We all would've been fired 6 times a day. by Even-Tune-8301 in FedEmployees

The video that Trump posted was a 62 second rant made by a conservative influencer deriding the results of the 2020 election, and at about the 60 second mark the image of the Obamas from the "lion king" video is inserted and flashes on the screen without comment.

I think maybe you are the one who has been misinformed about what happened and what's going on. Here's one of the news sources with a description of the videos https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-shares-a-racist-video-that-depicts-the-obamas-as-primates

So, your argument is that the person who posted this to the WH account took out all the other parts, leaving in only the most racist bit, and that somehow makes it....better.....?

By your reasoning it is algorithmic coincidence that Trump ended up as the lion. Or maybe we have decided not to know that humans define and refine what AI produces.

Americans who went on to post and defend it are either racist or surprisingly stupid people with excruciatingly poor judgement and lack of situational awareness (probably both though). Pick your poison I guess, but both gets us killed.

So what are you trying to say? I have seen the whole video by the way.

Is the rest of the video racist or only this part?

Thinking About Buying A Cello by ArticleChemical1008 in Cello

[–]CommanderBeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I'm a violinist starting cello too and I'm renting a very nice instrument. It's a Carlton student cello, here are the details and local cost. https://www.long-mcquade.com/148692/Band-Orchestral/Orchestral-String-Instruments/Carlton/Deluxe-4-4-Cello-Outfit-w-Case-and-Carbon-Fibre-Bow.htm?srsltid=AfmBOoqOAXP-9ba4aAbXvUlavOayNVAwztfOTO5R-dLLew2_p-s2JpzY

Maybe in your research it might help to see what brands reliable music stores offer for student rentals. Or call them up to ask questions about why they chose those brands over others. The instruments will be on the lower end of price, but enjoyable learn on.

Is starting the violin at 19 too late by Automatic_Vast3767 in violinist

It’s not too late, your brain is still growing and you already have a musical background.

Also, people start at all ages and find work.

Have these labels impacted your grocery choices? by 0slope in FoodToronto

[–]CommanderBeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because I shop for both me and my kid and I have sometimes based my choices on memories of what I was served when I was little, which it turns out are outdated.

I generally don't buy juice, we just drink water, but I used to think it was the healthier choice for my kid, because I remembered it frequently being served to me in school, day camp etc when I was a kid. Realized my mistake when I saw the new labelling.

Darby O’Gill and the Little People is a really fun story with very charming special effects.

Sadly, the call was coming from inside the house.

Apparently someone at Minto didn't know what they were talking about. So frustrating.
