    Resident Alien appreciation thread

    I liked the 1st season. 2nd season was ok. I grew weary of the B stories. Not that it really matters, but Sara Tomko's (Asta) backside grew enormous.

    Omaha Teacher

    Parking in the yard (on surfaces that are not pavement nor gravel)

    Teacher fired after refusing to use student’s preferred pronouns scores major legal victory.

    No, I don't think he or she would have grounds to fire me. If I were your boss, do you think I should be allowed to insist that you use pronouns consistent with everyone's biological sex, and that if you refuse, I can fire you?

    Where were you when O.J. got acquitted?

    Some place on base at Offutt where they were broadcasting the verdict. I completely missed the Bronco chase. Didn't have the TV on, and it was pre cell phone and Internet. It was like a different world.
