Yeah, he doesn’t strike me as gay, either. Perhaps aromantic or asexual, or as you said, just someone so focused on work they don’t do anything else. He strikes me as that kind of hyper-focused weirdo. Probably best he doesn’t inflict himself on another person in a relationship, as these types tend to be horrible…

And as a Democrat, I’d accept that as a person. His problem is his party of choice is a bunch of Christofascist hypocrites. 

That’s exactly what I was thinking.

Taking credit for the work of others is the bread and butter of most billionaires. 

Do you have any idea how long that will take?

Aren’t most of his kids from surrogates?

I’m not 100% sure how it works in the US but certainly where I am, fertility clinics are very, very rigid (appropriately so) about consent being in place for gametes to be used.

He likes all types of music, though. He’s always been a bit of an omniglot toward all aspects of pop culture. I remember him waxing poetic about Amy Winehouse in one of his “Pop of King” articles for Entertainment Weekly back in the day.

Or in Caine’s case, a house to buy!

Speaking of quick, notice how many of these were years down the line after audiences had moved on (even if the originals had been well-received).

Funny I thought warmth as well as the thing Lee would be missing. 

“Warm” was the adjective that came to mind for me also, in imagining the difference between McKellen’s Gandalf and what Lee’s Gandalf might have been.

We sort of peg Robert Downey Jr as the original thespian-level actor taking a massive pop-culture franchise role, but McKellen as Gandalf (and the IP of LoTR, plus the 3-in-1 filming) predates all of it.

If it’s on Ring cam, she was screwing the guy on the front lawn.

Criminal courts issue protection orders that protect the safety of the victim with the threat of arrest behind them. You don’t need a university to do that if the crime is reported to police and the police act on that report. I am not saying that criminal protection orders work all the time but they have more teeth…

But colleges and universities don't even do that. They try to avoid the issue and hope they don't get sued. And they do take their chances with doing nothing. 

Tesla Shanghai has reportedly sued a Chinese firm over tech secret infringement

Yeah, that’s the payload.  ;-)

Mostly doesn’t do it for Falcon launches? They abandoned second stage reuse entirely. It was a goal in the early days, but they aren’t even considering it now. (I do not count fairing reuse as second stage reuse.) The energetics are too difficult — you lose too much upmass to make it worthwhile.

They are giving SAG-AFTRA everything they ask for, and will also be one of the first people to have new shows on the schedule. The longer their competitors take to give in to the union, the more they get to be the only ones with new shows and stars doing press tours/late night circuits.
