Well then is it better to say that we should redefine what happiness means? Or is it that happiness means something different to each individual? Sometimes I feel like what I define as happy is really just being content to someone else. This is more of a philosophical question, or maybe more specifically a metaphysical question. What is happiness?

But then they’ll say “well legancy admissions and the money that brings allows the institution to admit those of lesser means”. However you dice it, what matters the most is that they now have more reason to discriminate. They always did but the way I see it the schools that are impacted most by affirmative action seem to be the ones that have had these legacy admissions. Always been Pay To Play, and now there’s no reason to even try to allow even a minimal amount of outsiders into their exclusive club. All these kids and families that jumped onto Blum’s ship for the lawsuit have been played and don’t even know it.

Thank you! That’s helpful.

Can anyone explain exactly what this means in terms of how the schools are run?

To me it sounded more like “bro you’re alone and no one is going to have your back on this. Your best best at surviving this coup attempt is to join me in exile in Belarus while we wait for someone stronger to become our daddy.”

They probably have to pay someone full time to monitor anything he does or says on social media to keep up with the mixed confessions with lies he spews. As dumb as we all like to think he is, I really believe what he’s doing is just trying to flood the news cycle hoping that whatever jurors end up serving are so turned around on what’s true and what isn’t. He’s hoping whatever diarrhea his lawyers will drum up as an excuse will leave enough doubt in the minds of the jurors that they’ll vote to acquit. I think we all believe this is a slam dunk case but let’s be real, ol’ Cheeto Benito has made conning his career and he will continue until he’s behind bars or dead.

What doesn’t surprise me is that wealthy adventure enthusiast billionaire would think it’s okay to cheap out on something supposed to sustain his life underwater. $30 game controller? Plumbing pipe for ballast? Off the shelf monitors? Is that picture showing they done even have any seats or way to strap in safely? Bolted in from the outside without a safety escape built in? I feel they would have been better off trying to go at it with an old timey diving bell attached to the surface with an air hose. That would have been even cheaper than this underwater coffin they built. At least then they would have been tethered and retrievable.

I’ve seen some op eds calling for a pardon for trump a la Nixon with then President Ford. I can see why they think it’s a good idea but at some point you have to pay for your misdeeds. If trump is ever actually found guilty and sentenced to jail I think it’s very necessary to set a standard and actually make him follow through on being punished. I feel like a pardon would show his supporters that whatever he did wasn’t too bad if he got pardoned. They’ll call it a witch hunt no matter the result, might as well make it so that there is some justice actually seen at the end of it all.

Can’t have pesky humans and their need for water get in the way of progress. If they can’t handle the heat just replace that one with another more hungry than the previous. /s

Can’t wait to see him respond to it. Maybe he will post a couple of saucy pics on the subreddit himself to contribute?

Sounds good on the face of it but really doesn’t address the mountain of debt most people are in currently. Agreed that schools and deceptive lending practices need to be reigned in, but let’s be real here, this doesn’t really address the root cause of the problem which is runaway costs. As long as people are willing to take the loans out the schools will continue to charge what they want. From what I read it’s just kicking the can down the road and putting the onus on a young student coming out of high school to make the right decision.
