Camille Paglia said something the other day that triggered a group of whinypants college students at Philadelphia’s University of the Arts. They launched a petition to get the school’s president, David Yager, to silence its most famous professor.
I just want to let that sink in: these SJW twerps actually think they can defeat CAMILLE FREAKING PAGLIA!
From their Change.org petition:
Here is what we demand of UArts:
1) Camille Paglia should be removed from UArts faculty and replaced by a queer person of color. If, due to tenure, it is absolutely illegal to remove her, then the University must at least offer alternate sections of the classes she teaches, instead taught by professors who respect transgender students and survivors of sexual assault.
2) The University of the Arts must cease to provide Camille Paglia additional platforms such as public events and opportunities to sell her books on campus.
3) The University of the Arts must apologize for its embarrassing response to this situation, and specifically President David Yager must apologize for his wildly ignorant and hypocritical letter.
4) The University of the Arts must sit down with a group of transgenders students and survivors of sexual assault to discuss how they can best be supported moving forward. This group must include students of color.
At this point, most university presidents would clutch their pearls and convene a listening session to negotiate the terms of their surrender. That’s not how David Yager rolls. This is how David Yager rolls:
How about that! A college president who knows he’s a college president, and acts like it! Thank you, David Yager. More, please.
I’ll help you by passing out the RAZOR BLADES.

I have a lot of respect for Camille. She is a bad-ass, intelligent, funny and so refreshing - a liberal who can think and disagree with people without resorting to long knives. I love her interviews, feminism left her behind to it’s detriment.

Cyanide is the oxygen binder. Strychnine causes uncontrollable nerve firing, causing convulsions.
I once went to a juicing bar. I asked for a drink that had juiced apples. When the guy handed me the drink and before I paid for it, I asked him if he removed the seeds before putting the apples in the juicer. He said no. I told him to take it back and I should call the police for trying to poison me and other customers. He looked dumbfounded and said he would never do that. I told him apple seeds are okay whole because they do not get digested but if you break open an apple seed, the inside contains arsenic. He continued to throw apple seeds and all into the juicer. If you juice your apples, remove the seeds.
Knowing how stupid these snowflakes are, I'd expect a fair number to jump out of basement windows.
I’ll be curious how the students respond to their demands not being met. They’re not used to being told no.
Fine words. Let’s see what he does when the little twerps get disruptive/violent.
Heard the head of Turning Point on the car radio last week.
He said Trump signed an order cutting Fed funds to schools, not supporting free speech.
He gave a recent example of how it is helping.
(A school in Indiana???)
I’m sure you will :)
“I’m heading out there to aid in crisis counseling.”
Get a swipe for your iPhone. You can make good money off the snowflakes.
How the HELL does something work so FAST!!???
It’s got to reach EVERY blood cell almost instantly!
I do not understand instant death from ingestion.
Gunshot, yes.
Hard to live without a brain.
lol
I’ll create a degree in Photoshop on the way :)
Camille Paglia. The fastest talking woman on the planet,m,kay?
Heh. I “council” telemarketers. If they are Indian I use my Paki accent and tell them their call center is ground zero for one of “our” nukes and that Desi women all want a Paki because we are so much better hung than Indian men. If they are not Indian I act like I feel sorry for them and encourage them to seek help because of the extreme level of suicides amongst telemarketers. I make comments like, Everybody hates you but I don’t. I just feel pity that you are in such a soul sucking job. I mean I can understand why you feel suicidal, but there are better options. You could go postal at work and shoot your co-workers or poison them or whatever.
If you put a plastic bag over your head, you’re dead in a couple of minutes because you use up the oxygen in your blood. Cyanide works like carbon monoxide, irreversibly binding to hemoglobin so it can’t carry oxygen. As to speed.. I’m not an expert on circulation Dynamics, but blood circulates in a matter of seconds or tens of seconds.
Wow. thanks
Ahem, apple seeds would like to argue.
Apple seeds contain about 700 milligrams of cyanide per kilo, so about 100 grams of apple seeds should be enough to dispatch a 70-kg adult human, but that’s an awful lot of apple cores even if you don’t eat the rest of the apple first. In addition, the seeds would have to be pretty finely crushed to let the enzymes get to the amygdalin at all. All in all, you’re safe eating the occasional apple core. I’ve done it for years. Just don’t try eating a bowl of freshly crushed apple pips.
If a seed weighs 0.7 grams, then you’d need to munch your way through 143 seeds. Apples can contain anywhere between 2 and 20 pips, but a typical supermarket apple will contain about 8. So you’d have to eat about 18 apple cores in one sitting!
I always thought she was pretty conservative?
The cyanide I used, sodium IIRC, came in a bright white package with a great big skull and crossbones on it.
No apple seeds in it at all.
