The Occasionally Peaceable Reactions of Everett True

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Legacy admission students aren't usually that quiet about it. In my college experience, a lot of them will tell you of their legacy stars with zero prompting. I don't think that penalty will inhibit universities at all.

Instead, start cracking down on collegiate sports for colleges that break the law. UCs and CSUs will comply with this if you write the law so that college athletes are prohibited from playing ranked sports with other colleges until all legacy admissions are banned and anyone who got in via legacy is kicked out. But of course Newsom would never do that - it's catastrophically unpopular! He can't stand being the tiniest bit unpopular, he's gonna try to be President someday! Screw that guy.

This is what AI should be used for. There's another great article on the same site about using AI to find qanats too which was fascinating.

Whenever anyone asks me what fictional universe I want to live in, I say the Culture universe. Hands down the best sci-fi universe to live in as a regular humanoid. It's a post-scarcity galactic paradise where if I ever get bored, I can plug into a Matrix-style simulation of any other fictional universe that's 100% real to my senses. Or I'll take any of a number of drugs that a gland in my brain can generate at will for shiggles. The possibilities are limitless.

I'll take a shot at this if you first explain what commonalities you see between this guy and Harris. I'm interested to see why you think they're at all similar.

Make homelessness illegal, but don't worry! You can just buy a house and then you'll be home! That's why people are homeless, right? Because they just refuse to buy homes? Fuck, I wish CA would get a governor that's not transparently gunning to be president someday. Maybe we'd get actual help and not virtue signaling horseshit like this.

Oh dip, they're demanding an answer this time. He's gonna have to respond or else they'll.... checks papers oh, they'll just demand it again. Must be nice to avoid any and all repercussions from breaking the law over and over and over again.

Well boo-friggin-hoo! Nobody's holding a gun to his head and forcing him to run. His legal problems are 100% his own damn fault, and he's putting the whole country up for sale to the highest bidder in order to evade restitution. I eagerly await the day when I never have to hear about this blowhard moron ever again.

Nah, nah, friendo. That's John McEntee and he's a die hard Trump acolyte. Fascists ain't cute. What we're looking at here is a punchable face.

That wasn't witchcraft! What she did was Headology, plain and simple. Far more efficient. All you have to do is make the recipient understand that the lies they tell themselves in the dark corners of their mind are flimsy untruths that everyone can see through.

She played his ass like neon orange ten cent kazoo. With a giant button on top labeled "Insecurity Complex". Little wonder that he's chickening out of further debates now. Though, I expect he'll make a lot of noise about doing a debate on Fox. Or Newsmax. Or maybe on RT, live from Moscow.

Sucks to suck Donnie.
