If our essays weren't about how Burgess was wrong about free will, we failed the class.

We did read Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, and Hamlet. There is no way to make high school kids give less of a **** about Shakespeare than making them read aloud words they don't understand, broken up by a passionless teacher vaguely and unhelpfully explaining the language while refusing to even acknowledge any sexual content.
|
Luckily I had a great teacher for Hamlet. Romeo and Juliet not so much, but I did like me some of the dick jokes on my own.
|
I definitely had a better teacher for Julius Caesar, cause I clearly remember him teaching us all about Caesar's wife offering him a blowjob if he didn't go to the Senate.
|
Julius Caesar is awesome. Best Shakespeare I've read.

Forget homophobia. If you buy from Hobby Lobby you are indirectly funding ISIS. |

Melania Trump unable to leave Hamburg hotel due to protests - CNNPolitics.com
Melania can't leave her hotel because of the protests. She is used to that though when she was in NYC wasting police resources by staying in Trump Tower. |
It's inspiring we things like that are accomplished. Those demonstrators and standing up for it!

Salvadorean man with 39 children may be oldest living man - BBC News |
I don't believe him, lets cut off a leg and count the rings in the femur bone.
|
He certainly doesn't look like a walking corpse! I didn't think it was possible to live to that age.
|
The oldest verified person on record is French woman Jeanne Calment (1875–1997), who lived to the age of 122 years, 164 days.
|
One of my relatives just died at age 108.
|
RIP
I hope there wasn't much suffering. |
SoundCloud Only Has Enough Funding For 50 More Days, Time To Back Up Your Data - Metal Injection
This article doesn't give much reason to be like, "oh no! Not my precious soundcloud." Though everyone might want to back up their stuff if you don't have it backed up. |

What goes through people's minds when they do something like this? Wanting to inflict physical and psychological pain that will last a lifetime for the victims. This needs nipping in the bud immediately. Life imprisonment. The lowest of the low. |
That's actually a pretty big deal about SoundCloud. There's an ocean full of treasure in there. I hope it doesn't go under.

A news story which features an eleven-year-old girl crying on camera is likely to tug at the heartstrings and make you wonder if things couldn't've been done differently:
Why are Iraqi Christians facing deportation from US? - BBC News The eleven-year-old is an innocent victim, and although it's not told that way, imo she is a victim of the folly of her father, her priest and her community. The father: International rule number one for any immigrant anywhere is, "Don't break the laws of your host country or they might throw you out." There are no details of his conviction in the report, but it looks like the girl's father forgot that while commiting a crime. The priest: A Catholic priest was advising his flock to vote for Trump? I thought that the Catholic church usually tried to remain aloof from politics, what with rendering unto Caesar and all that, but if a priest does start doling out political advice, he should do better than recommend Trump. After all, Trump's campaign promises of walls, travel bans and reduced healthcare were obviously contrary to the teaching of Jesus Christ, who is reputed to have said, "Love thy neighbour as thyself." As a supposed expert on morals, you might expect a priest to've spotted that distinction. The community: I was going to say that taking political advice from a priest and voting for Trump are both errors of judgement, but perhaps they better illustrate an absence of judgement; the kind of problems you generate when you abdicate rational analysis in favour of faith. Children naturally trust that the adults around them will protect them from harm. What a shame that this girl's trust was ill-founded and now she is suffering the consequences, not of their malice, but of their folly. |
Police killed a white Australian woman in Minneapolis. The cop has some kind of Muslim sounding name. Probably an Al-Qaeda operative. Trump might make a statement. He's going to be very presidential.
