Trump is a brilliant man and was an excellent college student.

"I went to an Ivy League school. Im very highly educated. I know words, I have the best words" - Donald Trump

"When I say con man, Im talking about a man who declares himself brilliant but directed me to threaten his high school, his colleges, and the College Board to never release his grades or SAT scores. The irony wasnt lost on me at the time that Mr. Trump in 2011 had strongly criticized President Obama for not releasing his grades." - Michael Cohen, Donald Trump's personal attorney

"Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had." - Dr. William Kelley, Donald Trump's professor at Wharton School of Business and Finance

See? "Very highly educated." A "stable genius."
Yeah that is incredibly hypocritical when he said Obama got bad grades etc...when his might have been actually worse. Why do people care though about grades they got over 30 yrs ago?

If its legal? As many that want to come here. We could even have designated immigrant zones with homes, utilities and jobs built by and filled by those immigrants. We have a fuckload of unused land for it. They all do a job in their homeland, they can do that job here for their own city. And eventually once they get their green card they are free to apply for jobs and get homes elsewhere if they want.
Don't few people want to live in wyoming and stuff? Most would probably move to already populated areas. Wouldn't the population of the u.s. be over a billion if everyone who wanted to legally immigrate to the u.s. , could? Maybe not a billion but many many millions.

Like most shit, the light bulb cant be credited to one dude. It was a series of small improvements on the ideas of previous inventors that led to it.
This might be true. That for especially the most complex inventions that a very high percentage of them were not invented by one person.

I dont think even those people youre talking about would advocate for prison sentences for people who did get those abortions. If theres room to move, things move. Just something Ive noticed a lot lately.

Theres an old saying, scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds. I dont think thats necessarily always true, but sometimes I do wonder.
Do you think this woman would have also got a 2 yr sentence if Roe had never been overturned? There were already some anti abortion laws on the books in nebraska before that iirc

People just seem to care too much about grass..

Oh, I should say the lady across the street thought I was from Vermont, which I take as a compliment.
She's actually really cool, as in my people's kitty corner to me.

But ya, I for one don't care what lenth someone's lawn is at.
And anyway, I am starting to swap out the grass in the front with ground cover.
I have a tree that will not allow any type of grass to grow. It's like a tree of life-looking tree.
Yeah i completely agree. Most americans do care too much about their grass. Possibly in europe they don't even have that.....

No, I can't say that I do.
They are always home, which can be annoying.
One couple doesn't seem to know they have a back yard....the children can be charming, but sometimes it gets annoying.

I really don't talk to them, and had an whole issue with a tree a few years back.

But all in all they put up with me. I might not be the best neighbor but I the best worst neighbor.
My yard can get over grown, but that is an American issue to care too much about.

Either way, I live on the street for decades longer than anyone, and in fact have been in pretty much every house on the street at one time or another. Plus my Grandfather built the house two doors down.
~I have enough cred. not to care what anyone thinks.
yeah, an american issue. Now that you mention it, most european and asian countries don't have the extensive yard thing, do they? Mow every week..etc....

My first night here at my new place, I'd mistakenly parked in the wrong spot. I wasn't told beforehand which spots were ours, so I just parked in the one nearest my place. My neighbor, who shall henceforth be referred to as Fuckface, could have done the reasonable thing, ie, knocked on my door, left a note, or somehow got in touch with me to let me know that I'd taken his space (I learned later that he has two and doesn't use them both, in fact, he parks in between the lines where his two spots are).

Instead, Fuckface had me towed. $300 down the drain for some petty shit, between getting my car back from the tower, the $30 uber ride, and missing two hours of work cause I didn't notice I'd been towed till I went to go to my car to go to work. Welcome to the neighborhood, bitch.
Was this in like nyc or something? I think in my area they won't tow neighbor's cars, maybe

Yeah now that you mention that, I do see that a lot, with many people. Her, with 15 arguments none of which were logical. Have seen that before. Every single person on earth could tell them their argument makes no sense , but they still wouldn't concede. Very frustrating. It's like they're incapable of being wrong. But , they expect others to admit when they're wrong.

There's a spectrum to issues. It's not a yes and no sort of deal. There's a lot of in-between, much like gun control where some people want certain guns banned and some want ALL guns banned. People can be pro-choice, but have a limit.
Yeah, you think most guys on this board are adamantly against abortion on demand , though? Like abortion legal anytime up to birth? Iirc that is the law in china and possibly india, idk

The warmer climate was great for plant growth since plants didn't die during winter months plus millions of years of vegetation not getting cut down means there was a lot of vegetation for herbivores to eat. The oldest Redwood trees today are over 3,000 years old think about how big a tree can get in a rainforest climate undisturbed for a era.
They're certain the climate was much warmer back then? How do they know though?

I remember this story. Lots of CEmen were getting mad that anyone should question the merit of performing what was essentially a back alley 3rd trimester abortion.
So most of the guys on this board were saying the punishment in this case were justified? Isn't this board mostly pro choice?
Another thing. Couldn't this 2 yr sentence have also happened even if Roe had not been overturned? Wasn't it illegal to get an abortion after like 4 months in nebraska, anyway?
