Sex ed for lesbians.
Honk.
Honk.
Every day is like the annual migration of Canadian geese. Honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk, honk. It never stops. What’s more, actual geese poop on your lawn but leftists poop on everything.
Sex ed for lesbians.
Who knew we’d not only see the return of the crass male line to lesbians “How do you know if you don’t like dick if you’ve never tried it?” … now it’s not only acceptable, it’s downright mandatory.
Exhibit A, your Honour.
Unexpectedly.
More of this would cut the crime rate.
…now it’s not only acceptable, it’s downright mandatory.
Also, near as I can tell, it is one way (NPI), I am not seeing any ersatz men telling gays they have to try man vagina.
Exhibit A, your Honor.

Yes indeed. Shunning people who engage in dangerous irresponsible behavior is a virtue.
New Jersey should just be done with it and make this a men’s prison.

How about making it a prison for “special” men with “special” mental problems?
Note that the murderer, Daryl Graves, has a history of mental illness and an IQ of 72. Perhaps that explains his drug abuse and why he started calling himself Dejshontaye Goddeszholliwould.

How dare small children not affirm her themness.
Look, I have it on very good authority that “Kindergarteners aren’t learning about sexual intercourse, Second Graders aren’t being encouraged to explore different genders, and Fifth Graders aren’t being pitted against each other in some sort of guilt-inducing race war. That’s utter nonsense, and the people peddling it are lying to you for votes and ratings.” It’s all utter hogwash. The teachers say so. And their friends as well. Shame on you for questioning their pure and noble nature. And no, insisting that you are rotten and evil and stupid and wrongheaded for believing such things just because you’ve seen plenty of evidence is not bullying. It’s just not. They’re teachers. They know these things.
If you volunteered in the school system like I have, well yes…maybe a teacher you worked with may have been forced to resign due to inappropriate behavior. Or maybe you even recall odd things from your own school days that you didn’t understand or believe or perhaps doubted a rumor that you now learn actually happened. That’s on you for not pretending otherwise. Other people pretend, why can’t you? Just because you encounter a few rotten apples does not mean the whole barrel should be suspect. A teacher told me that.
How dare small children not affirm her themness.
You are just a transphobe, two year olds recognize gender identities. Research says so.
Meanwhile in Australia, a new at risk group is identified.
A teacher told me that.
A teacher also told me that teachers are not answerable to parents and have the right to indoctrinate children however they wish. Because “academic freedom”.
You are just a transphobe, two year olds recognize gender identities. Research says so.
Note the expression “toxic binary ideals”. Let’s all ram those “toxic binary ideals” down the groomers’ throats. Except when we’re running them out of town on a rail. Tarred and feathered.
A teacher also told me that teachers are not answerable to parents and have the right to indoctrinate children however they wish. Because “academic freedom”.
Someone who needs small children to participate in, and affirm, in class, her irresolvable psychodrama, and who vomits and weeps if they fail to do so – i.e., if they remain honest – probably shouldn’t be entrusted with other people’s children. That this should seemingly have to be said is itself quite remarkable.
Yet here we are.
A teacher also told me …
Not to beat a dead horse…well, it ain’t dead yet…but think about what I said there. I was totally serious. A woman who is responsible for teaching children about the world took a common sense piece of wisdom, that is quite obviously true, and turned it completely around to “prove” her point that these bad apple teachers are not a risk factor for our schools. It’s a moment of absolutely stunning stupidity. Joe Biden level stupid. And these people teach children.
Or stunning mendacity. Or both, given the poor intellectual reputation of schools of education.
Remember the monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey? The apes touched it and it increased their intelligence. Schools of education are like that, except that they make the students stupider.
I was doing a crossword puzzle put out by a company in Brazil, where they think Britain = America and use British spelling. One clue involved that shiny stuff with which you wrap food. It was spelled “Aluminum.”
Keep fighting, Yanks, we’re winning!

