Nice

Good piece. Lots going on. I have held the belief that the return to the classroom has been window dressing and that we will soon see mass school closings again. But the fiction of reopening had to be played out in order for the closings to be accepted.

Maybe.

The charter schools operate under a little different set of rules. They haven't been sending entire classrooms home. They monitor the class closely after a case, but they carry on. Believe it or not, they have not had a big outbreak, even though the state has been pretty hot.

It’s like a mash up of Huckleberry Finn and Forest Gump.

I'm sure they will show him lots of love in prison.

When Chicago closed down, D1 (who lives in the Rogers Park area) commented how many more police sirens she was hearing. Her neighborhood is pretty safe, but she found that she also heard gunfire not infrequently.

Ax has lots of Yersinia pestis. Buckets full.
Right Ax? I could have sworn you started a troll thread on the subject.
Even if I'm wrong, I bet he has more than anyone else has.
I'll bet he has even more than anyone else wants.
He's got lots.
Hope I'm being clear on how full he is of it.
Really. NOT kidding.

@Horace said in Protesting for housing resegregation:

It's about power. If a group of people feels like they chose what happened, it doesn't really matter what actually happened. That's why the best way to manipulate people is to make them think they chose what was actually chosen for them and in service of someone else.

If I understand you correctly - I agree with you! LOL

@Sweet-Meteor said in Asteroid 2011 ES4:

Because of its size, the space rock most likely wouldn't have posed any danger to people on the ground had it struck our planet.

Interesting. I thought something that size if it hit land would cause alot of damage.

The one in Siberia (1908 explosion) was about 150 -200 feet in diameter and did incredible damage. I know this one is much smaller, but still......

I tried to take the test. The maketing questions after were so voluminous and noxious that I quit.

I'm not that guy anyway. I went out on my own specifically to eliminate those people from my life. They are rampant in the consulting world.

And she hasn’t had Covid! It works!!!!!

Long-acting too! She stopped taking over two years ago!

W1NN4rZ!

@Loki said in "Rethinking my tweet about Rush Limbaugh' s cancer":

I guess we can be against so many things but wishing death on some bad people is woke. Get with the program.

FIFY

@Mik said in Aqua, think your office sucks?:

Not a polar bear.

Actually, them too. That’s why they’re so pissed off.

She should be named Ingreta.

@George-K said in The "My Pillow" guy:

I have no opinion on how good or bad his products are. Consumer Reports, last time I looked, said "meh."

I just saw an ad of him hawking his book, where he talks about his drug problems, and recovery from the lowest depths of despair.

Good for him.

But...

In the ad he says that he "mathematically proves that God exists."

ORLY?

@89th said in Forum slow - resolved (hopefully):

Thanks @Klaus !

Seen on Twitter. Incendiary but surely a risk.

Let's not lose the forest for the trees on the "white docs kill black babies" paper. The big picture is that 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘣𝘶𝘯𝘬𝘦𝘥 it will be used by every med school in the country to justify admitting people who flunked organic chemistry.

@Klaus said in Well, that doesn't happen every day...:

From what I understand (which is very little), the key to make death by hanging as painless as possible is to fall from considerable height.

Need to break the neck.

It didn't go very well. They had no choice but to disable the chat room feature before Warren even spoke because they were inundated with people making fun of Warren and the DNC for scheduling her as a speaker.

The democrats are falling apart. A poll taken 2 days after Biden announced Kamala Harris was his pick for VP, non white support for Biden crashed by 21%. Blacks HATE Harris. Trumps poll numbers jumped up 10 points. Now they've pissed away any native American support they had.

The democrats couldn't organize a trip to the bathroom.

This is SO much fun!! Hahahahaaaaa
