Richard Levine and Sam Brinton are begging to disagree with the professionalism part.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett and too many Democrat politicians, officials, and staffers for me to list here beg to disagree on the DEI for racist posting part.
This is as unacceptable and dangerous as if the teacher performed root canals on these kids during recess. She absolutely should be fired and never work in education again.
At my university we are routinely pushed to act as homegrown psychotherapists to students, and nobody except for me seems to understand that it’s not OK. We are told that it’s a sign of empathy to want to help people in psychological distress. As Byung-Chul Han says, appeals to empathy are used to exploit us and wring out of additional work beyond our contractual obligations.
I’m starting to get really fed up with this dude:
This feeds directly into the pernicious “everybody is an immigrant” narrative, and why do we need this on our side when there’s enough of it on the other?
Also, what do we do with those who don’t pass? Strip away their citizenship and bring over better quality people? I fail to see the difference and the attitude of every open border fanatic out there.
I expressed an opinion on social media that Governor Pritzker is not a good governor, and immediately an overheated Democrat showed up to tell me that I shouldn’t have opinions since I wasn’t born here. It’s hilarious that the only time I hear that I should shut up because I’m an immigrant is when I talk to Democrats. The only immigrants they like keep silent while cleaning the toilet and mowing the lawn. Mouthy, opinionated immigrants offend their sensibilities because we don’t need to be rescued and patronized.
In any case, here is my springtime decor which is consoling me for the silliness of engaging with fanatical Pritzker supporters.
I don’t understand what people mean by “see.” When I close my eyes, I obviously don’t see anything. Because my eyes are closed. The only thing to see with my eyes closed is to fall asleep and have dreams.
Do they mean they can conjure a visual with their imagination? I can, kind of, but it’s not going to be isolated objects and I definitely need my eyes to be open.
I had a very busy day, plus I had to take my car to the mechanic.
Finally, at 8:30 pm I go on social media to see what is happening in the world and discover that America is in the midst of yet another scandal about “racist comments.”
Did anything else of note happen because I can’t plow my way through the waves of all this outrage?
“Please give me the names of leading Hispanic thinkers who are currently living,” I asked the AI. It gave me a list where half of the people are dead, half are not remotely Hispanic, and 100% are mega woke.
“Please give me the names of leading Hispanic thinkers who are currently living, actually Hispanic and not left-wing,” I insisted.
The AI gave me a different list, consisting of one transhumanist, two Communist Jews in the US, one African (not Afro-Hispanic but an actual African), and two non-binary activists.
Does anybody have suggestions about some names of the most important Hispanic thinkers of our times? I need people who are alive, not past thinkers. Spain and Latin America included.
I have two videos for you today. The first has me in a very pretty necklace which is typically Galician. It’s made out of iron but it looks and feels cloudy and light. The video also has a funny story about sexy Legos that oppress non-binary people in London and my discussion of Trump’s statements about Gaza:
The second video has me in the same necklace talking about the corruption scandal in the US. Why both channels use goofy photos of Trump is a mystery.
I did tame what people on a recent show referred to as my “Yeti hair”. I actually loved my Yeti hair but apparently it distracted from the message.