Well we could argue the “about”/“aboot” thing with the Canucks. They’ve gone commie anyway and it would behoove us to get our shots in before we join them, so…
Though before we do that…which is more fine-grained, “exactly” or “precisely”? Re, in Yank parlance, “We leave exactly at 12 o’clock” could mean any time between 12:00 and 12:00:59.999. However, “We leave precisely at 12 o’clock” means as close to 12:00:00.0000” as possible. My suspicion is that in Brit, these are swapped.

Wait, I though you said you didn’t live in Yorkshire?
“The SYSTEM failed me!”
“A teacher also told me that teachers are not answerable to parents and have the right to indoctrinate children however they wish. Because “academic freedom”.“
This is what happens when purchasing education for your kids isn’t a commercial contract.
“My suspicion is that in Brit, these are swapped.“
The British Speaking Clock famously used to say*, “At the third stroke, it will be… twelve… o’clock… precisely”, as opposed to, say, “Twelve… o’clock… and twenty seconds”. (Irritatingly, none of the examples in the linked video is of a “precise” time. But it did.)
*Might still do. Is it still a thing?
[ Hallucinogens begin to wear off. ]

Meanwhile, also in Blighty, the rozzers take down a hardened criminal.
“The SYSTEM failed me!”
So, our woke slut, a man supposedly knowledgeable in matters of sexual health, endangers his own health needlessly, gratuitously, at a time of heightened risk, along with that of others, knowing full well the gruesome hazards. When the predictable – and easily avoided – happens, he then invokes victimhood and complains about the “unfairness” of not being immediately handed a magic pill that would somehow compensate for his own pathological choices. Choices that, apparently, must not be questioned.
I’m struggling to find much sympathy. And they call it Pride, you say?
“The SYSTEM failed me!”
Another clue as to the true purpose of George Soros’ “open society” foundation? In all seriousness, Soros does seem to be bent on destabilizing every society on the planet.
complains about the “unfairness” of not being immediately handed a magic pill that would somehow compensate for his own pathological choices. Choices that, apparently, must not be questioned.
Indeed, indeed.
I had numerous arguments, back in the 70’s and 80’s, with “progressive” people about the harmful consequences of sexual promiscuity. They all endorsed “do anything you want and then get a shot of penicillin” approach to life.
Choices that, apparently, must not be questioned.
I also note that while he’s upset about the department of health call
… nowhere else in his “poor me” tale does he ever tell us that he even tried to contact those “several guys” he had sex with over the weekend.
I guess he figures that’s the responsibility of THE SYSTEM, too.
Just.what.the.hell.
Just.what.the.hell.
There are people that should be involuntarily quarantined.
I’m struggling to find much sympathy.
A man should know his limits.
Kids and gender: little kids cannot imagine sex. They can grasp a mommy and a daddy and that these two people have kids, but not the how. If you tell a 3 yr old that their mommy is your daughter, they will just say no or turn away. Can’t grasp it. In order to go beyond that and talk about LBGQT, you have to go into the mechanics of sex. This is destructive and incomprehensible to the child.
Victimology: there are cultures that are imbued with victimhood. It colors everything. They are taught that they cannot succeed, that everyone goes to jail, that stealing is “sticking it to the man”, that dealing drugs makes you a big man, that having kids without a dad around gets you a check from the gov, that studying is “acting white”. What teen is able to ignore all that?
… nowhere else in his “poor me” tale does he ever tell us that he even tried to contact those “several guys” he had sex with over the weekend.
He may well not know who they are, or how to contact them.
But he could tell the contact tracer where and when he had those “encounters”, which would be useful.
Another evil lie told by people I knew long ago: Satanists are nice folks just like you and me.
This is destructive and incomprehensible to the child.
It reminded me of the woke eight-year-old lie from a few years ago, the one that was being repeated, or rather performed, by a remarkable number of self-styled progressive parents.
As I said in the subsequent thread,
Needless to say, niche, speculative gender politics were not a preoccupation.
Death to all cucumber sandwiches!
I suspect the black monolith failed to impart the importance of removing the crusts.

