  The McGill Daily, the student newspaper of McGill University, wants a vigil for Harambe cancelled because "The Harambe meme has been used countless times to perpetrate anti-Black microaggressions and reinforce stereotypes, and by allowing and encouraging this event to occur on campus, the student body is making McGill a more hostile environment for Black students."

ON TIME FOR HARAMBE

Hello.

Kneels down for Harambe.

[Crusty Juggler]

Ew.

What is the supposed joke in *dicks out for Harambe* ?

[You Sound Like a Prog (MJG)]

I’ll admit: this Harambe thing is finally making me laugh.

Housing top concern for Vancouver’s new city planner

Vancouver’s new city planner is determined to make it a city for everyone ? and that means making sure people of all incomes can afford to live here.

Gil Kelley, who started work as Vancouver’s new chief planner Sept. 15, said affordable housing is the city’s biggest challenge.

“Part of the job of planning is making sure we’re bringing on a supply of housing that’s not simply trickle-down theory but actually locking in a substantial portion of new housing as long-term or permanently affordable,” he said.

Mever mind the planning of a market, fatal conceits and all that… what sort of track record does this Top. Man. bring to the job, past experience, …

Kelley, who was formerly the director of city-wide planning for San Francisco, said his work in that city ? which faces many similar problems as Vancouver when it comes to housing affordability ? could inform his work.

Oh.

[Rhywun]

Get ready for more tent cities, Vancouver.

[Pan Zagloba]

“why do these assholes keep building real estate for sale, not rent?”

“ask them?”

“NO! We need more rental housing regulation!”

[Ted S.]

Build dormitories for the government-sector workers and require them by contract to live there. This will free up regular housing for the productive sector.

[Agammamon]

Even better – you could build the dorms underneath the multilevel car park garages. Free up a ton of space that way and all those government employees wouldn’t need a car themselves as they’d be assigned a rack in the dorm nearest their place of work.

[Pan Zagloba]

Hmm… Vault-Tec was a public-private partnership, wasn’t it?

+1 Idiot Savant

[Bobarian (Would Chip Her)]

Half right

[GSL in E]

Well, if you can’t trust a former San Francisco city planner to solve a crisis of housing affordability, who can you trust?

[Rasilio]

Easiest way to make sure that people of all incomes can afford to live there is to turn it into a hell hole where no one with even an average income would ever choose to live in.

That is what worked for Detroit

[Agammamon]

It working for San Fransisco also.

[Square = Circle]

My understanding is that SF is turning into a hellhole full of people swimming in money who keep up their houses and don’t piss in the street. Which is tragic, I’m told.

[Enough About Palin]

As someone who regularly visits family and friends there, ^^THIS>

[GSL in E]

The population of the city nowadays is pretty much comprised of:
1. Tech gazillionaires who want a second place in the city, for when they get bored of their houses in Los Gatos/Saratoga.
2. Ex-hippies who bought property in the 1970s.
3. Older people with rent-controlled apartments, who are never moving.
4. 20-somethings with trust funds.
5. Programmers trying to blend into the tech scene, who are willing to pay $1500/month to share a 1BR apartment with four other people.
6. The homeless.

[Agammamon]

Its my understanding that San Francisco is turning into a town of super-rich techies and bums sleeping in late in city-provided tents while people bring them their lunch and everyone in between is leaving.

Anyone who has worked in SF ‘city planning dept’ and includes that in his/her resume needs professional care.

Government robots can’t believe that a private developer investing his/her/xir own money building housing with expectations of profit could possibly make it happen without their benevolent guidance*.

200,000s and 200,000s served.

[Krabappel]

I’ve eaten at McDonald’s plenty of time in my life but I have never had a Big Mac either. Nugs + Buffalo sauce is always a good idea after a night of drinking.

[Ted S.]

Filet-o-Fish for me. (My father is allergic to seafood, so I never got to have fish growing up.)

[Playa Manhattan.]

You probably still aren’t having it.

[jesse.in.mb]

Euphemism?

[Playa Manhattan.]

Just calling attention to the ingredients of the filet o fish.

[Ted S.]

I rarely go to McDonald’s so no, I’m not having a Filet-o-Fish.

But I do tend to order the fish when I go out to eat.

[Playa Manhattan.]

Double Cheeseburger. Add bacon. Sweet and sour for the fries.

