A girl in a science class at OU got a bad grade for a paper she turned in on gender that only cited her interpretation of the bible. She complained to the university and now the university is punishing the professor of the course.
Turning Point at OU posted this girl's essay in full and man is it rough

And part of why Apple is able to charge a premium is because a lot of folks had a bad android experience a few years ago and now refuse to switch. Which I get. iPhone has its advantages and arguably Apple cares more about your privacy than Google.
yes, I feel like you can safely ignore anyone who tells you with a straight face in 2025 that you can just do without a smartphone
This article makes really good points about the inability of most people to cut expenses without entirely losing the ability to participate in the economy. I get tired of people telling me to live cheaper by eliminating things that are necessary for modern life.

To be clear, Skandalakis assigned this case to himself. And I disagree with his assessment.
Anyone with this kind of bullshit take of that infamous "find me 11,780 votes" call to Sec. of State Raffensperger was never going to prosecute Trump, Meadows, & the other defendants:

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.
