  • A great history teacher can be amazing. I was fortunate to have a variety of excellent teachers. I was always gonna do something bookish (hah! Im an electrician, funny how that goes) but I had a physics honors teacher who stood out like that. Made me see the world completely differently.

    Unfortunately, I think the places you have to learn a lot of history are outside of classrooms. Most of my history teachers were very pro status quo, unlike my literature teachers. I usually played devils advocate.

    Now that one kid is in those classes I feel obligated to round out that education.




  • Wife and I don’t have any family nearby really so we get zero help with our youngest. We make okay money but my god any help at all would be a SUPER NICE use of my tax money over bombing brown children.

    The GOP is a death cult.

    In similar news, my oldest, who’s in honors classes, didn’t know what the Scopes Monkey Trial was. I hate the fucking Bible Belt.
