The destruction of America's public education system
When a school district goes to 4-day weeks, do they cut teacher and staff salaries by 20%? That's the bulk of expenses for an ISD. I think that has happened in other states.

Marvel Cinematic Universe the Endless Phase: Tripping Balls (Spoilers)
Just saw CA: BNW. Talk about a movie where nothing happens. First, is Jew Girl a little person? She’s about 4’6” and it’s distracting AF when she’s on screen. She looks like a 9 YO playing dress up. This movie is so chopped to shreds that there’s one scene where she is wearing her superhero outfit but it’s never referenced and she doesn’t do anything. I like Tim Blake Nelson but he is miscast as the lamest Marvel villain so far. It doesn’t help that his character design looks like a plastic supermarket Halloween costume from the early 80s. When he was revealed, the entire theater laughed. It didn’t help that he already looks a bit regarded and his bad makeup and contacts make it worse. Overall, the movie isn’t terrible and it’s not good. I wish something happened to tip the scales one way or the other but it never did.

If you look at Facebook on a Chrome browser, there’s an add-in called Social Fixer. You can block all Suggestions and Advertisements from your feed. Once I found that setting, I realized 95% of my feed was unwanted bullshit and basically no one I know posts any longer.

Putin can sit back and let us destroy ourselves. Ukraine and Europe will be his in time.- The destruction of America's public education system
Here's my half baked idea. Every urban school district forms a Municipal Education District, similar to a MUD. They tax through the MED. The districts go private but are open enrollment for any kid living in their previous attendance zones. Now, they collect their school property taxes, don't have to give any money to the State via Robin Hood, AND the State has to provide $10,000 for each kid attending these private schools. - Trump’s America
