Who's the one with talking points? Because that one's from the constitution. Push the states to oppose Trump's interference

Constitution says no and states get to enforce that no

Practically anything can go faster than Disc light, which is lazy and tame, unlike ordinary light. The only thing known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Wheedle. He reasoned like this: you can’t have more than one king, and tradition demands that there is no gap between kings, so when a king dies the succession must therefore pass to the heir instantaneously. Presumably, he said, there must be some elementary particles—kingons, or possibly queons—that do this job, but of course succession sometimes fails if, in mid-flight, they strike an anti-particle, or republicon. His ambitious plans to use his discovery to send messages, involving the careful torturing of a small king in order to modulate the signal, were never fully expounded because, at that point, the bar closed.

Because if the next cohort is simply performing better you force some students to be graded below their performance, which is unfair punishment, and if they're worse then some will be graded higher. It's especially unfair when the composition of students changes rapidly or when used over very mixed groups of students.

Grading should be decided based on achieved learning targets, not group rank. It's not a fucking sport.

I swear to god most of you people attacked both Biden and Kamala despite both being more competent candidates. How the hell do you guys choose who to attack and who to defend? Are you trying to lose on purpose?

I'm not even seeing you defend a candidate like Mamdani either, who actually need the support right now

Grading on a curve is indeed that, and it should be criminalized because of how much it harms students
