  • I'm not saying this to insult or egg people on. I've spent most of my life in Texas and have always heard about how nothing like this could happen in our country/state so on and so forth.

    I just always kinda expected the pot to immediately boil over. Instead, I find myself gaining more and more perspective on my family from the Holocaust.

  • Nah, I get what you're saying, but we're used to engineers and regular workers getting arrested here. We've got one of the most... comprehensive?.. prison systems in the world. It's just so rare to find executives and anyone making over $300k suffer any real consequences.

  • I get what you're saying, but did y'all consider "Nuh-uh, Musk is the smartest internet-boi ever, and these will be AI bullets"?

    If you really think about it, what does Tesla specialize in? Building cars that accidentally crash themselves and otherwise catastrophically fail in absurd ways. Imagine how easily they could crash into things and cause failures if that were their goal!!!

    As a more serious solution, can't we just rub super-cream on loyalists of this administration to give them totally real super powers and then launch them out of cannons to save us from the missiles?

  • You'd think so, and while you're right that the people at the top make way too much money, docking their entire salary at a large district like mine would only be enough to fund maaaaaaaaaaaaybe just under 5% of the schools in our district. And then you'd be left without leadership. If you cut everyone in my pay scale, you'd have enough to fund all the schools and then some, but you wouldn't have teachers, custodians, tech workers, etc.

    But here's something interesting: during the pandemic, since athletics funds were already allocated and athletic events were cancelled, we were allowed to use those funds as we saw fit within the district. Suddenly, we were able to feed every student and staff member for free. Yee haw, welcome to Texan education...

  • because of the fact that Nicusor Dan came out as president

    That's one hell of a transition! Guys, I'm coming out as a hunky billionaire!

    Shit. I guess it only works for people who are sincere about their identity and want others to treat them in the way that feels respectful to them.

    This is definitely still about presidents /s
