WTF. 这居然还能拿来当缅怀事迹你们是真不把那五个去新疆的本科生当人是吗？
易中天，高中毕业后在新疆插队，考上武大文艺美学研究生，成为胡国瑞教授唯一嫡传。1981年毕业，按照委培合同的“四大原则”（边疆、民族、带薪、配偶），他必须回新疆，没有任何商量余地。 胡国瑞为了留住易中天，打电话要拜访刘校长。刘道玉却说：“应该是我去拜见胡先生。从来只有官员拜见学者，没有学者拜见官员。”刘道玉找教育部长蒋南翔求了好几次，又动员五个专业对口的本科生去新疆，才换来易中天留校。

I am so tired of every dem rushing in to wish him recover. You could just shut up and say nothing, which is already way better than GOPs and MAGA.

又学了个新短语：
"On biblical grounds" in the context of divorce means that the reason for ending the marriage is based on interpretations of scripture, specifically the Bible. These grounds are often cited as adultery, abandonment, or abuse, though interpretations vary among Christian denominations.

昨天看到图一，然后今天就看到图二：
The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -HL Mencken 如果你想为人的基本自由努力，那你要认识到，你会需要花大部分时间为最卑鄙的人辩护。 因为破坏民众自由的政策和条文，最初都是声称将“只针对某个极为卑鄙的人群”—而你必须从这些源头开始阻止对自由的侵犯和对人的压迫。 A woman whose mother was murdered in 1994 has spoken out after the killer, a Laotian man, was deported by the U.S. to South Sudan under a controversial Trump administration policy that allows deportations to third countries with little notice or due process. The deportation defied a judge's order and has drawn international condemnation, with the UN warning it could lead to torture or death. The woman, now a history professor, criticized the denial of constitutional rights, calling it a threat to the rule of law—even while grappling with the pain of her family’s loss.

Just tried. It will give out the correct answer:

11. I believe our current administration is fascist. Not because I dislike them or because I can't get over an election, but because l've spent too many years reading and learning about the Third Reich to miss the similarities. Not because any administration I dislike must be Nazis, but because things are actually mirroring authoritarian and fascist regimes of the past. 12. I believe the systemic racism and misogyny in our society is much worse than many people think, and desperately needs to be addressed. Which means those with privilege -- white, straight, male, economic, etc. -- need to start listening, even if you don't like what you're hearing, so we can start dismantling everything that's causing people to be marginalized. 13. I am not interested in coming after your blessed guns, nor is anyone serving in government. What I am interested in is the enforcement of present laws and enacting new, common sense gun regulations. Got another opinion? Put it on your page, not mine. 14. I believe in so-called political correctness. I prefer to think it's social politeness. If I call you Chuck and you say you prefer to be called Charles I'll call you Charles. It's the polite thing to do. Not because everyone is a delicate snowflake, but because as Maya Angelou put it, when we know better, we do better. When someone tells you that a term or phrase is more accurate/less hurtful than the one you're using, you now know better. So why not do better? How does it hurt you to NOT hurt another person? 15. I believe in funding sustainable energy, including offering education to people currently working in coal or oil so they can change jobs. There are too many sustainable options available for us to continue with coal and oil. Sorry, billionaires. Maybe try investing in something else. 16. I believe that women should not be treated as a separate class of human. They should be paid the same as men who do the same work, should have the same rights as men and should be free from abuse. Why on earth shouldn't they be? I think that about covers it. Bottom line is that I'm a liberal because I think we should take care of each other. That doesn't mean you should work 80 hours a week so your lazy neighbor can get all your money. It just means I don't believe there is any scenario in which preventable suffering is an acceptable outcome as long as money is saved."

