This is peak liberal delusion.
Aspiring teacher gets dropped from student teaching placement before it even starts because the school won’t greenlight a face full of metal.
Their argument: the piercings are “intensely spiritual,” help them feel connected to their “indigenous ancestry,” and they’re affiliated with the Church of Body Modification. They wrote a whole personal statement, claimed religious accommodation, and even offered to just wear a mask the entire time. School still said no—find another placement.
Note the fine print they keep repeating:
“They allow teachers to have studs in their nose btw.”
Professional standards for people who will be in front of other people’s children still exist. Shocking, I know.
This is absolutely brilliant from Laurence Fox
It's a perfect moment to demonstrate not only how intolerant Islam is but also it proves the entire Oxford Union audience know as well despite pretending otherwise
Laurence is about to unveil an image of the Prophet Muhammad, the whole audience are in suspense, there are interruptions, they plead with him, they try to shut him down, the rules come out, there is an intake of breath
You can tell the room is completely on edge from this!
Because they know if he does, his life will be at risk and the Oxford Union may well be at risk too from the supposedly tolerant religion the other side are defending
Proving Laurence's point, that Islam is not compatible with our society at all
I won't ruin what happens you will have to watch for yourselves but Laurence's trick here is absolutely brilliant and well worth 3 minutes of your time
Enjoy
And @LozzaFox take a bow sir 👏
Candace’s team told me she cried and sobbed after watching Stephen Crowder roast her episode into ashes. Her producer said she just sat there quietly processing the damage.
Former Phillies outfielder Harrison Bader is out for the season with the San Francisco Giants. He was in a scooter accident where he reportedly drove his scooter into the back of a fire truck and that fire truck then ran over his injured foot. Witnesses are saying that he was seen drinking at various points during the night before the scooter accident. https://t.co/AQIngR1aBN
No, this isn't three lesbians going about their daily activities. This is actually what Green Day looks like now. Imagine being on your 50s and still dressing like a Spencers employee.
This guy bought a $400 Mac mini and walked into a coffee shop with $2,100 for installing an AI agent that never touches the internet.
I had to rewatch this because the pitch is almost too simple. He shows up, plugs in the Mac mini, installs a local AI agent running entirely through Ollama, done in under an hour. Zero cloud dependency, no API bills, no monthly charges bleeding the client dry. The coffee shop owner gets a private AI system that keeps working even if the WiFi dies, and he walks out with $2,100 for an install that takes less time than a long lunch.
The hardware cost him $400. One deployment and the machine's already paid for five times over. Then he locks in a monthly retainer for support, somewhere around $100-150, which means every client after the first is close to pure margin stacking on top of recurring revenue.
Most people hear "AI business" and think they need to build a SaaS platform or learn to code or raise funding from someone. This skips all of that and goes straight to walking into coffee shops with a Mac mini under one arm.
Not a company that scales to a billion dollars, obviously, but a solo operator clearing a few thousand a month from local installs while everyone else is still arguing about which LLM is best on Twitter.
This is peak liberal delusion:
“Please stop voting Republican… I’m sick and tired of people making this country the laughing stock of the world. We are a third world country… trailer trash… Time to get the trash out.”
Meanwhile, under the last Democrat administration we got:
• The humiliating Afghanistan withdrawal that left 13 Americans dead and billions in military equipment behind
• 40-year high inflation that crushed working families
• Over 10 million border encounters and a fentanyl crisis
• Crime explosions in Democrat-run cities after the “defund the police” era
• Openly gaslighting the public that
“Bidenomics is working”
They call Republicans the laughing stock while delivering this record.
This is the mindset. Document it.
WNBA’s official account just posted a video of Paige Bueckers and Angel Reese placing a $400 personal bet on a league game.
Gambling on WNBA games is explicitly banned under the new CBA.
They deleted it fast.
Reese dropped 22 & 12 in the win and said she’d be requesting her Apple Pay.
Dave Portnoy: “Pete Rose was suspended for life for doing less. Be interesting to see how Cathy Engelbert handles this.”
Rules for thee…
