reddig33 , in Georgia school district is banning books, citing sexual content, after firing a teacher

Be sure to use a photograph of early readers when discussing banning books aimed at young adults.

At least it wasn’t a photo of “Gender Queer” for the umpteenth time — which is a book aimed at college age readers.

alienanimals , in Elon Musk to strip headlines off news links on Twitter in latest overhaul

Literally every single day we have idiots doing Musk’s PR work for free.

Downvote Musk spam. The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle.

delete your account if you don’t like it or stop crying about it.

alienanimals ,

How about you delete your account if you don’t like it. Maybe Daddy Musk will like one of your tweets if you simp harder for him.

This actually seems quite managable. ICR loans are used for student debt in the UK too.

I fucking hate this so much. Every time they get trigger happy they yell it like they’re in some epic firefight to save the fucking world.

That’s because they actually think they are.

Because they’re in full on main character hero syndrome.

This is cool. I like that we’re paying attention to the moon again. We should already have people living there.

My stepfather works in a coke plant. I worry about how it is impacting his health

regalia , in Biden launches ‘most affordable ever’ student loan repayment plan

There just shouldn’t be an interest rate. It’s for education, you’re not investing it in commodities except ur big brain.

Sounds great, but someone would sue again. A loan servicer if not a republican

mosiacmango , (edited )

Set it to 0.1-1%.

Still billions of profit for loan vampires, and a much, much reduced burden for actual people.

jackie_jormp_jomp ,

Let them. Let republicans sue and drive the youth vote away further, let loan servicers emphasize how fucking ghoulish they actually are. Let it fuel actual legislation to change this shit.

They aren’t trying to win the current youth vote really, they’re already enacting sweeping educational changes in Republican controlled states to just indoctrinate the next round of youth voter at the start.

Oh yes, the PragerU strategy

Good luck with that. Does anyone really think passing gag rules about the LGBT is going to even wiggle the needle? Even in a pre-internet era no self-respecting teen is going to think religious grandpa bullshit is worth shit.

afraid_of_zombies ,

Not someone. It was CATO. it was CATO that sued twice. Their argument was that with less needy people they would have problems hiring. This is from their filing btw.

Just so anyone is unaware, under the old system if you worked for CATO you were working for a non-profit which meant after dla decade you would be eligible for a lot of student loan breaks.

We are paying people to work for a lobbyist and when there was talk of stopping that the lobbyist sued. Never ever ever forget that it was CATO that did this. Not just someone.

Wasnt this guy receiving money from the democrats? Funny how he looks depressed, wont be a shoker when he kills himself :)

PoliticalAgitator ,

Do conservative reactionary predictions ever come true? From everyone dying of vaccine complications years ago, to QAnon and his “Nostradamus for Nazis”, to violent video games turning children into killers, to reefer madness and satanic panic, to interracial marriage, all the way back to the adoption of electricity.

It’s not just backing a team that never wins, it’s backing a team that never wins yet insists they’re going to win the next match by 200 points.

The rumor seems to be that maybe he got sick. It’s unusual but not exactly a geopolitical shock.

NatakuNox , in New video shows Philadelphia Police officer shot Eddie Irizarry within seconds of getting out of patrol car
@NatakuNox@lemmy.world avatar

So the cops lied openly twice… The two cops need to be in prison and leadership needs to be fired! Also, cop reports need to be sealed and only reviewed by an independent citizen elected panel. If the report doesn’t match body camera footage and witnesses then that cop needs to be fired and/or jailed for lying.

saltesc , in India lands spacecraft near south pole of moon in world first

A wave of nervous excitement has gripped Indians in recent days as the scheduled descent approached. Temples and mosques held special prayers for a safe landing. On the banks of the River Ganges in Varanasi, Hindu monks bestowed blessings on the mission and blew conch shells.

At street parties on Wednesday evening, Indians celebrated the double triumph of being the first to land on the south pole and the fourth to land on the moon.

In the final few minutes before touchdown, the lander executed a complex manoeuvre, slowing down from 3,730 miles an hour to nearly zero and turning from a horizontal to a vertical position.

The right tilt and thrust at this moment were vital. If too much force was applied, the lander would have toppled. Too little force and it might have hit the lunar surface at the wrong place.

It was this end manoeuvre that went wrong in the final few minutes of India’s last moon mission in 2019, when the lander failed to change position and hurtled towards the surface during the final braking phase.

Well, I’ll be damned. I was super happy for India, but now I feel a bit of their pride too.

Congratulations all involved! Hell of a job. Well earned.
