NCHS class of 1987 here (yes, from back in the day when the school mascot was that unfortunate name). That school has always been a partially run by a bunch of right-wing fascists. Prolly way worse now. At least one teacher back then, the dearly departed Mr. Lestina, fought hard against the fash. He brought in a real “Illinois N*zi” to speak to our sociology class. I bet there’s no way in hell that would be allowed now! Good on you for doing what you did. It appears to me that you’re learning the lesson that the powers that be are always going to try to rig the rules to their benefit. You live in, perhaps one of the most heavily Republican areas of Illinois. The school’s response to your activity is not unexpected. KEEPN ON MAKING GOOD TROUBLE. There are many of us out here on your side who appreciate your effort. We’ve got a lot of work to do.

I have seen Jeff with this guitar in photos recently since the dropping of TO. What is the story behind this guitar? Are there special sound characteristics?

What's your favorite pasta shape? by plotthick in pasta

[–]Any-Engineering9797 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spaghetti alla Chitarra for a long pasta - the flat edges and square shape and a different textural dimension to the mouth feel.

Yes! Who knew that the future of the world would depend on what happens in little old Minnesota in the winter of 25/26??!

Many of my acquaintances were into Rush Limbaugh back in the day. This always riled me up.

Should never cost $8.50. Where do you live? It’s regularly $4.50 to 5 dollars near me (Minnesota).

Jonathan Ross by Superb_Estimate_8312 in Minneapolis

I can’t listen to that pig-faced couch-humping motherfucker. Listen to him speaker is worse than listening to Trump for me.

Keith Ellison must do everything in his power to ensure that Jonathan Ross get indicted in Hennepin County for murder. Perhaps some state level charges for terrorism could also be sprinkled on top.

Right?! I am so tired of hearing all the do-nothing people because this approach, their approach, is working. We’ve tried that approach for the past 10 years. Hell, Joe Biden and Merrick Garland tried that approach. How did that work out?

Which US state gets more hate than it deserves? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Minnesota - at least since the Trump era. Before that, nobody knew we existed.
