I'll have you know my hairline is heroically holding its ground

Dere's gonna be a million ICEs at da Superbowl.

I mean, c'mon, you don't have em shave the Bill Swerski staches before you ship them out?

...much

I feel like that's ambitious, maybe we start with some muzzle discipline

...this is like the comedy equivalent of the baseball mercy rule.

Where do you even begin.

Very, very much so.

Rules on authentication on video evidence are gonna need an overhaul. The provenance of the video in question is going to need to be clearly and decidedly determined and demonstrable for shit to be admissible, or its gonna be anarchy.

Idk what this is even about but I probably agree with it

Not really defeating my assertion from a year ago that a CEO of a social media site shouldn't be on it.

Yeah that's about my reaction.

It's the neuron, singular, that gave me a much needed laugh today.

He used to be a brilliant stand up comic.

Anymore, though, its long form monologing. Not for me, at all. Not amusing, not particularly entertaining.

He hasnt told a joke in like 3 specials.

It's bizarre performance art at this point. Like Billy Crystal's one man show without a tenth of the cleverness.

Also, if you're more or less financially secure (by your own definition), consider a recurring donation to organizations the promote access to community, resources, and justice for folks whom confront even greater darkness in these dark times.

Donating money to Trans lifeline is a better use of my dollars than purchasing another mountain of Final Fantasy boosters.

Though that next mountain will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.

Games and social activities like Magic are refuges for many of these communities who need our help and our solidarity, and I'm proud to stand with one of my favorite clients to make a contribution to Trans Lifeline. This is a great cause. Join me.

Also, holy *shit* do we have an antisemitism problem. Good lord.

What happened in Manchester is deeply tragic.

Minding their own business on a holiday and targeted while they congregated.

Ugh.

Yes.

The ICC has no authority to strip it.

He knows, I'd guess. He's pandering.

Very confident its dishonest, not incompetent.

Damn near spit my tea lol

I'm not taking a 100 billion dollar case with 100x those victory odds lol

The size of the pocket at the end is *a* relevant concern for evaluating a contingent claim.

Behind like 11 other concerns.

Granted, its costs.

But trial costs are expensive.

Defendant can make an offer of judgment before trial. If plaintiff rejects that offer and fails to win more than that offer, the plaintiff is responsible for all costs after the offer was made.

Most people don't know it goes beyond "not being a signatory", it's literally forbidden.

Great point, one many dont understand either.

Conceptually? Talk to a lawyer in that field about the case and lay out everything. They'll run the numbers and most will talk then through with you.

If this is a "I've already done that, I cant get anybody to say its worth it, how can I convince them", you're not going to have a ton of success.
