These privileged frat bros gang graped a girl and invited others to join in.

The story was buried, only two were expelled (Cornell suspensions are for genocide protestors) and we are only hearing about it now because the victim is suing.

Cornell protected them, the police protected them, the system protected them.

This the Epstein class. This is how it’s bred.

GLP1 RAs reduce inflammation in multiple disease models by affecting IL1β, IL6, TNFα, ands the NLRP3 inflammasome. These actions help explain benefits beyond glucose control and weight loss.

So @Data_Annotation turned off their replies after it came out that one for the 7 Cornell rapists is currently employed at their company. They can turn off their comments all they want but here is their company email!

[The Buy American Movement - BuyDirectUSA ❤️🇺🇸 @BuyDirectUSA]

In 2005, Oneida shut the flatware factory in Sherrill, New York.

A town that had made silverware for MORE THAN 100 YEARS was supposed to be finished.

Two men refused to let that happen.

Their names are Matt Roberts and Greg Owens.

Roberts had managed that factory. Owens was another former Oneida manufacturing manager. When the company ended U.S. production, they bought the plant and the equipment and reopened it the NEXT DAY as Sherrill Manufacturing.

They did not have a giant rescue fund.
They did not have a Hollywood ending waiting.
They had a building, some machines, and a workforce that knew how to make forks, knives, and spoons.

At first they kept making product for Oneida.

Then Oneida pulled the remaining American work and sent it overseas.

That should have been the end.

It wasn’t.

They took government flatware contracts to keep the lights on. In 2010 they filed Chapter 11. They sold unused equipment. They sold space they could no longer fill. They leased back only the part of the factory they could still run.

They came out of bankruptcy in 2013.

Then they did the thing that saved the company.

They built their own brand: Liberty Tabletop.

They sold 18/10 stainless flatware straight to customers who wanted tableware MADE IN THE UNITED STATES.

Not through a department store that could drop them overnight.
Direct.

Today Liberty Tabletop is the only company still manufacturing stainless steel flatware in America.

Same town.
Same trade.
U.S. steel.
About 70 jobs.

They did not bring back 2,000 workers. Nobody did.

What they saved was the last line.

If you want American-made forks and spoons, this is the factory that still makes them.

Support Liberty Tabletop.
THIS is what keeping manufacturing in America actually looks like. 🇺🇸

They gave us (night crew) access to the ole social media account.

With that being said, it's interesting that the “L” in “salmon” is silent but loud as heck in “salmonella”.

Anyway, please no full moons tonight unless it's the actual moon.

Kudos to the student journalists at The Cornell Daily Sun.

This is why journalism matters, at all levels. Keep shining a light on the darkest corners of power.

[Fatima | فاطمہ @fatimazahiid]

yes the Cornell rape incident is horrible, but a more overlooked sinister detail is that they advertised it in a group chat and NONE of the guys reported it or stopped them. Men enable men.

[Ruaridh Mollica's Attorney @BruceWayne9851]

Expelled 2 of the 7 but let the other 5 write essays and attend workshops after they pressured her into intoxication and gang-raped her. Anyone involved in the handling of the disciplinary process should also be held accountable. You bitches deserve to be sued for every penny.

[King Roy @RoyIsThaTruth]

The Cornell University r@pist. These men drugged a young woman and took turns r@ping her. In a group chat, they took a picture of her and invited others to rape her. Only two of them were expelled the others had to write an essay. You should be outraged by the outcome. This young woman will forever be changed by what happened to her and these young men get a slap on the hand.

[Jelly 果冻糕 @jellyjellycake]

how can you not believe in God when octopuses DREAM and otters have a favorite rock they carry around in a little SKIN POCKET and cows have BEST FRIENDS and bees are out there communicating the coordinates of flowers through INTERPRETIVE DANCE and they have REGIONAL DIALECTS??

cats are PURRING at frequencies associated with bone healing??? forests get absolutely incinerated and respond by growing FLOWERS??? dolphins literally invent NAMES for themselves and yell them across the ocean??? penguins are waddling around Antarctica looking for the PERFECT LITTLE ROCK to give their beloved???

CROWS REMEMBER YOUR FACE. THEY TELL OTHER CROWS ABOUT YOU. THEY TELL THEIR CHILDREN ABOUT YOU. YOU CAN HAVE GENERATIONAL BEEF WITH A BIRD.

goats have ACCENTS. rats GIGGLE when you tickle them. elephants mourn their dead. whales make SONGS and then OTHER WHALES LEARN THE SONG and suddenly everybody across the ocean is singing the new hit single.

monarch butterflies are born knowing how to fly thousands of miles to a place THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN. sea turtles hatch out of an egg, immediately sprint toward an OCEAN they have never seen, disappear into it for like THIRTY YEARS and then somehow come back to THE SAME BEACH???

birds can see COLORS THAT WE CANNOT SEE. there are colors happening RIGHT NOW that we don’t even get to know about.

there are sea slugs that eat algae and STEAL ITS CHLOROPLASTS and then are just like great thanks I’ll be PHOTOSYNTHESIZING NOW. there are mushrooms communicating underground. there are seeds sitting in the dirt for DECADES like no actually I will wait.

squirrels plant MILLIONS OF TREES because they simply cannot remember where they put their snacks.

A CATERPILLAR GOES INTO A LITTLE BAG, DISSOLVES MOST OF ITS BODY INTO ORGANIC SOUP, REARRANGES ITSELF, GROWS WINGS AND LEAVES.

and you’re telling me a tiny acorn knows how to become a 70-foot oak tree??? nobody tells it what to do??? it just has TREE INSTRUCTIONS INSIDE IT???

your body started as ONE CELL. ONE. and that cell divided itself into a brain that can think about its own existence and eyes that can look at stars and hands that can hold somebody else’s hands and a heart that runs on ELECTRICITY without you even asking it to???

the iron in your BLOOD was made inside a STAR.

