"I" before "E," except after "C," unless sounded like "A" as in "neighbor" and "weigh." Nothing to it. English is easy! (sort of) <3 <3 <3
I've written several times about my school experience in the 1960s. When the school was "de-segregated," they also lowered the grading standards drastically.
95-100 was previously an "A," below 70 was an "F." No retro-active apology was offered to kids who "failed" to pass to the grade ahead the previous year due to "Fs" that were considered "Cs and Ds" three months later. I also was offered no apology for the scolding over the "failure" to make All-A Honor Roll on occasion with grades that were now suddenly considered solid As.
What is not surprising: illiteracy got worse. The kids who weren't trying really weren't trying now, not if "passing" was just a little over 50/50 on multiple-choice tests (that a teacher would read aloud, and write down the response for those kids who either couldn't read, or just refused to take the tests.) I started seeing kids 3-4 years older than me in my elementary/Jr-High classes for the first time. In Jr. High there were several kids 16+ driving themselves to school, I had never seen that before. (At the time, I didn't know some of those cars were gifts from Alumni Association folks hoping to lure future sportsball players.)
tl;dr Lowering the grading and behavior standards for schools will give the results one would expect: less-intelligent poorly-behaved "graduates." At one time schools tried to remedy the plight of children who arrive unwilling to learn and ready to fight, that day is now past.
I saw something on InfoWars with Jerome Corsi claiming there was some sort of invisible "watermark" on ballots similar to the UV strips/watermarks in our currency that would allow investigators to verify various info (are the ballots counterfeit reprints, are they in the region/location they are supposed to be in, sort of a serial number/batch ID marking.)
Apart from repeating that claim in a few subsequent interviews, that is the only time I've heard of it so I've been curious if he was on the level or not.
I would have appreciated clarification that his objective was exposing/"draining" The Swamp, as opposed to making progress toward cleaning it up. I already knew who The Swamp was (and already didn't trust RINOs) so I was more hoping for... I donno, less major cities on fire and a general crackdown on violent/illegal/disruptive behavior.
But hey, we have teenage girls flipping the vehicles they carjack right in front of National Guard troops in downtown DC so that's "progress," I guess. And in keeping with the previous bit... that is a ringing endorsement against the "DC statehood" push, we do not need yet another lawless hell-hole being awarded 2 Senate votes.
WEW LAD !!! He didn't say that recently, I hope?
LOL! "IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUESTED! ANSWER, PEASANT!"
I wonder if they expected all the letters coming back with a savage wave of "Screw you, buddy! Fund your own election fraud!"
LOL
It's the nose, it sort of atrophied during his coke-habit years. He lucked out though, at least it turned into an abnormally-thin sort of flattened side-to-side thing (imagine all these "glamour shots" if he had Artie Lange's nose.)
It's a weird kind of sad, I can't stop laughing at it. But it is tragic.
When I was a child in the 1960s/70s, people didn't even talk about sex/degeneracy in public (not around women and children anyway, and "bad language" was rare even on TV/in movies.) I saw people scolded many times for "bad language" where today... we have people not only screeching obscenities at their own city mayor through a bullhorn, but encouraging arson, knife attacks, and shooting guns in public as completely "normal" behavior, depending on the race and location of the perps in question.
Moar interesting historical perspective, per the Lenny Bruce article at Wikipedia:
Bruce was arrested again in 1961, in Philadelphia, for drug possession and again in Los Angeles, two years later. The Los Angeles arrest took place in then-unincorporated West Hollywood, and the arresting officer was a young deputy named Sherman Block, who later became County Sheriff. The specification this time was that the comedian had used the word schmuck, an insulting Yiddish term that is an obscene term for penis. The Hollywood charges were later dismissed.
... in April the next year (1963) he was barred from entering the United Kingdom by the Home Office as an "undesirable alien".
In the early 1960s Lenny Bruce was arrested several times for using "bad language" in comedy-clubs (and barred from the UK, be this for his "naughty words" or his drug busts for heroin.) 10 years before in the UK, Alan Turing the computer-scientist was sentenced to "chemical castration" because it was illegal to be gay in England at the time. Also, in 1961 West Hollywood police arrested Lenny Bruce for using the word "schmuck" at a time when MSM/Hollywood were preparing the Big Bish down the Slippery Slope of trampled decency standards: contrast that with recent years, with West Hollywood police allowing DNC Megadonor Ed Buck to run a dope-house for over two years, with over a dozen OD victims and 2 known fatalities.
Oh right, Bruce Gender. So when I was a kid, I remember seeing Bruce Gender on the Wheaties boxes in the store (I have never eaten a Wheatie. My parents said they were unaffordable, so that must be some really good cereal. It's on my bucket list!) There was a huge media blitz when he won the decathlon, they were hoping to try a Joe Namath move and get him into movies/make a celebrity out of him.
But had he showed up at the Wheaties box photo-session in a low-cut dress and fake bewbs, with Raquel Welch's borrowed makeup artist in tow, saying "I choose to live my life as a strong vibrant wymyn now, put THAT on your cereal box!" we would have been talking about the "cereal box that never happened," rather than the rapt anticipation of Bruce Gender's "triumphant return" to the Wheaties box for the 2026 "Decathlon Anniversary Edition" (with 3-D lenticular-motion print of Mr. Gender twerking on a group of naked Chippendale guys.)
That's the more important thing to be aware of. An anchor-baby of migrant parents can not be expected to understand nor promote the culture and best interest of Traditional Americans. New RINOs are Worst RINOs.
