Oh my gravy, y`all, what fucking time is it? Half an hour until alarm time, is what. And I am completely wiped and yet? Got zero sleep tonight. I am so overstimulated it`s ridic. It is all input, no processing, plus a good measure of on-all-the-time extrovert pitchman, and now I cannot get my brain to SHUT UP!
I suspect very little time with you, my peoples, over the next busy week, but what time I have will be profanity laden braindump. You know, all the stuff I cannot say while working with the childrens. The white, privileged childrens that are funding my work. So, I`m like, sorry ahead of time.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Liese, coping~ma, and while this doesn't help you at all, I'm looking forward to your profanity laden braindumps.
I am in a hotel room! And thinking about where to have lunch. It's only an issue because checkout is at noon, and my meeting is at 2, so ideally I need a not too crowded, not too expensive, conveniently located place where I can shlep with my suitcase. Which would be fine, except I'm in Times Square!
Planet Hollywood!
Ha ha ha.
If you're able to get back there later, the hotel will probably let you leave your bag until after your meeting.
Yeah, I was thinking about that, except the meeting is in between the hotel and the train station, so I might as well just take it with me. I'll make it work. For one thing, I have no problem with having lunch at 11:30, and/or sitting in random lobbies to kill time.
Travel~ma, zuisa! Does it make sense to ship stuff?
Sadly, not an Onion article: UNCW prof vows to destroy atheist student groups: "I seek power over the godless heathen dissident"
A Supreme Court decision forced a California state university Christian society to accept gays as members as a condition of receiving support from the school ("Other groups may exclude or mistreat Jews, blacks, and women -- or those who do not share their contempt for Jews, blacks, and women. A free society must tolerate such groups. It need not subsidize them, give them its official imprimatur, or grant them equal access to law school facilities.").
This ruling has upset Mike Adams, a prof at UNC Wilmington. He's vowed to disrupt atheist student societies by filling their rosters with Christian evangelical students, "to use my young fundamentalist Christian warriors to undermine the mission of every group that disagrees with me on the existence of God."
As PZ Myers points out, if the situation were reversed, Adams and his fellow travelers would doubtless be even more apoplectic: "I can just imagine what would happen if I tried to turn freethinkers on campus into militant disruptors of other organizations: their faculty advisors would descend on me in fury."
But Mike Adams isn't looking for debate. As he says, "I do not seek robust debate. I seek power over the godless heathen dissident."
As he says, "I do not seek robust debate. I seek power over the godless heathen dissident."
Godless Heathen Dissidents would be a great name for a band.
