Limited data from some states and districts shows that students learning remotely--especially students of color, special needs and elementary school students--were attending school less often compared with their in-school classmates.

The data deepens concerns that the lengthy school closures will widen the pre-pandemic academic achievement gaps between poor students and others.

@Dons_better_half @th3j35t3r @Don_DelPriore It was the least I could do to show my support to you and to honor him as well. I can't fathom your loss and the weight it must have on your heart right now, but I know in here, coso, you have a support network that can lift a little of that weight for you when you need it. I may not be around as much as I used to be, but I do check in, so If you ever need some cool water, which is what I call the SRV song Little Wing, just hit me up. I'll oblige 🎵

@th3j35t3r Ya know, I do not get blocked by people often on Twitter. When I do, I see it more as a badge, then a bad thing. Then there are what I call "Righteous Blocks". Those beauties are earned and relished. So when the Menchling blocked me, all it did was motivate me even more to piss her off. Which I did in high fashion.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Had a restless sleep. This time yesterday @Don_DelPriore's wife, @Dons_better_half privately let me know that her husband, my friend, and our fellow cosonaut had lost his battle with cancer.

They run a dog rescue. Every now & then he'd DM me a pic of a new dog they'd rescued asking me to name it. I'd spend the next 30+ minutes trying to think of the most un-dog-like name possible for him, like 'Brian'... and he'd run with it.

Rest in peace my old friend.

Gayla - we're all thinking of you.

@th3j35t3r @Don_DelPriore @Dons_better_half
Don has been apart of this group, and the 1337 for a long time. Always the gentleman, and engaged with respect.

I'm sending this out in his honor today

RIP my friend. You will be missed

@LibertySpeaks
Yes I remember well.
A good discussion, that foreshadowed all this.

The situation is still bad, stuck in a binary, keep kids at home without support, or bring them into schools with little support.

For those who remember, I posted a series on the school lockdowns and about what could happen back in the first 10 days of August starting on 8/1.

My memory is as clear as those skies....

I will always remember the Eleventh of September

So I had an epiphany last night as I was getting ready for bed so I may be up at 4:30 in the fricken a.m. after a really relaxing well earned and deserved 3 day weekend.

I thought about all the people who say...

"if I win the lottery, I'd still work"

Had to chuckle to myself when my mind immediately thought

"HELL NO I WOULDN'T STILL WORK"

Happy Tuesday, I didn't win the lottery, there will be no blogging from a hammock for me today

@phase @th3j35t3r lolololololol thats hilarious.

I was gonna go existential for a moment, but thought no, Phase just absolutely had the best reply, then I thought, well, ok.. I'll still post it. LOLOLOL

Hello @DeepFakeDetector

I've been enjoying reviewing all the media you have deemed as a probable DEEPFAKE or artificially manipulated. I rush to click the link you provide everytime I see this 👇

"COSO DeepFake Detector AI has analyzed the video you recently uploaded (link below) and determined it to have a 100% probability of being a DEEPFAKE or otherwise artificially manipulated.

I feel left out, so I thought I'd be proactive and aim for the 100% club.

Happy Hunting

@Madken65 Thank you, and with all layers, once peeled, the factoids do sometimes become less discrete. :)

@Madken65 I "buy very little" when it comes down to opinion vs statistics. that's why I usually do my own research.

@Madken65 I cant view the post through the paywall, however, if the WP is saying what you posted,

"he will likely become the first president since modern employment statistics were recorded to leave office with fewer jobs than there were at his inauguration."

that statement by the Post is inaccurate.

Look at the unemployment rate Jan 2001 and Jan 2009.
