I went to grade school in Mississippi, (Air Force brat, 1970’s) and here are some fun facts:

• The day started with the class reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and then singing “Dixie.”
• Every classroom had a paddle hanging near the blackboard. The principle and many of the teachers also had a paddle handing off of their belt.
• The "That’s a Paddlin’ " bit on the Simpsons was a 100% accurate representation of my first day in school
• The Mississippi schools were about 6 months ahead of the Utah schools I came from and they made me do a lot of the homework assigned before I got there.

iphone. They’re solid and they get updates forever so there is no rush to upgrade. I don’t miss Android and not getting updates 6 months after I buy the phone.

Interesting. Today Reddit sent a new TOS letter to an old email address (I don’t have any Reddit accounts because fuck u/spez). The username it referenced was created today. I’ve never used this address with Reddit and don’t have any confirmation emails in my box or spam indicating someone else tried to create this account. I changed the password and deleted the account, but I have to wonder if they might be trying to boost their subscriber numbers for an IPO.

Nothing. Anything that happens to me happens for my benefit, even if I can’t see it at that time.
