Elon Musk has entered the chat...

I assume she keeps a lot of untraceable funds around for the same reason as former senator Menendez....

What even is a write off? [Sorry, I might be out of sequence with this one.]

This is shameful: his aunt created the Special Olympics and his cousin created Best Buddies. He could have asked around the table at holidays and become a better person.

You can be against the burdens for those with #ProfoundAutism without hating the neurodiverse. He could, you know, help.

I don't know. These big companies, it's all a tax write-off.

(The complaint is well-done.)

47 is truly an amazing president. In 1 swift move, he was able to persuade me, a @cornelllaw.bsky.social grad and @usarmy.bsky.social veteran, to root for @harvard.edu.

I hope 47's face turns red, er crimson, when he hears about this.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

But everyone knows Ron Vera. He was the lead latex salesman at Vandelay Industries for a number of years earlier in his career. That's why he knows so much about tariffs.

RFK saying he wants "new guidance" from the CDC seems to me like it would meet summary judgment standard for "arbitrary and capricious" administrative action.They want to give every kid cavities, because dying from measles isn't enough.

If you voted for Trump, consider reading a neutral viewpoint of the economic effects of his policies. I'd say the Economist is reliably conservative in the "small c" sense of the word. They know that businesses need stability to invest.

We knew that you don't title β€œHouthi PC Small Group” if it was the first time.

This is an egregious pattern that makes it clear:

These people obviously cannot keep our servicemembersβ€”or any of usβ€”safe.

It's almost like we should have a constitutional amendment, or two, to ensure that there's some amount of necessary process to create an opportunity to ensure that our government protects the rights it was created to protect by giving people notice and an opportunity to be heard.

The Trump administration called it an β€œadministrative error.” But that error led to a nightmare for Maryland Resident Abrego Garcia.

@booker.senate.gov is my senator, and I appreciate him because of how he thinks about how he can serve his constituents instead of how he can serve himself.

He did this as mayor of Newark, and he's doing it now.

Why does IRS Form 1023, Part IV, qn 7 not recognize that all organizations will create copyrighted materials in the ordinary course of business. It should be limited to *registered copyrights* to match the intent of the question without requiring sensible people to disregard the language as written.

Telling me you've changed your T&C might be the minimal thing your lawyers tell you to do, but it's a good way to waste my attention. At least tell me what changed.

Ex. J Crew emailed to say they're changing the loyalty program and linked to new T&Cs. Loyalty program changes? Not a single clue….

I mean it’s pretty obvious at this point. We need to figure out a way to get Kendrick Lamar pissed at Elon Musk.

Crappy company tells, # 7:

When your company is no good, slap on a social mission.

"Our socks are so good that for every pair you buy, we donate a pair to a kid who doesn't even have food."

Not every company with a social mission is crappy, but you can spot these slap-ons a mile away.

Neo-Nazis with 1,500 Ammo Rounds Were Heading to a Pro-Gun Rally, Until the FBI Intervened The three armed men were heading for a massive pro-gun rally in Virginia.

This is old, from 2020, but this story (https://www.gq.com/story/white-supremacists-fbi-virginia?utm_source=nextdraft&utm_medium=email) is about right-wing militants who named themselves "the Base."

If you've got a good memory, you'll remember immediately that in Arabic, that's "Al-Qaeda." https://

And then I wondered how many of those folks voted to eliminate the department of education or to eliminate state taxes that would go to schools.... You can have your own beliefs, but you can't have your own facts.

I had a great time reading a LinkedIn post about China eating everyone's lunch on STEM, and then reading a slew of comments about not having enough math and science in elementary schools.

I was thinking there should be a journal like Medical Hypotheses (a real, if unremarkable journal) for crazy plane crash ideas.

And then I realized that there is one: the Internet.

How much of $MSFT does Bill Gates still own? Maybe 1.3% (www.techopedia.com/largest-micr...) Ballmer, maybe 4%.

Should people not invest in MSFT because 5% of the cap table is these deadweights?