This! The transvestite "health secretary" also had a wife and kids, but his self-obsession also led him to abandon his own identity and turn himself into a bizarre art project. I have seen this insanity both at close-range and at a distance: a previously normal-seeming guy finally snaps after seeing domineering females getting so many of life's advantages (and the mental trauma that results from attempting a relationship/marriage with one of them.)
They decide "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" and leap full-force onto the Trans Fad bandwagon, demanding to receive the pandering and coddling they have seen females granted- having extended so much of this themselves in the quest to appease their whims. The result is laughable of course, a preposterous never-passable drag-queen yelling "IT'S MAAM!!! reee"* and demanding all the conventional courtesies like opening doors for them etc (in an age where we are ordered not to perform such displays of chivalry for biological women, at the risk of unreasonable triggered freakout.)
It's super-power weapons-grade laughable when someone I've known for many years suddenly "re-invents" themself as a "stunning brave diversity wymyn" and expects to be treated as if they have always been an attractive desirable female. No. I do not humor the delusions of the mentally-ill. (Another upside to being a self-imposed "social outcast.") After a lifetime of being ordered to conform to one or anothers' demands of how to dress and behave in public (and enduring harsh criticism of my creative efforts from Leftists who prefer political subversion to talent) I will not pander to crackpots who can't decide what "gendyr" they are today.
That's how those guys roll, as with any populace with an intense school/state-or--team rivalry. That sort of sports fan roasts the other team/their fans/parents with all manner of insults and stereotype-based jokes, I've heard this all my life in many areas of the country.
Maybe the SJWs don't know this because they only recently became aware of sports via the kneelers and the relatively-recent "woke" Leftist Agenda takeover? Obviously they know there is such a thing as sportsball, but they never seemed to have any interest in sports nor any familiarity with its inner-workings until the Age Of Kneelers.
LOL !!!! hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
> edit: The old clip of Charles Barkley on SNL playing basketball one-on-one with Barney the dinosaur is must-see TV! WEW LAD
Is that the magazine with the ridiculous transvestite "fashion" editor? (That guy may be from "Vogue," I forget.) It's a cross-dressing guy in clown makeup, he looks like Lindsey Graham's dad in drag. He was very anti-Trump with nothing good to say about Melania, which is to be expected from a Drag Queen Story Hour reject.
The "art" is so bad (they would say "minimalist," they are wrong: it's lazy and poorly done) that it's hard to tell what's going on there besides "Interracial Lesbianism! All the cool kids are doing it! New And Improved with Covid Chic!" but... they may be trying to portray two people meeting in an airport. Maybe. That may be a cart of luggage to the left, and that shape to the right sort of looks like the tail of a large airplane outside a window.
So I guess they are saying it's A-OK to make out in an airport with an African migrant or a long-distance Tinder date flying in from a CDC-controlled big-city hot-spot for WuFlu and STDs - if if if if if if the kiss-ee is same-sex/different race, and both are wearing the Magic Masks.
I do have to applaud the one thing that does seem to be accurate, both of their Wu-Flu injection sites appear to be red and swollen (especially the one on the left, that looks like a really nasty allergic reaction! That looks like a Brown Recluse spider-bite, not the usual current-day Hippocratic Oath abuse.)
"Post-Modernism"/Modern "Art" is generally garbage deliberately done badly, to give virtue-signaling Leftists/SJWs something to boast about. The point is not the "quality" of the "art," it's the political/propaganda content. (And, promoting the mantras of "Good Is Bad, Bad Is Good" "Archaic traditional standards of beauty and quality are oppressive wipipo constructs" etc etc etc.)

I've been with the same girl for over 30 years and even back then, "wymymn" on average were already so narcissistic and SJW-ish I had already sworn them off.
There is no potential "dating pool" for me in the "CURRENT YEAR!!! reeee." I have no interest in women of any age who are pre-programmed with feminist/Communist propaganda and MSM/Hollywood's promotion of misandry. Nope nope nope nope nope, Do Not Want. Life is difficult enough without having to tolerate some vapid narcissist barking orders. (And after I endure the next 8+ years of pez-ident Kumala, I will have an even lower tolerance for that stuff.)
Most of my neighbors have a field of cows. Are the feds going to step in and tell them they can/can't do with them (or tell them it's "illegal" to barter in black (angus) market beef cuts?
Seriously, how does the DNC intend to police our eating habits? (OK, they could go to Facebook and bust all the people posting pictures of their food.) But are they planning to do "beef rationing certificates" like they did with gas rationing in WW2? I'm very curious how they intend to deploy their "Beef Police."
> ooo ooo I got it, we round up the vegans and take their BDRCCs (Beef Demand Reduction Compliance Certificates!) They aren't going to use them, not in public anyway.
If God didn't want us to eat cows, why are they made of beef?
> Checkmate, vegans <3 <3 <3
This. I realize that low birth rates among white people are a large factor in the downfall of our society but: there is no benefit to getting involved with "modern wymyn" unless you are a masochist or maybe you just hate money and thrive on stress.
Sure, get married if you feel lucky but: pre-nuptial agreements are your friend.

This.
Don't forget Big Brain "Solutions" like the "Promise Program" and "defund/abolish the police."
Their grand plan to combat the rising crime rate is to overlook/not report felonies committed in school by POCs, and do away with police completely (or at the very least, be granted immunity from interference/arrest selectively on the basis of their race when they do commit crime.)
> tl;dr We are not dealing with rocket scientists here.
