We’re also going to add a consent workshop that’s going to dispel gender constructs. I think I’m going to become a power bottom. That’s right folks. Many are saying it.

I agree. This is the way As someone w/ a CJ background, all you need to ask law enforcement is “am I being detained,” & if they say yes, then “I want a lawyer” They can detain you for 24 hrs, basically w/out charge, but you should never, ever be talking to cops w/out a lawyer present. It’ll go bad

I hope he gets buried relatively near me so I can show his grave the same level of compassion and respect he showed so many marginalized people he disagreed with Idk if any one person has done more damage through his creation of the Moral Majority, and linking the religious right to the GOP

I’m going to educate my kid the old fashioned way: With hours of Joe Rogan podcasts and nothing but PragerU content

This past semester was by far the worst I’ve had with students seemingly giving away their critical thinking skills in the name of accomplishing everything “faster and easier” with AI tools

lithub.com/what-happene... Maybe not exactly what you’re looking for, but I’m planning on using this one this fall as a means by which to demonstrate how new technologies can be used by industry to either take skills from workers, or more insidiously, cause workers just to give their skills away

Well Bill, I’ll gladly take you up on this proposal Let’s take a cohort of kids that I educate, at a publicly funded university, & you take the best crop from “Alpha School” I guarantee you my kids will know more about critical thinking & other life skills than any kid in this con

No, in fact, you do not owe respect, politeness, or courtesy to people who’s worldview advances the oppression & elimination of people they don’t like Racism, misogyny, and bigotry are not on the same level as empathy, acceptance, & progress They’re not the same & I’m tired of pretending otherwise

Can you imagine A Christmas Carol with Trump instead of Scrooge? He’d learn absolutely none of the lessons the ghosts were trying to teach, he wouldn’t grow at all as a person, and the story would end with him being a worse person than when it started

Waters is no different than the countless others in this admin (& historically the Nazis were the same) who don’t believe in anything Whatever is most expedient & makes the most money, that’s what they “believe” in And damn the consequences, because they never have to deal with any of them

I’m still seeing people go “lol, I’m just not a violent person though!” Cool. When the secret police come for you, be sure to let them know that. I’m sure it’ll make a difference We don’t get to choose the times we live in, but at least don’t be a coward & shrink away from the moment

Those movies taught me a lot of life lessons John Connor’s friend led the way on the “no snitching” rule Sarah Connor knew AI was a terrible thing for humanity And it is objectively cool to shoot a minigun at police squad cars

I beg to differ, it gets funnier & funnier There’s literally no way to deflect from the point Newsome is making, either He threw your idiot demagogue & his dumb ramblings right back in your face, & there’s no counter argument to even make You got highlighted as the fools you consistently are

We definitely don’t have any laws that explicitly prohibit federal troops from being used as law enforcement Incentivizing people to report “crime” always turns out well too So funny how the “don’t tread on me” crowd has no issues w/ a federal troop invasion/takeover of an American city

I logged in and (allegedly) reported a multiple-time convicted felon & sex predator residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave One of the reporting options is threatening violence against law enforcement or other govt officials, so he definitely qualifies And it’s anonymous

Mr. Grand Wizard was in the middle of assembling a giant, lowercase “t” as he patiently answered my questions He insisted he wasn’t a racist, but that it was simple “race science” that proved non-whites were superior to other races I still hope to solve the mystery of the burning cross in my yard

It took a grad-level HIST class before I heard probably the absolute worst about slavery. That’s insultingly late in the education system IMO Slave ships for instance were a living hell & I can’t emphasize enough how little aspects like that are talked about Slavery was abject horror nonstop, 24/7
