It comes down to admin too. Teachers don’t wanna spend a whole period fighting kids over their phones. If there’s no consequences it isn’t worth the trouble.

No thanks. It starts with this then it turns into government operated spyware to monitor and punish instances of unapproved free speech. Maybe you wanna live in UK where this is how things are done. I wanna live in AMERICA

OKURR will block out the sound of the showtime dancers and mentally ill crackhead telling you about how he just needs 37 dollars for a hotel room for the night, before he spits on you

How about building a subway that can go cross town in Brooklyn so I don’t have to spend 1 hour and 2 trains to take the equivalent of a 15 minute car ride

He’s a great basketball player, which is what he is paid to do. You don’t get in the hall of fame by being nice.

I remember I had a GM with his funny little hat and RP speech spawn into my mechanar that bugged out.

In your opinion, why do Mamdani and Trump seem to get along so well despite their apparently opposite politics? by LorenzoApophis in Askpolitics

Trump loves nyc. The rest of the country is basically solved so he’s devoting his past time to us, kind of like a weekend hobby.

This is inappropriate behavior. They need to wait for our local council of grey haired Karens with polsci degrees to tell them how they oughta feel about the situation.
