blue collar trump voters are gonna blame anything but him anyway when the price of their household consumption goes through the roof. I wonder how they'll spin that narrative.

I love when people prefer putting not talking about gender in schools at the top of the agenda instead of dealing with school shootings

I dont think so based on my very brief research

llama

17:16

hmm I know some school offer that in their offer (I also believe KS does not negotiate) but I wonder which schools would reconsider with a condition of in state after 1L yr?

@texaslawhopefully: Not necessarily but I believe what Aristotle used to say. He used to say you could not have a functioning political system if you can not get gender relations right. Or essentially that.

HopefullyInLawSchool

17:17

KS does negotiate! I got an email saying theyre doing it for the first time this year

HopefullyInLawSchool

17:18

its rather limited but its not nothing

llama

@HopefullyInLawSchool: noted, thanks for the intel. I know we joke around but all things conidered, KS is goated

@BigStrongBug: Nah aristotle only applies gender as a role which I think either sex could fulfill. My issue with Trump's EO to limit things to only sex but I am fine with him doing it for now.

SplitterusClitterus

17:18

Yeah and Aristotle old as hell boy he would’ve died of hysteria after learning what the internet and tiktok is

@SplitterusClitterus: I think some school shootings could have been prevented if gender relations were better.
