We homeschool in Canada and have done so long before the pandemic. Technically, what we do is distance education, as my kid has teachers, a proper curriculum, assignments, etc. She’s absolutely thrived with this, where rural public schools were a nightmare of bullying and neglect.
But here there are rules and real requirements. Based on Oliver’s video, homeschooling in the US is an utter shitshow. The anti-intellectualism in the US is incredibly bad.
You mean the guy who replaced the Italian Mafia in NYC with the Russian Mafia, then avoided investigation of that because of 9/11, then threw everything behind a president with very questionable connections to Russia, and took several mystery trips to Russia…might have been compromised by the Russians?
Shocked!
AUX, AUX, baby…
If you really want to be messed up, absolutely nothing is where we think it is because gravitational lensing affects the light of every object in the universe, while we observe. The further away it is, the more light is warped by the masses along the path, and we can’t know what those many masses are or where they are either.
Our observability of the universe is a guessing game as large as the universe, and there is no conceivable model to assess it all and the interrelations between…everything.
Since my books are for TTRPGs, selling on DriveThruRPG has been better by far. I’ve made hundreds of dollars from there and under $10 on Amazon. Amazon tricks authors by allowing them to publish there then pushing those authors to pay to advertise their own books…which I did, but made zero difference. I’m also on Barnes and Noble, but made no money at all there.
However, as an author I’ve used their services to print copies of my books to put in games stores and that’s been very cost effective and made me decent money.
That’s not a bad idea. I’ll message you with a link. Won’t be Amazon, but what I’ll send you is there as well. I make zero money from Amazon sales. It’s a terrible platform for minor authors.
But if I tell you, I doxx myself :)
That is truly a terrible idea, and Amazon should be liable since they do exercise control over what they sell (which I know, because I have two books for sale there).

I can live with Trump leaving and his moronic followers leaving as well. I’d prefer him in prison, of course, but exile until death is acceptable.
Name even 3 of that plethora.
I never change my group because Gale and Laz’ael are annoying as hell.
Keep in mind that he fully admitted to holding back info on Trump. He exercised editorial control over submitted content in order to push an agenda.
Now, so does a lot of the media, but he was portraying Wikileaks as a beacon of transparency.
I feel like they didn’t audit trailer parks.
I’m about 90% Lemmy, 9% Reddit, 1% Tribel right now.
As soon as Lemmy has enough people and communities to keep me always reading something new that interests me, I’ll be 100%. I’ve already abandoned subreddits that I modded. There’s little to keep me going back.
