There are 3 perennial #NFL playoff teams at 1-2 right now

#Seahawks
#ChiefsKingdom
#SteelersNation

Who's got the BEST chance of still making the playoffs?
CC: @HolleyandSmith
I want to say #ChiefsKingdom because of history but they aren't just 1-2, they have 2 conference losses AND a division loss. Plus #Raiders are undefeated.
#Steelers have 2 conference losses AND a division loss to a team that's supposed to be a pushover #Bengals . That's not good either. Can't see them getting into even second place with the Browns and Ravens on top
#Seahawks division is brutal but they don't have a division loss (yet) and only one is an NFC conference loss. But thier defense is so bad and stays on the field so long Wilson has to score every possession to win games.

You almost got away with the neutral presenting bad faith "just asking questions" shroud popularized by the horseshoe left, but this tweet tips your hand. The 2020 election was not STOLEN on any level, and certainly not through the supposed suppression of the Hunter Biden story
This is how you can spot the bad faith shtick of the phony online left. Thier obsession w/ elite media & politics power games while ignoring or dismissing actual ongoing oppression and corruption of basic systems of government. Mostly white & white adjacent champagne socialists
Trump suppressed the vote through the USPS, intimidated secretaries of state, GOP legislators limited voting access for black people, a report drops this week of the MYRIAD ways Trump tried to undermine the popular vote - And you say hiding Hunter Biden STOLE the election?

There is a push by some to place blame about SCOTUS on Bernie or Bust folks, and as satisfying as that may be in the short term it, just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. That position also absolves the Dems of DECADES of inaction against GOP anti-Democratic tendencies #thread
First, more 16' Bernie primary voters eventually came around to voting for Hillary than Hillary primary voters came around to voting for Obama in 08'. The myth that he cost her the election needs to be put to sleep like swing voters and other DC beltway fantasies
Moreover, even in the #WhatIfMarvel version of America where Clinton wins in 16', there is NO reason to believe McConnell would have held a vote on any of her SCOTUS nominees. In fact, he pretty much said he'd never seat another judge from a Dem as long as he ran the Senate

Imagine finding out days before you THINK your son will graduate, that they've only passed 3 classes in 4 years of high-school with a .013 GPA. Yet the school kept advancing them to the next grade year after year abc3340.com/news/nation-wo…
In my school district we had what was called "social passing" where if you failed a grade more than once you automatically graduated to the next grade. Which is why there was a 16 year old bully in the 9th grade junior high-school. But there's no excuse for 4 years of failure
Of course if your school gets paid by the student then you have incentives to either maintain "Ghost students" or keep kids in attendance that should otherwise be gone. This is a pretty crazy story - Same high-school

Weeks like this are a reminder of the structural weakness that America has because we have substandard public education on current events which puts news media in the unfortunate position of having to inform then contextualize stories that really require more than 3 minutes
911 could have been a fundamental turning point in American education. For all the screaming about STEM education, 911 should've galvanized local school boards to increase focus on world history, geography and history. Instead we doubled down on Mid-East bad, America good
Americans know about as much about #Afghanistan today as they did 20 years ago and yet everyone wants to point fingers about who failed when and how. Our media & elected officials can't be moved to smarter policy when the public is not educated about anything north of Maine

This week's @Slate #AWord podcast really hits home. We discuss the serious and underreported impact #COVID is having on the black family. Please take time to listen and share
slate.com/podcasts/a-wor…
Rampant greed is one of the reasons America is facing another #COVID and Variant wave despite having more than enough resources to do effective track & trace, quarantine and vaccination. But the push to re-open schools this fall is more about misplaced optimistism than greed
You've got @LSU refusing to require vaccination (but vaccinating an actual Lion mascot) and even at colleges that do require vaccination it's still dangerous to start classes full time again theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…

One of my favorite memories from 1st year at @UVA involves this song. Spring semester the OHill Cafeteria surprised us with a cookout (Grilled burgers/ hotdogs) instead of the usual cafeteria fare ( fried burgers/hotdogs). The D.J., food and atmosphere was very dry
Also, this the 90's at @UVA - campus was extra segregated, black and white students mostly congregated together, with AAPI and Latino students sprinkled throughout, served by almost exclusively black cafeteria workers. Nobody seemed particularly happy to be at a cookout
After like 40 minutes of lame hits, the DJ puts on "It Takes Two" and I swear, it was like a scene out of a Hollywood musical. First everybody noticed that there was a real beat playing. Then folks starting tapping their feet, then people were dancing in cookout line...
