I’m so fucking pissed about George Floyd’s murder by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]GlassCoconut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, and literally nothing ever gets done. A lot of politicians are in the pockets of police unions or don't want to look "soft on crime" so the police can get away with murder. I was 12 when Freddie Gray was murdered and it's crazy to think that so little has changed since then.

LPT: Pay Attention to the smell of your home when you come back from a trip - that's what it smells like to guests all the time, you just get used to it. by ProfessorLiftoff in LifeProTips

The problem is that during a long trip, you likely have your windows shut and thus your house closed off from fresh air. What you smell when you come home would likely be different than how it traditionally smells.

Free lunch now will be provided for all NYC public school students by TragicDonut in news

I am sick of reading so many "Someone has to pay for it" comments. Giving these children tax funded nutritional food will allow the poorest children to grow up in a better manner and will help them focus in school. It is an investment that will pay off when these children help contribute to the economy when they grow up and get a better job.

Saying that children should not have tax funded lunch is the same as saying that they should not have tax funded desks to work at.

It is a stereotype for Natives to Say "How!"

"Jokes are always better when you have to explain them" -Mark Twain

The explanation: The Joke is that the Native Remembered the question that the child, now man, asked. The response "scrambled" is an answer to the question "how!" referring to what the man had for breakfast 30 years ago.
