    The most recent event in any history class I ever took was World War II. Of course, I graduated high school in 1989, so hopefully, they're at least getting to Vietnam by now.

    My youngest son graduated from High School in 2021, and he studied about Vietnam in History.  We he talked to me about it, I told him "that's not history, that's current events".

  2. I’m a straight, white, formerly proud native Texan.  Hell, I’m a native Houstonian.  I happened to be living in Manhattan when my first ex was pregnant with our second son and I sent her back to her parents before he was born so his birth certificate would have Texas on it.  If my current circumstances with my mom would even remotely allow it, I would pack my dog and my regarded daughter into my truck, hit the road and never look back.  I would head down the Pan-American highway and stop when I found a beach we liked.

    CDC was asked about this at a fake town hall.  His answer was that the company that did it went out of business during Covid and is not coming back, but feel free to start your own bus company.

    If only there was some quasi governmental entity that received money from taxpayers and owned a lot of buses

    Yeah, abuse of labor happens in white collar jobs, too. Doesn’t make it right. If you want to get compensated for your overtime, go get a job at the port or a factory or any other number of jobs that are non-exempt. I’ve gotta admit, there have been times in my career that I’ve been sitting in my office well after the sun went down thinking that I should’ve chosen a different career path.

    If they wanted more money, maybe they should have chosen a different career path.  Just because both sides are wrong doesn't mean the U.S. economy should crater.  I want my cheap shit from China.

    No doubt Sark was frustrated yesterday.  But I did like his perspective about facing some adversity and how that was good for this team.  

     

    I wasn’t a math major, but does new math say that 13 is less than 13?

    fuck, I meant to quote the post above that.  I guess I wasn’t a social media major either.
