    While education is our primary responsibility, public schools are also the access point to critical social services for thousands of students and families. Many of our families rely on our schools and staff for basic needs, including regular meals, health care, and child care. If our schools shut down, vulnerable families are at a higher risk of being negatively impacted.

    Sad but true. How did we get here?

    I'm glad they are staying open. This whole thing is amazing.

    Just how the left needs them to be: it enables the ruling class providng them control, power and wealth.

    Regardless of the discussion of how current policies make pours dependent on the state, how low income fams can weather CV school closures looks a lot different than a Director at MSFT.
    SPS is glorified, subsidized daycare for a lot of families, and that's how both the kids and parents treat it. In a couple years there will by cries about how these families need more and more so there kids can test above the 25th percentile, and the voters will approve more levies. What you won't see is the parents of these kids coming to parent-teacher conferences, volunteering at their kids school, or every paying for anything as they roll up in a new car with the latest iPhone. Reagan's Welfare Queen in Chicago never existed. But she's alive and well in Seattle.

    No government entity can waste money like an urban zero-accountability American school district.
    Pretty much any urban school district. I was in SPS off and on 9 years in the 80s and 90s. Tucson, Portland, Phx, LA..all the same. Give me free shit. I don't raise my rug rats right but let's blame the teachers and principal for it.
    It's especially bad right now, and continues to get worse, all because of Privileged White Elites who call everyone else privileged. Wait until Robin Deangelos crack-pot "whiteness" and "white fragility" theories are adopted within the "ethnic studies" curriculum. Skin-color-based hatred will be a core subject and graduation requirement and that son-of-a-bitch MLK's dreams will finally be dead.

    Who grieves for @YellowSnow's children? I do.
    We may not be long for SPS but that's another story for another day. But as my academis advisor @creepycoug has pointed out, my kids would be able to come our of SPS fine because of the double privilege of good household income and superior breeding.

    The Throbber was on an airplane both Sunday and Monday. The Throbber said Fuck You to COVID-19 and, while he hasn't masturbated furiously since returning home, the Throbber is relatively confident the Purple Unit still works properly.

    Come next week, the Throbber will jump on an airplane again and stare death in the face. Looking forward to sprawling out across the entire row of seats or having his way with Mrs. Throbber v2.0 at cruising altitude.

    Life is good.

    Fuck you, CoronaVirus. Fuck you with a rusty cheese grater.

    Got back from Albertson's alive. Shelves were full of water and TP. The checker said panic has been at a minimum.

    I admire and respeck those TUFF country club / logging camp democrats. My country club GOP ancestors were willing to work you to get stuff done.

    Its funny because my dad was Justice of the Peace in a small town and cops and most everyone sucked my dick when they found out who I was. But we were second class at the Country Club. Hence the giant chip on my shoulder

    That was the other conversation at the checkout line. The HBO show on the rigged game.

    Good show. The one smartass FBI agent would fit in well here.

    Mrs. Throbber v2.0 tells the Albertsons checkers to fuck off when they try to throw that shit in her bag.

    I must thank my ancestors. 2 generations of sub 3.0 UW students have been able to make it in this world.
