  • We stood up during the anti Iraq war protests, occupy Wall Street, blm, pro-choice, marched for lgbtq rights, human rights, the environment.

    We’re burned out because (mostly) nothing changed or got worse… also busy working to the bone to be able to afford to go to work tomorrow.

    Perfect consumer because everything we need to buy is designed to fail and not be repairable.




  • I say next Saturday for the Saturday that will occur soonest.

    If someone waiting at a bus stop asks me which bus goes to the train station, I say the “the next one”. Meaning the one that will appear first at the bus stop, not the one after that. Which makes sense for days of the week too, to me anyway.

    I am always being corrected, though.



  • I don’t understand much here.

    You’re struggling in self taught high school geometry, but tested out at CC.

    You took HS, CC, and online intro to biology classes all at the same time.

    The CC wouldn’t let you run experiments due to lack of facilities.

    You are used as an expert judge in competitions in your (unknown) field.

    You want to maximize time in a college or university research lab.

    I’ll say this, you most likely won’t be in a lab much as an undergraduate, so don’t worry about transferring as a freshman. Why not ask all the friends and acquaintances in the research labs for advice and help? If that’s where you’d like to end up?

    Also, if you can already enroll in the college, then they, and no one, cares about your academic past- especially high school…


  • It all started with a dude looking at skulls, he saw one that was the most symmetrical, the best looking skull he ever saw. He decided it must belong to a white European, as they are the best people (/s). He finds out that the skull was that of a person from the Caucus mountains.

    Caucasian has been used to describe the ‘superior’ white Europeans since. So, OP is using the word correctly really. They say African, Asian, Latino because those are other races… with unpleasant skulls.

    This is a gross oversimplification, but one of the modern excuses for racism and race superiority. Also, why ‘Caucasian’ is used to say white European.
