This is quite a strong and ambitious message especially the comment about POTUS. I honestly do not know how this will work but I hope it does lol. Because if Trump succeeds in making America better, it’s good for everyone.
Talarico: The American people cannot wait two years for change, so we must work with President Trump. If President Trump wants the same plaques and portraits as LBJ, we can help make that a reality. We should make the final two years of his presidency the most productive of any American presidency

I think racism might actually be the weirdest mental illness there is.
WHITE SUPREMACIST and COWARD Edward Jacob Lang put on a GORILLA mask and went to the home of three Black Ole Miss students in an attempt to INTIMIDATE them. These are the same three Black women who were targeted last week when racist white students stood at their door making MONKEY noises on their Ring camera. So what does this grown man do? Puts on a gorilla mask, stands outside what appears to be their home and beats his chest at his own camera. And yells ā€œChimping out!ā€ Then he posted it and called one of them a ā€œmonkey b****.ā€ Let’s call this what it is. He’s a RACIST. And he’s a COWARD. A grown man in a mask, hiding his face, trying to scare three college girls at their own home. And this isn’t new for him. Since his TRUMP PARDON, he has been ARRESTED again and again. Minnesota. Twice in Texas. Minneapolis again in August. And right now he’s out on a $250,000 bond for allegedly threatening to SHOOT Black teenager Karmelo Anthony during a murder trial in Texas. The judge ordered a GPS ankle monitor and banned him from the state. But nothing stops him from showing up at three Black college girls’ door in Mississippi. Those young women didn’t go looking for this. He came to THEIR door.

One of the things that I do and has helped me in graduate school is doing one thing, sticking to it and not doing anything else till it’s complete. As a graduate student/scholar, you carry short tasks due this week, longer projects due this month, end-of-semester goals, manuscripts, conference papers, assignments, and constant emails. Your brain treats them all as active at once. You sit down to write a section of a paper and your mind suddenly says you need to reply to an email or set a meeting. You stop. You tell yourself you will return to the paper later in the evening. Then the day ends, you watch something, and you push the work to tomorrow. The next day the same pile is still there and more has been added. This pattern makes deep work hard. Cal Newport’s book Deep Work explains why focused, uninterrupted time matters. I force myself to finish one chosen task before I touch anything else. If a hard book or article review sits on my list, I set a clear deadline such as the end of tomorrow and I stay with it. I do not read a few pages and switch. When my brain suggests an easier task like drafting a short email, I dont indulge it. I can take a short break if I need one, but when I return to work I go back to the same review. I do not start the easier item. I choose what to finish based on the nearest deadline or on what actually needs to move. Once I select it I complete it even when it is difficult. Each time I do this I train my brain to stay with one piece of work instead of jumping. Switching teaches the opposite. You start to believe you can multitask and your ability to focus drops. If you need to submit a job application, finish the application before you move to the next item on the list. Pick one task. Finish it. Then pick the next. That is how the work gets done when the list is long. This is what helped me through graduate school.

How is this a ā€œbest selling children authorā€ ? Be careful of what your kids read people. God abeg ooo
1) If you actually believe that some random college girls made monkey noises as a deliberate slur against black people, you’re too retarded to take seriously. 2) Even if they did (they didn’t), it’s right in line with the kind of racial harassment white people are subjected to literally every day in almost every college, school, or street corner in the country, and it’s not nearly as bad as the black on white murders that get no media outrage or attention of any kind, ever.

Defense came up with two turn overs and the offense can’t do anything reasonable with it. Bunch of lazy heads who can’t do their job and the fans will start shouting Todd Bowles when we lose.