100%.
Could not have said it better... Attribute corrected to the original author of the post, Lori Gallagher Witt. "I'm a liberal, but that doesn't mean what a lot of you apparently think it does. Let's break it down, shall we? Because quite frankly, I'm getting a little tired of being told what I believe and what I stand for. Spoiler alert: not every liberal is the same, though the majority of liberals I know think along roughly these same lines: 1. I believe a country should take care of its weakest members. A country cannot call itself civilized when its children, disabled, sick, and elderly are neglected. PERIOD. 2. I believe healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Somehow that's interpreted as "I believe Obamacare is the end-all, be-all." This is not the case. I'm fully aware that the ACA has problems, that a national healthcare system would require everyone to chip in, and that it's impossible to create one that is devoid of flaws, but I have yet to hear an argument against it that makes "let people die because they can't afford healthcare" a better alternative. I believe healthcare should be far cheaper than it is, and that everyone should have access to it. And no, I'm not opposed to paying higher taxes in the name of making that happen. 3. I believe education should be affordable. It doesn't necessarily have to be free (though it works in other countries so l'm mystified as to why it can't work in the US), but at the end of the day, there is no excuse for students graduating college saddled with five- or six-figure debt. 4. I don't believe your money should be taken from you and given to people who don't want to work. I have literally never encountered anyone who believes this. Ever. I just have a massive moral problem with a society where a handful of people can possess the majority of the wealth while there are people literally starving to death, freezing to death, or dying because they can't afford to go to the doctor. Fair wages, lower housing costs, universal healthcare, affordable education, and the wealthy actually paying their share would go a long way toward alleviating this. Somehow believing that makes me a communist. 5. I don't throw around "I'm willing to pay higher taxes" lightly. If I'm suggesting something that involves paying more, well, it's because l'm fine with paying my share as long as it's actually going to something besides lining corporate pockets or bombing other countries while Americans die without healthcare. 6. I believe companies should be required to pay their employees a decent, livable wage. Somehow this is always interpreted as me wanting burger flippers to be able to afford a penthouse apartment and a Mercedes. What it actually means is that no one should have to work three full-time jobs just to keep their head above water. 6. I believe companies should be required to pay their employees a decent, livable wage. Somehow this is always interpreted as me wanting burger flippers to be able to afford a penthouse apartment and a Mercedes. What it actually means is that no one should have to work three full-time jobs just to keep their head above water. Restaurant servers should not have to rely on tips, multibillion-dollar companies should not have employees on food stamps, workers shouldn't have to work themselves into the ground just to barely make ends meet, and minimum wage should be enough for someone to work 40 hours and live. 7. I am not anti-Christian. I have no desire to stop Christians from being Christians, to close churches, to ban the Bible, to forbid prayer in school, etc. (BTW, prayer in school is NOT illegal; *compulsory* prayer in school is - and should be - illegal). All I ask is that Christians recognize *my* right to live according to *my* beliefs. When I get pissed off that a politician is trying to legislate Scripture into law, I'm not "offended by Christianity" -- I'm offended that you're trying to force me to live by your religion's rules. You know how you get really upset at the thought of Muslims imposing Sharia law on you? That's how I feel about Christians trying to impose biblical law on me. Be a Christian. Do your thing. Just don't force it on me or mine. 8. I don't believe LGBT people should have more rights than you. I just believe they should have the *same* rights as you. 9. I don't believe illegal immigrants should come to America and have the world at their feet, especially since THIS ISN'T WHAT THEY DO (spoiler: undocumented immigrants are ineligible for all those programs they're supposed to be abusing, and if they're "stealing" your job it's because your employer is hiring illegally). I believe there are far more humane ways to handle undocumented immigration than our current practices (i.e., detaining children, splitting up families, ending DACA, etc). 10. I don't believe the government should regulate everything, but since greed is such a driving force in our country, we NEED regulations to prevent cut corners, environmental destruction, tainted food/water, unsafe materials in consumable goods or medical equipment, etc. It's not that I want the government's hands in everything -- I just don't trust people trying to make money to ensure that their products/practices/etc. are actually SAFE. Is the government devoid of shadiness? Of course not. But with those regulations in place, consumers have recourse if they're harmed and companies are liable for medical bills, environmental cleanup, etc. Just kind of seems like common sense when the alternative to government regulation is letting companies bring their bottom line into the equation.

