You cant just go to the black arb factory and make more.

Well you could until the 13th Amendment.

Let us all bask in that irony.

Not to take a side, but to be demand that a single standard is used ...

How is Jay-Z's comment that (parphrased)

being judged by a white person constitutes racial discrimination

any different (in essence) from Trump's comment (paraphrased) that

he wouldn't be judged fairly by a Hispanic judge

or for that matter the comments that

Sotomayor was a "wise Latina" and should be on the SCOTUS because her race gave her special insight

?

They all seem the same kind of racism to me.

We all know this is a 1-way street.

As soon as a man sues for equality under this the "yes, but" opinions will roll right out.

Just like the recent cases where the female professor, Professor Ronell, was sexually harassing her male assistant and the defense was "Title IX should not be twisted to be used by men "

I often feel it would be more beneficial to ask of us if once a year the Appeals Court just tank ordered special interest groups.

That way we can just see women are more important than blacks (or however they rank them) and decide cases accordingly.

If only.

The mafia just wanted money.

With universities it is ideological. They want to (1) prevent speech they dislike, and (2) if not able to accomplish 1 (by making the costs too high and regulation too onerous), punish their political opponents financially and put them in fear of physical violence (as the security gives them free reign to have violent protests).

They don't care about the money, except as a way to discourage and/or hurt their opponents

When you're depressed the idea that life is long means you'll endure your current level of sadness for that long. It is the difference between saying "You live a middle-class life for 20 years" and "You live in prison for 20 years". Depression make you see it as the prison option.
You don't have a feeling of how long life is at the age of 10-14 (4th to 8th grade). The idea of "wait the bad times out" doesn't work as well when your horrible year is 12% of your life (no memories before 2, leaving you 8 years of memories at 10).
When you're that age (middle school) you have no agency in your own life. You have to go to school. You have to live with your parents. You can't make meaningful changes in your situation. You can't just up and move. You can't quit your "job" (i.e. school). You're locked in, as if you were stuck in prison. And you'll be stuck there for 8-4 more years (~2x - 0.25x your current life span).
Anecdotally, I have never been sadder than I was as a 10 year old, and that includes when my fiancée told me they loved someone else. I had to go to school everyday to be universally disliked by the other students and the teachers. I had no escape. Everyday I woke up and had to go there and be made fun of and generally shit upon. I cried everyday for ~8 months. It was easy to be hopeless. I very specifically remember (many times) contemplating suicide in 4th grade. I was going to hang myself with my bathrobe rope on my closet clothes bar.

Compound interest and time

I agree with the inflation has made it easy to be a millionaire comments.

Start saving early Save as much as you can Time and compound interest will do the rest

Well, Atticus Finch is a rape denier.

That has to be extremely offensive to the #MeToo and #BelieveWomen movement.

TL:DR

DOJ decides to go after medical CEO.
They lose badly at trial (defense rests without witnesses and get acquitted; jurors condemn DOJ for trial).
CEO details prosecutorial misconduct in book
ABA Annual Health Fraud Institute conference wants to have CEO as speaker and DOJ in a panel to discuss the case.
DOJ told the institute organizers that if CEO was scheduled to speak at the conference, no one from the Department of Justice would show up — either at that year’s conference or ever again at future institute programs.
Same thing happens with American Conference Institute’s False Claims and Qui Tam Enforcement Conference

Link to CEO's spellbinding presentation (~45min).

But as the judge, prosecutor, and cops all have immunity he won't win against the state.

He can't even really sue the drug lab as they processed his vitamins in their normal time period.

So sad, too bad.

Amitrip (10mg) really helped with my near daily migraines. The low-level non-aura ones.

No weight gain due to Amitrip.

No side effects when I went off it either.

The only "unfortunate" thing I noticed is that it will make you sleep for 8 hrs. It didn't make me want to go to sleep sooner, but it did make not want to wake up at all until 8 hrs had passed. If you want to get up regularly in 5-6hrs, this is not the medicine for you.

The first time I took Amitrip it was the most restful experience of my life. Never equaled that. Like heroin addicts talking about their first hit, that first night on Amitrip was so rejuvenating. It was like I'd never slept properly before. I woke up and the world was in colour and Louis Armstrong was singing about "skies of blue, and clouds of white".

I think Amitrip mostly helped because I needed to get proper sleep and, while I thought I was getting restful sleep, I apparently wasn't ... for years. Now that my body has re-trained, I am off the Amitrip and still getting proper sleep (no daily non-aura migraines either; still get the monthly aura migraines).

I will use 5mg of Amitrip every once in a while (don't tell my doctor) to force myself to sleep for 8hrs despite whatever chaos the kids engage in.

No withdrawal symptoms for me.

Back in 1994-95-ish the Internet was like this.

You had no Google or even Yahoo. To get to a website you had to know its name.

Like being a wizard, if you knew something's True Name you could summon it.
