Short of pinching off a turd in Ronald Reagan's punch bowl, Donald Trump should be everything Republicans hate about America.
Curious.

I'd like to preface this by stating that remote learning was absolutely detrimental to the mental health of myself, my friends, and my peers at school. Despite this, the present conditions within schools necessitates a temporary return to remote learning; if not because of public health, then because of learning loss.
A story of my day:
- I arrived at school and promptly went to Study Hall. I knew that some of my teachers would be absent because they had announced it on Google Classroom earlier in the day. At our school there is a board in front of the auditorium with the list of teachers and seating sections for students within study hall: today there were 14 absent teachers 1st period. There are 11 seatable sections within the auditorium ... THREE CLASSES sat on the stage. Study hall has become a super spreader event -- I'll get to this in a moment.
- Second period I had another absent teacher. More of the same from 1st period. It was around this time that 25% of kids I know, including myself, realized that there were no rules being enforced outside of attendance at the start of the period, and that cutting lass was ridiculously easy. We left -- there was functionally no learning occurring within study hall, and health conditions were safer outside of the auditorium. It was well beyond max capacity.
- Third period I had a normal class period. Hooray! First thing the teacher did was pass out COVID tests because we had all been close contacts to a COVID-positive student in our class. 4 more teachers would pass out COVID tests throughout the day, which were to be taken at home. The school started running low on tests, and rules had to be refined to ration.
- "To be taken at home." Ya ... students don't listen. 90% of the bathrooms were full of students swabbing their noses and taking their tests. I had one kid ask me -- with his mask down, by the way -- whether a "faint line was positive," proceeding to show me his positive COVID test. I told him to go the nurse. One student tested positive IN THE AUDITORIUM, and a few students started screaming and ran away from him. There was now a lack of available seats given there was a COVID-positive student within the middle of the auditorium. They're now planning on having teachers give up their free periods to act as substitute teachers because the auditorium is simply not safe enough.
- Classes that I did attend were quiet and empty. Students are staying home because of risk of COVID without testing pos

Look I understand a lot of people would love to live in New York supply and demand and what not. But with such a well developed area how can a 1 bedroom apartment cost 5,000 a month? Where do all these rich people come from? I make close to 100,000 a year and I couldnβt even afford the basic necessities in a place like NYC! How do like 20 million people afford it? If just make no sense to me. Please explain like Iβm five.

I live in a small town in Tennessee and I am insanely jealous of New Yorkers because they have 24/7 public transportation that doesn't require you to call three business days in advance to schedule and you also get free transfers. I'd love to live in a city where you don't need a car.
