Mars does get a good score on 'noise levels' and 'scenic views,' but the school district ranking isn't great; the only teacher--the Perseverance rover--is too busy with rock samples to teach more than the occasional weekend class.

what is to stop discrimination based on religion or skin color or gender or handedness or whatever? the Justices would do well to read Washington’s letter to the congregation at Touro:

“For happily the Government of the United States gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support”

It's time to break this rogue court.

It is issuing decisions that are a parody of judicial reasoning and which constitute a radical power grab--a judicial coup.

Whether by enlargement or an express legislative limitation of the court's review powers, it's time to end this antidemocratic attack on our society.

I'm just fucking done. Past done.

And yeah--I know nothing can happen until/unless we retake the House and extend control of the Senate beyond the Manchinema roadblock.

Back when I was a kid, I used to eagerly watch Walter Cronkite's *The 21st Century* every Sunday. It tried to predict future developments in science & technology. Somehow, ol' Walt never saw how petty & stupid the future might be.

@MissingThePt that’s what is blowing my mind about all of this. The students who brought the suit think that all students will now be admitted solely on merit. 😂 Apparently, studying the history of colleges in the US pre affirmative action wasn’t part of their curriculum. 🤦🏽‍♀️
