Some real thought-provocers there.
"Why are things expensive?" and "Stop associating wealth and prosperity with goodness" were excellent, as well as " homosexuality is found in over 450 species"!

But, unfortunately, I'm going to need someone to explain the problem with the "self-own" on the home schooling mom. "Teacher" is spelled correctly, the correct "their" is used, and it's used correctly.

... Used "their" instead of "him or her" as a singular pronoun (referring to the noun teacher) , thus using the same so called error they criticized the teacher of doing.

41. It's the use of "teacher" and "their" as referring to "teacher."

The word "teacher" is singular. Using the word "their" (which denotes a plural) is incorrect. When it's about a singular noun, the writer should have used "his/her" (another singular reference) as a follow-up instead of "their".

I guess I'm just a nitpicker, but it's better than being a nose-picker!

for my Indivisible group's next Call to Action email! Think it's gonna be this one:

“I would much rather be led by a decent human being who sometimes misses the mark, than a purposefully cruel sociopath who has no concern for other people’s pain.”

that has a pristine copy of "Revolver" signed by all 4 of the Beatles. 😬 If it's within my price range, it's mine. 🤞

This is from the King James version because i'm old:

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

That sounds pretty straightforward to me.

Trump adores the most heinous, heartless, cruel, criminals in the world. That should tell everyone all they need to know about Donald Trump.

Great collection today, ItsjustMe. I'm very late to the dump today, but a day without a dump is not a day worth living. Better late than not at all.

Thanks for all you do.
