You're overlooking reproductive rights which should be a huge deal this election and imo gives Harris a bump ya'll aren't considering.
He served the sentence.
For the inevitable report the mods will get: this is directly quoting Elon Musk accusing a volunteer trying to save lives of paedophilia just for disagreeing with him.
The paper doesn't even prove that they are healthier due to a greater sense of personal responsibility. It only theorizes this sense of personal responsibility is a possible cause. As others have pointed out the study results could be explained simply by picking conservatives that are upperclass and have more time/energy/money to spend on being healthy.
First, the bump to 66% only happens after 250k that year so $25k would not trigger the extra 16% eligibility. So standard 50% CG only would be applied. $12.5k taxed at your rate means the min rate which may be something like 20% (this number is a wild guess) so say $2500 paid to the gov. Not as bad as it sounds.
Streisand effect too: hadn't heard of this until now. Git downloads immediately get flagged as Trojans tho
It's not a dumb law. Musk's quote conveniently side-steps the truth. The way it was: Search/social media website provided pointless links to the news source while stealing the news and publishing it itself and earning all the ad revenue. Original news source: starved.
The way the law should have worked (and will as soon as Meta and X's greed corrects itself): Search/social media websites provide link to news provider and gains ad revenue as normal. News provider actually gets visits to read their news and also earns ad revenue.
If people can’t be arsed enough to even get their post format correct (when it is clearly described in the post rules), they don’t deserve the free promotion.
The whole conversation is a facepalm. This should have been 3 lines:
"What's the last song you saved?"
'I am not comfortable sharing that information with you'
"Okay, if you're aren't willing to let me get to know your basic interests clearly this isn't the kind of relationship I'm looking for. Good luck and have a nice day" [ends transmission]
Moderators remaining are already showing signs of exasperation. I was mass wiping all my account comments and received a week suspension for 'inciting hate' by an admin for a comment that moderators ignored (it was a comment in a post about an article quoting Putin "claiming the West wanted Russians to all kill each other"). The comment was 10 days old, but apparently editing to replace the original statement with "deleting - because Spez" triggered the admins.
Don't make snap judgements about rulings. Especially just on article titles. In this particular case the defendant had a history of using 👍to accept a contract. Had done it NP a dozen times before. He was trying to use a technicality to weasel out of breaching a contract when he couldn't fulfill it.
Harris' main job as VP is to STFU and stay in the background unless needed, and yet...
A look at the conversations Vice President Harris has been having on abortion (way back in '22)
"The first woman elected vice-president, Ms Harris has made stops in key swing states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia and Arizona in recent months as she tries to rally voters on the abortion issue. " (a couple months ago)