[Krabappel]

LOL now that’s some stoner food, there. I always dip my fries in the BBQ sauce.

McDonald’s briefly had a jalapeno quarter pounder that was pretty good but my insides always hurt afterwards.

[Playa Manhattan.]

Yeah, I vaguely remember the jalape?o double cheeseburger.

White cheese, no ketchup, and some crunchy fried shit that I couldn’t identify.

[RBS]

Remember when McDonald’s had pizza?

[Playa Manhattan.]

Yeah. Still do in a few select places.

And there’s a McDonalds in the central valley that has McRibs year round. It must be next to the hog rendering plant or something.

I only eat Mickey D’s once a year when they break out the McRibs.

“Drive-thru”.

[Zeb]

Someone else could be driving.

I used to drive drunk a lot. Because it’s fun, and I had places to go. But now I’m getting old and boring. And know too many people who have had DUI convictions.

[MarkLastname]

You mean you don’t want some of those cool party plates for your car? I thought that was half the reason people did it.

[PurityDiluting]

We had a car full of drunks at the drive-thru with a sober driver and rotated who got to be the sober one each time we went out. Sorry if my short post triggered anyone

[Agammamon]

The societal pressure against drinking and driving has helped gut the 4th and 5th amendments and legitimized police checkpoints.

[Square = Circle]

In CA in the 80s we still had drive-through liquor stores.

[Enough About Palin]

It wasn’t that long ago that Louisiana permitted open bottle while driving.

[Krabappel]

Virginia actually still allows drinking in the car, by everyone who isn’t to the driver.

[Yusef Adama]

[Agammamon]

In Arizona we still do.

I haven’t seen any drive-through gun stores around here though.

I forgot about “flash mobs” entirely.

If it wasn’t a Hillary thing, it wouldn’t be the worst thing I’ve ever seen. I hope that the better dancers were paid. It pains me to imagine people with that much raw enthusiasm for that evil, dreary twat.

[Playa Manhattan.]

If they were paid, wouldn’t that make it not a flash mob? I smell astroturf.

[Zeb]

You mean maybe all those people walking past the camera didn’t just happen to all show up at just the right time?

And where are you going to find a bunch of dancers desperate for a paycheck in New York city? That’s just crazy.

It does smack of Hillary’s “this is what the kids are doing these days, right?”

What a bunch of idiots.

Founder of gay escort website Rentboy.com pleads guilty to promoting prostitution, faces up to five years in prison

Hurant’s federal sentencing guidelines call for a term of 15 to 21 months in prison. He also pleaded guilty on behalf of the corporation that he founded in 1996. He is its sole shareholder.

Hurant agreed not to appeal the sentence if Federal Judge Margo Brodie gives him two years or less in prison and a fine of $10 million or less.

As a wise man once said, “Pimpin ain’t easy, but somebody gotta do it.”

Hurant agreed not to appeal the sentence if Federal Judge Margo Brodie gives him two years or less in prison and a fine of $10 million or less.

[Ted S.]

I believe it’s completely normal in Finland for nuclear families (mother, father children; I don’t know about adult children and in-laws) to take their sauna together with everyone naked.

[Chipper Morning Wood]

Yes, this is the way it is in most normal societies, except for sexually repressed America, where people can’t distinguish between nudity and sexuality.

[Trshmnstr smells of Lo Mein]

This. There’s a line between decorum and prudery. There’s a huge difference between teaching your kids how to respect privacy and freaking out when your kid sees you naked.

The Disproportionate Stress Plaguing American Teachers

Forty-six percent of U.S. teachers say they experience a lot of daily stress?that’s more than what the nation’s doctors report, and the topmost among other professional categories, level with nurses.

“High levels of stress,” said a 2016 research brief by Pennsylvania State University, “are affecting teacher health and well-being, causing teacher burnout, lack of engagement, job dissatisfaction, poor performance, and some of the highest turnover rates ever.” Does teacher stress affect students? “When teachers are highly stressed,” the authors noted, “children show lower levels of both social adjustment and academic performance.” They identified, amidst other findings, that high turnover rates have been to linked to lower student-achievement and increased financials costs for schools.

[Crusty Juggler]

American teachers, I recently discovered, report the most weekly hours of classroom instruction compared to their international counterparts?and given the lack of time during the school day for other essential things such as planning, assessing and collaboration, I assumed that the primary reason behind the high level of teacher stress was almost entirely time-related. But the more I looked into this question of why so many American teachers report high levels of stress, the clearer it seemed that an exceptionally full teaching schedule worked in tandem with another factor: an abundance of professional demands.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Boo fuckity hoo.

