Too late, she saw distro on your collar.
You are a real asshole if you think anyone deserves to have their children drown to death.
Center left? Center left??? How about full blown leftist socialist, because nothing less will do.
We are exceptionally good at performative bullshit that accomplishes nothing.
I don’t really see why any of the people in power would care if this person had starved themselves to death. I don’t understand what the perceived leverage was here.
That last line is why I hang out with hookers.
Maybe I’m weird, but I don’t avoid any of them, I just take them for what they are, and some are total shit. That said, sometimes you’re looking for shit, so it makes sense to go to the shit farm.
You know what, scratch that, I avoid whitehouse.gov and foxnews.com.
That is going to be outside the scope of normal clown schooling. You may want to get an act together and approach an alternative freak show—I feel like that might fit well. Otherwise, it sounds like you’d probably be going the self employed route.
Independent study is the cornerstone of any good education.
Clown colleges. Some of the ones in France are downright prestigious.
It kind of depends on what kind of clown you want to be.
There are clown colleges that you can go to which will help you make connections that can lead to circus jobs. They also teach you about the different types of classic clown tropes, and will help you narrow down to the specific skill set that works for you. Here is a website that will help you find clown colleges:

Rodeo clowns are a different breed altogether. To become a rodeo clown, you need to be somewhat insane, have no fear of death by trampling, and then you need to hang out at rodeos to make the right connections. Finding some basic job at a rodeo would be a good start, and then you can work your way into the clown role once they recognize that you are completely bonkers and willing to stand in front of a charging bull.
Party clowns are essentially entrepreneurs. You need to develop the skills on your own, and then find someone to give you a shot at their kids birthday party. Relationships are essential—don’t be afraid to ask your clients for referrals, and make sure you are professional, personable, and entertaining at all times around them. It is a hard road, but like any freelance business, once you get the ball rolling in your area, you have the potential to carve out a decent career. It is especially important that you use your connections for a broader reputation among schools and churches because eventually the first wave of kids will grow up, and you will need to transition into the next generation.

Sophie Sperlich was a well-known artist in Munich, her home town. Although not much information is available about her, she was a popular artist painting both dogs and cats. Her paintings are in the same style as those of Julius Adam and Henriette Ronner-Knip. Many of her works were used as postcard illustrations.

Saying “long voting history of the state” is a gross misunderstanding of Texas. Every major city here votes blue. We are so heavily gerrymandered that we get screwed every election. Texas is a sleeper swing state. I know because I live here.
