@SkyVirginSon … lingam huius posterioristicæ ministri stercoratam, dignissimam pronuntiare, quae anteriori suo lumbricosum mulæ mingentis adlambat posterius, donec rectius didicerit posteriora ex prioribus principiis inferre?”

@SkyVirginSon Original Latin:

"Quandoquidem ille se iam prius scripsit ius habere regiam coronam stercore conspurcandi ac dehonestandi, nonne nobis ius posterius erit, …

@Gundo_OG @jordann50224 He probably did crash out, but don’t change the subject.

Learning specific facts about an individual is not the same as making general conclusions from an obviously biased sample (“I look at resumes all day”).

@NoahCur88319363 @Jasongreer @KKriegeBlog Exactly! It's all pedantic, legalistic word play.

But, if you like the pedantry, at least be good at it.

"There hasn't been a 'King of England'" is not the same as "England hasn't had a king." England has had kings since 1702, but their titles have not been "King of England."

@khnh80044 "Emperor"? I realize that the world is regressing to the 1930s in many ways but I think I missed the reinstatement of the Raj.

@NoahCur88319363 @Jasongreer @KKriegeBlog William III died in 1702. Anne became queen of England. In 1707, the Act of Union unified Scotland and England. In 1714, George I succeeded Anne as King of Great Britain, not King of England.

How anyone could endure life without this knowledge baffles me.

@axelrajr @HiddenHistoryYT I was wondering how the bow of a late-model BB would have fit onto an Essex class CV.

Can we ask AI to generate an image of that Frankenstein?

@Gundo_OG @jordann50224 What about the resumes you don’t see? A couple of my Stanford classmates ended up with graduate degrees of much less prestige for reasons that had nothing to do with crashing out. They wanted specific bits of knowledge. It was more about tying off a loose end than failure.

@Islablonde @DalrympleWill It’s from a satirical account.

@goose_herder @DalrympleWill Epstein. The image is from a satirical account.

@srkntnyldz Selectively compiled video of people acting like weirdos near the horses or who view them as furniture. Then, show a person who exudes calm and acknowledges the horse as a living being. Techniques that basic can be absorbed by anyone who's read a blog post about horses.

@MaxAbrahms Here’s a crazy idea:

Persuade Congress (and America) to vote for war before starting a war like the kings of old used to do.

Apologies for being woke.

@magataotao Henry, is that you?

Catholic, but not my pope? So wonderfully…. Tudor.

@RadishHarmers No meal plan? Get to eat for free by making friends with the cashier who pretends to swipe your card.

So, avoid this problem by requiring everyone to purchase a meal plan.

Am I hypothesizing or speaking from personal experience at FloMo in 1995-96?

Who can tell?

@WhosePolitics @RoseteExposed @brandonschwa7 Yes, but the LSAT and bar exam evaluate different abilities. The best advice I got about the bar exam was to demonstrate "minimal competence." That approach would not have worked so well with the LSAT. I might have struggled with bar exams if I'd tried to excel.

@Meli55aS @brandonschwa7 Two of the most naturally gifted lawyers I’ve ever known needed extra time to pass tests that restricted their ability to work in a profession for which they were both extremely well suited. They were both intelligent in ways that matter to clients but that tests didn't measure.

@SJohnston60 Crassus recruited well too. At first.

“Overseen” sounds like “took credit for a military built by generations of sober, professional experts.” When donkeys lead lions, the lions can, for a while, make the donkey look good.

The test isn’t the first year but the long-term.
