Defeating the USA hockey team is necessary for European pride (Canadians, I will be suporting for you too👍), just as it was necessary to defeat the Soviet team after the occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1969. I will root for every European + Canada team against the USA hockey team.

A society obsessed by succeSS, the World becomes heartleSS.

For everyone:

I am NOT a leftist,
I am NOT a rightist,

I'm losing my understanding of this world. I'm afraid there's no room for cartoons anymore. The end of all sarcastic humor!

Isn’t it ironic that a dictator sues a dictator for human rights?
Isn’t it ironic that democracy elects its own tyrants?
Isn’t it ironic that we trade facts for comfortable euphemisms?

Isn’t it ironic that …?

Every time we look away, we confirm the system. Every time we stay silent, we become the system. This is only our choice.

This has been going on for years, and despite a voice or two complaining how bad it is, overall, faculty have no interest in changing the system they are beholden to for tenure, promotions, etc. no matter the #corruption.
