Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

quote:

Where does an alleged war criminal accused of torture and directing mass executions look for work while living in the United States? For Yusuf Abdi Ali, there was an easy answer: Uber and Lyft.

Within a couple of days of applying to be a ride-share driver, Ali said he was approved to shuttle passengers from place to place. He's been doing it for more than 18 months, according to his Uber profile.

When CNN reporters recently caught a ride from Ali, the former Somali military commander was listed on Uber's app as an "Uber Pro Diamond" driver with a 4.89 rating.

This would be a top tier 90s Simpsons gag, we're both in the best and the worst reality.

He wasn't a very good fighter according to his wikipedia page. He got 27 years for the murder for those wondering.

The Crime in Sports podcast did an in depth dive into what a horrible person he is. It's worth a listen if you want to hear a couple comedians poo poo on him while going into detail on what he did.

Dude, half the Cree people I know in Canada have French surnames, their great grandmothers getting boned by some Quebecian doesn't make them not indigenous.

Not just that, I'm pretty sure in some of the residential schools they assigned the kids proper english (or french) names if the school didn't like the name they came in with. I know they did that for first names, but probably last names too.
