TIL Karl Marx was a massive racist and anti-Semite. I knew he was a bad guy but had no idea he was a virulent racist.

Source? I thought he was Jewish himself. I think he hated the money aspect and the Judaism aspect of the Jews, not so much the ethnicity itself

Art is a cathartic process for me. It has been a decade or more since I have used charcoal to create. When my students requested it as a unit this quarter, I was mildly excited.

After a few quick sketches, my excitement has grown.

Our appraisal came through exactly as the offer price we put. Apparently by lenders 3rd party. Isnt that a bit fishy? If it came in lower our contract has the option to negotiate a bit with seller. Is lender just trying to push this along faster? I'm pretty sure in this crazy market the home is not valued at what we offered. Why would seller put a much lower asking price then? Make no sense. Please advise!

Anyone have any good advice for getting students to think/respond on their own?

The claims: ‘Trump inherited an amazing economy!!’ ‘No Trump unleashed the powers of the free market by lowering taxes!!’

The truth: We leverage our valuations with bad debt fostered by addictive and uncontrolled spending. It leads to companies (and sovereign entities) being fragile and vulnerable to seismic shocks. If housing/labor markets roll over, there’ll be cascading consequences rooted in the debt burden.

Trump closed China👍🏽
- And left the UK open
- And called the virus a hoax
- And refused to get enough ppe and ventilators
- And refused to give equipment to Dem govs
- And refused to promote wearing masks
- And failed to shut down infected cities
- And lied about possible cures
- And spent countless days golfing
- And tweeting
- And worrying about every other issue than the one that has killed 130,000 Americans and counting

But go on, keep defending his inactions

Lots of right wing hysteria about liberals trying to engineer equality of outcome to correct sexual/racial inequities (in higher ed, for example). I think we all want socioeconomic, gender and racial barriers to opportunities to be addressed, but no significant number of people really believe in equality of outcome right? This is just a straw man argument.
