I want my lawyer to have a history degree or criminal justice degree. Not liberal arts
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
History and law are both classed as liberal arts degrees. Criminal justice may be classed as either a science or liberal arts degree.
The "arts" in "liberal arts" is used to mean the skills are 'a learned art', rather than specifically "arts" such as music, painting, etc.

It was a scam, it is a scam, and it should be investigated as a scam.
Rural Texas school districts are poised to lose millions of dollars in funding this year after thousands of students reported using vouchers to leave for private or home schools, according to a new analysis of state data. bit.ly/4yuz0wK
Just had a $5k home renovation project get messed up by AI. The company took the info I gave to a human & had AI summarize it for their contractors in the field. It hallucinated some details & omitted others. Contractors showed up without the right tools or info for the job. My quote that I signed had all of the correct info. The contractors showed me what was sent to them and it was completely different. Apparently the handyman company uses AI to try to streamline the info sent to their employees or something like that. This is so dumb. I wonder how many tokens they wasted just to make things harder.

people deadass believed a girl went to the police and filed a report to say ‘I had consensual sex’
New reporting reveals that the DA in the Cornell 7 case straight up lied about Jane Doe’s statement to campus police. He defended his decision not to bring charges by claiming she described all activities on the night in question as “voluntary, conscious, and consensual”.
That made no sense in the first place, because who gives a statement to police about fully a consensual encounter?
According to new reporting, she told campus police “I can say with 100% confidence I was raped” and that during the assault, she “was being hit at the same time. Physically hit very, very hard."

Firing military brass and replacing them with Elon Musk a month before an election should alarm every single person reading this. They’re doing the most unhinged stuff out in the open now because NO ONE EVER STOPS THEM!

Every time you say something about Asmongold being a Nazi, his fans flood your replies saying that he's actually left wing. Then he takes a political compass test and it's like "yeah you are 94% a nazi"

This only confirms my theory that there was no hawks hawkeyes confusion at all — they just saw reference to a basketball game and googled the date
SCOOP: I've obtained the Smith team texts that were the basis for Schmitt’s questions.
The texts do not reference either the Hawks or Hawkeyes, raising more Qs about Schmitt’s inquiry.
Elsewhere in the docs though, prosecutors do reference Caitlin Clark.

"Title IX investigation found the player responsible for rape due to lack of explicit consent but reduced his initial two-semester suspension to four semesters of probation on appeal, allowing him to stay on campus and play football."
A Louisiana State University student who claims a school football player raped her last year is speaking out about how the school handled her report and the lack of guidance she says she received throughout the process. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/lsu…

The comments are full of “Hur, this is why he couldn’t win playoff games,” and they’ve 100% got that backwards. A man with this level of attention to detail, inventiveness, and determination is the reason Pittsburgh won as much as it did.

that horrific scene in "Band of Brothers" when US soldiers literally stumble upon a Nazi death camp-- unable to believe their eyes.
one of the men says, in recollection: "now I knew why we were there. I was wondering--what am I doing here--but now--seeing these sights, I know."
would guess that when MAGA is no longer in power, US citizens will see what the ICE detention centers were like. the filth, terrible conditions, impaired or dying inmates, abused children.
the mantra will be: "But we had no idea what ICE was doing... We had no idea."

I heard this story once about a teacher who took a fish out of its bowl and left a classroom of children as it flopped around.. telling them that if anyone left their seat, they would be expelled. All of the children sat and watched as this fish flopped gasping for air, not wanting to get up in order to avoid getting in trouble. Finally, a girl sprang up from her seat and ran to the fish, placing it back in the bowl. Ultimately, she was the only one who refused to watch the fish die.
When the teacher returned he told the class that this was a lesson. That the fear of getting in trouble should never stop you from doing what's right. That sometimes.. you may have to oppose authority and group think, simply because it's the right thing to do.
I think of this often about Palestine and Lebanon.

Remember when coaches like Pitino and Calipari had exclusive deals with Nike and Adidas that required their players to wear their gear during games without compensation? John was making millions while his programs/players were being charged for BS NCAA violations.

In Israel it's permitted, it's expressly outlawed in Gaza and Iran.
