School District Holds Movie Day, Only Lets The... →
bookwoman84: feministhistorian: aim2misbehave: stfuconservatives: The Dallas school district decided to take all fifth graders to see the movie Red Tails.

Thank you
to the guy who helped me right now. On my car, one of the terminals (?) on the battery came loose and the car died in the middle of the intersection where I was trying to turn left. Some guys were yelling that I could’ve made the turn, but I yelled back that I would’ve… had the battery not died. I started pushing my car, I heard a male voice saying he’d help, so I was...
