FIll in full name, and DoB.

First question in Live Chat :

" Hi please tell me your full name "

…wait till you hear about the people that write for a hobby.

not everyone writes for profit

…and to any of the feeds actually contain an article ? or just links back to website, so they get pageview ?

hard to know where to begin with that.

how awfully unconservative. !

it’s an interesting one - i thought they might do something. free money for homeowners which inturn goes straight to the bank is exactly the kind of this government does. it would also ‘support’ a bunch of speculators who are about to bite the dust.

if we could weather a sharp down turn, it would help cull the greedy.

she’s a beaut aint she ?

only the homeless need houses, einstein.

it is the unavoidable point if you insist English Lit should avoid difficult topics in order to instil the joy of reading, because literature is filled with harrowing stories of people behaving inhumanely towards one another.

at the same time, arguing that difficult topics should not be avoided but taught carefully, does not mean i do not empathise with those affected.

OPs question suggests there was at least some illusion !

if we’re only reading about rainbows and unicorns, it certainly thins the library.

…so does a post get created here, if i just tag it up ?

very cool - but… could get a bit busy, if a new post easy is created so trivially easy ?

the idea that a cabal of mods were going to take things in a good direction was always unsound

forgot to say -

. When I was in high school I was told half-caste was an acceptable term in the mid 2000s,

dual heritage is the way to go ! and much more meaningful.

I can see why, only if it is still being taught as it was 30 years ago - ie without addressing the language used - and I hope thats not the case. I can’t imagine anyone doing so in 2023.

If you start pulling stuff for those reasons (and for the record, I dont understand why they are still reading Steinbeck anyway) you go down a slightly dodgy path.

is there a better place, to learn and discuss racial slurs and the significance of the word, than in a class room ?

or should they learn it from rap music ? where it’s thrown around liberally like punctation, with no information about why it is the word that it is ?
