And when I find the six fingered man, I will say to him: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

Whine, whine, whine. It's not like the US is the only people with a space program. Just go to fucking Russia already, you piece of shit.

The affidavit does not mention the full list of influencers, but is still a terrifying indicator of how deep the Russian plot to interfere in U.S. politics really goes.

Well, why not? Name and shame all of them. Normal political ads are required to tell you who paid for them (even if they only do it in the fine print). There's no reason not to hold these schmucks to the same standard just because it's TikTok vids or whatever instead of magazine or TV ads.

Investing in actual education infrastructure won't get VC techbros their yachts, though.

Clearly, this woman is Hamas. /s

More seriously though, Hamas not mistreating her beyond the initial act of kidnapping makes sense. The entire purpose of taking hostages is to use the threat of harm as leverage. So there's incentive to keep them in relatively good condition, because as soon as anything happens to them that leverage is lost. Of course, people don't always remember that, and the whole thing relies on all parties involved at least pretending to act in good faith.

Are you telling me that Elon Musk might be, perhaps, quiet quitting? The horror.

Seriously, fuck that guy.

If a full fifth of your workforce needs to be sacked, it's clearly a management issue, so let's start at the top.

Man is also a member of the party responsible for the dysfunction, don't forget that.

Once again, GOP proving that they never operate in good faith.

So? If you let fear of fascist reprisal stop you from upholding the rule of law, then they've won.

What a fucking clown. Shareholders should be holding him personally liable for tanking the company.

Giberson’s mother said that for her son, the 2020 election was like watching his favorite baseball team on a World Series run.

Both of them are fucking morons.

So, obviously, if you go to a brick-n-mortar store and buy something there, it counts as a sale for the store, with stores that don't get enough sales often closing. But if I order something online from, say, Best Buy and pick it up in store, how is that tracked? Does it count as a sale for the store, even though I didn't actually buy it there? If not, do companies use a separate metric (ie this store doesn't get as many sales, but people still come in to pick up stuff, so we'll keep it open)?
