Sulla-Marius 88 posted:Any link to this book and where it was used in educational curriculum?  If you google "southern history text on slavery 70s" it'll bring up a whole slew of links on it. Cut off the "70s" and it brings up more modern poo poo, like the books in use just last year which referred to slaves only as "workers" or another book which stated that slavery was only a side issue for the Civil War.

I think it was a goon who said that in elementary school you learn that the Civil War was over slavery, then in high school you learn that the Civil War was over state's rights, and finally in college you learn that the right they were fighting over was slavery.

When I was a FedEx guy I would just use one of the larger boxes as a toilet when I was on the go, so I approve of toilet paper by way of small freight distributors One day a customer walked out and opened up the back door of my truck, and there I am, sitting on a box like its a port-a-potty, reading a news paper with my pants around my ankles. I smiled and said "Hey! I'll be just a minute" and closed the door back

When you set them up to your account I'm pretty sure you can set a max-at-once order amount But you can't stop a toddler from hitting it every day

Len posted:This reminds me of when I worked at a day care. I was helping one of my kids with his history homework and his Ohio history book had a chapter on Edison and how great he was. Obviously that's nowhere near as horrible as those pictures but it just piled praise on the man when he was kind of a shitlord. At least Topsy made it out better than Mary.

Whatev posted:Edison was a decently sized cock. Even so, the internet has really exaggerated his malfeasance in recent years. Edison was really smart and an outstanding inventor, even with his idiot obsession against AC currents. Somehow the revelation that many of his inventions were commercially viable improvements of prior designs rather than the very first iteration has turned into "he stole them all!!" You do realize most of his 'inventions' were actually made by people in his labs and he took the credit, right. Hell, he had a guy who did all his math for him. Edison used the invention equivalent of the infinite monkeys with typewriters method, he just threw people and money at a problem until it was solved. That's not really invention since he didn't put in the sweat himself. He owned a research laboratory, we don't call people who do that inventors, except for him.
