Rule of Rose is one of those ones that I just figured I was never going to go out of my way to get it, and if it every landed in my lap I would seriously consider buying it. 

Just nabbed a copy of Rule of Rose for a bit under going rate. Mainly purchased to help out a friend of a friend.

therefore GOP = GOD 

So what you are saying is that they are diddling kids at the church bake sale? 

Schools are second to the military on how bad they get ripped off with their budgets. 

Donald trying to use things that Epstein taught him on an older woman and failing. 

Also to steal a quote from Donald himself she "knew what she was signing up for." 

We need to look into who is profiting from the company that was mentioned over and over as the distributor.

Husband found a guy in an arcade forum who imported and sold them. $1000 for the cab, a little over $400 for shipping since he's in NV, so not within driving distance for us.

 

This was essentially the guy's final go. Said they're getting harder to come by and the profit margins are getting low. Like, he might sell again, but he's just decided overall, it's not really worth it anymore, unless he knows he can get a good deal.

Yeah I know there is an arcade in Reno that deals with just Japanese style arcade machines. I was debating about getting an old cab from them and then COVID hit and we haven't been up to Reno in almost 6 months. 

Ugh, I hope I can get a pre-order in. Im currently on a backup card (GTX 680) and need to wait for MSI to get back to me on an RMA. 

Best part is that she attempted to stop him from saying that and he was committed to making sure he made the comparison. 

I feel you guys. I have a package coming from Japan and one coming from Europe. I feel that the is a bit crazy this time. But I guess it might get here when it gets here. 

Remember when the top of the line cards were $500-600? Yeah, those were the days.

Todays March on Washington is pretty big.

 

 

What Trump and his ilk sees. 

All I know is that in passing over my wife's online meeting this afternoon there were teachers yelling at their admin for potentially and intentionally (the first positive came up the previous week) putting them in harms way. All for the school board and superintendent that have been very public in denying that COVID was a problem, to get the district open. All the admin of the school did was threaten to write people that voiced their frustration for insubordination. Rural Nevada as a whole is sufficiently fucked as our numbers really start to climb.  

So from the school board meeting last night for the district my wife teaches in. It was found out that up to 40 students (these are children of staff members) were exposed and 12-15 staff members of the district are waiting on results due to a day care program designed to help staff members of the district get their classrooms ready to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the district. This is a result of 6 children of teachers testing positive during this program.

In my local school district, school was delayed because our county doubled our cases this past week due to an outbreak on tribal land and concerns for the school out there. 

Wife's school district just sent out an email at around 8:30 tonight telling all staff to halt working (this includes online teachers) and have delayed opening until next week. They send it was due to transportation issues. But, due to other county facilities also putting out statements of sudden closure citing talks with the county's emergency manager, the scuttlebutt is that is 1 or more teachers may have tested positive.

People were wearing masks during the 1918 flu pandemic, and we didn't all convert into Islam back then.

 

The fucking irony of using the "those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it" quote is just sickening.

Their were anti-maskers then. But this group (even by historians standards) are a bit more loud about it.

We had U.S. Marshals at our polling location in 2016 and 2018 due to our old county clerk forgetting about a voter roll in 2014 in their desk. I remember in 2016 a Trump voter was arrested for harassing people going into the library to vote by them. 

But I am sure if they are here again for Operation Keep Darkies from Voting that will solidify the Trump people in town to harass people again. 

Also when she was doing her back to school meetings and the principal of her school was explaining how things would work she was proud that say that they where able to fit more students in each classroom by removing the teachers' desk. They allowed them to fit 2 extra student per classroom with the states guidelines for distancing.

Please tell me this is one of the school districts that went with half days and they're rotating the kids for morning and afternoon to lower the number of kids in at a time.

Yeah, they at least did that. Reporting sickness is on an honor system (pretty much every day the kids have to fill out a paper saying they aren't sick, showing signs of being sick or came into contact with someone ill). My wife thankfully after much fighting got one of the online positions for teaching this year. Which is amazing considering that even with lengthy letters from 3 doctors about her health issues they denied, but the day the state's special session passed a bill allowing school districts to be held liable they instantly found a online position for her. 

Man that Marco Rubio tweet knocking celebrities and actors must not had gotten to the RNC.

Home from what? In-person classes?

Exactly. Half-measures for all. 

And that is for the districts that are bold enough to have the kids eat at the school. My wife's district is just sending lunch and breakfast home with students. 

I haven't heard yet. But knowing our post office, even before the USPS mess, we will receive them a week before they are due just like with the primary stuff.

So that pretty much put a nail in the coffin of their "We support the cause and ideals of BLM but were just scared for our lives" defense they attempted to use.
