    @Axtremus said in Sage’s Law: @LuFins-Dad said in Sage’s Law: The very fact that schools FOR ANY REASON withhold information from students legal guardians and custodians is so completely outrageous and is a complete violation of the compact made between educators and parents. Exceptions are reasonable when legal guardians/custodians are reasonably believed to be the abusers inflicting harm on the students. This is one of those cases where you like talking out of your ass because you think it's fun to piss people off by peddling your simpleton propaganda. We do actually have a system in place to determine whether information should be withheld from legal guardians and it sure as fuck isn't, "whatever the Math teacher thinks is okay." None of this has anything to do with gender, but their making it so led to this tragedy.

    @jon-nyc said in The view out my window right now: No filters, just a straightup shot on an iPhone 11. That's obvious. The window bumped the blacks by about +50. Nice one.

    In a statement Tuesday, the embattled congressman thanked the speaker for “allowing me to take time to properly clear my name.” He misspelled “change”

    It's shocking how many of those are one hit wonders. Even more shocking is how many I've never heard. I'll get off your lawn now...

    I honestly don't get any of this. It occurred to me that there were two sets of virtues, the résumé virtues and the eulogy virtues. The résumé virtues are the skills you bring to the marketplace. The eulogy virtues are the ones that are talked about at your funeral — whether you were kind, brave, honest or faithful. Were you capable of deep love? Really, it's those two things? That's life? Build your career and be a saint? "Lips" Kudlow from freaking Anvil even has a better perspective: "All you've got are your relationships and your experiences." Separate that out a little more, and you've got: are you learning what you need to learn to be helpful to yourself (and then by extension, other people) are you building on your professional skills so that you don't stagnate, and you learn to contribute in greater ways to and for others are you doing right by your friends and family are you having fun by doing constructive things with your time If you're at least attempting to get on some kind of upward trajectory with those, those two silly pop morality notions of virtue work themselves out.

    @LuFins-Dad you’re looking at the west side of the building. The 4th floor balcony also faces the alley to the North. No awning there!

    Wilson is 34. He should have 2 or 3 good years left. They need offensive line help. Bad. Denver is about $10M under the cap, which should roll over into next year. They have no first or second round picks in 2023. They do have two picks in the third round. I predict Payton drafts a guard in the third and a TE. He's either going to trade for a center or most likely will get a FA. Don't be surprised if Can't Guard Mike follows Sean to Denver.
