@EricScottDawson We met at the Syracuse Nuclear Protest outside the Downtown Marriott Hotel on September 5th.
I would love the opportunity to be able to sit down with you and interview you for a story I'm working on about nuclear energy and its recent opposition. [email protected]
“Soooo you mean to tell me that someone down your ancestry line survived being chained to other human bodies for several months in the bottom of a disease-infested ship during the Middle Passage, lost their language, customs and traditions, picked up the English language as best they could while working free of charge from sunup to sundown as they watched babies sold from out of their arms and women raped by ruthless slave owners.
Took names with no last names, no birth certificates, no heritage of any kind, braved the Underground Railroad, survived the Civil War to enter into sharecropping... Learned to read and write out of sheer will and determination, faced the burning crosses of the KKK, everted their eyes at the black bodies swinging from ropes hung on trees... Fought in World Wars as soldiers to return to America as boys, marched in Birmingham, hosed in Selma, jailed in Wilmington, assassinated in Memphis, segregated in the South, ghettoed in the North, ignored in history books, stereotyped in Hollywood... and in spite of it all someone in your family line endured every era to make sure you would get here and you receive one rejection, face one obstacle, lose one friend, get overlooked, and you want to quit? How dare you entertain the very thought of quitting. People, you will never know survived from generation to generation so you could succeed. Don’t you dare let them down!
Give this to your young people who don’t know their history and want to get weak!
It is NOT in our DNA to quit!”
@johnjparker12@David_Bruen I wouldn’t expect much brain function from someone who subscribes to Jordan Peterson’s climate denial and shitty jokes, along with this garbage:
Like imagine being a year away from graduating college and still being just as stupid, or even more stupid, than before coming to SYR.
@johnjparker12@David_Bruen “stops at high latitudes” I’ll give you just a sliver of a win here because I misread that as altitudes, but regardless, “high latitude” is an arbitrary term typically used for auroral forecasting. If we use one definition for the northern hemisphere, it covers the following:
@johnjparker12@David_Bruen Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, yes wildfires are typically always bad because they destroy homes, create and exacerbate respiratory problems, and destroy ecologies. Fires are natural, but as your own study pointed out, the climate crisis is creating more of them.
@rareZuhair@dhof I really think this is their plan, and what’s gonna make them soooo much more money if it comes into mainstream usage. Apple already has so much money though which is wild and concerning as to why they’re branching into the banking world.
@Jish_Le_Fish@Legobuilder9000 Before you enter “The Rift” you need to have a “Dimensional Infusion” which currently costs either 32x Grand Experience Bottles or 200 bits. Or you can wait, and it’s free once every 4 hours.
@OtherPatricj@hmuace@zchrris@Jayd9n @chasedadood @Simon_Hypixel I’d be in support of that, it would allow people who actually cared to maybe get unbanned. It would flood their system for sure though.
@hmuace@zchrris@Jayd9n @chasedadood @Simon_Hypixel I feel like with the amount of accounts that have been banned and the little number of admins available to handle these requests it’s likely too time consuming for them to want to deal with. I bet they know damn well people are alting but don’t care enough to do anything about it
@SkyBlockToday There’s another helmet you get from vamp slayer. I saw it on a player but didn’t get it bc it was disabled at the time. The item is a carpet
