Something I made for my intro stats class a few years ago. Nobody really appreciated it, which is a tragedy because it's absolutely top-notch humor.

@jezlyn I teach a subject called Theory of Knowledge for the International Baccalaureate and it is a philosophy type subject. We have lessons about JK and Kanye and quite a few others. Kids get a lot out of it.
@jezlyn We had a fella called Chopper in Australia (bad guy, gang and contract killer) he went on to write books and they made a movie (excellent and recommend) but I only ever borrowed books from library to bought second haand and ripped the movie. He got no money I got entertained. Art v Artist is an interesting topic but I can't boycott if the art is good. I just don't give them my money.
@fesshole Nah, PE are not a worry. They have hand to hand combat tactics but long range or traps are key. At my school DT is part of science so we win

On #NationalScrabbleDay, this periodic table shows what every element's name would score during a game.
Can you spot the highest scoring elements and the only element that scores the same as its atomic number? https://www.compoundchem.com/2019/07/07/periodic-table-scrabble/

I refuse to buy any t-shirt / hoodie with print or anything on the back as I believe it would be a major hindrance in a spy like evasion and escape situation. I'm a dad in my forties who works from home and the most I get out is on the school run.

@cryptomator Can you please do an Infomaniak one? 
@rochelimit @rbairwell Oh, so much this!
@rochelimit My handbook says "if you are absent for 3 consecutive days without an appropriate reason you will be terminated without pay". I questioned what appropriate meant and if terminated meant killed. No response...
@jezlyn I have not seen that since the cinema. Flashback!
@thorsheim It was the first sentence I questioned. Crikey..

[later] I don't get why our pizza slices have such terrible reviews; the geotextile-infused sauce gives the toppings incredible slope stability!

Watched A Minecraft Movie yesterday. Delightfully stupid. I then went home and played 5 hours of Minecraft. #AMinecraftMovie
