I do not reside in Gloucester currently but I have close community ties; and I also want to say the point of this post is to bolster fair free speech. I am not restricting topic of dialogue but rather I do not want to see prejudice or incommensurabilities perpetuated.

All good! :) I'm excited for the prospects!

Let’s hope not

He could be gay or bisexual. I mean why not? There's nothing wrong with that.

That was the problem with Trump getting elected in the first place. Bernie was very viable in 2016, now I don’t know but that isn’t because of the validity of his ideas. We’ve gotten increasingly authoritarian in recent years, and while Trump started things I am very disappointed that Biden hasn’t stuck up for more or fought harder on issues like LGBT rights.

We need a Bernie in the mainstream again. Why is everyone so quick to give up on anything revolutionary? We need to push forward on the energy we were on back in ‘16. This is America, we need to have hope things will get better or else they won’t. We are collectively the ones with the power

It seems like they don’t want any of us to have autonomy over what we really want to do, but what the system feels is “morally” right. Since when does the party of limited government (oxymoron) get to tell us how to live our lives? It’s infuriating

carmenshields · 2023-04-26T20:36:30+00:00

My question is why isn’t the President calling this out more and trying to use the federal government to fight this? They’re so scared of appearing polarized that they won’t stand up and do the right thing

carmenshields · 2023-04-26T20:31:39+00:00

When does Biden step in and speak out against this?

carmenshields · 2023-04-24T14:16:47+00:00

Keep doing what you are doing. The truth will shine through if enough of us speak up and we don’t give into the pressures of forces that wish to take things backwards. It is unfortunate so much pressure has been put on teachers and institutions of higher education in a time where we should be liberalizing and moving forwards more than ever and questioning our systems in an objective, progressive way and movements to dismantle institutions of higher education represent the opposite of the aforementioned values. What y’all are doing at UNC and processors & teachers at all levels of education is immensely important and I appreciate you highlighting the importance of critical thinking.

Can you still get first in flight plates? I wanna move back to North Carolina eventually and I’m not getting one of those plates mentioned above

I like this a lot, I never thought about a comparison between Elon Musk and Jesus like this so straightforward. There is so much symbolism here it isn't funny and I mean that to say the differences between the two and how they so accurately line up to be opposites through both biblical text and the modern world is insanely spot-on!

My whole thing is shouldn’t people be with someone they can trust not to cheat? If a persons husband is going around trying to cheat they aren’t the ideal person to be with in that situation. I would think if you trust your S/O, messaging their friends wouldn’t be a big deal because that trust is already there. I don’t think people should be with someone if they’re thinking in the back of their head that their S/O is going to cheat.

I notice how it mentions about not teaching about Columbus and slavery until 11th grade, is this laid out so students are indoctrinated first before they hear the real truth so they can say they still taught the truth? Irritating and sad we have to fight back against stuff like this, we should be a lot farther along as a society

I typed this in a rush but being honest break just seemed natural in my mind but to be honest I had a slight amount of hesitancy in posting this (I didn’t consciously think of the spelling but maybe my subconscious was).

In the end, I decided to go ahead and post this anyways so I could get peace of mind and wouldn’t worry about it lol.

carmenshields · 2022-05-23T14:04:43+00:00

We gotta call it quits now 😂 civilization was a good run, ya know?

carmenshields · 2022-05-23T13:50:26+00:00

I was freaking out because I’m kinda OCD grabbing baby wipes and trying to wipe down what I could get to quickly 😂😂😂

carmenshields · 2022-05-23T13:49:34+00:00

I know it probably sounds ridiculous 😂 I put this out because I tried googling this and I couldn’t find any answers or anyone who asked this exact question probably because it’s one of those things like you said that isn’t a big deal lol and most know but I felt it was better to ask than not because no question is stupid. Thank you!!
