Dude, archive that shit. Also, archived proof that he's a troon.
George Strait and Johnny Cash beg to differ. This whore isn't worthy of licking dog shit off their boots.
LOL! Wikipedia calls him 'one of the most influential critics of [her] generaton'. Then links to an article that correctly genders him.
Just a degenerate pur sang
Needs another layer of foundation over that 5 o'clock shadow.
And they have the nerve to demand loan forgiveness. Honestly don’t get why colleges aren’t punished for a faulty product
You don't get punished when you serve the powerful.
True
Because even if colleges were working "as intended in theory" you can't directly prove education is faulty in any meaningful way and not the fault of the taught themselves. "No Child Left Behind" tried and it was a massive failure from every angle.
The problem is that you either have the IQ to understand the material that's being taught or you don't. We won't face the truth about IQ because it would force us to face the truth about race.
IQ is more than just about race. Its also a gender problem.
Women have average IQs to a point of creating a perfect bell curve. They will never be capable of handling higher level educational tasks like most STEM, and even allowing them in shows the bar has been lowered.
Good point
Mmm, yes. Higher education. Those saps at community colleges could only dream to comprehend such sophisticated material.
Higher education is just fake education you have when you're high.
I could have stopped at a Taylor Swift class. Any college that offers credit for education on Taylor Swift makes me question the value of their degrees. I've heard on a podcast about a Beatles course too, I think at USC. Also useless. The closest I did in college was I suppose what you'd call "music appreciation" but we went into the history of music going back to the beginning and the structure of classical music, etc. None of which could you find in a Taylor Swift song.
I had a choice between music appreciation, art appreciation, and philosophy. I chose philosophy despite it being known for being difficult because the other two would have bored me to death.
I took philosophy first, dropped it while I could still get my money back because the female professor was crazy. I can't remember why I picked music after, probably scheduling. I worked when I was in college. Scheduling trumped everything including my own boredom, it was all about checking off credits on a list.
Philosophy classes are the weirdest fucking courses and pure intellectual drivel at the end. I took it about a decade ago, the intellectual leap from sophists to sperging intersectional feminism and a “post violence society” had me crying laughing because I got other students to say stupid shit like “if the union forces were entirely compromised by women they still would have won the civil war” (neck beard) and “how difficult can it be to shoot a rifle” (wahman)
Ah yeah. My a friend of mine had the same situation, although I think he took a W and lost the money. I lucked out and got a middle aged white guy.
What music would you say, that was made post 1990, would be remembered in 500 years? Like masterpieces that only an autistic genius or someone toasted on drugs can make. Not necessarily the most popular. Name three.
I hope that after the information apocalypse, when all traces of the Internet and computers are gone, some archaeologist unearths printed sheet music for Rush E and thinks that our musicians were on a superhuman level.
Tool's Ænema, Lateralus, and 10,000 Days albums.
I nominate Cory Henry’s solo on “Lingus”, “Levitation 21” by Tigran Hamyasan, and Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson (came out in 1990).
I read that as Stephanie ButtMonkey.
Eh, not far off.
Is it part of a marketing major? Say what you will about Swift herself, but damn if the marketing team behind her isn't worthy of teaching a PhD level course.
Not really, Swifties are just evolutionary psychology in practice. Swift is at best a 5 whose career is based on telling women they deserve 8+ men who will use them and then dump them. You add in “drama” and you have lifelong consumers who wish to partake in the delusion.
seize the endowments
Makes sense. Swift is one of the head witches of our day.
Are there even Ivy League individual courses dedicated to Mozart, Bach, or Beethoven?
