These people are evil, useless, and they absolutely hate you.

READ THIS STORY FROM CALIFORNIA

The board members apparently thought Wednesday’s meeting wasn’t yet open to the public at the time they started talking about social media criticism from parents.

“Are we alone?” one board member, Kim Beede asks, before saying, “B—- if you’re going to call me out, I’m going to f— you up.”

The president of the school board, Lisa Brizendine, laments that school officials are being targeted amid frustration over reopening for in-person learning.

“They forget that there’s real people on the other side of those letters that they’re writing,” Brizendine says. “It’s really unfortunate that they want to pick on us, because they want their babysitters back.”

Parents, still trying to play the role of the rubes, find the truth hard to handle:

“I thought the board members were also advocates for my child and had her best interests at heart. After [Wednesday’s] incident, it really has me thinking that they don’t,” Ashley Stalf, an Oakley Union parent, told San Francisco ABC station KGO.

At least Ashley is thinking now. These cretins hate her, hate you, hate the kids, hate God, and their only interests are their own.

I checked and the subject elementary district is in the bottom third of CA districts. I also saw another story about failed education in SC and the reluctant, confused jump to homeschooling. Don’t be confused or reluctant, just do it. Homeschool, or else they will “f— you up.”

Look out! Here comes… This is from The Sun, so there’s a high probability of hype or a jocular nature. But…

ROBOTS will raise one in three children in the future, an AI expert says.

Dr Michelle Tempest says the droids will feed, exercise and teach kids.

They will also change nappies and tell stories and artificial uteruses will develop foetuses.

Dr Tempest says that by 2050 parenting will be “entirely optional”.

She reckons mums and dads will only see their kids during holidays.

I reckons that they won’t opt for the artificial uteruses as that might deprive Moloch of a few drops. The rest? Let this come true and, in a generation, the bots will see humans as “entirely optional.”

‘Covered in Sauce:’ The Snowplow Parents

Helicopter parenting for faster failure. Vox Day explains:

I don’t even know where to begin with this:

In her practice, Dr. Levine said, she regularly sees college freshmen who “have had to come home from Emory or Brown because they don’t have the minimal kinds of adult skills that one needs to be in college.”

One came home because there was a rat in the dorm room. Some didn’t like their roommates. Others said it was too much work, and they had never learned independent study skills. One didn’t like to eat food with sauce. Her whole life, her parents had helped her avoid sauce, calling friends before going to their houses for dinner. At college, she didn’t know how to cope with the cafeteria options — covered in sauce.

That’s one benefit of having been raised in a family with a Marine Corps tradition. From childhood, one is informed that there is always and only one answer to every obstacle: improvise, adapt, and overcome!

I knew immediately to begin with the sauce…

This is a good lead-in (from the NYT!) to this week’s somewhat related TPC column about college. That will include a short Mueller note, not that Mr. Nettles didn’t fully explain the matter in this morning’s early op-ed.
