It's that time of year again - your annual reminder that if you're a Maths teacher and looking for suitable resources for your classes across KS3 to KS5 then do check out www.draustinmaths.com. The site is five years old this week đđ and in that time it's amassed over 1000 resources! 1/3
Pope Leo XIV met with one of the most prominent advocates for greater LGBTQ+ inclusion in the Catholic Church. The Rev. James Martin said Leo told him that he intended to continue Pope Francisâ policy of LGBTQ+ acceptance in the church and encouraged him to keep up his advocacy.
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nationâs public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
Okay. I just came back to this and you arenât calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be
FYI www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Live your life so that people donât consider rumors of your death a form of edging.
I miss Formula 1 before it went like this too.
I did a practice of Perplexity in 2023 due to educators insisting it was good for searching. While it gave me links to real webpages, the sites were just from the top 10 or so from a standard google search. The images it cited were not related to my query topic. The hallucination rate was about 80%.
The Minister of Articial Intelligence using an AI tool to incorrectly summarise a bill that would regulate AI tools is so perfectly on-the-nose and also a terrifying glimpse into how bad things are going to get.
Maybe if theyâre taking economics 12 and data management 12
They called up Ron fucking Swanson
He spent all term on vacation!
Hmm I wonder if this is a scamâŚ
Considering last playoffs, the Panthers kept everyone because they won. Tampa too when they went back to back. Other teams lose players when they lose. So I hope Edmonton loses again.
No, you get McDavid. No need to galaxy brain this. And there is no reason for Matthews or Tavares or Nylander or Knies to leave if you get McDavid. Itâs more reason for them to stay. The cap is going up⌠by a lot. Itâs a different era to the flat cap of the last 6-7 years.
I mean. They went to one final, granted, but were out in the first or second round every other year since that draft.
Some recent news led me back to this, and itâs still just as funny as it was a decade ago
Masterful gambit, sir
"we are human beings worthy of the same respect and dignity you'd extend to anyone else" vs "no you're not"
Would he like a shooting winger who shoots from even farther out?
I am begging everyone to stop with this insanity. A computer does not have biological functions, itâs just a machine that does math.
But generally sorry dude, I know the feeling
If you want the real answer: your body is no longer in flight-or-flight mode so it starts to allow your brain to know how tired it is
Game on.
Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.
This is so sad
Theyâd do a whole episode on making the best ârescue carâ and itâll get wrecked going 5 mph flipping into a river.
Ironically Iâm watching the âGrace has a gunâ episode
How many ways could the rescue go wrong? Yes.
THE MOTHER DOUGH
Update: 50/50 Frankie is the kidnapper
You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you? Iâm screwed.
Boyle only saves you if you can say Nikolaj
Why???
He should be aware.
Man you canât get my hopes up like that
Wonder where he got that playbook from.
ANDOR creator Tony Gilroy wrote âactor-and-director-proofâ scripts for the series, says Stellan SkarsgĂĽrd âTony writes as if every scene is so important, and every word is so important, even in the stage directions. He told me he was writing an âactor-and-director-proofâ scriptâ
the two biggest information polluters on the planet right now -- short-form video and chatbots -- work on exactly the same underlying architecture: delivering highly personalized garbage that has been sweetened by a host of psychological engagement tricks all while concealing the delivery process.
0.7% of the population.
Hi @dixreloaded.bsky.social. Here is the U.S. map with the percentage of trans people in each stateđ
All of this energy and effort to harm a small and precious minority.
Me, randomly: âwhose screams are the loudest when the loudest screams are silent?â @itwasfourone.bsky.social, without missing a beat: âthe horrors.â
And I'll say this is the case in Canada too. From 2018, we pay prisoners in Canada about $6 a day (not an hour) for labour. prisonjustice.org/wp-content/u... And I hope we remember (because America has long forgotten) that these places are meant to correct and rehabilitate lives. Not be cruel.
Another core message that's been forgotten to time.
Slavery is legal in prisons all across America. State prisons filled with people convicted of marijuana possession, a legal substance.
Huh, when Air Canada couldn't rely on back-to-order orders from the government, they sure suddenly were able to bargain in good faith and reach an agreement pretty quickly... www.cbc.ca/news/busines...
they won. they got legislated back to work and they just said "no" and they won. The people united will never be defeated.
The bartenders need to dilute their drinks more
Social media should be safe for trans people. Pass it on.
