I’ve seen you argue with Starlight and harder heads than Ox. I hardly think that’s a more quality expenditure of your time.

It's kinda like discussing politics with Ox -- I've learned it's just a waste of both of our time.

To many boomers got lazy about fixing these problems.

- To learn the PIN™ range of where you are is. The more mossy has to stretch, the less likely it is that she'll make the effort
- To never question me when I tell you don't question me. Sorta like when I say "duck" it is best to duck immediately if not sooner.
- To never play episodes of the old Hannah Montana TV series around Bill the Cat. It can trigger flashbacks.
- Not all trolls live under bridges.
- Cats roam in herds in certain parts of Alabamastan.
- Bacon is good for me, is good for me.
- Especially crispy like before the war bacon.

Because you and I both know I'm not going to change your mind, and you're not going to change mine, so I have no desire to waste the time of either of us.

Originally posted by Stoic View PostBut just how important is an undergraduate thesis in determining the qualifications of someone with a PhD and a JD, anyway?

Then release it and actually talk to that. Don't bury it.
Of course she has a copy but is, for some inexplicable reason, refusing to turn it over.
And her belonging to a Marxist Facebook group obviously doesn't mean anything. She probably thought it was a Marx brothers fan club.

Originally posted by Sparko View PostI remember when the democrats were more "sneaky" with their plans, and took their time implementing them, a little here, a little there. But with this election, it was all speed ahead from the day Biden took office. First thing, he signed a stack of executive orders countermanding everything Trump accomplished, and it's been like that ever since. As if they know they only have a couple of years to destroy the country and want to shove through every single crazy liberal plan all at once. Green New Deal, Build Back Better, etc.

Originally posted by Gondwanaland View PostThat might be a fair point, if she rejected Marxism later on after leaving said university and being in the US. But she was a member of a Marxist Facebook group at least as recently as 2019, which indicates that her thesis is likely her own belief, not something peer pressured onto her by going to Moscow State University.
