TET: Mutatis mutandis ...

[Thermodolia]

>College is requiring employees to sign new contract to continue working here. New contract requires employees to renounce support for homosexuality, not be practicing homosexuals, not support LGBT rights or students, etc.
>Professors have been - in class - informing their students that they are leaving the college at the end of the semester in refusal to negate their believes by signing the contract.
>Head of cyber security department - in which I am a student - announced today that he was not returning next year because he refused to sign the contract.
>I expected him to sign the contract because I always thought he was anti-LGBT.
>I am so surprised and confused right now that my brain is unsure how to react.

I thought all colleges nationwide were supposed to be the seat of liberal totalitarianism where any anti-LGBT thought is crushed.

Liberty "University" and Bob Jones "University", they are more like diploma mills than a university, exist

[Thermodolia]

Yes, but at least I put the cap on the milk gallon and returned it to the fridge. There should be no other requirement in terms of milk placement and facing.

I mean but what if your husband decided that the bottle needed to face a certain way to save space, WHAT ABOUT THEN?! D:<

Have sex.

[Ethel mermania]

I am married, I learned there really is a wrong way to put the milk back into the refrigerator.

Sorry, honey - you're a man. Some woman somewhere will always find something you've done wrong. *flees like the wind*

Not necessary, the woman who lives in the house I pay the mortgage on does just fine by her lonesome.

[Sungai Pusat]

I mean... Yeah, that was kind of my sentiment, but yeah it probably won't happen regardless of how fucked up we think it is because they won't think it's so fucked up.

I'll be honest, I willingly put myself inside a bubble of denial. The shit that's been happening under this administration scares me. Both as an immigrant and as a woman.

We all need coping mechanisms, yeah...

[Sungai Pusat]

Have sex.

But how much space would that save?

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

I'll be honest, I willingly put myself inside a bubble of denial. The shit that's been happening under this administration scares me. Both as an immigrant and as a woman.

We all need coping mechanisms, yeah...

And it's not even Trump. I'm more concerned about the goons around him. Those are the ones who concern me.

[Kannap]

Not disputing that; more disputing the "federal funds will definitely be cut here" part.

Oh, hopefully that happens. But under the current administration... let's just say I don't have my hopes up here. It's still fucked, however.

Would this jeopardize your degree, Kannap?

We are fully uninformed on the future of the program, the only other cyber security professor lacks a teaching degree or a doctorate, she's an adjunct. She is unable to head the department.

I hope this news increases my mother's favor on my transferring to UNCA since her main praise is the cyber sec program.

If I have to change majors here then I'd be knocked back to freshman status credit-wise because none of my cyber security credits would apply to other majors here.

[Hetalia Dakota 2 II]

Banon Milo 2024?

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Good luck, man. I hope you can transfer and keep your credits. Sucks to lose them after putting the effort.

Banon Milo 2024?

The Pences and DeVos.

[Thermodolia]

Have sex.

But how much space would that save?

Wouldn't matter had sex

[Sungai Pusat]

Yeah...

[Hetalia Dakota 2 II]

Banon Milo 2024?

The Pences and DeVos.

Life is scary, let's pack off and be a big happy family in Hawaii

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

The Pences and DeVos.

Life is scary, let's pack off and be a big happy family in Hawaii

Let's move to Merkelland.

[Hetalia Dakota 2 II]

Life is scary, let's pack off and be a big happy family in Hawaii

Let's move to Merkelland.

I'd go anywhere with you honestly.

[Sungai Pusat]

But how much space would that save?

Wouldn't matter had sex

Okay fair point sex is good, yeah. Everyone has one and I guess if you didn't before, you can get one now and hopefully one aligning with your gender identity you meant like sexual interiors didn't you?

I knew that already and decided that would be a better response at the moment.

Frankenreich is better

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Yeah...

Perhaps it's also the South but I've began seeing an "us" vs "them" mentality around here since November. I feel very much a "them", not a part of. You see it in the looks people give you, especially if you're heard speaking Spanish or even French.

[Ethel mermania]

You may want to let her know the dept. Is in jeopardy of losing its accreditation, and add that to your list of reasons why you want to transfer.

[Hetalia Dakota 2 II]

Yeah...

I've noticed it too, I'm honestly afraid to live my life.

Eww stop

[The Holy Empire of the Spaghetti Monster]

I mean... Yeah, that was kind of my sentiment, but yeah it probably won't happen regardless of how fucked up we think it is because they won't think it's so fucked up.

I'll be honest, I willingly put myself inside a bubble of denial. The shit that's been happening under this administration scares me. Both as an immigrant and as a woman.

My faith in humanity has dropped by about 45% since the election.

[Thermodolia]

Yeah...

Perhaps it's also the South but I've began seeing an "us" vs "them" mentality around here since November. I feel very much a "them", not a part of. You see it in the looks people give you, especially if you're heard speaking Spanish or even French.

I really haven't seen that. Then again I live in a blue island in the middle of a red sea.

It feels like one is doing something wrong. Then I get pissy and keep speaking in Spanish but I have to say it's isolating, the looks you're given. As if speaking a foreign language were a crime. And it's not everyone, but the people who make you feel like that are increasing around here.

But don't you live in America's ass crack? That might have something to do with it
