  • Yeah, it might be just to arrest him, but America clearly doesn’t give a fuck. The fact of the matter is the people picked Trump this election, if nothing else arresting him will only galvanize his followers and legitimatize their own turn to fascism. There’s no good outcome in this scenario, we missed that opportunity on election night. It sucks but right now we’re the kid playing with fire; obviously we need to learn the hard way. We should’ve learned from the last trump presidency you say? Yeah, we really, really should’ve.











  • I had one geography and pre-algebra teacher in junior high that was like this. She practically refused to give out 100% on any assignment or test, and as far as I know no one ever could. She took the time to pick out any little flaw. Word misspelled? You lost points (granted, that’s fair for place names in geography). Handwriting not typewriter-perfect? You lost points. Didn’t quite erase something to her standards? You lost points. Didn’t format a handwritten page precisely as she defined (and she was extremely precise)? If you’re lucky you lost points, but she often threw those away with a zero. Used the wrong type of pencil? Allegedly she could tell if it wasn’t written with a #2 pencil, and would throw the it away if it wasn’t. The best grade I got in either of those classes was 99.5%. What did I miss? One of my 'i’s had the dot slightly touching the rest of the letter. Real Umbridge character personality-wise too, more than anyone I ever met.

    All this allegedly to prepare for college. So it was a shocker when I got there find out that I could straight up get 2/10 correct on a calculus test but still be graded at 80% because (read this in a slavic accent) “you made mistakes in algebra, but you know your calculus”. Go figure







  • Nah, that’s definitely the blinker stalk. The end twists to turn the headlights on and off and the dial closer to the middle is for adjusting illumination brightness. Another comment said the button on the end is some propriety Honda thing. Plus it’s clearly on the driver’s side of the wheel (though tbf I’m assuming left-hand drive here)


  • We barely have custom roms, and they’re almost exclusively for pixel devices these days. Even new OnePlus phones have no custom rom support because OnePlus stopped releasing the MSM tool that’s needed for any custom development. Til though that incidentally the OnePlus 11 does have some custom roms because the MSM tool for it was leaked, but nothing else released after the 9 has any custom rom development
