It’s wild that you can just openly bribe the President of the United States with chunks of gold to get
whatever you want, it’s fine, you don’t have to hide it, just say “I am bribing the President with gold,” zero consequences.
Happy Halloween. 👻

Jesus: Okay, no more forgiveness, Father, they know what they are doing and they are still doing it!
Noah: Yeah, man, I told you they always miss the boat.

DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

The birds in Switzerland sing even when it’s raining.
this is the only post i’ve seen with any data about it: make.wordpress.org/project/2024...
unless the person who filed the report says something about it, no. there was a statistics post filed at least one year that reported some data, but i don’t know if that was a regular report (and there is no way to confirm the data anyway.)
The Trump administration is engaging on an all-out assault on the institutions, workers and standards that make learning and knowledge production possible, in the hopes of securing political dominance forever. (Gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
