Funny....All of a sudden, no one's performing arbitrary sex-change operations on unexpecting grade-schoolers anymore.

'Just say thank you': Lutnick says Canada is acting like Ukraine

nationalpost.com/news/canada/...
Lutnick: Think about it. The biggest trading partner in the whole world that is vital to Canada’s existence says, “I’m unhappy,” and they respond negatively, you know why? Because for 20 years, 30 years, they’ve gotten away with it. It’s like Ukraine. They came in. You imagine coming into this country, sitting in the Oval Office, having received $300 billion in aid from U.S. and military and NATO and all the rest, and the first words out of your mouth aren’t thank you. Just say thank you. God knows, just say thank you. When the biggest client, the biggest trading partner, the most important counter-party you have, who really, really matters to you, the first thing you do is showing immeasurable respect. Say, “Thank you. I want to work it out with you. I want you to be happy.”

Nothing says “party of the everyman” quite like two born-to-riches nepo baby billionaires selling $80,000+ cars on the White House lawn.

A decade ago, one of the most brilliant authors of modern times left our world. His books inspired me to become a writer, but most importantly, helped me become a better person. Discworld changed my life, shaped my views, and sharpened my wits.

GNU Terry Pratchett. Thank you. I'll never forget.
A tribute to Sir Terry Pratchett. TEXT (poem): The sun goes down upon the Ankh, And slowly, softly fades - Across the Drum; the Royal Bank; The River-Gate; the Shades. A stony circle's closed to elves; And here, where lines are blurred, Between the stacks of books on shelves, A quiet 'Ook' is heard. A copper steps the city-street On paths he's often passed; The final march; the final beat; The time to rest at last. He gives his badge a final shine, And sadly shakes his head - While Granny lies beneath a sign That says: 'I aten't dead.' The Luggage shifts in sleep and dreams; It's now. The time's at hand. For where it's always night, it seems, A timer clears of sand. And so it is that Death arrives, When all the time has gone... But dreams endure, and hope survives, And Discworld carries on. – Poem_For_Your_Sprog, 12 March 2015 Text (dedication): GNU Sir Terry Pratchett. 1948-2015. "What can the harvest hope for, if not for the care of the Reaper Man?" Background artwork by u/braxzy on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/s/1FSxdtMEjh

This is an embarrassment for Yale. It’s a grime time and things are going to keep getting grimmer if universities jump at shadows from fear of Trumpism.

If you teach at Yale I sure hope ChatGPT doesn’t say you kidnapped the Lindbergh baby or something.
