hartzell and eltife both need to go.
fuck them both.
i was on campus when jesse jackson came to town after hopwood blew up everything and lino graglia went rogue.
that was an old school civil rights protest and i don't even remember the cops that day.
because he's pro fascist. seriously, what fucking UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT calls in the fucking state trooper anti riot police to smash up a peaceful protest with tried and true kesselschlacht warfare tactics?
also, incredulity got it for a couple of days. more incoming and or I'm just going to move obvious political thread to political forum.
yall decide jesus christ you bunch of children
lol at lights being timed at all for efficiency. there are so many shit examples but loyola in general has lights that blow. my personal favorite for time immemorial is the seeming inability for the city to time lights on a schedule. ain't no college kids crossing dean keaton at 8 am on a sunday but that doesn't stop all those lights from going red so ghosts can cross on non school days.
also you know what happens when your kid is in serious crisis and you make them endure it anyways and go to school and suck it up?
i remember when that happened when i was a kid and I'm probably still suffering somehow from that experience. also i learned nothing in school those days because fuck you i dont want to be here or need to be here. i guess my dad would have called that building character but it was pretty much bullshit
i did learn how to be bitter and anxious and have a lot of resentment towards my parents though so i got that out of it. Sorry if i don't want to be the biggest asshole in my kids' teen lives. doesn't mean I'm their best friend either.
yeah. thats called depression and it can be hard as hell to try and face it head on and honestly. and emasculating. and a whole host of other unhelpful things.
i was fired last year for being sad and anxious. employers will put all kinds of mental health wellness bullshit in their messaging but god help you if you fucking admit it. they will take a look of your state of employment, pip you and fire you. thanks texas.
i think covid showed us how bullshit our social structure really is
my kids are absent all the time. monday they didn't feel like going for different reasons but basically they were tired from helping try to entertain cousins at easter.
why do i give a fuck? unexcused absences mean fuckall any longer.
it's sometimes better for them to just have a day than have the fight.
i am sure this will be a super popular opinion around here and before you jump on me , know my wife is in public education and I'm a huge supporter of properly executed public schooling.
well there's your cowboy churches, your suburban megachurches, probably an electric guitar or some local celebrity musician, and a coffee shop at church.
basically any non catholic white christians in america. sorry american protestants this is all your fault.
