"even as"? try "BECAUSE"

here's what's gonna happen: all these cases are gonna get delayed so there's no conviction before the election. without a conviction, Trump retains all his support + free publicity from the trials/persecution complex. Trump wins election, has all cases thrown out, tosses all prosecutors & political opponents in gulags, rules with an iron fist for 20+ years.

humanity is doomed.

SPRING IS LITERALLY DEFINED BY RAIN WHAT DO YOU ACTUALLY WANT

I WILL TRADE YOU PLACES. I'll take your salary and your NYC apartment and the snow and the rain and the cold and you can take my poverty wages that Texas entices businesses with and you can enjoy balmy winters and brief February springs and then EIGHT MONTHS of boiling in lukewarm community pools and burning your ass on the car seat and $700 electric bills trying to keep your house from giving you heat stroke. I'm sure you won't question your life choices then.

I'm convinced people like this live in Canada or someplace that gets like 6 weeks of summer that never tops 90 degrees. by March Texas is already getting into pre-summer. we hit 90 in February this year. and climate change is already "hastening spring" to the point winter barely exists. he's gonna start pining for winter real bad when summer lasts 10 months and gets up to 120 in June.

me: please stop recommending hate content to me

wartime is not a good time to hold an election if you're seeking to get rid of a far-right authoritarian. what you need to do is address the rise in support for far-right authoritarianism around the world. people are electing Trumps and Bibis all over the place right now.

so affirmative action is not the reason why Asian and Latin immigrants are doing well, but also Asian and Latin immigrants are doing well so they don't need affirmative action?

right. so we have not yet achieved fairness, so we still need affirmative action. so what the fuck are you arguing about?

the point of affirmative action is not to give recent immigrants an extra leg up. it is to CORRECT COURSE for the descendants of non-white immigrants who did NOT enjoy the upward mobility of their white counterparts, the descendants of Latin, Asian & African immigrants who were Jim Crow'd out of the prosperity that their Italian and Russian contemporaries enjoyed. You can't enslave people for 450 years then go "well these white Russians climbed the ladder w/o affirmative action, you do it too."

2 things: 1) how are we defining "native families" cause I'm guessing it's not "indigenous" and 2) you sit there & tell me after a few generations, immigrant families economically resemble "native" families, that upward mobility is in the toilet, and then that those "native families" descended from Latin or African immigrants don't need affirmative action because RECENT immigrants are doing so well?

keep your kids off social media.

fuck the Jefferson memorial, save the trees instead.

THIS IS BULLSHIT. IT WASN'T A FIGHT, THEY WERE JUMPED. THEIR HEAD WAS SMASHED INTO THE FLOOR UNTIL THEY LOST CONSCIOUSNESS. THE URGENT CARE DOC DIDN'T EVEN CHECK FOR A CONCUSSION. THEY WENT TO SLEEP AND WOKE UP THE NEXT DAY COMPLAINING OF A HEADACHE. THEY HAD ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH A DIFFERENT DOCTOR *THAT SAME DAY.* THEY DID NOT FUCKING DIE BY SUICIDE.
