Wow, guys, I have to eat some crow.
Ive given a lot of shit to McCreight over the years, but shes just announced her new job on Twitter, and I have to say, I really respect it. It seems she has decided to invest in the science education of disadvantaged black, Native, hispanic, and just plain poor kids by moving to Oklahoma to teach high school science. Wow. I am stunned.
lol jk she wasted hundreds of thousands of tax-payers dollars to get a vanity degree, sat on her ass playing video games for a year, and with a degree from a highly respected lab at a top tier research institution, shes doing marketing for 23andme lol

As to her education being paid for by the government, doesn't that work out to government loans that need to be paid back? As long as she has an income, she can do that.
Re: Give Me a Urinal or Give Me Death!
Govt. financial aid is a mixture of grants and loans. Grants don't have to be paid back but they're piddly amounts. You'd have trouble getting a grant to cover your full tuition even if you went to Bumfuck Community College.

Also, you get paid to get PhDs in the US. No loans. Salary, healthcare, tuition covered.
Re: Give Me a Urinal or Give Me Death!
Btw if any of you want to get a PhD in biology but worry about expenses, you get paid. I'm sure students in high-cost-of-living cities struggle, but I lived comfortably in OK on a grad student stipend. Current level is $24k a year. Not a lot, but you're getting a degree out of it too.

Alternatively:
Here the artist invokes Hegel in a synthesis of Black Lives Matter and life in the age of Trump. Skillfully subverting Fredrick Douglas' phrase “The silver trumpet of freedom had roused my soul to eternal wakefulness” her Surliness demonstrates how education in modern America enslaves the poor, by benefiting the rich. This combined with an homage to René Magritte the artiste masterfully skewers the capitalist system, and indeed all systems. Like her career, this an anguished cry from a blue collar working artist.
Re: Give Me a Urinal or Give Me Death!
I'm inclined to think it's probably an actual trumpet image run through a Photoshop filter or two.

You can also plant citronella and mint to repel, but those are of minimal if any effectiveness. The C02 traps work pretty well, and you shouldn't do in too many pollinating insects.
I'm sure Matt will have good advice. Horses seem to attract hordes of bloodsucking insects.

Frogsplainin' :naughty:Lsuoma wrote:Right, but terre is very much related to the physical location, the soil, etc. Pays is more conceptual, and is related to a polity or state. Coupling a concept like liberty with a bit of dirt is a solecism for sure.Phil_Giordana_FCD wrote:Correct, Lsuoma. 'Le pays de la liberté' would be more salient.
BUT, 'la terre' is also not completely wrong. When we use 'la terre', as in 'la terre de nos ancêtres', it means 'the land of our ancestors'. It still feels a bit weird when put the way Surly did.
