Trump aides predicting 'brutal' September

President Donald J. Trump Proclaims September 2017 as National Preparedness Month

prepare yourselves for some more stupid bull****.

SA makes new LC threads as soon as the clock strikes midnight. Very hi energy. Not sad!

Since Cohn wasn't on the list I went Tillerson. He's been showing sings of reason and that ain't good in Trumpland.

for thread title staying the same.

Tillerson seems like the obvious choice imo. Other votes so far are for Miller or Conway. I don't see how either of them would go, because neither is ever going to do anything which pisses off Daddy.

the kenyan supreme court has annulled the recent election because of irregularities. people seem to call it a a good thing, but could turn out pretty badly too it seems

Gonna go with boy again.

Wouldn't the bet that Miller gets fired be the same reason for firing Bannon? Sure, maybe Trump likes Miller, but his babysitter generals apparently have hiring/firing authorities. Seems like a sneaky bet they fire Miller for being too deplorable ala Bannon.

Miller keeps a lower profile than Bannon and probably isn't so connected to Deplorable America so he probably doesn't leak as much either and stays off Trump's general babysitters' radar.

Guy in other thread got angry when i mentioned the dumpster diving.

lol

From the "NCAA and college sports are the worst" file: The toll paid by a Florida State TA who fought back against boosting grades for the terrible assignments turned in by football players

spoiler: she loses her job and overdoses on drugs after a back surgery

I highly recommend clicking through at least to see the side by side screenshots of work that FSU football players turned in next to the webpages that they copied and pasted their papers from, or for gems like this:

The school settled Jameis Winston's case for nearly $1mil. And somehow he is the honorary captain for the FSU vs Ala game. Can't say my school has any shame.

Full disclosure: I watch and enjoy college football and am a season ticket holder for a college football team

Reading that work is sad and an indictment of the schools and the system perpetuated by sham amateurism, not the students. The students should be getting paid but since they aren't getting that, they are at least due best efforts to educate them. Not shuffled to advisers and through a system who help them meet minimum requirements and get them to do the bare minimum/cheat to keep themselves on the field, and then are left to their devices with garbagey degrees and little formal, decent education.

Remember the whole promise of the people who organize and control college athletics (mostly rich white administrators and their partners in the media) is that football players don't get paid with money but with education and degrees. In exchange football players get brain damage / cracked skulls, damaged limbs and joints, and the chance to be the ~1-2% who make it to the NFL where only even a subset of that group will have an extremely lucrative career. Second best outcomes involve getting funneled back into the feedback loop of coaching at various levels of the system where you can migrate from getting taken advantage of to also getting paid to profit from someone else's work. All other outcomes are what the students can make of it themselves while admin/coaches/etc. steer and cajole them into joke programs and advisers and assistants who keep the education light so they can focus on sportsball.

Since the schools themselves by and large treat the education part of big time college athletics as a huge joke, they're the ones not upholding the bargain. The students are double victims: told they can't get paid, they are offered instead an education, but the people who insist they can't get paid don't even bother with the education either. That's the heinous thing and what these episodes make very clear.

Sorry, my post probably came across that way but I'm fully on board with the problem here being the schools, not the students.

Oh, ok, he's not racist, glad we cleared that up. But then why is he interested in the David Duke campaign?

Ohhhhhhhhhh.

Re Maggie's Mates

I'm no expert in the UK, but I believe the line about going down the mines with your grandad would have been very noticable at the time.
