Learning to live with it means regular vaccination boosters, permanent masking up, reduced capacities in indoor spaces, remote working, and social distancing. Those are the things we need to learn to live with for COVID, learning to live with it doesn’t mean saying fuck it and surrendering to the virus’s effects of…

For the record it took Tony Dungy FIVE hiring cycles to finally be offered a job. You would think that white owners would look at the job he did in turning around the sorry ass Tampa Bay Buccaneers and think “Hey maybe these guys aren’’t so bad.” Do people forget how bad and wretched that franchise was back in 1996?…

The hard right are literal fascists now, after toad-shroom-dicked Donnie. Of course they want to curbstomp gays, and jews and whatever else, that’s how fascism works. Why don’t people get this? Half of our political spectrum wants to go back to lynching minorities in the street. Those that vote in concert with them…

What are my biggest grievances? Plural?

I’m a professor and I cannot for the life of me remember my students’ names. Even in the smaller classes. Sorry. I have taught hundreds of classes and thousands of students and I’m exhausted (and underpaid). I work my butt off to try to make my lectures clear and informative and get the material across to the class. I…

Interesting this ONE public defender sees redeemable, educable qualities in these insurrectionists. She’s advocating they read and learn about the racist foundations of this country so that she can zealously present them as redeemable to the court and not the continued seditious threats they absolutely are. But I…

americans are emotionally and psychologically fucked up and have no value for human life.

Not to mention the judge throwing the trail as well.

Just another day in America

Prince also said ‘Let’s look for the purple banana till they put us in the truck’

Unfortunately, looks still play a big part in all sports. I’m a pretty big sports data/economics nerd, and there was a study a while back that if a European soccer player looked a certain way (good build, blonde hair, etc.) he would command a higher transfer fee and salary than similar players, even if the other…

I had zero understanding why negroes bother watching this shit before this egregiousness and now I’m just like oh ok. Must be the masochism.

Maybe we can all just grow up and not start screaming at people for minor inconveniences?

Anyone watching American news from November 2020 to January 2021-onward knows this. And we know those exact people named we in on it. And we know that Roger Stone had a hotel war room set up to manage the coup and we know that some military and police (did!) and were ready to do their part. Y’allQuaida just didn’t…

Who’da thunkit?

That’s not just true of highly automated systems, it’s true of everything. When I was in medical school, one of my mentors told me “it’s very easy to be a good doctor when nothing goes wrong.”

Every time I see Candace Owens I think of this quote from Quint in Jaws.

Off topic, Kinja is killing this and other sites for me. I would come to the Root regularly but it isn’t as fun anymore.

IDK if justice will ever truly be delivered, not for all the victims.
