Dumpster. Fire.

@jon-nyc said in YouTube bans medical misinformation: @George-K I think we have data that blowing smoke up the rectum works. cf, the GOP since the fat guy came down the elevator. The socially advantageous midwittery of Trump hatred, on the other hand, collects only those with firm rational connections to reality.

In order to make that a good move AB, would have to be paying the skins to take the beer.

I'd bet making him wait was part of the interview. Maybe it was one of the big issues internally, and they're looking for someone to be able to tighten things up without causing more issues from the offended classes. Someone should design a virtually silent little remote controlled car (I mean size of a matchbox) that could cruise around the office area listening to what people are talking about, transcribed to your cell phone. It would be great to finally get in to the actual interview, totally ahead of their game, while your stealth car-ita automatically finds its way out of the building to a predetermined secret hiding place. Yes, another million-dollar idea given to you all for free!

Damn. I thought this was going to be a Garland thread.

Keeping land in Hawaiian hands is a very big deal there. Understandable.

Ha. She wouldn't divorce him, he's too close to the grave.

My faith in the green movement has been destroyed.

Uh, no you don't.

Years ago, Normal School was the minimum teaching requirement for K-6, at least down here. That's basically two years education and training past the high school level. It worked. Don't see why it wouldn't work today.

Lump this in with the news source thread.

Just like the face on Mars!!! [image: viking-face-on-mars.jpg]

@jon-nyc said in Get some popcorn: @89th said in Get some popcorn: These schools see “affirmation of gender” as a simple act of kindness. But in reality it is a powerful psychosocial intervention which is itself subject to iatrogenic harm. It’s telling them ‘this is the right course for you’, often putting them on a path that leads to sterilization, and surgery. I think it varies. Some simply see it as a kindness, but some see it as a Holy Purpose of theirs and take delight and glee in reporting abnormally large numbers of students that are socially transitioning. No matter their intent, the simple fact that they feel justified in obscuring these facts and not consulting with the parents let alone allowing the parents to take the lead in these conversations is abominable and shows a staggering level of narcissism that is endangering these children. Loss of licensure is not enough. Any teacher or administrator that took it upon themselves to assist a child’s transition without parental consent needs to face criminal charges. I am simply flabbergasted that ANYBODY can approve. It is so fundamentally flawed and frigging evil. I blame Hilary “it takes a village” God Damn Clinton and everyone that believes similar.

@taiwan_girl said in Locked in a closet for 5 months.: Ok, Not a nice guy, but does not excuse how he is treated (if what he says is true.) Why would we believe anything he says? He sounds like a complete psycho.

Conservative Christian schools are quite common here.

Watch the Vivek interview on TuCa's Twitter - go to about 25:00...

Very interesting. There are two things that amaze me about aircraft. Their ridiculous longevity (B-52, anyone?) How long it takes to go from concept, to prototype to production. With respect to #2, go back 80 years and look at the run-up to WWII. Was it (literally) decades for an idea to come to fruition?

Nice to see that they have remained friends for so long!
