When you call the cops, they have to follow the minimum protocol. The cops did not follow this girl around or randomly pull her aside for her ID. They were CALLED to the scene.

You don’t have a lot of stars because people think you’re serious, hermana. People think you’re serious because that’s how they actually talk.

If we allow black women to sleep, then we allow black women to dream. Can’t have that.

To be fair, Yale university police did follow protocol and checked ID. Given our current environment with shootings, that is justified.

And yet Becky McWhitetears will face no consequences from the university or police.

Dang, I came here to say just this but I was too late.

In South Florida, it’s not rude to ask if the event start time is in Hispanic time or White time as there is about a 2-3 hour difference between the two.

You have to be a very large family farm to be worth $11,000,000. Unless of course you have a LOT of brand new/newer equipment. If that’s the case you should be turning the farm into a LLC or something similar and dividing it into portions so the total ownership is distributed slowly over time. In theory you could gift…

Cis men and cis women are examples of men and women. You’ll notice I was careful about my phrasing throughout that paragraph because:

Time to get a new CPA.

And here we have a person who refuses to believe that poverty and low-income employment are real things.

“Poor people are exactly the people who need money”.

Yes, audiobooks FTW! My commute went from 8 minutes to 45 minutes when I took my new job. Started listening to audiobooks and now I look forward to my commute to and from work each day. I truly enjoy the time spent in the car

Yeah, I actually really like getting stopped to chat with prospective students and parents on campus. Some times I can answer their questions, others not. But it gives me a chance 1. to show them that people on campus are approachable and 2. to engage them in conversation where I might be able to recommend other…

Also you may have accidentally stopped a grad student and grad students only know where their lab is, the nearest purveyor of caffeine to their lab is and the grad student bar is.

Awesome opinion, bro.

You can build on the power of labels for this. We have Google Apps at work where we are expected to manage email correspondence including deleting non-permanent. I handle this by labeling before sending new messages or replies and anything that leaves the inbox. At regular intervals or as I choose I can do a search…

Totally! “Will this be fun to show my visitors” is a great rubric for whether to keep a book, whatever “fun” translates to for you.

I’m the same way. I’ll get rid of it, only when I dont think it’ll ever come up in conversation. If I could see myself every saying “I read a book on that one time, here give it a try” then I keep it. Random Sci-Fi, super dull non-fiction, or really obscure stuff gets passed on as soon as i’m done with it, or decide…

I totally get the pretension part. Our living room bookshelf has two parts: The open upper half, and the lower half that has doors that cover it. All of my ‘interesting’ books go on the top half, while the bottom half is littered with my kids’ books and mass markets.
