh rah eee nuh. Such a word is only picked up by context and memorization. 2. english doesn't actually follow any rules.

    In english, words are simply pictures that hint at the pronunciation and meaning of words.

    Context is infinitely more useful than the way I was taught of "letters make these sounds, and put them all together".
