Holy shit, we might actually need armed guards at schools after all. To protect the kids from ICE.

I'm just picturing the train cars filled with Jews, but with the Amazon logo on the side.

"you're still alive? You own a house? You're dating a divorced mom and her and her daughter moved in? You have 4 cats?"

I was really depressed and had undiagnosed ADHD. I genuinely believed that I wouldn't make it to 30. I was sure that my life was going to end at my own hand. I also didn't think I was worthy of love or that I'd ever find a woman who I could have a relationship with.

So yea, my 19 year old self would be very surprised that I exist at all.

I wish clients would prioritize low seed torrents.

I disable queuing and just have a bandwidth cap on my torrent client. Technically, I'm seeding thousands of torrents and don't have any issue.

Occasionally when I go to clean up some torrents (like when migrating servers) I purge based on most seeders first and never kill anything below 3 seeds.

Teachers, like all employees, are expected to follow the law.

No. If a law is unjust and immoral it is the imperitive of everyone at the district to disobey it.

Just because it is law, does not make it right.

He's turning the USA into a penny stock.

As an American... Don't. Let this Republican administration deal with it's angry constituents. Make it hard for us, and make it very clear whose fault it is.

CDC should just ignore him. These people only have the power you give them. Every individual can just be simply disobedient. Keep doing your job and ignore what the Republican clowns in charge direct you to do.

Oh I'm not stopping. Just pointing out how this is hurting people's retirement.

My 401k today is $520 less than what it was Jan 21st. I put in almost $600 every 2 weeks.

That's a good chunk of change that just disappeared. I can only imagine how much someone with a bigger retirement account than I have is hurting.

Could be around when there were Canadian trumpers and the whole trucker protest thing.