知道黑人女性花很多精力在头发上。以前还以为是文化因素，没想到居然是这个原因。
昨天跟南非的英籍外教闲聊，说到服美役这个话题。我说夏天来了想把头发剪短，这样每天洗头发吹头发还能省点时间。她问我每天花多少时间在捯饬头发上。我说梳一梳扎个辫子，大概3分钟？ 她说，你知道吗，黑人女性每天要花至少半个小时弄头发。因为她们天然是紧密卷曲的发型，留长了会变成很蓬松的蒲公英样子。但是在职场和媒体中，专业的形象通常都是直发或者规整的发型，所以许多黑人女性出于融入社会的压力，最终还是选择花费大量的时间或金钱去改变发质。而且定型剂什么的味道也很重，其实并不是一件让人特别愉悦的事情。有的人干脆把头发剃光然后戴假发，但是假发价格也很贵。 我说，天呐，我真的不知道还有这样的审美霸权。我以前理解的「服美役」只是让自己符合一些特定的审美流行趋势，例如做美甲、染头发，如果我每天要花费半个小时以上「服美役」并且改变的是我天生自带的特征，这样才能融入社会主流，那我真的觉得太不公平了。 她说是的，她们抗争了很久，但还是很难。毕竟社会很多鄙视链其实是暗着来的。 #你在哪一瞬间感受到世界的参差？# #感受到世界是个草台班子的瞬间#

女王一生作为君主自是极成功的，但她对戴安娜王妃的态度和对陷入爱泼斯坦恶魔岛性侵未成年少女罪案的儿子安德鲁王子的庇护绝对算不上光彩。这篇报道说她对梅根也是非常不满。我读了后心想，梅根果然干得漂亮👏👏👏
Vanity Fair's royal correspondent Katie Nicholl shares why a confidant of the Queen believes Meghan and Harry's royal exit "sullied" an "amazing reign." In The New Royals, I revealed how the Queen was "surprised" that Meghan had chosen to wear white, given she was a divorcée and marrying for the second time. Now Bedell Smith has revealed, "Meghan wouldn't tell her about the wedding dress." The monarch did not think Meghan should have worn a veil. According to Bedell Smith, Lady Elizabeth's view of Meghan and the relationship with Harry was this: "We hope, but don't quite think she is in love. We think she engineered it all." And of Harry: "The problem, bless his heart, is that Harry is neither bright nor strong. She is both."

真是太长脸了。
武汉民生银行大厦弘帛物业自取灭亡 领事馆大战武汉民生银行大厦弘帛物业，责任全在物业一方： 罪一；故意误导申请人先排队再存包，还“温馨提示”存包需要扫码，骗申请人把手机带上4楼，然后坑存包费 50元，领事馆一天放500个号就是25000元，一年 248个工作日就是6,200,000（六百二十万人民币） 罪二：为了赚存包钱，忽悠卖伞 罪三：故意拖延安检流程，延长申请人等待时间 罪四：室外等待区完全露天，工作人员坐棚子下，申请人风吹日晒雨淋，就为了挣个卖伞钱、存包钱，吃相太难看 罪五：武汉的7月大楼内外不按时开空调，是想把工作人员和申请人都热死吗 罪六：敢跟领事馆杠，透着浓浓的黑社会气息，难怪要刮存包钱，小气的心态和跋扈的态度简直是在给武汉的形象抹黑 罪七：作为领事馆的物业，连指示牌上的waiting都能拼错，水平可以见一斑，真是给武汉丢脸 由于我们大楼内不安全的温度，美国驻武汉总领事馆将自7月18日起暂停签证面谈预约。因美国驻武汉总领事馆所在大楼的物业经常性延迟开启大楼空调，导致我馆面签等待区上午的室温高达33摄氏度。同时，大楼物业还设置了额外的安保程序，要求申请人需在无遮阳设施的户外长时间等待。我们正在与大楼物业协调改善条件，一旦能够确保申请人的健康与安全，我们将恢复签证服务。我们对许多申请人因此需要重新安排预约表示歉意。我们将通过电子邮件直接联系受影响的申请人。 被取消预约的签证申请人可以通过签证预约系统重新安排面谈。中国其他地区的使领馆签证预约仍然开放。有关详细信息及重新预约，请访问：《网页 i = www.ustraveldocs.com. 美国公民服务的预约将按原定时间继续进行。紧急美国公民服务，请联系 WuhanACS@state.gov.

找联邦工作得写颂圣书了。
A new federal hiring plan from the Office of Personnel Management will require job applicants to write essays about their favorite Trump administration policies and how they would help implement them. The initiative eliminates demographic data tracking and equity-focused hiring, instead emphasizing patriotism, adherence to “founding principles,” and recruitment from faith-based institutions. 找联邦工作得写颂圣书了[抠鼻] 反正都是AI写，看哪个拍马屁拍得出众脱俗 当然川普可能就吃最俗那一套 写得太花哨了他不认识那些单词啥意思
