NO one paying attention didn’t know Republicans (especially the Hitler youth republicans) are nasty, racist, women hating Nazis. I’d also guarantee not one person in this chat was a woman. Anyone who’d date a republican is really not right in the head. 🤮

Truly excited to be teaching an online survey course in Greek literature this fall semester @NewCollegeofFL. Even more excited that it's open to the public. Please join in here! We'll be reading Homer, Aeschylus, Aristophanes, and lots more.

Still working on ways to convince the people that aren't on here, aren't on political spaces, of where the country is right now. Because very few here need to be told to wake up. It's out there that needs to do it.

It's funny, it and the owner isn't trying to convince you it's high art, it's not trying to deceive you, and it's generation isn't replacing someone's labor (it just wouldn't have existed). At best, someone would have probably used an image of Kermit instead.

Why would Photoshop be better?

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

So, try the opposite: Have a governor and with so much control over over the police force that they can order them to stop and frisk every black man they see, and can arrest or shoot them if they fail to comply.

Except I don't get paid for my nonwork time. If you're going to do the calculation the way you did, you have to divide by at least 4000, not 2000. That's why it still costs me zero to mow my own yard rather than pay someone.

I would love to share this with people elsewhere, namely facebook. Is there a good single page summary somewhere that includes all of this information?
