  • Because the [13] students included as the result of Monday’s amendment are not in good standing, we cannot responsibly vote to award them degrees at this time. In coming to this determination, we note that the express provisions of the Harvard College Student Handbook state that students who are not in good standing are not eligible for degrees. We also considered the inequity of exempting a particular group of students who are not in good standing from established rules, while other seniors with similar status for matters unrelated to Monday’s faculty amendment would be unable to graduate.

    Okay so, if this was your reason, why not have come forward about these than specifically targeting the group of people based on what side of an international conflict they picked?



  • You know, people keep asking what America is going to be like 10, 20 or even 50 years from now.

    I’m going to tell you that we’ll have some of the most spottiest blotches of our history. It’ll be rooted from the times and events where extremely aggressive opposers to generally anything intellectual have gone on crusades to undermine anything they think is a huge problem, like scientists.

    This will be our Burning of the Library of Alexandria. We’ll just have inconclusive data to our researches because of politically charged people.









  • Curious, I checked out Chris Dodd and wonder what he’s up to. He’s a close advisor now to Biden so I’d imagine he’s whispering in Biden’s ear and whoever will listen, about how much of piracy is ‘bad for ya’. In case anyone forgot, Chris Dodd was a major asshole during his 6 year stint (2011 - 2017) with MPAA and he ultimately failed in stopping piracy.

    I don’t think this latest tactic will work. Congress couldn’t even understand Facebook and they couldn’t even hold Mark Zuckerberg of all people, accountable for his shit. Congress, MPAA and all the forces in the world couldn’t stop Kim Dotcom. MPAA, ACE and whatever, still cannot shut down The Pirate Bay.

    They’ll just keep bashing their heads on the brick wall. The only victories they’ve gotten in all of the 20+ year decade war on piracy, is that most times, the sites go down because of lack of funding and support. They only take down big sites because they’ve found weak links or they’ve found those run-a-mouth pirates who’ve gotta go around talking shit about pirating to the point where they’re a liability then wonder why their favorite service/site is shut down.





  • This fucking sucks. It was only recently for a while, I was watching Dragon Ball clips of fights, moments and everything. Dragon Ball was never really my favorite series, it’s only a guilty pleasure that I find myself watching it and having some favorite characters and moments of the show.

    I was more of a Tenchi Muyo/Berserk/Fist of the North Star kind of fan. But I had a soft spot appreciation for what Dragon Ball brought and has done for it’s community. I am also grateful that Toriyama brought Dragon Ball back so it could see new heights in the way of where it is, after Dragon Ball GT and Evolution almost killed the series.

    RIP Toriyama-san.






  • I was a very happy bicyclist for 3 years that had a carriage. Of course my only problem was that the carriage wasn’t big enough for big purchases.

    But knowing that I got to shop and put groceries and stuff in the carriage, riding around car-insurance free, gas-free and the only repairs I had to worry about didn’t amount to an arm and a leg like it would a car. My only other problem is that I picked the wrong bike type which was a one-speed so there was struggle.

    Either way, I’d love to have that again.
