  1. Past hour
  2. That’s sophistry. It was certainly politically motivated hacking, but since we unfortunately live in an era when literal Nazis are out in public again, we probably shouldn’t say it was “Nazis” unless actual fascist white nationalists is who we are talking about. That said, it really doesn’t matter. Mamdani has presented himself as a champion of working people and minorities, and while this this has clearly made him appealing in NYs affluent and well creative class, his support has not been very strong with black and working class voters. Claiming to be “black or African American” as a person with two Indian parents will make that worse. It looks like an attempt to access a racial preference that was made available at Columbia to address the long term structural inequities that resulted from black African slavery, and you know that. And he almost certainly knew it when he checked the box on a technicality. I know a rich white guy who was born in Nigeria. Is he African American? I know multiple Afrikaans people whose parents fled when apartheid ended- should they be able to access affirmative action? Of course not and you know that too. Speaking as the kind of person who comes from a working class background that Mamdani needs to win the general: this looks like yet another example of the children of privilege attempting to cut the line.

  5. Nicole, it’s time to let it go. Please don’t become ctj or Brisket.
  6. A teacher who allegedly chugged booze and hurled curse words at students during a lesson that she interrupted to have them dance the Macarena has been fired. Alice Ashton from the UK was swigging from a water bottle full of orange liquid which smelled of alcohol and blaring music from her laptop during the health class, one of her 16-year-old students told a hearing on Tuesday, reported the Telegraph. She also called students “little s—ts” and “put her middle finger two to three inches” from another teen’s face during the “out of control” class at Ysgol Bro Caereinion school in Welshpool, Wales, in January last year. The usually “reserved and quiet” teacher’s classes on alcohol and drug awareness were normally “boring,” a student told the hearing of the Education Workforce Council Wales panel. But before the class, she was spotted swigging from a water bottle that had an “alcoholic smell,” the unidentified student told the hearing. “She was very, very close to us. There was a slight alcoholic smell. She was very, very lively and quite animated and speaking with her hands. In other lessons, she was more reserved and quiet,” the student said, as reported by LBC. “[She] asked the class to make the Macarena. She played music and we were not doing work,” the student said. Ashton’s sloppy behavior came just four months after she had been convicted of drunk-driving, the fitness-to-practice hearing heard. The “water” bottle Ashton had in her class was almost empty by the end of the class, the students said. Ashton “kept jumping up from her desk” and was becoming “irritated” as the class went on, at point getting right in an unruly teen’s face, the student said. Ashton denied that she had sung or sworn at students in an internal school review, but multiple witnesses came forward to describe the chaotic scene. “She got some students dancing to the laptop and speakers and it spiraled out of control,” a second teenager said. CCTV footage from the class that day corroborated the students’ stories, the panel said. “It is totally untenable to suggest the music is being played as background music,” presenting officer Lewis Harris said, as reported by LBC. “The evidence is very clear that Miss Ashton did not remain at the front of the class. She invited pupils to dance.” She might be quite rude. A little hard to tell:
  7. Kamado Joe Big Block is one coal I will not use. They've repeatedly had quality issues over the years where a batch will be undercured, and then will leave heavy chemical taste in your meat. Meat costs too much to risk that.
  8. Lunch in downtown Berlin at Erdinger am Gendarmenmarket. I had the best non-alcoholic beer I've ever tasted. Erdinger Alkohol Frei. Been on the wagon since August 25th and staying the course. The site where once was Hitler’s bunker. Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Gray slabs with no names on a slope that pulls you in. I had thought I wanted to see a concentration camp, but this was about all I could take.

  10. I grew up in south Texas. Shit like that happened seemingly every day
  11. I think the DP discussion is an important one to have. Lots of heartfelt and thoughtful responses in this thread. Meanwhile, there are a ton of assholes in the true crime community posting that they STILL believe he is 100% innocent. Even after the plea deal. I do not understand this. They believe he was simply driving around stargazing that night. And that he has been framed. I can’t with this. I have been sparring with these fucktards for the better part of two years online. His Papa Roger fans. there will likely forever be a mystery surrounding the murder weapon and other questions people may have about the crime that the state isn’t able to answer. Maybe the killer will someday. Will some of those answers ever help the families heal? I don’t know. I just know that a person doesn’t take four consecutive life sentences along with a burglary charge and waive all rights to any and all appeals if they ain’t guilty. We all know there would be years of appeals were he to be found guilty by a jury and sentenced to death. And no one knows how a trial could go. So many chances to roll the dice for him. One of his super fans could have stealthed their way onto a jury. I think people confuse chaos for conspiracy in this case. What he did was similar in some ways (minus the sexual component and number of deceased) to what Ted Bundy did 47 years ago at the Chi Omega house. Kohberger is no different in my view. A psychopath walking around in human skin. my two cents. These fans of Bryan’s: These fucking people suck. All that’s left is for the families to face him on July 23-24th. And after that the gag order is over once he’s shuffled off to live behind bars in the dark recesses of his mind. Trying to still fool his parents he ain’t a fucking monster. 👺
  12. I already told the weather people to give us an overcast day. No blazing sun. Just cloud coverage.
  13. Today
  14. Barack: we’re going to hold an NBA game on the WH grounds. Fox: SACRILEGE! Making a mockery of sacred ground. Trump: we’re hold a UFC fight on the WH grounds. Fox: BRILLIANT! A man of the people.
  15. Yeah who would possibly do such a thing like kill first responders? Oh, right.
  16. Waking up thinking today is Saturday since wife was off yesterday and I knew I’d be off today.
  17. Barry working overnight.
  18. It’s time…

  20. got you covered
  21. Maybe they've tried and didn't get any bites? I'm sure many recruits have a very high price to become a techtard and rightfully so.
  22. Son is an ER Nurse and contest. All hands (no pun intended) on deck. He’ll get 1-1/2OT this whole weekend, as SA residents are stupid! He’s seen some so bad that the MD just says we might as well amputate. Hook’em!!!
  23. Stupid format, just have a 2-night DH and swap teams to avoid possible pairing such as UT/SC. UT/UCLA UT/Duke
