Cell phones banned in Dutch schools
Cell phones, tablets and smartwatches will be largely banned from classrooms in the Netherlands from January 1, 2024, the Dutch government said on Tuesday, in a bid to limit distractions during lessons.
I would not appreciate a law like this in the US.
After the refrigerator delivery, I thought Sparky might be racist, and this didn’t help
While I was log splitting, I was listening to Ice Cube on Joe Rogan’s podcast. They were talking about the movie, Friday. that Cube wrote and starred in. I hadn’t seen it for a long time, so I’m watching it now. I forgot how funny it is. Every character seems like a real person who probably lived on his street when he was growing up.

That’s a bullshit answer, so I ask follow-up questions. “After eating Ben & Jerry’s ice cream for breakfast, how are you going to spend the rest of the day?”
Retirement is such a foreign concept, people think about it in weird ways, and it’s different than people expect.
“Because the truth is, we all know it: Discrimination still exists in America,” Mr. Biden told reporters in the Roosevelt Room.
Biden is correct. Discrimination still exists in America, and he likes it that way.
