Please note that this is a fake quote. Trump is a racist felon of a president that doesn’t care about his voter base, yes, but spreading misinformation will give Republicans leverage to say that Democrats are lying to sabotage his. Not to mention, spreading misinformation for the ‘right’ side isn’t any better than what they’re doing.

"I hope you understand why I invited you to my office," Matsuzaki said calmly. Kongou just stared at him defiantly.
"No, teach. I don't," he all but spat, his face twisted in annoyance.
"Kongou, I wanted to talk to you about your grades in Japanese. You're seriously lagging behind." Kongou rolled his eyes.
"I'll try harder. Is that all?" Matsuzaki quieted and peered at the student before him. Finally, he nodded, and Kongou stood abruptly and stalked out.
Matsuzaki glanced down at the poem in front of him, Kongou Tsuyoshi written at the bottom. Maybe next time, he'd confront him.
needed to get this idea out of my nervous system
Hi! I found this:

The Lines of Life -- Crowley and Aziraphale are home, recovering from their trauma, and finding ways to accommodate Crowley’s disabilities. But rebuilding their life together brings up past memories, and not all of them are good. Can they use their new coping skills to support each other as they heal?
They bake shortbread and stargaze in this one.
I'll give it another shot tomorrow, but I combed through a couple filters and didn't find anything that quite matched your description. They bake lavender shortbread in this one:

It is explicit, though, so be forewarned.
If you're looking for more fics to read, I stumbled across this filter and literally all the fics are so sweet and nice and awesome.

The car rumbled steadily underneath his feet as Aren outlined the contingency plan he'd made. Luis peered over his shoulder, scoffing.
"What's this supposed to be again, newbie?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Aren smiled nervously.
"If we hide as civilians along Aster Private-"
Something clattered behind them, and Aren froze, turning around. There was a tense moment of silence.
"We've been hijacked," Luis hissed. "Show yourself!"
A gunshot whistled past Aren's head, and he ducked instinctively. Luis was not so lucky.
"Shit," Aren whispered as Luis collapsed in front of him. He was dead before he hit the floor.
Drabbles for characters' birthdays. They’ll all be lumped onto Ao3 at the end of the month.
We read Flowers for Algernon, and this discussion ensued. We now have to write an essay about it, and I am sure I must be missing something, because I can't find any reason to side against increasing intelligence.
To set the stage, we debated whether to increase intelligence in real life. This means that any potential effects of intelligence-enhancing surgery inside Charlie Gordon's universe (i.e., the intelligence wearing off) are not applicable. In this debate, we are referring to intelligence—not knowledge. In this context, intelligence refers to IQ, while knowledge refers to information. This means Elon Musk's Neuralink, while not irrelevant, is not the main focus of this argument.
If an argument is good, I will do my best to admit that.
These are in no particular order.
Starting off strong with this interesting point, those against increasing intelligence argue that increasing intelligence would eliminate neurological differences between people. In other words, it would get rid of stupid people.
The amount of intelligence someone has is not 'diversity.' If everyone had the same IQ, we would not all be the same because we still have our personalities -- and that's only touching on neurological differences. There are plenty of other ways we differ.
Personally, I don't understand this argument. Just because something is of more value to your success doesn't mean everything else doesn't matter.
Imagine you're on your way to class. You'd want a pencil, right?
Well, you don't actually <em>need</em> that pencil. You could just take the lead, and it would still work -- maybe not as well, but it would still work. The wood casing around the lead isn't the most important part of the pencil, so, under this logic, it's unnecessary.
This is a much better point than the last two, but it's still not infallible.
While sophisticated crime, such as bank robberies and pharmaceutical cover-ups, would increase, so would the effectiveness of our methods of battling it. If everyone had increased intelligence, we would still be fighting on an even playing field.
For example, while Isaac Newton was very intelligent, he was also a misanthrope. People can have prejudices and incorrect opinions despite being very intelligent.
This is true -- to a point. While some people would still be caught up in their prejudice, increased intelligence will let more people see through it. It doesn't make much sense to use this as a stand-alone point
See this, y'all? THIS is how you make a good argument. Talk about stuff like this instead of bringing up weird points about grit and diversity, and you'll be golden.
We need to solve a lot of things before we can make intelligence-enhancing technology available -- that's undeniable. However, this is the case with most medical procedures. The wealthier among us can afford expensive treatments to save their children's (or their) lives and give them a boost in life, while those with less money are left sitting in the dust.
It's not great, but it's the unfortunate reality. Adding another medical procedure to the mix wouldn't make much a difference.
I agree, however, that introducing intelligence-enhancing technology while we have such drastic class differences could be dangerous. It would give the rich a large advantage while middle and lower-class citizens would have a much harder time getting into the same universities as them because they have lower IQs.
See? This is a good argument. I will admit that -- this is one of the best points I've heard against it, and it's rarely brought up.
What do you guys think? I'm mostly limited to the evidence provided by my teacher, so I'm curious as to what some points you guys have are.
If I was unclear on anything, please let me know.

Anyway, it's 2:45 and I have school tomorrow, so I should probably go to bed. See y'all tomorrow!
