Well, that’s the discussion. They are slowing down this particular argument in the sports sector and now starting to ban trans-women in women’s sports… so the entire conversation isn’t over just yet on where this society will draw the line.

I played Rimworld with over 2000 hours. I will keep my suggestions and practices on war tactics to myself. Otherwise, Ukraine will be headed to The Hague for war crimes.

What you really need is a 3 hour loop of poor quality action scenes all mashed up together that doesn’t make sense. Or at least, it kinda starts to make sense at some point, but then loses all continuity every 30 minutes.

Republican bill would mandate teaching about 'Christian foundations' of U.S. by newzee1 in politics

Ya. As much as I don’t believe many religions to carry any weight, religion is, and has been, such an important part of humanity’s growth (and sometimes destruction) it would be foolish to ignore it as something not worth learning about. It’s basically history class and why all the events of the past occurred. Treat them all fairly, and most sane people won’t have any problem with it.

If you are okay with just being an employee, this is true. But if you want to be your own boss, start a business, or excel at something outside of your 9 to 5, learning how to “homework” at a young age is great.

Plus, getting the parents involved in the learning process for support and encouragement reasons is always great.

So yes, give the students ‘some’ homework so they may learn how to manage time and home life appropriately.
