Slippery Jim diGriz ⚖️

Link was the best user anyone followed. It’s not just you. There’s a reason I spend very little time here these days, certainly since Link’s short-lived retirement earlier this year. It’s that the Wild West days are gone and I remember what Arizona was like for about 75 years after they ended there.

Hungry Like The Wolf

Present company excepted to my very few doctor friends.

Doctors are literally the worst.

My grandmother used to say, “It’s just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as a poor man”

and for the first time it has occurred to me to wonder whether my grandmother might not have been a lesbian 🤔

I often am accused of not making my sarcasm explicit. I tried really hard this time.

“People who religiously listen to right wing podcasts make it through basic training challenge”

Breaking news: pentagon allegedly thinks the children of middle and upper middle class white people will now agree to get shot at in a desert somewhere because a podcaster they loved was murdered. Reached for comment, the pentagon through a spokesperson said “nah, it’ll mostly still be the poor.”

He got better.

Thank you for bravely coming out in favor of education, Kathryn, despite the obvious vitriol and insults we have all seen in this thread against learning and knowing things.

And the effect not only on you but on those close to you. If you’re about to willingly become a target of an FBI investigation, try not to be the guy with an undocumented trans roommate.

I was not sniping at your character. You’re going to need thicker skin for at least the next three years.

What you infer is not the same thing as what someone else implies. This is an issue your posts demonstrate repeatedly that you have not yet mastered.

I recommend you find out the “why”. Those are often the things the legal professionals in this thread have been trying to warn people about.

Going to get his parents a signed picture of Captain Stubing for Christmas and give them a wink. I’ll report back.

Yes she was, Kathryn. Don’t make excuses for pre-PhD grandma.

(Also if you get booted from a PhD program for Social Movement Studies for attending a protest, please contact an attorney in your area for advice)

That sounds like it either was in jeopardy or it wasn’t.

I always slather myself in superiority. It’s my anti-aging routine.

I have it on good authority that a family member’s answer to this game was “the first episode of the Love Boat was on TV”

“Well, we paid our taxes. Only one thing we can afford to do for fun this evening”

How do you almost put something in jeopardy?

Wait, their profile says PhD. Are they a PhD candidate?

You’ve held yourself out as a doer. A person of action. A person who helped create action organizations and works with international NGOs who organize and enact major protests. Are you now saying that you’re just a researcher?

Also “I used an alt with very few followers to insult someone with a big account and now he’s being mean” is… a weird argument.

And a free rider who didn’t want to do anything to actually put himself at risk.

Post by lostmissives.bsky.social stating: “Hi, it's me. I'm a social movement studies scholar who has been personally involved with social movement groups including Occupy, Earth First!, and Rising Tide. Please, tell me more about this magical way of building organizations that doesn't require record keeping.”

If this isn’t an argument to your authority on this subject, in addition to your posts about how organizations are created and built (“begins and ends with record keeping”) you may need to consider your communication skills.

Accusing a woman of being angry when she isn’t is a pretty sad tactic, Nas.

Man, I cannot type today. Third attempt: are you calling Kathryn an abuser in this post? And if so, what did she do that is abusive?

You have been touting yourself as an expert in this field. I am confused about what “punching down” means in this context.
