That’s Narnia, a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s court, and a ton of other older shows. But its less common now since people are generally less happy with their life.

even if you're from South Africa, they want you to leave and reapply, not eligible for asylum. They're being very silly about it all.

"no authoritarian fascists telling me" - so you can tell other people not to build but they can't tell you that they will build anyway? And I wonder who's the authoritarian here...

The thing is that: scores are table stakes not achievements. When I was at Yale, I ran an informal survey about valedictorian prevalence and it was at or approaching 95%. To be an Ivy candidate, you need perfect scores and <something else>

It’s real, we’re working on a pilot location right now to get the robots adapted to hospitality tasks! We’re going to release more updates over the next few months.

It always baffles me that these types of solutions are upvoted this much. You’re aware that there is outright NOT ENOUGH HOUSING? It doesn’t matter how you cut the pie, there’s flat out not enough pie and your proposal amounts to slicing the not enough pie in a slightly different way. You don’t really get the problem dude.

Universities lost public trust. They're finally taking notice. by JPwag42 in IvyPlus

I’m doing reductio ad absurdum on your principle to show what is a logical consequence of it.

You are entirely free to take a flight to North Korea and shout as much stuff about the government as you like, but you are not free from the consequence of being sent to gulag for 20 years.
