The article does a good job of giving the reasons for this, but I'll try to explain the justification. Quite simply, kids end up here because of their parents decisions. Since they are here, the decision was made that more harm would be caused (and more money spent) depriving these people an education instead of just letting them be kids.
I'm gonna take this opportunity to plug the nuknives u23. As a lefty, finding a utility blade knife that is lefty friendly is near impossible. This thing fits the bill with flying colors. Bonus: They sell tons of replacement parts, should you damage it. If you have a job that's hard on knives, this is the one for you.
Not only does that not have anything to do with the topic at hand, but I'm also much more worried about the very real hostile take over of a nation than some people's fucking street lights.
Yes. Because when life sucks, you need something to take your mind off of your problems. I agree that we should vote with our wallets, but for the most part, those willing to continue paying far outweigh us waiting to watch it all fall.
Furthermore, that's a vast difference in cost comparisons.
I keep my old phones instead of throwing them away. They become music players in the house/garage. My pixel 7 pro definitely has garbage speakers compared to a pixel 3, or an old Samsung note (can't remember the Gen). It's a stat I didn't even bother looking at, since we seemed to have hammered it out years ago. It's akin to asking if a new car has electric Windows.
As a Satanist, I absolutely think schools should welcome your bountiful deity with open arms, so long as they feel it's important to discuss religion in school. Preferably, we should leave that kind of personal discussion at home. That being said, I think people could really benefit from learning about "The seven I would really rather you didn'ts."
As for the cost, we have no problem throwing money at humiliating and dehumanizing people. It's fucking outrageous. There's plenty of examples where we pay lots more money to hurt people instead of help them.
gestures broadly at everything.
