When I was doing TA work as part of my grad program I had to grade a number of zoomer undergraduate papers and the level of work was quite frankly appalling. I was doing better work as a high school freshman than even some of the top kids in the class. I'm not trying to be conceited when I say that because I'm not some fantastic writer by any means, but it really was that bad. This was at a relatively highly ranked STEM university, too.

When I was in graduate school, I saw tons of PhD students getting groomed by their advisors even though their "research" basically amounted to literature reviews. Of course, they ticked two or more diversity boxes. Meanwhile, white guys with serious topics doing primary research were treated like shit.

Could it be that better writers would be found at liberal arts institutions rather than STEM unis?

Nope, that's a nationwide issue. Main reason is inflation driving the cost of construction through the roof.

I thought they had a statewide pot for the flood insurance otherwise the premiums would be nuts. Is that no longer the case?

He’s correct but Trump has to be careful. I know of so many women who don’t vote based on the important issues. When they see the words “dumb women” uttered by Trump, they feel like he’s personally attacking them and they dislike him. Yes it’s a ridiculously emotional take, but they get to vote and their numbers are not insignificant.

I haven't seen any Kamala signs outside the neighborhood right by Tulane University. Tulane students are just the most naive bunch of brainwashed bots in the city. And have been for decades. Bunch of NE Jews and rich kids.

White House launching Reddit account with updates on hurricane response, preparedness

The White House announced Tuesday that it would be launching a Reddit page with updates for Hurricane Milton as the storm barrels toward Florida.

“We are leaving no stone unturned to reach people where they are, across different digital destinations as well as across different topics,” a White House official said in a statement.

The Reddit page is going to have information about the Biden administration and FEMA’s ongoing response to the storm as well as its recovery and preparedness efforts.

Mandatory evacuations have been ordered for much of Florida’s west coast to prepare for Milton, which is the first major hurricane to directly hit the Tampa area in more than a century.

The Biden administration said it was tracking misinformation online about the storm and was “actively working” to identify and combat it.

The Reddit page will include federal actions and resources, including “state-based sub-Reddits,” sharing already existing hurricane response threads and preparedness efforts.

“The White House will also ensure our information is shared on larger sub-Reddits like r/politics, where we can correct misinformation and clarify the work that has been done by federal agencies in coordination with state and local entities,” a White House official said.

According to the National Hurricane Center, Milton is expected to make landfall on the west coast of Florida late Wednesday evening.​

On Monday, the storm intensified quickly over the Gulf of Mexico and reached a Category 5 storm. As of early Tuesday, it was downgraded to Category 4 and it’s predicted to be a Category 3 when it reaches land, which experts warn is still very dangerous.

The Tampa and Sarasota areas are expected to see 10–15-foot storm surges.

President Biden warned Tuesday that Milton could be the worst storm to hit Florida in over 100 years and urged residents in its path to listen to the direction of local officials.

“If you’re under evacuation order, you should evacuate now. Now, now, now. You should have already evacuated. It’s a matter of life and death,” Biden said.

Hurricane Milton is going to devastate florida and the feds response will be abysmal causing public perceptions of the biden/harris administration to tank significantly which will heavily benefit trump

Libs in the path of Milton might get blackpilled. But I doubt this will change the mind of your average MSDNC viewer. They're too far gone.