but I don’t recall being overly engaged by, or aware of, the politics of the day.
I know I wasn’t as an 8 year old because, to this day, I can tell you exactly when I did become aware of politics … I was 9 years old when JFK was assassinated, and I was thoroughly confused by it.
A clarification: Although I love England and would like to live there, it is nonetheless true that I would bring a team of retired Rangers to seek out and destroy these abominations.
…
In return, I would invite David to send SAS teams to America to deal appropriately with these.
Another totally stable educator.
This comes to mind.
Politics: I had not the faintest idea until age 13 or so when there was a democrat campaign spot outside my school so you couldn’t miss it (Goldwater running for pres?). My friend was really into it and I was baffled as to how he had a clue and why he cared.
British police upset that someone is “untoward to pedos”? So we now must be nice to people who commit horrific crimes? Be polite to rapists (which is what pedos are) and murderers? Not criticize them? Glad I live on the wrong side of the pond.

Apropos.
Culture of resentment: to clarify, this culture is not just black. You can find trailer-park trash (white) in the US with this exact culture, as well as in places in London. The culture is passed on to the kids.

Black Coffee Matters
When you’re a Canadian public-school teacher – and a drag queen, obviously – and you want the classroom in which you work to permanently resemble a nightclub.
Mr Bryan Bone, who very much wants other people’s children to know about his sexuality – to have this information foremost in their minds – also likes to share videos of the children’s subsequently sex-themed puns.
Because, being an educator, all roads must lead to him. And hey, what man wouldn’t want a shrine unto himself?

Meanwhile, also in NYC, not wanting to play second fiddle in the teaching department, the rozzers are trying to match some of their UK counterpart’s silliness by confiscating toy guns.
True, I suppose you could put someone’s eye out, but when asked the 5-0 replied, “real guns?”
When you’re a Canadian public-school teacher – and a drag queen…

Also about “decriminalizing”, Kalamazoo decriminalizes public urination and defecation.
Kazoo mayor sez, “…the effort is part of changing ordinances for equity”, though it is unclear how crapping in the streets fosters equity unless all indoor toilets are outlawed.
Meanwhile Kazoo Commissioner Chris Praedel notes that it apparently used to be a misdemeanor and:
Because people who think your storefront is their personal latrine are super concerned about their records and that there might benegative consequences.

…a misdemeanor conviction stays on someone’s record for life and can have negative consequences
Um. Not really. I’d wager that most states have procedures for expunging one’s criminal records. It involves things like petitioning the court years after the conviction and demonstrating to the court you’ve been a law-abiding, productive citizen in the interim. Yeah, it can be a hassle with paperwork, lawyers and court hearings, but that’s part of showing you’re willing to do the hard work of cleaning up and staying clean.
A conviction for a crime goes on your record? You mean like so other people can find out that you are dangerous or crazy? Oh, well, we can’t have that. Sheep need to be kept docile. Ignorance is bliss. Talk about pols grabbing the wrong end of the stick…
As for beans on toast…
I am not sure we Yanks have any room to laugh at this. Here in California, not only are there beans inside tortillas (raw, very flat toast), but one can also find, in addition to beans, french fries! Carbs upon carbs seems to be a cross-cultural phenomenon.
I remember being horrified at a lunch I attended that featured fried chicken, corn, mash potatoes and biscuits. Not that it wasn’t delicious.

I can one-up that: My maternal uncle’s customary high school lunch was four lard sandwiches.
He was armed with a gun and was one of a group of seven robbers.
And yet the cops are on the lookout for the victim of the attempted robbery. Oh, and the other 5 robbers too, as an afterthought. Since they aren’t baying for blood as for the the bodega owner in NYC, I am going to guess the robbers and the victim are all similar levels of melanin-giftedness. Although since they still want the victim, and I don’t sense they care at all what happened to him, he may paler than the robbers. I hope for his sake he has enough of the Sacred Melanin in his skin.
