Goodbye my beloved RV camping spot. I barely knew ye

Today I learned Kentucky and South Carolina played Mens Soccer in Conference USA.

LMAO, you guys are delusional. Either we ripped them off or they ripped us off. Acting like an almost exact replica is some sort of coincidence is idiotic. If you don’t care that’s cool. I honestly don’t care that much either. Just call it like is

So the long explanation about how our current Eagle took cues from the stylized worm logo of the 70’s was complete and utter bullshit? People here seem to be taking this pretty well. We clearly ripped off our logo, gave no credit to its original creator and fed students and alumni a line of BS about its creation.

Hopefully his only preexisting condition is stupidity and he makes a full recovery.

Also to be fair to Ricks point other Coronavirus have been seasonal. There is no reason to believe that CoVid 19 won’t slow in the heat of summer. If only a 10% drop in infections were to occur that might be enough to get us through this and to herd immunity. Which is the ultimate goal.

influenza virus, Coronavirus, Rick does not judge by the color of your protein but by the content of your nucleic acid

There is every kind of museum under the sun and they certainly are not all equal in their importance to society. That said museums are not just leisure and entertainment. The majority of museums primary roll is to educate. As a corollary, you have been giving your hard earned money to the airlines to transport you around this earth, sell you snacks, and charge you for everything else under the sun. When times were good with free cash flow these airlines could have been paying down debt, increasing their cash position, increasing efficiency and investing in all facets of their company thus improving shareholder value AND creating a fiscally stronger company that is better prepared to handle tough economic environments. Instead they only focused on the "shareholder value" part of the sentence and took a shortcut. They did this: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-03-16/u-s-airlines-spent-96-of-free-cash-flow-on-buybacks-chart You get to pay twice for your flights now. Listen it all sucks and is frankly against the American way. But if we are bailing people out I am no more mad about the money to the museums as I am the money to the airlines. This example can be applied to many more companies as well. It just sucks but I suppose is necessary.

While posting this on twitter seems a bit tone deaf I don't see much reason for outrage. They passed a 2 Trillion dollar rescue package to save the economy and peoples jobs. Much of that money going to for-profit companies that should have cash on hand to weather a storm. (no one could fully prepare their business for this storm). 4 billion to help save the museums and the estimated 100k workers that are are employed directly or indirectly seems like a drop in the bucket and in-line with the spirit of the legislation. Personally, when it comes to government bailouts, I don't like any of it but I will grin and bear it and hope there are no unforeseen consequences further down the road. Still what will make my blood boil is companies getting tax payer money that have been buying back stock for years en lieu of improving their cash position and paying down debt.

You’re cute.

I will add a comma after correct……..

Correct, Presidents pardon people. I don’t like it. Edit: comma added

But there are plenty of those that fact check Presidents, politicians and the like. Trump lies more than anyone in government, past or present, and its not even close. So who exactly wants to be lied to? Please help me understand how someone supports this President. I truly want to know.

Is he a good person?

Presidential pardons are ridiculous. The President is not a King.
