@MTA@NYCTSubway@LIRR A 1 hour notice to essential workers who have to commute home to outer boroughs. Did you tell their bosses to send them home early? What are the options the MTA is offering these people who are basically stranded?
@RightMag@OkNameChecksOut@brithume@tombrokaw “Certain applicants, because of age and time as a permanent resident, are exempt from the English requirements for naturalization and may take the civics test in the language of their choice.”- taken from the USCIS government page.
@OkNameChecksOut@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw An America that is not a melting pot of cultures is just England without the accents and the Queen. I understand that’s what some people want. Sounds boring to me though.
@OkNameChecksOut@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw Sigh. Being American means what? People in the South speak English that isn’t perfect. Is that not American? The Amish have not assimilated to modern America. Are they destroying the fibers keeping America together?
@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw That comment was centered more around people who have to leave right away, like asylum seekers. However, the post seemed more centered on the English acquisition being synonymous with being American. It is nice that your job offers such opportunities.
@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw Perhaps being able to order food or ask for directions or navigate a child’s school is their SUCCESS because it’s better than what they could do a couple months ago.
@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw But to add to this, learning a new language (especially one like English with all it’s colloquialisms) is difficult. Sometimes the small amount they are able to learn between working and tending to families is SUCCESS to them.
@RightMag@brithume@tombrokaw I’ve met plenty of successful Latinos that speak, dress and communicate perfectly...oh, “perfect” and “successful” meaning “in English”. Oh. Funny.
I understand that most of my tweets are me dragging the MTA to kingdom come. I now realize that dragging the online page means nothing and that I should be dragging the people making stupid policies and price hikes.
Being a model has to be hard af! I saw a listing that literally said “No pay, but will be used in 5 Major News Publications”. And people were actually responded with interest in doing this unpaid shoot that would use their pics basically everywhere.
@RealTonyMay@TomiLahren She is the one who started this by insulting Cardi in a tweet when nobody mentioned her..but she’s the bigger person? Delusion.
You do realize these high taxes you complain about are the bedrock of the Democratic Party, right? If you want lower taxes and more economic freedom, beware of the party you are rooting for.
