I find it incredibly WAY too coincidental that just ONE DAY after the Pest conviction/ lockup, Jana takes up the headlines with HER legal problem! J’ Boob no doubt orchestrated this one as his “ distraction”!! Thoughts?????
I need to kill someone a bunch of times via the Red Sign Soapstone to get 30 Sunlight Medals. I can do the same for you, or I can mule for you!
With a very high vaccination rate (for 2 doses at least), isolated location, tight mask protocol, strong medical and epidemiological modeling team and finally, a confident University leadership, Martha's team thought that Cornell would be like a fortress and COVID would spare the University from the worst outbreak.
Instead, the Finals week debacle made national and even international headline and put the University in a, to put it mildly, less than complementary limelight.
However, this does have one major positive side effect. I would envisage every single T200 university leadership team would ask themselves: do we want to be like Cornell? The answer would be a definitive NO and they act accordingly to shut down in December and postpone in person learning for schools staring on January 3rd.
So for students who tested positive during the Finals week, your trauma or at least inconvenience is not in vain. Many students around the country or even the world are saved because no school wants to be like Cornell facing omicrons.
I can imagine Martha as Oliver Reed/Proximo saying "Cornell Students, I salute you." ;)

The sick, the broken, the injured. Or how about the perpetually miserable, condemned to a lifetime of emotional/mental agony. There's a heavy cost attached to continued life on this planet, but it doesn't matter so long as some people get to enjoy themselves.
All the rest who weren't so lucky, assuming they're ever acknowledged at all, are seen to be nothing more than the "acceptable losses". The expendable trash swept away out of sight, or otherwise left to fester in some unseen gutter. The willfully ignored collateral damage, so all those functional, well adjusted, and overall life satisfied people could be born. When it comes to the calculations of most everyone out there, it's far more important to allow people capable of being satisfied by life to be born, than it is to prevent the birth of those who will never know any such kind of satisfaction.
And thus this wretched dynamic will never change, and when it comes to someone such as myself, in my own kind of excruciating predicament, the grim truth is that I won't be the last, and there are many growing up now, or those that have yet to be born, who will be forced to pay this unspeakably cruel price, just like I and many others have had to, so our species, including life itself, can keep existing on this planet, and so that a few can manage to have a good time at the expense of the rest. Much as prospective parents, or pro-lifers, would seek to downplay, or outright deny it.
With Shitadel processing the majority of retail order flow in the U.S. they’ve got the insight into whether retail by and large decides to go long or go short on the steaming pile of excrement called Robbinghood, and the bad actors will do the opposite.
I know everybody is getting sick of Robbinghood posts but I think this is one of their last plays and the result does have a profound effect on GME.
The only way retail wins this particular battle is to avoid it completely, to not go long or short and leave that garbage pile to burn itself out. Otherwise the powers will take the other side of the trade and they’ll utterly crush retail.
Regarding the 552 ACW there is a lot of good discussion, but even if this OG is fired (well deserved for the provided evidence) it does not fix the climate overall at the 552ACW.
The right answer may be firing, or not firing, more people; but I would implore higher-ups to really focus in on the 552 ACW and AWACS community at large.
Where there is smoke there is fire. Stepping out one ember doesn't dull the fire in the dumpster. This is evidenced (in my opinion only) by many leaders distancing themselves from the OG. Please take a closer look, that's a big wing. The OG didn't get to where he is right now by himself. He was mentored, lead, and rewarded that way by the community.
Take the litmus test for what it is.
If you had the choice to wake up tomorrow morning, rejuvenated, would you wake up? Or would you lie at rest, letting go of the steering wheel, and finally being truly free.
I wake up, jolting up from the cold floor. Immediately I look upon the space before me, only I cannot see anything. I look out to scan my surroundings, yet all I see is pure nothingness. I start to panic, as any well-minded person would, and begin to yell out a blood-curdling cry for help. No reply. My voice returned to me not long after in the form of an echo, which gave me the impression that I was at least in an enclosure of some kind. I continue this for many hours, or was it minutes? I can’t remember nor can I recall any other noise besides my own, that very fact struck me. I was truly alone in this place, with no one to help me out.
In an attempt to calm me down, I begin to list off what I already know.
“I’m in a room with no light, and no one around, but my ears are still functional, at least that’s something,”
I realize that my list isn’t as long as I expected it to be, so I keep myself on the subject of my senses because somehow I think that the certainty of their functionality will help me cope. I decide to check for touch, since I haven’t touched anything other than my body, but then again, the room is too cold for me to get any stimulation from my fragile husk of a body. I remove my right arm from its grasp around my chest and motion it towards what seems like the floor. I graze my fingertips across what feels like cement, only it’s dirtier and gritty. My hand starts to travel along the floor, and I soon feel imperfections in it, like embedded lines, similar to floor tiles. After some time I start to feel a wet spot on the ground which snaps me from my trance. It takes a while to remember what I was doing. “I can feel, that’s another thing,”
I move onto taste, and slowly begin to move my finger to my tongue, the taste is similar to sweat, salty, yet I haven’t felt a drop of sweat escape my skin.
“I can taste, gotta add that to the list”
I chuckle, for quite a while, trying to ease the quiet and barren mood with some humanity. That experience brings back my memory of the time I had my first crawfish As a child, I found them, repulsive to say the least, but after some forced consumption by my friends, I had grown quite fond of the freshwater delicacy. I return to my situation and look out into the void, still nothing.
I continue with my rea
