Like most things, The Dollop (episode 456) did an episode on Scott Walker that was in charge of making this "deal".

It's about making a white christofascists nation, with Trump in it for the white fascism part (I think his narcissism has him put himself above religion).
Maybe a long shot, but as someone with ADHD and self diagnosed autism, I would encourage you to look into the possibility. I struggled in school all the way through, constantly told "if only you applied yourself", the problem was I was already working harder and didn't realize the system wasn't designed for my brain. Really the world in general isn't designed for anyone neurodivergent, but your life still has value, you just need help figuring out how the whole unexplained thing works.
Yep, AI has been shown to create sources (books/websites/etc.) names out of just pieces of the question asked and do it with the confidence that it's real.
Agreed. So basically they'll push living a lie on those boys, doubling down on the new religious school texts to solidify that guilt.
TIL I learned that Chegg was 1) still around 2) did more than sell college textbooks.
It must be sad to see your company value evaporate at the hands of the equivalent of liar-Russian-roulette, where the AI will return an answer to most anything. And it will return that answer with complete confidence, giving no indication if the result is real or completely fabricated.
Yes, and that's their plan. And remember that health goes beyond vaccines/pandemics, but he will be part of their abortion and contraception bans as well. Couple this with whatever horrible choice Trump picks to dismantle education, and school health programs are going to contain basically just "listen to your husband and/or God (depending on the issue), he knows best" for everything.
The people that felt like they needed to prove a point and put this man back in charge have fucked us for generations.
Here comes? They never stopped! And they worked overtime framing everything Harris needed to be perfect, then cover Trump talking just word salad and writing a positive interpretation of what they thought he meant by it.
And the same asshats that voted for him are going to be paying for these tariffs with higher prices and blame Biden. And the companies are going to make record profits and get more tax breaks and government handouts.
They are changing the name to just "Scouts" to reflect this. And is 100% why these assholes have an issue with them now.
On May 7, 2024, BSA announced that the organization will change its name to Scouting America. While the name change will officially go into effect on February 8, 2025, on its 115th anniversary, all are encouraged to use the name immediately.
Edit a word =(
If there's any hope for the future, the Democratic party needs to evolve.
I would challenge this thought that we need to wait for the DNC to change before we can stand up to fascism. Everyone left of Trump's fascist right GOP is essentially lumped together in the same bucket, and there is only one Dem Presidential nominee to represent that enormous amount of people with vastly different feelings and takes on things.
The ability for everyone in a group that large to feel 100% like they are getting everything they want in a candidate is really really small. The one thing that should be something everyone this side of fascism should be able to agree upon is democracy is something we should be looking to preserve no matter what. And we should look to elect candidates down ballot to help move the needle left (or maintain the "norm" or whatever your jam is) and help drive the change we would like to see long term. Waiting for the DNC to just up and change how you want isn't going to happen without a push from below by the people electing representatives set on making that change.
And seeing a candidate that doesn't 100% represent all your issues, or your one BIG issue, and sitting out the election (with that effect trickling down ballot) or doing a protest vote just hurts everyone. And now it means we are going to be pulled hard to the right and is going to take an enormous amount of work (years) just to get back to where we were, let alone where we want to be.
It seemed that it was a rejection of whatever political group was in power across the globe for the most part this year. This is largely in part because the world as a whole is still healing/recovering from the damage of COVID, and in the US the Dems were left to clean up an economic disaster left by Trump. And we have a large number of people who felt the effects of inflation and for reasons I can't wrap my head around felt the Dems needed to be voted out. Then we had all the people who wanted to teach the Dems a lesson because of Gaza by making sure Trump was elected to help Israel level the area and make sure there was no future for Palestinians (which is another contradiction I can't wrap my head around).
So really I think the Dems could have had a unicorn candidate (Bernie) and they still would have lost this election, because enough people only vote for themselves.
