I got shamed out of debate club for committing murder. They found out because they saw me shitpost about it on Tumblr. I was also Will Graham.

my take on the woo woo/spiritual woman vs logical/atheist woman is really that both sides have been making good points (but if Iâm being honest the logic girlies are winningâŠ. Iâm just defensive of spirituality and the women who are also defending it. Iâll explain in next paragraph.) and that sometimes it hurts to see how condescending we all can get towards one another when engaging in debate or even just sharing thoughts. itâs like I love that piercing anger when it feels like radblr is united on some feminist cause, but a little disappointed at seeing how people speak to each other when we disagree. But I guess allâs fair in sharing ideas on tumblr.
I donât feel particularly strong on either side because Iâve come to define âspiritualâ more like. we are our bodies, we are connecting with our bodies and with our breath, and nature, etc. we are one with nature, basically. And that âonenessâ IS âgod.â So there, to me, is no separation. We are all âgodâ as much as we are beings. Alive. To me itâs not woo woo because I havenât come up with some vision of some imagined higher power, I donât worshipâŠanything tbh. I stopped thinking worship was valid while leaving the Catholic ChurchâŠ.. I am simply honoring and respecting and revering what I am, the world I am a part of, other people, animals, plants, etc. (I feel like thatâs what goddess worship was tbh? If it has to do with women realizing the magnitude of the female body we can observe here, how amazing it is, what âpowersâ the female body has to create life etc etc.. but idk). So to me Itâs a debate against/between two sides of the same coin, especially when the atheist/logic side say they feel a connection with nature without it being spiritual, and the spiritual side says their belief brings meaning to the realism of nature. anyways thatâs my take

I was just in a debate about the nuclear bomb and one on my opponents defense was "War crimes are not real, like Taxfraud and Jaywalking"

If you canât comprehend that somebody in a debate class might argue something they donât believe in, donât take a debate class! This school actually makes me want to die! A queer kid was arguing that LGBTQ books should be banned, which he obviously doesnât believe, and now heâs being called a homophobe!
âBut did he make it clear this wasnât his actual opinion?â Yes. Yes he did. It didnât matter.

Choir is like debate team where we encourage children to spend tons of time on it and turn into little douchebags about how they're good at it, but it doesn't teach them any skills that are useful outside of those things whatsoever.
Spending you childhood playing Warhammer 40,000 prepares you for later life in at least like 6 different ways choir and debate club do not:
1) Patience
2) Money management
3) Handicraft
4) Math
5) Reading comprehension
6) Resolving conflicts with weird assholes who paint tiny plastic monsters as a hobby

i remember back in 2017 when i first joined debating, the first clip of a debate that i ever saw in my 14-year old life, which also happens to be the speech that made me fall in love with the sport, was the wudc 2016 thessaloniki open final and part of bo's argument was how private property, a fundamental to capitalism, is a principle assault of the human. i think earl sweatshirt's mom, prof. cheryl harris does a beautiful job (29:34 in) to actually contextualising that argument and proving the principle through a real world case.

Debate club is funny because one minute you're talking about inflation and how to solve it and the next everyone's chanting "pancakes, pancakes!" at the top of their lungs

Day Sixty-Four
This is the GIF for today:
I spent APGOV teaching my way from World War II- which changed the way eugenics was viewed in mainstream US culture, and generated a lot of support for civil rights policymaking in some segments of the population- through the start of the Civil Rights Movement: Trumanâs desegregation of the military, Brown v. Board, the Little Rock Nine, the bureaucratic directives to desegregate interstate trains of buses, Boynton v. Virginia, the freedom rides. I showed PBSâ Freedom Riders, which students reacted really strongly, too.
I also talked about echoes: eNazi ideology being echoed by a certain rapper last night, school discipline targeting particular groups, states passing laws restricting what can be taught about race history in the US...Â
Lots for my students to think about.Â
In World, I continued teaching about the lead-up to the Rwandan Genocide. Today, I showed some slides about the Rwandan Civil War, the UNAMIR mission, and the assassination of the president. Then I had students read the UN Convention On the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide, and we discussed what it said and what the signatories were supposed to do. So, naturally, someone in both sections asked why it didnât happen in Rwanda. They knew from past classes that the US was one of the countries that didnât intervene, so we discussed why. I had them list the pros/cons for intervention, and the pros/cons for staying out, and asked them to weight them. That led to a really good, thoughtful conversation about what it means to deploy troops to a conflict zone, why the decision to intervene or not is never an easy one, and whether or not powerful nations have a responsibility to weaker ones. Students had a lot to say, and varying points of view, and it was just awesome to listen to them articulate their thoughts.Â
I got to listen to more students articulate their thoughts during flex block because the debate club had its first real meeting, and the members tackled two topics: should schools require uniforms, should parents tell kids Santa isnât real (they picked that one because itâs December, heh). None of them have done formal debates before, so we just kept this one casual- back and forth discussion, no personal attacks or pile-ons- and it was so much fun. I know I enjoyed listening, and I think everyone who participated enjoyed it, too. More of that again in January!
Also awesome: I was being observed the whole time by a preservice teacher. So he got to have fun, too!
We spoke a bit about it all during my lunch break, then he went to observe another teacher, and I went to have a meeting with one of my APGOV students who wants to do an independent study next semester. We came up with some plans, filled out some paper work, and I think itâs going to be really cool. He also asked me if his class was the quietest GOV class Iâve ever taught, and I said yes. Heâs always one to speak up, and he wishes his classmates would speak up more, too.Â
Working on it, always!
So, after we finished chatting, we both had to go to practice. Sadly, he's on the basketball team, not the track team, but itâs all good. We had a couple new athletes join us today, which is exciting, and The Head Coach and I put the sprinters through a solid practice of timed 40s, agility drills, and âFriday coreâ (a quick and challenging core workout) before cooling down and stretching. I had some things to finish up after practice, so I went back to my room for about twenty minutes, but I still wasnât the last person out of the parking lot when I left! And now itâs the weekend!
