Not surprised Thiels/Musks paypal/venmo are onboard.

This is just an absurd attempt to derail arguments about fair taxation by waiving a red herring around about people being able to voluntarily increase their own taxes, as if asking for a fair system is the same as utterly destroying your own solvency.

Sounds like someone separated his brain from his body to either sell to medical science, a university, or the army, and instead fucked it up.

Maybe legal, probably not. Its common in the US, and deeply fucked up.

I dont know the article, but looking for work generally helps me when im absolutely fucking done with a job.

Yes, its more work, but it makes all the "huge and terrible" problems of your main job seem smaller, isolated, even stupid. They matter less because you dont have to depend on that job anymore, so you actually do get better mentally.

Then, if the job search is good or the second job is enough, quit that first fucker and be totally done with all the stress.

City has 10 parallel car heavy paths to get from point A to B : normal, good, as it should be.

City has 9 parallel car heavy paths and 1 person/bike/transit path to get from point A to B : A travesty, doom for business, the unraveling of all civilization.

It was her grandma's and it was rent controlled, so the rent was not allowed to go up since the 70s. She was illegally subletting it.

Those 8.5 billion are producing all of that 100%. If you had 4 billion, it would be 45%.

No, i have no freaking idea what lolita is doing there. The show has nothing like that going on.

That's Mordecai from "Regular show."

It's a zany, but very human short form comedy sitcom that's deeply self referential.

The only possible justifications are "to protect victims" and "to protect people from baseless accusations" if there really is no proof of anything.

The first can be done with retractions. The latter is the issue for MAGA, as trump and his boosters have been claiming for years that the files are full of vile, evil shit that is being hidden and that they would expose everyone. They claimed this for half a decade, and were saying the truth was about to come out just months ago. They claimed they put 10,000 FBI agents on the case to verify the files, and gave MAGA influencers a "part 1" dossier to splash around.

Suddenly, a few months later there is nothing to see, even as more and more leaks about Trump being a pedophile hit the news.

Now they are playing games about releasing "credible" reports (i.e nothing with Trump in them or any republicans) and releasing everything but the files.
