@SyntheticAnima That is 100% inverted from reality. Foreign students have their own tight-knit homework and cheating circles- US students do not. I saw this firsthand as a TA.

The reason is foreign students aren't let into the organized cheating circles btw

Flying sucks lately. Flights delayed more often than not. Airport food with gas station quality but 3X the price. In flight service that’s embarrassing in quality and quantity (if you even get it). It’s a miserable experience and it keeps getting worse.

@westcliff60 @draloneboy Tell Norway, they’re on the brink of bankruptcy 🙄

@draloneboy ANOTHER ill educated American with no passport who thinks everything Daddy Trumpy says is true.
Simple fact. If the price of crude fall below $80 a barrel, which it will , it becomes uneconomical to extract from the North Sea. It’s under water you moron.

TRUMP JUST WENT OFF ON THE UK
"Europe is desperate for Energy, and yet the United Kingdom refuses to open North Sea Oil, one of the greatest fields in the World. Tragic!!!" 🔥
"Aberdeen should be booming. Norway sells its North Sea Oil to the U.K. at double the price. They are making a fortune. U.K., which is better situated on the North Sea for purposes of energy than Norway, should, DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!!"
"It is absolutely crazy that they don’t… AND, NO MORE WINDMILLS!" 🤣

@owroot That’s why I travel with caffeine pills… getting your fix at late hours can be tough in some places.

@RealDonBradshaw @CPC_HQ Land acknowledgements are perhaps the most useless jerkoff gesture ever created. They do nothing but embolden tribes to sue. If you want to lose your country to virtue signal, keep doing them.
English
When a Conservative Party @CPC_HQ Member of Parliament can’t do something as simple as a land acknowledgement, it tells you everything you need to know about this party’s stance on First Nations people. #FirstNations #cdnpoli

@PresentWitness_ I worked for a startup where the CEO repeatedly said that he sought contrarians, people willing to hold unpopular opinions. But when you disagreed with him (or even failed to eagerly support his ideas) he got enraged. A good lesson on the disconnect between words and actions.
English
@eugyppius1 The odd thing to me is that you always seem to see the same cast of characters in EU politics- none elected to their positions, yet somehow they always have a seat at the table, fucking with the lives of everyone...
English
The EU is ruled by weird aliens who walk and talk and look kind of like humans but they have weird skin and they espouse really bizarre opinions and they dress very strangely. Nobody is allowed to talk about this and we all have to pretend it's fine and normal.

@ClintFiore Some won't make investments that have clear paybacks. Talked to one guy who kept losing techs to nearby shops. He was paying very low wages. "Why not pay a little more? You're losing much business because you're short-staffed". The idea of paying less was more important to him.
English
Just talked to a guy that bought an auto shop from a retiring boomer 9 months ago that was doing $1.7M in revenue and it’s on pace to do $2.5M in revenue this year.
Me, “That’s awesome. Everyone always says prepare for revenue to go down first year of owning. What was your secret to first year growth?”
Him, “It’s a 10 bay shop and they were only using 8 bays. I bought a couple lifts and hired another tech and we are now using all 10.”

@hyperdiscogirl The real world can be jarring after 4 years of super woke academia.

at my startup there was a girl right out of college who got hired at the same time as me for the same position, and a week into the job she comes over to my virtual desk to breathlessly inform me that the ceo had said "the r word" in a meeting

@FischerKing64 Deportation rebranded to "population cleansing" is the type of hamfisted rhetorical trick that Libertarians have consistently failed with.
English
The CATO Institute never ceases to disappoint in its abject stupidity. They remind me of East European communists who insisted on the superiority of their system in 1989.
David J. Bier@David_J_Bier
It's the opposite. We need it more than ever today, exactly because of "porous borders and air travel." If we didn't have birthright citizenship, there would be millions of Americans who could be subject to population cleansing based on their ancestry. That'd be bad.

@_sonjawo Based on multiple firsthand accounts from my European colleagues, the reality of “universal healthcare” seems to be waiting 6+ hours in a crowded ER, then leaving in frustration to pay out of pocket for private healthcare. You guys can enjoy it 👍

@adamemedia1 You are completely ignorant of basic Chinese history. Chinese wars have been some of the most bloodthirsty, genocidal campaigns ever.
English
They knew.
They just weren’t interested in genocide.

Always hilarious to me that China and India didn't even know this massive continent in their backyard. And then some English dude from the other side of the world just came along and yoinked it.

@FortIS_55 Nowhere does that image imply that Angela Merkel is the woman depicted by the Socialist icon. Calm your tits down.

Do Americans really don't know anything about politics in Europe?
Yes, they don't. They're genuinely clueless

@ZaidJilani You desperately want to fit this into your "Elon is an evil white Nazi" narrative, but the reality is that BYD significantly undercuts Tesla on price.
English
Chinese BYD outsold Tesla this year in the UK.
Canada is likely next.
Was it worth turning into a white nationalist schizophrenic poster Elon?
English
@patrician_tv Traffic like that is annoying. But it's way better than this (not even comparable).
English
@FlintDibble What do you mean by "hoarding"? Is this wealth stored in a big vault or something? What a childish understanding of wealth and assets.
English
Yeah, hoarding $10T instead of spending it on solving world hunger or improving health care for poor people is comic book villain style evil, narcissistic behavior
Being a good human is living a prosperous life & giving what you can to help others
Dimitri@thedimitri
I love how leftists fundamentally misunderstand how the world works. $10T net worth isn’t “hoarding," it implies massive success and real-world progress in sustainable energy and space travel. But instead, they picture some evil cartoon boss swimming in gold coins in his mansion.
English
@PhillipsPOBrien Is it America that jails citizens for espousing unapproved opinions? Does the USA cancel elections that go the wrong way, or form coalitions to exclude the most popular political parties? No, that's "free and democratic" Europe.
English
The USA has not only ceased being leader of the free world, it has ceased being a member of the free world. It betrays democratic allies and supports expansionist dictatorships.
The only question Americans need to ask themselves is do they want this to continue?

@realdavidonline You should be aware that Tesla and BYD already complete head to head in China, and Tesla isn't "dead" there (I'm sure you'll tell me how entering the US would be completely different for Tesla)
English
Canada will have the choice of buying or not buying a BYD vehicle, just as Mexico does in its free market.
BYD is preparing to enter the Canadian market, with plans to open around 20 dealerships there later this year.
Tesla will die the moment BYD enters the US market and Elon knows it.
