    As someone who felt discouraged from participating in PE because of teachers forcing activities I didn’t like, ended up hating exercising, and now getting in shape and trying to find active hobbies so I have a good physical activity level; thank you, please keep it up.

    Also, if you’re able to please can you do two lessons on healthy eating with an activity for students to make / use a calorie counter and then the following lesson present the calories and and the macros of what they ate.

    I would have really appreciated knowing that earlier on in life so when I left home and had full control over what I ate I would have eaten better and avoided putting on so much weight.


  • Downvote me if you must, but idiots like this won’t internalise the lesson until their parents, partners, sons, and daughters die in ICE custody.

    The same way that the vaccine conspiracists won’t learn until they watch their unvaccinated child shrivel and perish from a horrific and completely preventable disease.

    The memory of the suffering has to live on in people’s minds by having permanent consequences etched in the blood of unfortunate innocents as APPARENTLY we’re on average to fucking dumb as a species to remember otherwise!




  • As another outside observer I’d disagree that was the reason she lost. Yeah there’s racism and sexism issues in the US, but in the last US election both AOC and Bernie got a lot of votes to elect them as senators on the senator ballot from people who also voted Trump on the presidential ballot.

    AOC and Bernie did some polls on social media asking these people why they voted for both them and Trump. The responses were typically like “you’re not part of the political elite” and “you say it how it is” and “you seem like you genuinely care about Americans”.

    IMO, Kamala is considered too close to the democratic political establishment and that the American public is desperately craving some more (mostly economically) progressive politics which AOC and Bernie have been talking about for years.

    If the DNC run Kamala in 2028 then the Trump administration will project it as “Biden, Harris, and the elites want to be president forever, so why not pick me instead”.




  • Ok, but in general so can any organisation/institution become corrupted. So can your local authority or the upper management of where you work or the local school board or the organisers of your favourite activity club.

    Your statement is tantamount to saying “corruption exists and is bad”. Well yeah, it has since people put a name to greed.

    Its good to keep an eye out for it, but unless there’s growing evidence for the case that French courts have been corrupted, like how there’s now a mountain’s worth for the US supreme court, then it’s not being skeptical it’s being very cynical.
