  • You’ve clearly never been treated to a polygraph by me. It’s a sensual polygraph experience and baby girl, you’ll be telling me everything like the orca I tend to at the San Antonio SeaWorld.

    I got lectured about not using the sarcasm tag the other day. So, /completely serious

  • George Mason has been a right wing school for awhile. They started with economics and found it to be a way to compete with DC schools (that are normal academic institutions) and UVA (one of the best schools in the world) and now it’s just a marketing thing.

    Not saying anyone should shut it down. The quote "science advances one funeral at a time" is not always wrong. But usually, it advances by the hard, seemingly uninteresting work of hundreds of people.

  • Probably but they’ve designated others to do it. Like a trusted organization (Wired or The NY Times) can verify people. Some of the developers seemed hostile.

    But who gives a fuck about a blue check anyway? Even before Elon, it was a gag on Twitter when some fucking moron who interned at Reason or some shit got a big head about it and wrote as a clown to be laughed at. “Some personal news, I’m now the assistant associate dipshit at the newspaper they try to give you for free when you get on the subway.”

  • Yes and their endowment isn’t the same as regular colleges and universities. For one thing, they own lots of Boston properties and priceless paintings that probably aren’t really priced correctly. So, reported value it really an underestimate. But they also have nigh unlimited alumni who donate in the millions because it’s pocket change but they would/could donate a lot more if you pissed them off.

    Trump and Elon Musk are rich to us but Harvard (and Yale and a few others) have alumni who don’t donate “a lot” to the school each year but they have a money cannon ready and can refill the coffers. Stupid mafia tactics aren’t going to work. They will win and you might die.
