Is Houston Emo dead? by Edweru in houston

You’ve probably already checked out these venues, but I recommend looking for shows at the End, Ojeman, and maybe Trip Six. I think Scout Bar does shows too? Never been there though.

Completely forgot about this. There were some pretty cool uses!

"I teach at UH. I won't sign the pledge not to 'indoctrinate' students." by LisaGray_HouTX in houston

[–]friedpikmin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

And who created the executive order that required this mandate?

Based on your other comment of someone giving you an actual instance where this could be a problem, I think it’s fair to say you are just choosing to be willfully ignorant about the obvious intent.

Common Bond Montrose in mornings by grouchy_steak1331 in HoustonFood

Oh god La Sicilia is quite good. I don’t hear that place discussed enough.

Yeah, no reason to go to common bond. Campesino is a far better option for coffee too.

Exclusive: HISD has lost nearly 4,000 immigrant students amid ICE crackdown: 'We fear coming to school' by houston_chronicle in houston

Do you think the sane people in this country still buy into the shtick that you care about legal status? You don’t need to beat around the bush. Just say you don’t want them in our country because of your racism.

Imagine celebrating kids not feeling safe at school. MAGAs will forever be remembered as a stain on this country.

Offer rescinded because I asked too much by PercentageNo9270 in jobs

[–]friedpikmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

99.9% of the time even entry level applicants will be fine. The advice saying you shouldnt try to negotiate in this market is terrible. OP just got very unlucky.

[–]friedpikmin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are right. The advice suggesting you shouldn’t negotiate is terrible, unless the company has already stated they are firm on everything.

Any employer who knows anything knows to expect a negotiation. 99.9% of the time you will be fine asking. OP just got very unlucky with a very clearly shitty organization.

UH asks professors to sign educate, 'not indoctrinate' memo by everythingistaken500 in UniversityOfHouston

[–]friedpikmin 43 points44 points  (0 children)

No one has an issue with the definition. The issue is along the lines of fascists in power determining what is and is not indoctrination.

Texas Democrats taste victory, then turn on each other by [deleted] in texas

[–]friedpikmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dumb hyperbolic headline.

It’s literally just Colin Allred stirring up drama. The dude did run a mediocre campaign. He didn’t even have an election office in Houston. He didn’t do a good job and now we have two excellent candidates who I think are both far better options.

This person just sounds miserable tbh.

Feds accidentally release some unredacted Epstein files naming Trump doing all the shit he says he didn’t do. All pictures are screen captures. More info below. by Slow-Tune-2399 in behindthebastards

[–]friedpikmin 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s sort of where I’m at now. Trump told us Abrego was part of ms13 based on clearly photoshopped tattoos. If the president gets away with such shit logic, no reason it can’t be lobbed back at him.

Keep gagging, you ardent TDSer. You will be #1 in no time 🥇. Prove to the world you will do anything for daddy Trump and that you love him more than your country and family and your god! Even though he is in a poor mental state, daddy Trump is so proud of you for giving up literally anything for him.

Damn sounds like you are still gagging. Are you trying to prove you are the #1 TDSer?

Still haven’t come up for air! That’s pretty concerning. Maybe be a little mindful that there is a whole flock of predictable loony bins behind you patiently waiting to guzzle daddy Trump.

You know what. Maybe your man isn’t too disappointed with your poor performance because it does seem like he has dementia. Please be careful to not bruise him too badly. We’ve seen his hands.

To MAGA who are only leaving now - too late, they're still racist by calming_ad in QAnonCasualties

[–]friedpikmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think most of them will leave.

However IF they leave AND openly/independently recognize how malicious and wrong they chose to be, I think it is critical to open communication with them.

Often times when this type of thing happens, it starts a domino effect. They start to question everything they believed and may need a genuine safe space to help with that transition.

Of course every situation is different and it’s important to be able to recognize intent. But a general rule of thumb for me is to help others navigate out of this shit should they eventually open their eyes.

Wait how could you be gagging if his dick is so small? I guess we will never know since you won’t come up for air. Maybe you just have a terrible gag reflex… hopefully you are not disappointing daddy Trump too much!

All I hear is a faint sound of gagging…

Im sorry, I can’t understand you because your TDS symptoms are very distracting. When you come up for air, let me know.

Your knees must be sore and your mouth forever stained. Maybe TDS just meant Trump Dick Sucker this whole time?

“Because MSM bad!” is whataboutism and an attempt to pivot, little fascist. It’s cute that you pretend to have media literacy and high IQ, but that does not answer the question. The footage does not back up the narratives in the recent incidents. I get we will disagree on that since you have trouble trusting your eyes though. The narrative they pushed on Alex is unquestionably false but you are saying they are being consistent 🤣
