  1. it's also not UNfair. it just HAPPENS. over the years i've explained that to a number of young people in my life, when they've faced challenges and obstacles and wanted to claim victimhood... life is NOT out to 'get you' and it is not inherently unfair or unjust...it just IS. a lot of shit just happens and it's up to the individual to assess and respond accordingly - that's where the responsibility lies. life really doesn't give a shit one way or another. maybe i need to talk to these millennial white boys 🤔😄
  2. oh so we've heard enough about the US government kidnapping people and sending them to a foreign torture camp, that's so old news 🙄
  3. ok what the hell even is that Tulane mascot!
  4. ...and post-covid the rest decided they were never going to a movie theater again ☹️
  5. oh that's good
  6. i don't know enough depth about the topic to add anything wholly substantive either way, other than my own anecdote as a white genx female in IT, married to an AA boomer, i definitely have a sense of 'welcome to the party, pal!' towards white millennial male discrimination grievances. like, i get it, but...so? whole groups got a real shit deal for the vast majority of this country's history...and to fix it it seems like another group who traditionally has had it much easier than all those other groups now also might kind of be getting a shit deal? okay...as someone said above, the reality is we are ALL getting a super shit deal right now. so now what? 😕 anyways, mainly i would like to say that other than the expected suspects flinging their usual pop-in troll bs (moreso in the other thread actually)... both this and the MN fraud thread are good examples of intelligent people discussing/arguing the actual merits of a topic including nuance, facts and figures, and varying perspectives. not necessarily finding agreement, but just being able to have/read these discussions with a minimum of trolls poo-flinging is rather refreshing. kudos to most of the participants. i mean where am i??
  7. has anybody mentioned that JMU scored 31 more points than aggy, on the road, against #6?
  8. lol this shit is always so funny...an apocalyptic scale and magnitude and ubiquitousness of grift and corruption and cruelty and incompetence befalls us daily but one ohhhgotcha! and they're baaack trying to dunk 😄 very aggy
  9. this is legend...what everybody always wants to say about aggy but doesn't bc decorum/sportsmanship etc. but Miami is Miami and don't give a fuck 🤣🤣🤣
  10. took me 8 with a 4 year hiatus in the middle. going back and finishing is the best decision of my life, probably will be yours, too. congratulations! 🤘
  11. doubtful, i bet they encounter the friendliest and most helpful aggies who help them find Kyle and they are blown away by the awe-inspiring atmosphere, they'll probably even want to send their kids there!
  12. ok. now i might feel a little sorry for the kicker. but not really ahhahahahaha 🤣 🤣 🤣
  13. ahhahahahaha 🤣
  14. i am so glad to be retired... like 60% of my staff were Indians on work visas, they all had to travel somewhere annually to renew, others were naturalized...the stress and worry would be insane, and trying to manage a big team like that in this environment, under the 'leadership' in Texas would... not be healthy for me 😐 godspeed to all of them, good people, but i really don't want to hear about it if the worst happened/happens 😕
  15. i don't understand what that is...homeschool, but for the full voucher $$ they get like UIL sports training/ competition? so you still have to do all the education work yourself with no subsidies to help?
  16. aren't a lot of them just...quitting? cowards
  17. well this is different 😳
  18. i can see it, she's already nailed the piercing stare and speech cadence and he's got the creep factor.
