Standardized tests, even when administered fairly, favor the rich.

Last night, I was reading to our 5 year-old while my wife helped our 9 year-old with his math homework. They got stuck on a problem. I came over to help.

@pearson

Our 9 year-old's math curriculum is run largely through @pearson's computerized system, and it focuses on turning math into word problems, and it's complete garbage. The idea is great, but the writing of these word problems is next-level bad.

My wife, who has a masters degree and is remarkably smart, didn't understand a nuance of a certain sentence. My kid totally didn't grok it. The only reason I understood the sentence was because sentence structure is LITERALLY MY ENTIRE JOB.

Anyway, watching my poor kid suffer through the shit-level technical writing @pearson forces onto him has really driven home that the whole system is rigged.

** Q-Thread 3/10 - 3/11 **
Snowden returning to the US? It would seem that we were allowed to see somewhat of a 'negotiation' take place between #QAnon and @Snowden last night. There is a LOT to digest here so let's dig in. #WWG1WGA #GreatAwakening

D-3019
#QAnon starts us off with a link to the NSA site, where a 'puzzle game' is played based on the tic-tac-toe game from the movie 'War Games'. Not sure what the relevance of that is in this context, only that Q has used the 'Shall we play a game' numerous times.

@realDonaldTrump

As of the time of D-3019, @realDonaldTrump had 'forwarded' (RT'd) 11 Tweets. The primary topic (theme) seems to be #Demo corruption/ethics problem. @TomFitton and @paulsperry_ seem to be the portals of choice. #QAnon #WWG1WGA #GreatAwakening #StormIsUponUs

** Q-Thread 4/6 **
Starting off with a bang today. We were sent a signal last night. Did you catch it?

D-2980
nypost.com/2018/11/28/tru…📁- This is the important line: “If they go down the presidential harassment track, if they want go and harass the president ....
#QAnon

.... and the administration, I think that would be the best thing that would happen to me. I’m a counter-puncher and I will hit them so hard they’d never been hit like that,”

@realDonaldTrump

Read carefully knowing what you know now.- What we know now is that @realDonaldTrump tweeted the video from D-2971 (nadler) with the caption "Presidential Harassment". Then deleted that tweet. I have attached it for you to see.
