Rolling start??

Edit: or just formation

I prefer to stand up at the last moment and reach the microwave as it beeps. It's fun to have audible confirmation on your inner timing.

It's funny to see lemmings not like fireworks. First time the reaction to fireworks has been to cry.

Nonviolent direct action has earned them the label "terrorists."

When Picard says humans have changed, and the topic are the scales of justice, I think he's right that the measure of humanity is higher than in the past, and that they've truly hit some critical milestone on their journey, and that they've earned more time.

Other times Picard seems to be addressing the ugliness in the room when he champions "humans have changed!"

One is a lawyer arguing over a nuanced truth and the other is a paladin demanding people do better.

The average cop is around 104 IQ. You need to be like 30+ points lower before empathy and morality are affected.

So is this a way to take away rights by making it about kids?

I mean what the fuck. We did much less and got punished right? It didn't matter if we were on the property. Schools can hold students accountable for conduct with other students.

The leaded-gas adults of the time had no problem dealing with the emergence of cell phones. It was a distraction. They didn't need lawmakers to call it something specific. My Pokemon cards caused fights and were banned. No lawmakers needed.

The problem is surely with the interaction between parents and schools. Or maybe it's just the old way of thinking. Maybe it's better to have police and courts start taking over discipline in schools.

Flower petal distribution.

Like a voronoi grid with limited colors, each color a state. Every state would have a bit of everything.

Only one of those things was said here on this site, in this thread, by a lemming that we can directly criticize.

Shouldn't the space we occupy and the people we are immediately surrounded with be put above performative anger at external topics?

The politician said terrible things. Posting about it only goes so far.

A lemming said bad things. We can affect that.

When Trump fucks up do you call him a fatty?

When a black judge says women belong in the kitchen do you say "go back to the plantation!"

A woman supports Trump. "Shut up cumdumpster, go make me sandwich if you want to be trad"

That guy brought up something said HERE ON THIS WEBSITE. Someone HERE threw out redneck for living in the sticks. You're fucking dumb if you think people need to write an essay on what they think of a topic before they can point out issues in discourse.

See that? I don't need to prove anything to call you out. I don't need to call out racism to call out dumb posts.

Before you reply, make sure to write an essay about why it's ok to insult unrelated groups of people in order to hurt an individual. At least follow your own weird rules.

The way they talk and run the government is like kids playing with this:

Except the kids have horrific parents and think screaming and throwing pans is how adulting works.

Looks like the flag is trying to walk away.
