No one is making you do anything. All causes of action in lawsuits are “allegations,” putting it in all caps doesn’t change that or make what you’re arguing here right. They are going to court to ask each side to produce things they already know exists, this is a standard part of a lawsuit. It’s not as if Beyonce was…

She doesn’t own the copyright, she owns the trademark to a name slightly different to the one they are trying to trademark. This lady doesn’t own the trademark for “Blue Ivy Carter,” just to “Blue Ivy.”

This isn’t how discovery works. You wouldn’t ask for something so specific if it did not exist. The Carters are asking for the powerpoint presentation because they know it exists, just like Morales is asking for personal communications about the name, because she knows they exist.

She has “Blue Ivy” trademarked, not “Blue Ivy Carter,” which is what the Carters are trying to trademark. No one is asking her to relinquish anything, they applied to trademark the full name, and she opposed. They applied again, and she opposed again with the caveat that she’d drop her opposition for money and…

“I’m 41. My bag of fucks to give is empty.”

As someone else mentioned - it’s pre-tax income.
Say you are in the 22% tax bracket, if you contribute the max amount, $2700, your tax benefit is $594, meaning if you had just taken that in your normal paychecks your annual tax bill would be $594 higher because of the additional income.
Most people are able to…

White of course he was taken alive. He’s got the complexion for the protection.

That jumped out at me too.

“Bloody foreigners, coming to our country, taking our jobs, imposing their way of life on us. I won’t stand for it!”

DJT has to push for the wall, or his supporters (who, while I’ve actually only met a couple of, seem to represent his larger base) will turn on him.

“In response to the outrage at her comments, Pirro invited Omar to appear on her show.”

“local police [have handed] driver information over to ICE informally, violating local law and ICE policies,” the ACLU-NC wrote.

THIS.

I was born in the late 70's and I was a huge MJ fan as a kid in the 80's, but for so many people to now be shocked by the obvious fact that he’s a pedophile is just ridiculous.

People always forget both things can be true. Michael was a pedophile and La Toya was exploiting that for her own benefit. It’s not an either or situation.

Honestly, I think this is one of the best and most important articles published on this site in a while. It's hard to let go when you feel obligated to play... but they're games. They should be fun. If they aren't fun, don't play. Our time is more valuable than that. Go play an older game that's still a lot of fun or…

I literally just wrote this article to say “Hey, you can take a break from that game that is frustrating you or making you feel bad.”

One thing you didn’t address is videogames and depression. As someone who has battled depression my entire life, I often can’t determine if my loss of interest is temporary from my depression, or if I simply don’t enjoy the game. This is especially problematic when a game is a massive critical and financial success.

I’m happy to hear I helped! Thanks for reading!!
