The government should cut out their subsidy for Tesla EVs to the tune of the pay increase. Send a message to greedy CEOs to not steal government subsidies for themselves.
Also send a message to the corrupt majority shareholders who voted yes to an absurd pay package. You can bet they get a private call before any major Tesla announcements to get ahead thanks to those votes.
He’d lose all his performance bonuses from the sales cut and the shareholders would want him gone asap.
Isn’t there something that says rich weddings lead to quick divorces?
No better way to be sure that your partner is frugal and not in it for the money than a cheap wedding. Your interests have to be aligned or it never works.
The supreme court will call it unlawful theft of profits and strike it down. What else could possibly happen in a federalist controlled legal system?
We really need to stop calling the republican party republican. It’s not at all what it once was. It’s the Federalist Society party.
TheBananaKing is offensive. It is a reference to Banana Republics, you know the system where corporations marginalize an entire populace and make them produce their product for profit. You should really change your username. It’s trivial and nobody will care if you change it.
Obviously I do think this is as absurd as asking a company to change it’s name which was named after the founder, but you went there and presented the argument for it. I can at least understand moving away from master/slave in computing especially in future products and revisions but making someone change their business name which is named after the founder’s is ludicrous.
That being said, the only reason why the company changed the name was because it gave them good PR in the form of free advertising- just imagine all the headlines. Since you have no upside to changing yours, I know you won’t do it. Humanity is full of virtue signaling hypocrites who are just out for themselves.
conveniently he will have a work meeting in nearby upscale restaurants from his california home mondays, wednesdays and fridays.
I think I got starbucks once in the past 6 months.
If only individuals could write off expenditures, only the rich would pay taxes.
In highschool I had a gameboy color in my backpack with pokemon tcg in it.
I went to the bathroom and came back. It was no longer in my backpack after that. Thanks sophomore year physics class.
Other than law-enforcement, no one can find the customer details associated with an IP address.
Yeah, what you need is to subpoena the address to find out who the owner is of the internet connection. From there you can probably find out which construction worker lives there and take it to small claims court.
Probably not worth it
Bah don’t be such a hater. The written story so far is so freaking good that even if he never finishes it i’m quite happy to have read it.
It’s been so many years that I can’t imagine picking it back up and continuing to write anyway.
Gotta make sure those who have get even more. That’s how it’s always been and always will be.
Vivecane Catpuf to you too.
So you’re proposing that the US tries to go conquer the world. Are you insane?
I think in most cases they use petty culture bullshit to distract people from more concrete material concerns. They do it quite intentionally, and know what really matters.
That’s what all of it is. Political theatre. Smoke and mirrors. It’s performance art that the crowd goes wild for, while the real changes are discussed behind closed doors and are executed in the senate, the house and the supreme court.
I don’t know many people who are happy with the recent supreme court decisions, everyone seems to be upset with the senate and the house… and all the while the masses clamor for the figurehead in the oval office who rambles constantly and peddles the lies his base wants to hear. He is enforcing loyalty by establishing the precedent that you’re either with us or the enemy. He politically assassinates the people in his own party for ‘disloyalty’ because he has no following outside of it to do so. He pushes policies and even openly admits he wants to be a dictator. He claims that he wants to literally attack the political opponents on all sides should he regain power and exonerate his little militia that tried to overthrow the democratic process of the last presidential election.
It’s just wild. How people can be so blind to how it all works is simply beyond me. How this comes down to a popularity contest and a vote of being a racist bigot vs being open to compromise and accept people as they are is beyond me. I’ve never had less faith in the human race than I do today.
It’s the law that the businesses get to screw you.
Oh yeah and every infant is assigned an assault weapon at birth.
Well, it’s gonna crash… some day. That’s how the stock market works.
Cult leaders make all kinds of predictions about some future doomsday event.
It’s ok sir, you can be bisectional.
Fuck yo couch! Sir.
I think it’s been proven time and time again that return to office mandates are a way to avoid severance packages. People end up leaving voluntarily. In the age of tens of thousands of layoffs at all the big tech companies this has to have saved them thousands of salaries worth of compensation packages.
They don’t care about the “quality” of workers because if someone is truly important they get exceptions, everyone else is imminently replaceable.
So it sounds like nobody in this thread looked at the actual article.
This isn’t chic-fil-a. It’s the homophobic bigoted billionaire asshole who has turned a town south of atlanta georgia to a 2.7 billion dollar movie making industry by building a movie making compound. He’s trying to usurp hollywood. His studios have been the filming location for many major blockbuster movies in the past several years.
The article even mentions that the guy has sold 200 homes to the tune of 110 million dollars right by the studios so obviously he’s diversifying beyond chicken.
If there’s a market for christian shit i’m sure he’ll capture it, but i’m sure they will focus on what sells. Maybe they will try to be the epic games of streaming services where they undercut the competition by hiring cheaper labor and taking a smaller cut from the people who pay to use the studios the guy owns.
Unlike steam, nobody loves netflix, disney, hbo or any of the awful streaming services there are now. Even crunchyroll which is a bargain has a fucking awful app and streaming quality issues. Since you don’t “own” the movies on the platform you rent access to there’s no lock-in or cult following like there is with steam. Because of all this… people will go to whoever provides the best service.
