re: Anyone here own a Scottish Terrier?
Posted by AllbyMyRelf on 4/17/26 at 7:14 pm to CBandits82
I love these dogs. Some characteristics, neither good nor bad:
- wire hair coat, not soft like schnauzer
- deeper bark than other small breeds
- not known as a people pleaser; independent, somewhat aloof with non family
Some cons to consider:
- will need grooming (stripping rather than trimming) or the hair won’t look right and will get gross
- suffers from skin allergies. Probably among the worst of dog breeds, so you might end up spending $$$ on cytopoint injections and medicated shampoo
- really large teeth. As mentioned above, they are somewhat aloof/ grumpy, so a bite is not out of the question
- like other terriers, they bark a lot

re: The Cost of Trumpism on the Religious Right
Posted by AllbyMyRelf on 4/17/26 at 12:44 pm to HeadLightBanDit
While many of Trump’s attributes as you describe are despicable, many conservatives voted for him because of policies he promised to promote, not because they believed him to be a great Christian.
When given a choice between a vulgar man who says he will appoint justices to e.g., overturn Roe v Wade and a woman who wanted to codify abortion rights, it’s very reasonable and rational for a conservative Christian to choose the candidate whom they believe will result in less child murder.
Abortion isn’t the only issue that this line of argumentation can be made, but it is probably the main one.
Do I believe that Trump bears the fruit of a born again Christian? No, I don’t. But leaders and laws are meant to promote good and restrain evil. Even as vulgar as Trump is, he was way better than the democratic candidate.
Right wing Christians can peaceably live with their decision to vote for Trump.

I have no clue how Emory keeps getting rated so highly in these things. I’ve never met an Emory grad that I’ve been impressed with.

Mississippi College (Partnership with Mississippi State)

But Mississippi State does not have any control or affiliation with the law school outside of this program that I’ve seen. It’s separate from Mississippi State.
