The 4:30 class? Three people. New personal record.
One day I will finally learn to cancel Tuesday classes as well (morning class had seven people show up; afternoon class, only six).
Sex is great, but have you ever canceled your classes the Wednesday before Thanksgiving?

My first post to go viral here was a joke about how, since Thanksgiving was created by Lincoln in 1864 to celebrate Union victories, you should really burn a Confederate flag to properly celebrate it. Oh but how the humor-impaired and "Actually..." brigade weighed in on that... Good times. Ha.

This quality of villain is why we should let the Bond franchise die.
If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

I wrote about the fake account blowup on X this weekend. A genuine post-truth nightmare and proof that these companies have polluted their platforms so thoroughly and traded reality for profit that they've undermined the very idea of what the internet is supposed to be.
