#WALlvRSA is playing out basically exactly like we all thought it would. An inauspicious start to a sports day for me that will end with the Commonwealth Cup.

As someone who worked as a student in the university call center trying to raise money our system has a field for "reason for refusal". I strongly encourage any NU or other alums to clearly state this as the reason for not giving when you get called.
BREAKING: Northwestern University has agreed to pay the U.S. Treasury $75 million, over the course of three years as part of an agreement with the federal government to restore funding and end investigations into the university

It is I. The apple pie hater. A creature many thought was just legend, but I promise I exist.
No one actually thinks there are any types of pie that are bad. Now you'll try to prove me wrong by looking up some intentionally bad pie. We're not doing that. You know what I mean. Everyone really thinks all normal pie types are good

You know he wanted to put motherfucking in the middle of the final JD Vance.
Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

One of the things about hardline RTO policy I legit don't understand is how it actually kills productivity because of no flexibility. Like after being hospitalized for a week with a bad allergic reaction I could come back to work faster cuz I could WFH.

I said the same thing when they were including daycare in BBB(thanks Manchin). But this would be even more important.
Stand this up asap. And get elected Dems at every level involved. Yeah the fascists will bitch and try and shut it down, but actually helping people is more important.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

It's amazing how people take the fact that they weren't aware of something in childhood as proof it didn't exist.
