Those kids are at MOST in 3rd grade.

Here are the approximate word counts for each book in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling:

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone: ~77,000 words
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: ~85,000 words
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: ~107,000 words
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: ~190,000 words
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: ~257,000 words
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: ~168,000 words
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: ~198,000 words

In total, the series contains around 1,082,000 words across all seven books.

They would have had to read the entire Harry Potter series. They would have read "War and Peace" twice. They would have read about 80 Capt. Underpants books. They would have had to read about 50 Goosebumps books. A book for a 3rd grader typically consists of about 20,000 words, so in 10.5 months (school year) they would have to read almost 5 chapter books a month. Impressive at that age.

Despite their somewhat cuddly appearance, otters have teeth and jaws that are strong enough to crack open ~~shellfish~~ human fucking skulls.

Kamala stole my ideas on the economy. She's a Marxist. She stole my ideas though.

So the debate was rigged to make you look bad, but you did great at the debate? Which is it?

To be fair, when you're an idiot, the concept of time is hard to comprehend.

She could lose 10 million listeners (she won't) and still have 85 million listeners on Spotify alone.

I live near Detroit. They are building an auto factory down the street from me where the Pistons used to play. That's not in Mexico

I'm a guitarist/singer and I'm looking to record some acoustic stuff. I have a condenser mic, but I would need an audio interface. I'm not looking for a fancy setup, just bare bones really. Any recommendations for an open source audio workshop? What's my cheapest quality option for an audio interface?

Thanks!

I keep seeing videos lately of grown men posing as children online and baiting individuals to public spaces and either assaulting them or recording/exposing them for content. While I don't mind the idea of a predator being outed, the idea of grown adults posing as children online seems unsavory to me. Especially if their end goal isn't to protect children, and is to provide content for views.

Obviously, being a child predator is wildly immoral and illegal and their actions are not what's being debated.