I’M SORRY?????

we are walking around on a wet rock covered in bioluminescent oceans and singing whales and laughing rats and birds holding lifelong grudges and flowers exploding out of FIRE and somehow we’re supposed to act like this is a normal place to live?????????

THE DANISH METHOD OF MAKING A LONG DARK EVENING FEEL WARM INSTEAD OF LONELY

Denmark gets about seven hours of daylight in midwinter and keeps turning up near the top of the world happiness rankings anyway. The evening is where they do the work. Twelve things they do, none of them expensive. Save this before the clocks change.

A boy mowed my lawn without being asked, and when I tried to pay him he took a step back like I had drawn something.

"It's free."

"That is not a price."

"It's free."

I asked who sent him. Nobody sent him. I asked who his master was. He said, "What?"

Then he pointed at his shirt. The shirt was orange.

White is where you start. Orange at ten lawns. Green at twenty. Blue at thirty. Red at forty. Black at fifty.

I want to be clear about what I was looking at in my own yard.

That is a belt system.

Fifty lawns, free, for the elderly, the disabled, single parents and veterans, and at fifty a man gets in a car in Alabama and drives to wherever you live and hands you the black shirt himself, along with a new mower, a blower and a trimmer.

I asked how to enroll. You send a photograph of yourself holding a sign that reads I ACCEPT THE 50 YARD CHALLENGE.

I made the sign. I made it well. I used a straightedge.

The age range is seven to seventeen.

I accepted the ruling. I didn't argue. A gate is a gate.

Then I went to find out who runs the school, because I assumed some old general with a lineage behind him.

His name is Rodney Smith Jr. He is not old. He was a college student in Huntsville, Alabama, when he drove past an elderly neighbor fighting with a mower and pulled over. He set himself a target of forty lawns and passed it in about six weeks.

He didn't grow up here. He came from Bermuda for school. He has said he learned about veterans after he arrived, what they had done, and that he wanted to do something about it.

He has also said, and I have thought about this a great deal, that he hated mowing lawns.

The founder of the mowing school hates mowing.

There are six thousand children in it now, in every state. Some of them are eleven years old and two of them share one mower a neighbor gave them, and when he hears about that he gets in the car.

I cut four lawns on my street this summer. Nobody asked me to. I have no shirt and I am not eligible for one.

The black shirt isn't sold anywhere. You can't buy it, you can't order it, and it does not come in the mail.

A man has to drive to your house and put it in your hands.

Stanford University charges $65,127 per year in tuition. A 4-year degree costs roughly $260,000 before room, board, and fees. The acceptance rate is 3.6%. For every 100 students who apply, 96 are told no.

Stanford has also published for free, online, accessible to anyone on Earth with an internet connection over 2,100 courses, the complete AI curriculum its graduate students use, hundreds of full lecture series on YouTube, one of the most comprehensive philosophy references ever written, a design thinking toolkit used by Google and Nike, medical school health courses, business strategy lectures from Stanford GSB, entrepreneurship resources from the university that produced Google, Netflix, Instagram, LinkedIn, and PayPal and research papers that have shaped entire industries.

A Stanford professor told a friend: "Most people think Stanford's knowledge is locked behind a $65,000/year gate. It's not. The gate is the degree the credential, the campus, the network, the diploma. The knowledge has been free for over a decade published on YouTube, Coursera, edX, and Stanford's own website. The same lectures I give to students who paid $65,000 are sitting on a YouTube channel with 4 million subscribers. Most people have never searched for them because they assumed a university this expensive would never give anything away."

She said: "Why would Stanford give it away?"

"Because the degree is the product not the knowledge. The knowledge is the marketing. A free Stanford course that changes your life is the best advertisement for a $260,000 degree. And the research the papers, the encyclopedias, the toolkits exists to advance human knowledge, not to generate tuition revenue. Stanford publishes freely because the mission has always been public. The price tag is for the credential. The education has been free since the moment they uploaded the first lecture."

He showed her 11 free Stanford resources most people don't know exist resources that replaced $3,000 in textbooks, $10,000 in professional workshops, and $100,000 in degree programs.

"Stanford's reputation is behind a gate. Stanford's knowledge is not."

Here are the 11 resources 🧵

[Trump Girl @TrumpGirlLove]

They fold it thirteen times. 🇺🇸

Not to make it smaller.

To make it mean something.

The first fold is life.

The second is the life that does not end.

The third is the veteran — the one who gave years so the rest of us could keep ours. 🎖️

The fourth is trust.

A nation handing its weaker hours to people willing to be strong.

The fifth is the country they swore to.

The sixth is the heart. ❤️

Where the oath lives when the cameras are gone.

The seventh is the uniform.

Every branch. Every name.

The eighth is the valley.
The dark they walked into so morning could still find us.

The ninth is the mother.

The first person who ever taught them what it meant to
protect someone.

The tenth is the father
who watched a child leave and learned how long a driveway can feel.

The eleventh is the ancient seal.

The twelfth is forever. ✨

Then the last fold.

Stars on top. ⭐

No stripe left showing.

Only the field they fought under.

A triangle like the old hats of Washington’s men.

A quiet reminder: In God We Trust.

They tuck the last edge in
so nothing is left unfinished.

Then they place it in a family’s hands.
Not as fabric.

As a life, folded until it can be held.
Thirteen folds.

One triangle.

The last thing a family receives.

On behalf of the President,
the services,
and a grateful nation —
please accept this flag. 🙏
