The absolute best way is immersion. Full on survival, sink or swim, daily brain exhaustion to cram information in that you will use, over and over.

Short of that, finding ways to practice using the language is the key. Listening to videos is fine, but you need to simulate thinking and responding to make the language part of what your brain goes to. Find people online to talk to via Zoom or discord. I like to think of conservations I have and translate them in Google and re-run the interaction 4 or 5 times in the second language.

For numbers, find videos online that are things like lottery draws.

Bon chance!

....I can't find it.

Where's the Ed Sheeran bit? I'm sure there's a reference in there.

Is he the carrot? He's the carrot, isn't he?

He's pro "Do the thing that gets me money." He has zero idea how crypto works. He has no idea how a friggin' electric car works.

They tapped out people in fixed incomes donating $50 at a time to his "legal defense" slush fund, and this is the next level of letting his broligarch funders use him as a what he is, a brand name, to fleece the undereducated and zealots.

Because thats what passes for being "funny" online. Being a gross weirdo in public for likes and coopting anyone nearby into extras for simply having existed.

But hey, I bet they'll get a pardon if they need it ;)

1 out of 16 states. In 1 out of 27 countries.

Where is Estonia or Finland or the Netherlands to set the bar higher?

Yeah, but it's all piecemeal and small batches of workstations. There's no full national scale moves.

Is there a hidden Ed Sheeran reference here I'm not getting?

Is this a Balkan joke or something?

You're saying that being angry makes it acceptable to be stupid as well. That being downtrodden not only doesn't offer the opportunity to be smart about it, that instead the oppressed can't be free to do much other than be hateful assholes.

Cool. Cool cool cool. Was that already written inside your MAGA hat from a factory in China? Or did you have to write it in there next to your own name so you didn't forget that either?

Edit: the last part is slight /s since I know you don't really mean that, but its a slippery slope.

Yeah, it's listed on their wiki as a possible reason.

Suffocating a struggling zebra requires a healthy song jaw and teeth. One wrong tooth starts to hurt and suddenly the lion can't hunt large prey anymore. Humans are very easy to kill relative to usual lion prey, so we're the blended ham and peas at the nursing home.
