4x Pitt grad and currently a PhD student at Pitt. Anti-trump, proud Dem.

Larry Fitz in a writing class his freshman year. Great guy. Chevy Troutman in a Rob Ruck US history course. Showed up to every class and always chatted with me (found out half of the fb team was in the class on the day on the final after not seeing them all semester).

A friend is upset over the Ronald Ramon coaching hire because, and I quote "He fucked up my group project in Intro to Shakespeare my freshman year" What Pitt athlete encounters did yinz have in undergrad?

Maz was my great grandmother‘s favorite player. In the summers we would go to three rivers for the games. They never made Maz jerseys to sell, so I had a custom shirt with his photo on the front and name/number on the back. She wore it to every game and it was her fave. She's buried in that shirt.

Okay troublemakers, punks, antifa supervillains, and anyone who just enjoys being a petty little shitbird while they fuck up the algorithm of a massive media corp. Here's your assignment for the weekend. Get on it and spread the word.

Get in. We're messing up Melania's Amazon search results.
This weekend, Amazon is premiering it's $40 million Melania Trump documentary. It already seems to be a flop.
But we're going to take it one step further by messing up Melania's Amazon search results. Specifically, we're going to amplify the paranormal erotic thriller, Melania: Devourer of Men so it ranks higher than her movie.
The book is perfect: it's absurd, the cover is ridiculous, and it's free, so we're not giving Amazon any money.
We need people to:
1. "buy" the book (it's free)
2. Share this post and get other people to buy the book.
That's it. Then we can celebrate as an erotic novel about a bat monster Melania Trump becomes a higher and higher search result on Amazon.

if i was running a political party and every time my opponents held power they started illegal wars for oil and crashed the economy i would simply say that repeatedly
