There is nothing more antisemitic than someone that conflates anti-zionism with antisemitism. Those who do believe that an entire race and religion are morally culpable for the actions of an evil government. That’s like being racist against Germans today because of what Hitler did in the 30s and 40s.
We’ll have to add a bunch of literal Nazi propaganda. And not as examples of vile hatred, but presented seriously as an argument to “both sides” the Holocaust.
Thanks!
They’re fine…until you see the monolithic concrete dome home!
I want a house that laughs at tornadoes, earthquakes, and the rare simultaneous tornadoquake.
I’m going to enjoy torturing my 14-year-old self. My 14-year-old self was a shithead. But I was raised in a conservative Catholic house, and at that age I firmly embraced the version of reality common among the Fox News set. I was that annoying conservative high schooler. Sure I was repping hard, but I was still an idiot.
Now I’m a late-30s trans woman, about to celebrate 8 years of marriage to my wonderful husband.
The things I can say. I’m going to haunt this kid’s dreams.
You asked a question no one can answer.
Instead of asking impossible questions, I suggest just using a bit of logic. Officially, YouTube removed the like/dislike because they felt people were prejudging videos before viewing them themselves. Unofficially, people speculate they did it to have greater control of what people watch. But in either case, such a change would only make sense if plenty of people were checking the ratio prior to viewing. If no one ever paid attention to it, then there wouldn’t be anything to be gained by tampering with it.
Yeah that’s what I figured. I was just really baked last night. This thought came into my head based on a conversation I was having with someone, and I just thought the idea hilarious. Just imagining some guard getting sentenced and going, “wait…I still get to keep my job, right?”
I mean, what exactly is wrong with it? Age gap aside, I really don’t see anything wrong with say a young faculty member getting with an undergrad. Imagibe a prof in their late twenties and an undergrad in their early twenties. As long as the student isn’t one of their current or likely future students, I see nothing morally wrong with it. Now if it’s a 50 year old prof with a 19 year old student, that’s a different matter. But the problem there is the age gap, not the prof/student status.
In a just world, you’d have been bumped up a grade, moved into an advanced track, or given time in advanced sessions with other gifted students. That said, your teacher would have been responsible for making those recommendations.
Oh that did end up happening eventually. I did go down that track. Ended up taking calculus freshman year of high school.
This is Paul Harvey…Good Day!
When I was a child, I was told that Communism failed because it gave no incentive for people to work hard and better themselves and their society. After all, if everyone is paid the same and has a guaranteed job, why worker harder than than anyone else? As an adult, I learned the same thing applies to workers in capitalist societies. In most companies, there is little reason to do more than the bare minimum needed to keep from getting fired. Promotions never happen as companies prefer to hire externally. Real raises and bonuses don’t happen; you have to move companies to get a real raise. And of course, workers don’t get any direct reward for working more. The owners just pocket all the profits and tell you to work harder.
I turns out both American Capitalism and Soviet Communism wasted colossal amounts of human potential.

My worst version of this was in third grade where we learned our multiplication tables. Our teacher had us all make multiplication flashcards. 1x1 up through 12x12. She then assigned us to spend a certain amount of hours practicing the flashcards, including some log and parental sign-off IIRC. A card might have “3x8” written on one side, “24” on the other. Practice and drill until you memorize them all.
Well, the problem I had was that I memorized my times tables in a fraction of the time we were required to practice. I ended up getting in trouble for not having enough practice hours - even though I was acing the quizzes we were getting. This wasn’t even about showing your work, as this was a rote exercise in memorization!
But the teacher thought that it took X number of hours of practice to learn your times tables. That’s what she assigned, and nothing was going to change her mind. So I sat at home pointlessly practicing the times tables I had already memorized, instead of doing something fun or even moving ahead to more advanced math concepts.
Ok. Next time you meet a genie wish for “immunity to all electric shocks.”
Defibrillators probably wouldn’t work on you. But in turn you can pull off an instant nudity button!

Congress can already directly overturn Supreme Court rulings via either jurisdiction stripping or by expanding the size of the court.
