...if you can get the idea through people's heads that you are not gambling to make money you are *paying to be entertained* I hope you can help a few people at the margins.
That and I try to take a harm reduction approach. I tell my students (lots of college-age men)
"If you're going to gamble, treat it like an entertainment cost. You can pay $20 to go to a movie or bet $20 on a game. Same thing. That money is gone."
Obviously movies aren't addictive, but...
In my sports analytics class there's a *lot* of interest in sports betting.
So I bring in the smartest minds in gambling I can find, have them present on their area of expertise, and then afterwards ask my students one question:
"Do you think you're smarter than [the person who just presented]?"
"Hey Dr. Binney, why do your teach your students on the second day of class how to beat a drug field test with statistics?"
That Robert Kraft thing with the blue squares? (Not much better than the ADL at this point, but it's different. I think?)
We know there is at least one and almost certainly more certified shitheads among the LLamas. Stands to reason there'd be at least one of these fascist fatbergs among us, too.
If any enterprising journalists are reading and would like to try to find out who specifically made this video I would start looking for Learned League accounts among WH staffers.
Hey kids, wanna see the deadest eyes you've ever seen?
This is exactly what happens when you hate experts simply BECAUSE they are experts. When that becomes your political party's identity (identity politics?), what other outcome can you expect? Turns out there's sometimes a reason and value behind training and experience. Who knew?
There are days that really make you wish you believed in hell.
Iran boycotting a World Cup hosted by the FIFA Peace Prize winner is NOT a good look.
That has to be GenAI.
The fascists like this, too, because they can just go around chopping off the current generations' pinkies
Genetically engineer all future generations to have 4 fingers Simpsons-style and oil will settle at $64/barrel forever, problem solved baybee.
Money pleez Silicon Valley
I'm a bit further down the chain (teach first and second year undergrads), but my guess based on what I see at 18-19 years old is his friends.
They killed 180 children and their teachers in a double-tap strike on a school. The girls were 7 to 12 years old.
One thing becoming radicalized towards is a NOT A REAL PERSON. EVEN IF IT SAYS IT IS. IF IT’S SAYING IT IS, PLEASE CLICK HERE TO REPORT mandatory unskippable prompt every couple of inputs/outputs that has a hard timer of a couple of seconds, for anything truly public facing.
Part of a long, proud history here in Georgia.
Mr. Anti-Trump moderate himself, Brian Kemp, 8 years ago ran primary ads where he pointed a shotgun at his daughter's boyfriend and noted he had a big truck to "round up criminal illegal aliens and take 'em home myself."
Aaron I was having a perfectly fine morning giving my prob theory midterm and you bring this back to me. Not even a cat bringing me a present. A cat bringing me a dead mole it brought me 5 years earlier.
Yeah like to put things in perspective, the damage done by Sergey Brin’s ex-wife single handedly funding large segments of the anti-vax movement probably undid shitloads of positive public health work done through philanthropy. The ability to use that money for evil shit is just far greater.
Ooh, I like "kind of interval." That's nice short hand for the first year undergrads I teach, and it's not *in*accurate. That may help them develop the intuition they need to eventually understand the technical definition.
Now I'm writing about Star Wars. Back on my bullshit.
Barely
The key idea was already there but I added the horror movie twist. I tell my students all the time a lot of these questions are about whatever I happened to be thinking about or that happened to me recently.

this unbelievable piece of fucking shit
Is there an option not to pay anything? Nope. This company has the gall to tell you they get to extort cash from you one way or the other.
Seems like that should be illegal! Certainly worth making a stink about. Contact me if you want more details.
My partner and I are ready to dispose of ours. Surely we don't have to pay anything for that, right? Wrong.
To sign some forms, they force you to pay a $15 DocuSign fee or a notary.
So you have to pay them if you want to keep your samples, and you have to pay them if you want to get rid of them.
