IF YOU TOOK THE JUNE 6 SAT

learning-while-disabled:

Check the email you used to sign up for it, and google “june 6 sat error”. There was a printing error with section 8 that led to the tests not being actually standardized properly (or at all, really).

This is ridiculous, and the families who payed the outrageous fees to take a standardized test that wasn’t actually standardized should voice our outrage to the College Board and ETS.

File complaint forms, call customer service, spread this information, and do NOT let them slip this one under the rug.

I’m tired of the education system screwing over students who are basically dependent on the Board for their futures. This can’t be allowed to keep happening.

Even if you didn’t take the SAT or aren’t going to, boost this. People deserve to know what they’re getting into.

So I had this internship in India. While there, I got sick. It wasnt a big deal, just needed an IV and some antibiotics, in and out in like three hours. I go to pay for my hospital bill (which was like $70) and the receptionist person asks me what I do/why I am in India. They find out that I am a student in America and they give me a discount because they know how poor American students are.

A discount. On my hospital bill.

Silicon Valley’s ‘Startup Castle’ is looking for roommates, and the requirements are completely bonkers

““We could just say that we want smart, nice low-maintenance people…but I think everyone would say that,” he added. “We had to be a lot more specific.””

“low maintenance”

Before I actually scrolled to the commentary, I thought this was gonna be some teenage boy’s clueless dating profile. I thought this was some OKcupid shit.

Tuesday, April 21st.

The three hour police standoff in Ferguson this afternoon ended with a SWAT team finding the house to be empty. The man they were searching for, named Lorenzo, had escaped to a nearby church, where people there spoke with him and convinced him to turn himself over to the police. Lorenzo, who is schizophrenic, is currently receiving mental health attention.

california anti-drought measures are always like “take shorter showers! consider brushing your teeth with the sink turned off” and never mention the fact that nestle is bottling all of our fucking water and selling it to people who live in areas with plenty of water

It’s like the Irish potato “famine” I stg

In California, residential use only accounts for 4% of total water use. Industrial use is 80%. Source: http://www.alternet.org/environment/california-fast-running-out-water-blame-it-big-ag

TO THIS DAY I refuse to let white people have the boston tea party shit because they used red clay and paint, dressed up in sacred Native American clothing, and wore headresses so that the tribes in close proximity would get the full brute force of punishment. yall were, are, and always have been cowards when it comes to doing shit and I refuse to let you think your history is amazing