A CNN article says "[European leaders] were striving to construct a political and even emotional rationale for a pliable president to stay engaged in the long term for a truly just peace, rather than the one Putin wants." They have to keep him engaged with compliments so he doesn't lose interest
#Breaking: Air Canada flight attendantsâ union head defies back-to-work order: âIf it means jail, so be it.â
Among the people I know, even the most competent people use AI to âfixâ their presentations/reports so they fit that language better. The least competent just let AI do all the thinking for them. I guess weâll just wait and see how this bubble bursts.
The corporate world has made people talk like robots. No one talks like normal people anymore. Itâs all big words that are vague and manipulated from reality. So of course AI is going to do this extremely well.
I didnât know until now that in the original Rosie the Riveter painting, she is crushing a copy of Mein Kampf under her foot. Happy feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary, remembering all the women who crush the serpents of Satan under their heel.
Broâs last name is Moroccan. I wouldnât tell him to get âremigratedâ there. Just to shut the fuck up. Prick.
Itâs just all stupid
The workers donât want arbitration
Step 1: give up Step 2: ??? Step 3: earn a better contract
Tired: Chamberlain meets Hitler over Czechoslovakia (1938) Wired: Mussolini and Hitler meet and decide to invade Ethiopia together (1934-35). Later Mussolini adopts Hitlerâs more racist ideas and they work together in the Spanish Civil War and expand their Axis.
The men shouting âprotect womenâ donât actually want women to be safe⌠They want to have control over women and their autonomy, whilst pretending itâs about âprotectingâ them.
Naz is that friend who went through a messy breakup and now tells their friends ânah leave themâ every time đ oh Naz
DC police are using excessive force against Black people
Heâs flying around the world to raise money for cancer research. Heâs a survivor.
Most hated jersey bracket would be more fun.
Oh my
Bigots donât want to see anyone that doesnât look like their homeschool peers and staff.
Anti-trans bigotry only puts woman under threat. It doesnât protect them.
Just say the word and weâll burn it down again đđđĽ
ICE looted their restaurant and tried to break into the safe. News chopper footage caught them backing their cars up to the door and carrying out cases of food.
Or
Just spitballing here, but cryptobros throwing sex toys at WNBA players on the court and other cryptobros and male sports commentators calling it funny and telling the women and their coaches to 'lighten up' both explains the 'male loneliness epidemic' and why I don't care about it.
Definitely more respectful of women than the adjective âcisâ
(Reading her wiki) she lost to Coco in Italy and then beat her in Canada!
I still sometimes play the original one on... gamecube
Same answer
Or make up a recap for a game that didn't happen
Sunk-cost fallacy and cheating students are the only things keeping AI in business at this point. Just look at how usage of ChatGPT plummets as soon as the semester ends.
Abysmal messaging. First, politicians address sports-related issues all the time. Second, trans people in sports has *already been handled* by leagues and communities. Every major sports body has criteria for trans athletes! Most communities do not give a shit. The problem is bigots ignoring that.
Woah. Colorado did somehow worse than not showing up
Yeah that was a huge barrier in Mississauga. You had to drive/be driven. My parents didnât trust me to go out on a bike on roads.
It needs to be said that for the entire pandemic none of those in-person options were available, except maybe the park. But parks donât have wifi.
every teenaged anxiety I had when shopping at the mall with my sister or my girlfriend has now been legitimized with the news that the Victoria's Secret retail floor is a "women-only space".
At-risk kids very much need those places
Technically they melted the house down
It's saying people didn't finish watching those shows
Have they even considered how they're going to cool it?? There's no water there and the vacuum of space doesn't conduct heat!!!! wtf????
8/7 is coming up and I was looking at Crosby's stats for @itwasfourone.bsky.social and I found something amazing. Crosby scored above a ppg in 10/15 playoff tournaments and has been >ppg in every regular season of his career. I knew about that second stat, but that first stat is hard to comprehend
I think thatâs exactly how most royals handled things.
You know, it's kind of the same thing as chasing eugenics from a jean ad...
I swear people don't know how to listen anymore. The question and her answer explained that democrats attacking and excluding trans people is an overcorrection in that they're using the republican framing now. They're allowing the framing to be "bathrooms instead of classrooms". And she is right.
Every generation for ever have known the law doesn't apply to the rich and powerful. This is exactly the same thing for this generation. Will it change? Can it change? I don't know, but I no longer think these crimes are unique to this era.
Only thing I know about him is heâs always reading the news, constantly keeping current.
The quoted posts and comments are vile. Like, what the f&ck. Thereâs a lot of work you need to do and all you f&cks are wasting your time.
I would be so tired of this joke if I was him
