Counterpoint, if this dude can't complete a bachelor's yet he thinks he has "multiple Masters theses" he could complete "if only the system would let him", he is definitely unfit to be any type of manager at this stage.

I have similar focus issues and it sucks, but literally everyone in their early twenties feels this way at some point. I would agree with getting a job, or just focusing to complete any BA, having to compare one's skill set in a specific consistent thing against other people is important for a reality check

Counterpoint: If my existence as a marginalized individual has already been politicized by conservatives, then I lack the privileged position to simply "Make the point and shut up", which is what you are effectively suggesting. When my identity as a human being (by blood, not beliefs) has been made a political argument, then no I'm sorry, my identity is also political... and that has been forced on me. Nothing about that invalidates the points I have to make to argue for my continued existence.

All I'm saying is, you act like identity is an abstract thing from politics, but for some people it can never be. Just being quiet means they are still people arguing for your death.

It's a cat so my guess is they really like to swat at anything in their owners hand

You're allowed to be an authoritarian, just keep your boot licking to yourself, children shouldn't be victimized for your ideological beliefs

Hunby looks like a good student. Hogby is the kid your parents don't want you hanging out with, because he always smells like weed (since like grade 4)

Nothing wrong with that, look up "coffee sock". It's used exactly as you describe, except they put this filter down first, then lift it out with the grounds after it's done brewing. All the other methods mentioned here are valid too, coffee is coffee!

So we agree that copy pasting team culture, rather than giving the actual humans agency over the way that they organize themselves, is bad? Scrum is the name of a meeting, not one specific thing, it was just an example

Assuming you have a modern digital camera, check if it has a Bluetooth phone app that lets you download images to local memory. I was able to zoom in and verify focus after my first shots, this was a major help when I tried stars.

BTW, no joke this is a book by Daniel Quinn called 'Ishmael'. Highly recommend

Can you define socially conservative? In my experience, that includes people who believe "races" should be segregated

"Litters of children" like animals amirite? Rational people don't need to dehumanize to make an argument. Dropped your dog whistle, bud.

Also, how do immigrants collect welfare without social security numbers? Is your premise that 100% are frauders?
