EQAO is this really dumb standardized test that grade 3s, 6s, 9s, and 10s have to do in Ontario on literacy and math. It's supposed to help the province understand how kids are doing, or at least that's what they say, but really its a big waste. Students hate it because it stresses them out, teachers hate it because it is a waste of their time to teach the students, and parents hate it because they hate when their kids are stressed.
Ontario funnels way to much money into EQAO. They are the evilest questions. EVIL QUESTIONS are ATTACKING ONTARIO! HELP!
A stupid literacy test for Grade 10's in Ontario that is not useful in anyway. It is standardized and does not compensate kids with different learning styles and Learning Disabilities

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"
FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
