How about no.

Who are these f-ers to cancel anything?

I'll agree with that, but this is her story:

Actress Kate Beckinsale has a chronic condition called Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), which causes allergy-like symptoms and can flare up due to stress, shock, and grief, leading to severe issues like a recent stress-related tear in her esophagus (Mallory-Weiss tear) that caused significant weight loss and a six-week hospitalization in 2024. She openly shares her struggles with MCAS and other health issues, including a ruptured ovarian cyst in 2019, to raise awareness.

Napoles was previously known as Desmond Is Amazing, the drag name they performed under for many years. Since first hitting the stage, they’ve founded the first drag house for youth, walked the runway at New York Fashion Week, been an outspoken advocate for LGBTQ youth, and even met RuPaul at DragCon. And while Napoles says these years as Desmond Is Amazing have been crucial in shaping their identity, they’re moving forward. On the precipice of their 17th birthday, Napoles prefers to be known as Desi, and is focusing on their activism, on graduating from high school, and on expressing themself away from the stage.

While they didn’t officially stop doing drag until 2020, Napoles says they started to rethink it in middle school.

“After I entered middle school, it was like, I may not be doing drag. Then I found the term gender fluid and it really stuck with me,” they say. “That’s how I ended up identifying.”

I bet the Republican turnout for those elections is probably 35%.

I don't think that you realize what the Republican demographics look like out there.

It's pointed out a lot here that there are more Republicans in Cali than populations of most states. While true, Cali Rs are old. School issues don't phase them. They have no skin in the game. If they have grand children, they live in another state.

Statewide, whites are 22% preK-12. The nation's second largest school district, Los Angles Unified SD, is 9.9% Those are numbers directly from Cali D of Ed and LAUSD.


You have been replaced.


In '22 after my aunt passed, I moved an uncle out of there and back to Kentucky. They had been out there since '83, the absolute peak. He was 81 when he moved back and had lived in his last neighborhood for 25 years,

His neighborhood threw him a going away party. 25-35 showed up and all who wanted to talk politics were republicans. They were to a man embarrassed by maga. They were still talking like compromise was how you handled the left. They didn't have a clue that they had compromised themselves out of existence.

They are defeated and know that even when they do turn out they lose. They are cooked.

Who? Former Senator Danforth? Episcopalian minister?

I have a loose(very and I have never met him) connection to him. He's from St Louis. My best friends daughter and sil house sat for him for 1 year when they were finishing up their degrees a few years ago.

He's old school rich. His grandfather started Ralston Purina. He has three mansions(St L, Palm springs and one other). Even as old as he is, he still travels and rotates 3-6 months time at each.

He has divinity and a law degrees from Yale. He wanted to be a minister, but his father insisted he do law. He did both, but he has never had a congregation. In 1968, five years out of law school, he was elected Missouri AG. He was the first Republican elected statewide since Hoover. He started the red avalanche in that state.



That said, he's just an out of touch old man. The wsj wouldn't have given him a forum if he wasn't bad mouthing the current admin.

What if I invested in 2011-12? I wouldn't break even until 2020 and not make anything until 2023.

Is there a reason why you started at 2015?

The x thread that posted all the receipts on this guy had a billing statement from that firm that was presented to his previous employer in pennsylvania.

It was Ray and Associates. They provide that board with three candidates from which to choose.

Ray and Associates was the head hunter on at least his last three jobs.

The current CEO of Ray and Associates is Dr Stephanie Burrage EdD linkedin

Her last job was :lol: Office of Tim Walz Chief Equity Officer :lol:

I shite you not.


If your school board hires these clowns to find a superintendent for your district, you know that all three choices will all be the same.

By the way, Millcreek paid $19500 for their exhaustive search in 2020.
