Aneristic Illusions / Re: UNLIMITED Trump thread, 20...
Last post by MMIX - February 05, 2025, 12:25:11 PMJebus christ almighty! Talk about Kakistocracy! That tangerine tosspot has only gone and said he's going to nick Gaza 'cos its prime seafront property. LOL. If I was Greenland I would be shopping around for a nuclear deterrent, and Oh Canada, are you in the firing line now
Yes I do realise that he has been saying this all along but apparently nobody believed him - well not enough, anyhoo. Hope those fence sitters in Dearborn are enjoying the show . . .

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Republicult™ On Parade
Last post by Abbot Mythos - February 05, 2025, 02:18:29 AMMy first thought was to post this on the "No, It's Not an Article On "The Onion."" thread. But, this article is not in the least bit funny:
Stop attending panels meant to improve air travel, FAA tells employees
As per this article:
"The Federal Aviation Administration has barred its employees from participating in a host of advisory committees intended to help come up with solutions to issues facing the aviation industry, including those related to safety and air traffic control.
A directive to employees, obtained by POLITICO, states that employees appointed to these committees "should not attend (in-person or virtually) ... until further notice." The directive comes as the agency and the airline industry are reeling from last week's collision between an American Airlines jet and an Army helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, the first fatal crash of a U.S. airline in nearly two decades."
So, if you have the misfortune of living in 'Merica in these dark times, you may want to consider contacting your U.S. representative and your two (2) U.S. senators in congress about this nonsense. Such actions won't take much more time than your normal social media activity, it might actually help rectify the current situation, and it just might make you feel a little better about yourself for having made the positive effort.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Resistance 2.0!
Last post by Abbot Mythos - February 04, 2025, 08:01:58 PMI'm seeing this quotation from U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) popping up on the internet today:
"Elon Musk you know, you can take the boy out of apartheid but you can't take apartheid out of the boy. He's out here doing Nazi salutes. Whatever."
This lady is an admirable, inspirational leader of the Resistance 2.0. We need many more like her.

Or Kill Me / Re: A warning.
Last post by altered - February 04, 2025, 09:20:21 AMIf you are an American on this forum and think you might get out okay, that the above doesn't apply to you, this almost year old piece, I regret to inform you you are wrong. I am homeless, my body is shutting down, and there is a genocide machine aimed at my head. Musk has his child soldiers in control of the treasury, literally kids fresh out of high school, his personal workers, in charge of US Treasury computers. The controlled opposition is no longer even opposing, every single congressthing is voting for the worst people you know, unanimously. Yes, your favorites too. A prison in El Salvador exists that they said out loud will house American criminals, they will deport US citizens. Covid is still here, and other diseases are crawling out of the slime
You are all going to die too, under boots or in camps or to illness or to exhaustion, you are all going to die and your loved ones will die too. You will not be saved, no one is coming to the rescue. If you escape you will have the guilt, knowing how many people you know didn't
I'm definitely not escaping, my life has all but already ended. Everyone has given up on me, there is no future, no one cares. I will never complete a fucking thing before I die. No one cares about that either. It's technically not too late, but no one will do what I need: housing and being kept alive while I apply for a deadname passport, funding my exit. It's not happening, and I'm in decline so everyone who could or would will reason someone else deserves it more, someone who can live a healthy life instead of declining broken health and trauma from years and years of pain. Someone who has a chance to be normal and okay, maybe once was normal and okay
No one is going to be okay. Okay is lost. We will all die or be broken, no human body on this land is going to make it out alright

Last post by Abbot Mythos - February 04, 2025, 02:04:38 AMI found this on a UK news website:
Pennsylvania flood museum temporarily closed due to flooding
Well ... Johnstown, Pennsylvania is famous for its deadly flood of 1889. Or, at least it's famous for that particular flood in my state. And, the town has been hit with other notable floods since the 19th century. But still, when is enough, enough?

Last post by Nephew Twiddleton - February 03, 2025, 07:21:19 PMConversely, teaching microbiology labs has hands down been the only job that I've actually enjoyed and took pride in. Grading sucks and is the most tedious and boring part of the job, but that's really my only complaint about it, other than the pay. My wife makes more than me, which isn't a problem in principle, but an extra 20k a year would help a lot. I was applying for jobs with salaries from 70-90k, and is a reasonable expectation for my degree in Boston/Cambridge
