zuisa - I know! I got texts from friends linking to reactions and I was like, "What happened?"

it sounds like it more even more insane than usual.

I watched very little. Mostly I had it muted until it was over. He talked for over an hour! What I heard was... bold faced lie... challenge... excuse of that is what he heard... lies... absurd exaggerations... whining about being picked on... bitching about the press... lies... absurd exaggerations. Seriously, I so badly want the press to stop covering this bullshit.

I don't know what happened to most of the people I went to high school with, and I don't particularly care

Same here. There were 2 people that were friends on FB prior to the great political purge of '16. An old boyfriend, and a friend that was born a couple months before me and was my neighbor for the first 18 years of life. Bye bye to both.

"I don't think there's ever been a president elected who in this short period of time has done what we've done," Trump said.

I have to give him credit for this, he's not wrong...

The TV was on in the break room when I went to get Cheetos, coincidentally, and just hearing that goddamn voice put me on edge, I don't even know what he was saying.

I don't understand my students. For my online classes, each week, there are a few videos to watch, a couple of quick questions to answer in between the videos, a longer homework assignment, and a quiz where they have to explain their reasoning. I generally get about half the material posted by Monday, and the other half posted by Wednesday, and all of it due the following Tuesday. This week, I screwed things up, and I'm posting the material later than usual, so I'm making it due next Thursday, rather than next Tuesday as usual. Several students have complained to me that this is messing up their schedule, because they always watch all the videos and do all the work on Tuesday, and they'll have to rearrange things if it's due on Thursday. I'm confused. It's still entirely possible to do the work on Tuesday even if it's not due until Thursday. I changed the due date because I was worried about students who usually do the work much earlier than it's due -- students who do it the day that it's due should be fine.

I have a Riverdale question that is spoilery do I just ask here?

Just white-font it, askye.

And I am CRACKING UP at tonight's Riverdale, because I kept saying -- AS A JOKE -- "I think Jughead is homeless! And why haven't we seen his parents, when we've seen all the other teens' parents?" But I was KIDDING. Well DAMN, show.

Steph, I know! They're getting so many points for how often my jaw drops open.

And Betty's mom is totally bonkers. Although, honestly, I think Betty isn't playing with a full deck, either.

Oh, don't say that, I'm weirdly in love with Betty!
