Every Elon story I encounter can be explained in so many fewer words.

With men on base, they don’t know who needs the brain cell.

Two tweets from sophy ziss on 6/13/22:
“i love my himbo phillies so much”

And:

“A student complained [… that he/she] was uncomfortable in the graduate-level course. …” This seems to be the graphic described as saying “‘Make America Great Again’ is worse than police violence against POC”. I assume it’s disingenuous, but either way, the student isn’t qualified for grad school.

A graph used in a social work course that lists overt white supremacy (like slurs and hate crimes) and covert white supremacy that is socially acceptable (like MAGA and police mustering POC). There is a line dividing them, but it is obviously not a hierarchical listing of greater than/lesser than.
