    Caveat emptor

    I'm actually torn on this. I've seen some very bad examples of working for small local businesses. The owners tend to be dictators. They change policies based on what mood they're in. They bring their teenage child into the office with the clear assumption that this kid will be the boss one day...

    Caveat emptor

    Don't get me started on the conventional university path our society pushes young people down. Everybody doesn't need to get an MBA from Harvard when maybe all they want is to work with their hands and buy a small house. When you reject the world's definition of success (own a mansion, drive an...

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    Allow me to clarify my original comment. If a person comes along and thinks they can qualify for certain NA benefits (such as a scholarship) because one great-great grandmother was ostensibly Cherokee, that isn't good enough. Such was all I meant by that remark. There are many cases when race...

    Grades, Showing Up On Time Are A Form Of White Supremacy

    An apathetic redneck and an apathetic soccer mom are one in the same.

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    Yes, shockingly, some racial indicators have to be proven and are thus not arbitrary. Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    Do you know how hard it is to join a tribe that your parents were not already officially members of? Do you know how to start from scratch and get in a tribe? Do you know how to get federal recognition for a nation? They do not not let people walk in from the street, toss around a birth...

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    Ha ha!! This is about how many white people are in your family tree, but that's not a question of DNA or genetics. Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    What do you think direct lineage means? That is exactly the same as a DNA requirement. What do you think the process is to get tribal recognition? Are you aware of the difficulty that the Lumbee nation is having to get federal recognition? Other NA nations are trying to block it to preserve the...

    Grades, Showing Up On Time Are A Form Of White Supremacy

    Crying when they are told to make a phone call in the office in better educated? No thanks. I've pulled my time drying the tears of delicate millennials who didn't know how to meet a deadline. It's all fun and games until a million dollar operation is about to go down because young people...

    Grades, Showing Up On Time Are A Form Of White Supremacy

    All someone needs to do is spend half an hour on YouTube and they will see just how many Heather Hackmans there are in academia. Universities like Occidental are hardly wingnut little places. BLM is hardly a handful of soccer moms holding a bake sale. If you haven't caught onto the YT hate in...

    Horrible horrible unwanted thoughts and frustration

    The confusion about "physicians" here seems to be that Victoryismine feels secular counseling won't address a spiritual situation. Cath was encouraging them to get back into counseling and pray for God to use it for His will. Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

    Why Won't Hollywood Cast Asian Actors?

    That has nothing to do with what I said about her. Hollywood is what it is. If they got better producers across the board, it would be a totally different industry. Asians are hardly unique in being abused by Hollywood. At this point, I am stunned that there are still Christians out there...

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    There are non-arbitrary definitions of race. Try to apply for a Native American scholarship because 1/64 of your DNA is Cherokee, and watch how fast they hold you to a real metric. Ancestry metrics matter in affirmative action decisions, next-of-kin lawsuits, and membership into certain...

    Why can't I identify as Bill Gates' biological daughter?

    Liberals, why can't someone choose their race?

    We can flippantly say all we want that we don't care about silly scenarios. But, when it comes to secular progressives, eventually you WILL be made to care. The progressives on this thread just need a little time to get used to transracials. Check back in with them in about six months, and they...

    Why Won't Hollywood Cast Asian Actors?

    Maybe because she gets tired of having a non-Asian family in every film?

    Have you ever used a Ouija board?

    "Magic for dummies" is popular among curious teenagers. You can convince them to stand on one foot, point at the moon, and recite some dopey phrase, and they will be gullible enough to try it. At least it satisfies their curiosity so they don't pursue the real stuff. Active occultists are very...

    Have you ever used a Ouija board?

    A Ouija board's influence can depend on many factors. Some kids get the little mass-produced boards that come in toy departments, bring one to a party, mess around for fun, and nothing comes of it. Other people, who have series intentions to contact a spirit, may buy a more "serious" model...

    Why Won't Hollywood Cast Asian Actors?

    Really, to be fair to Hollywood, as soon as they start producing more Asian-centric films, they will hear constant complaining about how they don't "get"Asian culture, how they perpetuate Asian stereotypes, how Hollywood Asians are not like real Asians, etc. After Lucy Liu was in Charlie's...
