Do people still use ratemyprofessor? The reviews at my school don’t seem terribly recent

I’m not much of a gambler either, but I live in a casino town, and I’ve gotten lots of drinks comped by sitting with $20 in a video poker machine while I drink and shoot the shit with my friends.

Just remember to tip well, and go in with the mindset that any money you’re betting is the cost of entertainment for the evening. It’s a fun way to spend an evening, and plenty of times I wind up going home with money that I would have just spent at a bar.

Edit: also if you’re into sports, the sports book is the way to go. If you wager $10 in what’s called a parlay on 3 different games, you can win $160, so even games you otherwise didn’t care about suddenly become interesting. Betting in three baseball games can be a great way to kill a day hanging out in the summer

Even the cheap places as long as you are wagering a certain amount

He pardoned the conscientious objectors and draft dodgers, gave the Panama Canal back to Panama, founded the Super Fund to prosecute polluters and clean up spills, lifted the military ban on LGBTQ people serving, etc. Sure, he made some mistakes, particularly as it applies to deregulating numerous industries, but in general, he was reasonably close to progressive in numerous ways.

A strong argument could be made for FDR’s government at least making steps toward leftist goals, and Jimmy Carter was a lot more progressive than a typical liberal.

The system isn’t broken; it’s working exactly as intended.

I think you’re mistaking “conservatives and centrists” for “American government”

I don’t know; my wrestling coach used to say “you’re never useless; you can always bad a bad example.” So, personally I think putting his charred corpse on display could serve as an effective deterrent on oligarchs that are considering meddling in politics, especially if Musk was loaded into the doomed capsule against his will by a coalition of the proletariat.

Note: I am not advocating for violence. I’m just saying that hypothetically, if Musk was executed by low earth reentry, others might think twice about trying to buy government influence.

His handlers are just using it as a distraction from the class war. Trump is too dumb and fried to think with that level of intention.

ISIS the American post-metal band, not ISIS “the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria”

or “water closet” in the UK

The music is all written by a member of ISIS, which is pretty heavy, but in an “atmospheric sludge/post-metal” way. So I can see how you’d think that if you’re looking for something more death metal (which would fit in the fight scenes, although atmospheric sludge or funeral doom would go pretty well in the rest of the game)
