Something about myself.

That being said, you can turn down the money and put it into a financial aid fund. But it shows you were smart/talented enough to receive the scholarship. Hopefully that's what these kids will do. This isn't a Pell grant or some other strictly need-based scholarship.

I will say, as someone who works in fundraising, you can't get a tax receipt for a business expense as a charitable donation. If you are a bakery and donate cupcakes to an event, we don't log that as a gift in kind. I'm sure it's written off as a business expense or something, but the charity isn't offering any sort of tax incentive to you.

I would not have seen it had it not been reposted. I didn't dv you, but it's just a facet of the site. You can just arrow past.

That there are people who believe that nonsense at all, much less after not receiving a 5k DOGE check and a 2K tariff rebate check, is mind boggling to me. "This time he means it! He's going to change! He said he loves me and won't hit me anymore..."

She got arrested for no legal reason. That false arrest led to the PD being shut down. Not sure what is unclear.

I would proffer that the 65 year old has now seen and lived the consequences of many decisions. There is some truth that with age comes wisdom and saying that there are no older people fighting for the well being of humanity is absurd. There are plenty of people trying to plant a tree that others may sit in its shade. It would be great if we had youthful optimism and elder experience working together and not a gerontocracy, but saying all older people should sit down and shut up is absurd.

Little me would be vastly disappointed, but little me didn't know what she was talking about, thankfully.

Pan's Labyrinth for me. Gorgeous, brutal. Happy-ish ending or just the dying hallucination of a young girl?

Do you think 66 year olds are all wearing diapers and suffering mental decline? Damn, son. Also, there are people wearing diapers 'cuase their body is fucked up, but their mind is just fine. This is some agist, ableist stuff right here. Just give people cognitive tests. Weed out the 50 year old with early onset dementia AND the 89 year old who is starting to lose it.

Just because you can retire at 65 doesn't mean you're not capable of work. My husband will retire at 63 and he's doing just fine.

Because Bernie didn't even get to the Senate until he was 65. Some people are still vigorous and sharp at 85, some people are vegetables at 60. An arbitrary cut off is no good.

I could probably have done most of it. I can still do a tiny part of it, but getting old sucks and it's quite the realization when you go to do something you've done no problem since forever and suddenly it's a problem...

Oh, no. I can be mad at 2 people at once. Kraft is a giant Ahole, Sheeran is a spineless cunt. Cancel. Walk away. We know he doesn't need the fucking money. He wants to it maintain his lavish lifestyle which is clearly more important than genocide, but he doesn't need it. So fuck them both.

So odd that the Ephesian Artemis has so many breasts. I mean, Artemis was supposedly the virgin goddess. Notorious for killing dudes who saw her naked.

Less than a 1/3 agree, just over 1/3 couldn't be arsed as it doesn't affect them directly or they couldn't sully their precious little hands voting for someone who didn't meet their purity test, 1/3 hate him with the fiery passion of a thousand suns.

I takes WAY more than 1 person or you would be that one person. Or I would be that one person. 1 person will just throw their life away so they can no longer resist at all. Organizing is a real problem since electronic spaces are heavily monitored.

We bought a house back in the day when you could do that on an ok but not great salary. It's a lovely 100+ yr old home. Now we make a good living, but everything is SO expensive that we're just as stressed as we were before. Need to paint the house, 12K (all cedar and stucco). Need to replace the gutters, 10K (double gabled roof with a lot of linear feet). Kid's car got stolen, 3k to fix all the shit they did to it. Cat's sick, 2K. There's no relief at the 100K mark anymore.

Can you tell me what great features you're using? I'm really not that old, but on, off, dim. That's pretty much all I want from a light.

I am not sure I should engage since you're already hella pissed off, and I'm not trying to piss you off more, I am just genuinely curious how inconvenient it is to manually turn off and on your lights? I guess I've just never noticed it as an annoyance in my day to day life and I'm trying to envision a daily scenario where it's a hardship. I'm sure there is one, I'm just wondering what it is.

I believe that would be her with the Calydonian (sp?) Boar and the apples that were her downfall. Fucking Aphrodite. Always gotta put her big sexy mitts into things.

Listen to Kathleen Turner a lot. She voice trained to lower her register to get that very vibe.

Mine are good people, willing to fight the fight, but they're tired already. It's so very depressing. I wish I could give them more than momentary respite.

It goes back to his time as a slumlord in NY when he was slammed by the courts for his racist renting policies. And how he took a full page out in the NYT promoting the death penalty for the NY 5 who supposedly had assaulted a white woman in Central Park. News flash, no they didn't. Even after they were exonerated, he just doubled down on it. His racism is truly awful.