[Trshmnstr smells of Lo Mein]

Three reasons (off the top of my head) that American teachers are stressed:

1) Most of the kids’ parents have zero involvement in the education process
2) The teachers weren’t taught any useful skills in getting their B.A. and their M.Ed.
3) When you cram 28 kids into a room and force them to listen to a teacher for 6 hours straight, they get bored and act out

[Playa Manhattan.]

Also, they compared them to doctors, who have to complete a little thing called residency.

[Square = Circle]

There’s also a union-strangled salary structure that chases people with skills and stamina out of the profession, leaving people who can only just barely function to tackle the job. They then expect that same job to be their life-long career, but don’t understand why their wages just get COLAs every year.

[Jerryskids]

4) You’re no longer allowed to smack the little fucks when they need a smack and the little fucks know you’re not allowed to smack them.

[Agammamon]

Hmm, sounds like schools need to split the teaching year. 4.5 months (with 1.5 months worth of days off and ‘school vacation’ time) and two sets of teachers to cover that grueling 9 month work period.

[SimonD]

Why would you ever go to McDonalds if you’re within driving distance of a Whataburger?

(I’ve been having Texas withdrawals lately. Stuck here in Indianapolis)

[Trshmnstr smells of Lo Mein]

The Whataburger is actually easier to get to than the McDonalds, and I’ve got an In-n-out the same distance in the opposite direction. The answer is that McDonalds is where I go when I have $5 and Whataburger is where I go when I have $10. In-N-Out is where I go when I want to feel like I made the healthy decision and don’t plan on getting fries (their fries are disgusting).

[Trshmnstr smells of Lo Mein]

Also, Indy doesn’t really have good fast-food burgers. I was in culture shock when I moved down here to TX and tried Whataburger. Now my wife and I are getting as much Whataburger and Taco Bueno as possible before we move to VA in January.

I seriously can’t think of a half-decent fast-food burger spot in Indy that isn’t a national chain. 96th street burgers were good, but that’s not fast food. Rallys was disgusting. White Castle is only good if your alternative is a razor blade enema. Steak-n-shake is meh, and it’s not fast food. Five guys isn’t fast food, and it’s inferior to Whataburger, let alone some of the sit-down places around here (Country Burger comes to mind here in N. Dallas).

Trump’s Indian-American fan spreads the word back home

He doesn’t use those exact words, but the message is pretty clear.

The fact is, very, very few individuals or business entities can stand up to the kind of relentless professional scrutiny kicked off by a professionally conducted witch hunt driven by apology lust.

More Outrageous Statements By Trump Unearthed

Trump discusses a failed attempt to seduce a woman, whose full name is not given in the video.

“I moved on her and I failed. I’ll admit it,” Trump is heard saying. … The tape was recorded several months after he married his third wife, Melania.

“Whoa,” another voice said.

“I did try and f— her. She was married,” Trump says.

Trump continues: “And I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping. She wanted to get some furniture. I said, ‘I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.'”

“I moved on her like a bitch, but I couldn’t get there. And she was married,” Trump says. “Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything.”

“…just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”

“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

How much damage could a President Trump do? We can only begin to imagine

Mr. Trump has made clear his contempt for those virtues, norms and traditions: He despises the press, threatens his enemies, bullies the judiciary, disparages entire religions and nations, makes no distinction between his personal interest and the public good, hides information that should be revealed and routinely trades in falsehoods.

Volunteer football coach dismissed for making boy run laps after he bullied teammate

Kennedy had spoken to the entire team, which is composed of fourth through sixth graders, about the ills of bullying. He made sure they knew he wasn’t going to tolerate such behavior.

At some point after the talk, Kennedy was told that one of the players was still bullying his teammates. So, the coach approached the boy, who denied it. Still, in keeping with football’s most popular punishment since time immemorial, he had the boy run a few laps around the field.

He told the station that when the boy was finished running, he lauded him for taking his laps without complaining ? another classic coach trait.

The next day, though, Kennedy was suspended. The following Monday, he was fired when the board of the football association unanimously voted that he couldn’t volunteer as the team’s coach.

Obviously the solution was to force the students to hug. And keep hugging until they purged themselves of vile masculinity.
