Equity-Schmequity:
Have you seen this latest bewildering Leftist stunt: “In the name of equity, Oregon gets rid of Math, Reading, and Writing as requirements for graduation.” Say what.” First of all, why go to school? Second, it is the biggest possible insult to the black, Latino Asians, indigenous people community I could ever imagine. And the the program, “funded by the Bill and Malinda Gates foundations says encouraging students to get the right answer to a math question is racist.” Two days ago, I wrote about the horrendous WWII where sons and daughters, husbands and wives, mothers and fathers died for a better America. A better America is lowering standards?
And people say climate change will destroy us. Closing shop on children’s minds will do it for ever.
Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
It seems to me that it is all of a sudden open season for shooting and killing police, and there is only one reason. It was condoned by politicians with no common sense, no principles and no guts.
Maybe if we tell people the brain is an app, they will start using it.

The Taliban is ripping though Afghanistan. Prez Biden spoke briefly saying that he will continue the withdrawal, and that he will make sure that the nations of the world don’t recognize a Taliban government. I think one thing people have missed over the years – the Taliban doesn’t care. They don’t adhere to diplomatic principles.
Owning Moderna stock is a wild ride.
I will watch Jeopardy despite Mike Richards. What a lackluster choice. And what a waste watching all of these guest hosts. Can you say, predetermined?
Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have.
A wonderful 80 something woman I know living in Naples Florida tells me she a has Covid and is battling through. She asks that everybody wear masks. And she emphasizes everybody lay off Governor DeSantis. It’s not his fault, she says, that 170,000 tourists have arrived, “escaping crime in Northern cites. And not his fault tat Biden’s policy on unlawful entry has unvaccinated illegal hordes flocking to Florida’s climes. And of course, those people who just don’t want to be vaccinated. But she tells me, she isn’t going to sit around and stew over opinions of people who don’t listen. She is goon to rally her Repub friends to get out their restock Congress with good Repubs before is too late.
The vaunted AMA (America Medical Association) is recommending removing “Male”, “Female” designations from birth certificates, Huh?
A TV can insult your intelligence, but nothing rubs it in like a computer.
The Dallas Cowboys haven’t been Iin a Superbowl in 25 years, and somehow, they are still America’s team. And the wealthiest of all 32 NFL Teams.
Stories of rape by the Ethiopian and Eritrean government forces supposedly the good guys on a mission to overturn a so-called despotic regime are mind numbing: “The level of sadistic and gratuitous brutality in addition to rape was shocking”. Accounts of the continuous and cruel attacks on woman is disgusting. All I the name of freedom from the so-called tyrannical tenure of Prime minister Abiy Ahmeed. There is a lot to this story as there always in these confused African changeovers. Just to say here. where is the civilization and the promise that a new government will be better?
The Answer:
the list is interesting. How about Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg who sought a fortune sans sheepskin. Or the third richest Larry Ellison and computer maven Michael Dell. Nigerian Orji UzorKalu and Egyptian Haim Saban. Oilman Harold Hamm mad billions without a degree. So did David Green founder of Hobby Lobby and Richerd “Spaceman” Branson. Hair care products entrepreneur John Paul DeJoria. Not a degree to be seen among them. (Maybe an honorary one here and there.)
Why is lowering the bar good for anybody?
Books are just TV for smart people.
