The division algorithm also - not an algorithm, no division to be seen anywhere in the statement.
Gonna be weird for me and my wife to get a divorce every 2 years right before the election deadlines, but you gotta do what you gotta do!
Orban's inability to prevent last year's Pride protests—attended by 300k despite being banned—was a turning point in his authoritarian grip of the country.
Queer people are always leading the fight against authoritarianism, as we are often its first targets. Never cower to fear.
My stress dreams are now either: a. Day one of the semester and I'm scheduled to teach a class I have no expertise in, or b. Grades are due for a class I forgot about all semester.
