I feel like the parents are getting what they deserve, the kids were obviously in on it, and obviously there are many children with bigger problems, but they were 16 or so when this was happening. How many teenagers are great at taking the moral high-ground over their own parents? Or standing up to their parents about…

Not college but high school and agree about risk assessment capabilities.

Exactly this. I’m at a medium-sized southern public. We set our students up with all sorts of tools for academic success: testing centers, disability centers, counseling centers, periodic check-ins, posted syllabi, office hours, etc etc etc. And then when they begin to fail we intervene.

Yes, it’s easy (and somewhat earned) to point and laugh at the dumb students putting themselves at risk for red cup parties and a social group they have to buy into. But it’s also incredibly disheartening to see university systems admonish a bunch of reckless and horny teenagers for failing to make rational decisions,…

The President downplayed the virus on purpose and has been a volcano of false information since he could breathe.

I work for a certain east coast university that had one of the most high-profile outbreaks following a pretty disastrous (and well-publicized) re-opening. I think here it was the frats that got shut down more quickly than the sororities, but both got hit.

This whole story is one giant eyeroll.

I don’t feel bad for them at all. They knew exactly what their parents were doing to get them into college.

“You said the quiet part loud, fucko, and you did it while being recorded. You’ve done the worst thing you could possibly do; you confirmed what the left says about us is true! Grab your shit and get out of here.”

It’s a stalling tactic.

William Barr has always been trash, but his behavior since becoming AG suggests that he’s being blackmailed, drugged, or has been replaced with an evil(er) robot. Dude has lost the fucking plot.

I know we make a lot of “jokes” about William Barr being his stooge, but this is absolutely nuts.

I loathe showers and registries and gratuitous gift occasions.

I am also on board with ending: wedding showers, baby showers, new dog showers, housewarming where I am expected to bring something other than food or booze, vow renewals...there are probably a few I’m forgetting.  Anything where bunco is likely to be played.  Hard pass.

It was 109 yesterday, and high fire warning signs were posted everywhere. I woke up to smoke and a red sky this morning, angry as fuck over... THEN I saw the report that it was caused by my top peeve, I felt like my skull was going to split open. STOP LIGHTING SHIT ON FIRE TO BROADCAST YOUR FETUS’S GENITAL SHAPES!!

I have never attended and I never will.

My gender reveal was when my OBGYN held up my slimy kid in front of my face, and I said, “Oh hey that’s a penis.”

I just read an article about this. The article said that no charges were being brought against the people who inadvertently started this fire.

Can we end gender reveal parties? Please?
