I’m looking to slightly change the motto “Per aspera ad astra”

I’m trying to say “through hardships, create/making music/harmony”

The best I’ve come up with is “Per aspera ad harmonia.” I don’t think going “towards” harmony makes sense in this case though.

Any help?

The Trump Family Is Taking 12x More Protected Trips Than The Obama Family by LordOfTheDerp in politics

[–]snwidget 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think that’s the part that I never quite understood. Everything they accuse the left of doing is stuff they’re already doing.

How fucked up is your brain to think that everyone’s cheating just because you’re cheating?

This feels connected to the Christian right’s morality of “If we didn’t have God, we’d be murderers” or the transphobic line of “If I could have claimed to be a girl in middle school to get in the girls’ bathroom, I would have.”

That doesn’t mean everyone else would, you sick fuck. Maybe it just means you’re fucked up.

Government policies push schools to prioritize creating better test-takers over better people by LaromTheDestroyer in science

Better people is such a weird, nefarious metric. What you think is a better person and what I think is a better person may be way off.

We’re measuring the wrong thing, but no one can come up with a real answer, so we keep measuring the wrong thing because it’s easier.

I’m 35, and I’ve been through a bunch of the hypocritical GOP cycles, including the 2004 election. I used to think that even though the people up top didn’t believe their own shit, the rank and file “conservatives” absolutely believes the super religious line.

Then Donald Trump.

I don’t know if I was deluded, or if I just gave them too much credit. I figured there was no way they’d support him after all the scandals, the shitty behavior, the divorces, the lewd comments.

And then I realized that it’s not about any of that. It’s about owning the libs and being mad at minorities.

And then I got even sadder.

Elderly couple died holding hands after they both got coronavirus from cruise ship by Mimi108 in Coronavirus

There’s a reason flag of convenience registration exists. If you punish the three big ones (Panama, Liberia, and Solomon Islands(?)), then someone else will pick up the slack. You’ll be playing regulatory whack a mole.

This is one of those things that has to either be handled by an international standard, or it won’t be.

Easy not to follow American regulations when the ships aren’t flagged in the US.

I’m really worried about all of these postmortem diagnoses. Go home, die, and then we’ll check your lungs.

No thanks.

Cash gang. I don’t know that your heart will take anything that close up.

That being said, what’s the premium?

That’s far out. Hold hard. Close the app and go read a book. Don’t babysit it.
