  • I had a friend who tried sticking up for his students when the school’s Zero Tolerance Drug Policy™ meant that they couldn’t carry epipens around them. The Principal’s defense when he was told he was he was going to get sued for a wrongful death was “I’ve been sued before”. My friend was let go the following year and didn’t have the energy to sue.

    Considering the overall state of the US, I don’t think my anecdotes are exactly exceptions. Everything I’ve feared would happen is happening.


  • I got lied to about my placement tests for no one’s gain. I got stone walled and gaslighted every time I tried improving my situation.

    The most passion I ever heard from a teacher the was a rightwing asshole in my civics class when he was complaining about immigrants or welfare queens. My science teacher had to be asked directly about climate change for him to utter his take on that.
