There are rules about required decorum in court. Even virtual zoom court. Judges have pretty wide latitude and they do not generally have a sense of humor about these things.

I stopped engaging with people who tell me to do the research. When would I lay out facts from academic and other reliable primary sources that I have researched I would be inevitably told that those sources are not reliable because China/Deep State/Whatever the Q nuts are saying.

Ford: We’ll use the Lightning brand on our electric trucks.

I have sunk so many hours into this franchise across the 3 mainline games as well as the Pre-Sequel and I can honestly say I didn’t realize there was even a story that crossed over all these games.

Unfortunately, she is probably being blamed for her husband’s actions, for not keeping a devout enough home, not being a good enough/enticing enough wife, if only she had been more doting on him, he wouldn’t have done this etc etc.

Must we live in a world where everything is either perfect or horrible, and we have to choose a side in some epic battle?

I higlhy doubt it. My guess is that the internal investigation found plenty of problems with his management practices, but that would’ve also made CD Projeckt complicit in his bullying. So instead it’s concluded that everything was copacetic, but Konrad Tomaszkiewicz leaves on his own volition with a nice severance…

He’s not “hoarding” wealth. He created it. He founded what under his leadership became one of the largest software empires in history and a little thing called Windows which runs the vast majority of desktop computers. (Among other things.)

And unlike a lot of very rich people, he created a huge non-profit foundation…

This. Whatever he’s like personally, his foundation - which, Jesus, Jezebel, do some research before you casually dismiss the Gates Foundation - has done an incredible amount to transform living conditions in the developing world.

It may be because I’m super-old, but one of the first things I remember about the Gates Foundation after it formed was all the mosquito netting it provided to countries in Africa and its dedication to family planning. This isn’t just another Bezos, folks, even if you do not like the man.

This is and was a horrible thing and the judgement is a good start on helping this man get his life back but has he or will he actually get any money in his hands? I suspect the restaurant owner will claim bankruptcy or something like slow pay the guy for an eventually smaller amount. The victim needs to get all of…

My lawn mower is way cooler!

Those jerks tried to circle him looking all hard, but his vigorous pumping and spraying all over the place got them off as fast as possible.

It would be interesting to countersue on the basis that naming the school after a traitor to the United States is also a political statement.

On the one hand, I used to use the “OK” symbol...like it has always been used until the last few years in which alt right shitlords decided to co-opt it. I will occasionally feel myself doing it and have to remind myself “Oh, wait, this belongs to incel Nazis now, which is SO SUPER FUCKING COOL AND LOGICAL” and switch…

Actually it does, but no one here is interested in that.

Does his explanation track?  (i.e. Did he flash a hand sign in the two days before indicating a 1 and then a 2?)  If so, then I’m fine with his explanation.

Not in production yet, just hoping Elon Musk comes down off what ever he’s taking before it does:

Let’s hope so.

And still get locked up!
