@georgetakei I came to understand that the college experience is not about teaching you what to think, but how to think independently, as an adult.
Some thought of it as an extension of high school social clubs and dynamics.
If you had access and took the right lessons and value from the experience, and have no job, that's on you.

They did not agree, claimed "it's not in the Constitution" -

John Breen (jab01701mid@universeodon.com)'s status on Sunday, 10-Sep-2023 10:48:41 JST John Breen @georgetakei So I grew up in Medina, OH, basically all of elementary school 2-6. Public schools. Awesome public schools, teachers, and community.
I am disgusted that this guy represents Ohio in any way. -

John Breen (jab01701mid@universeodon.com)'s status on Sunday, 10-Sep-2023 00:35:30 JST John Breen @georgetakei When I was growing up, a beekeeper in my grandmother's neighborhood had built really cool play equipment in his yard, and encouraged neighborhood kids (and parents) to use it.
Until some kid got hurt, sued him, and he had to shut it all down, lost a lot of money and it probably devastated him, just because he built a playground. -

I'm pretty sure I would have refused, and counted on being able to get a new job pretty easily.

I will not go there, and people who drive my eyeballs there are increasingly deprecated.

John Breen (jab01701mid@universeodon.com)'s status on Monday, 07-Aug-2023 08:41:10 JST John Breen @georgetakei FWIW, your content contains too many links to twitter, or whatever it's called. I don't follow any links to content on that platform. And I even have a bad feeling about people who encourage me to visit that platform.
Except you, because you are Sulu :vulcan_hmn_g1: -

I hope after 250 years the US legal system has figured this out. -

I will build a secure, isolated facility for him in my back yard if needed. -

And the Judicial branch can't constrain the Executive or Legislative branches. Or even individual states like Alabama.
It's right there in the Constitution
