  • Musk and Trump both used the Government to fund, and back, their ventures— until they finally “got it right.” They built their fortunes on the backs of others, in the safe space called the USA. Now they want to break that system for anyone else, just so they can squeeze more millions out of us.

    The justification, you twat, is that it obviously worked for you.

  • Was probably put on “supervisory probation” which is for all new supervisors. I.e., its not just an increase in pay due to increased skills/duties.

    I know someone in the same boat and I was wondering if they would get caught in all this stupidity as well.

  • Let’s assume, on average, every Government worker spent only 10 minutes reviewing, talking about, determining the legitimacy of, and figuring out the correct course of action for this email. Musk’s stupidity cost taxpayers 333,333 hours in wasted time.

    That’s only for 10 minutes.

  • You cannot replace “may” with “will” or “shall” in that sentence and be correct 100% of the time.

    Further, your admitted problem is you are trying to assess past actions to invalidate a forward looking statement, and it makes you wrong. The sentence is correct (and correctly parsed) as “crimes [which have not been adjudicated] may go unpunished.”

    Note the tense of the word “may” is future, not past. Which is why you are wrong.

  • Years ago I was in Germany and another group of foreigners showed up at our table. This included a Brit and a Frenchman. We were all having a good time, drinking, telling stories, etc., until I made the comment I thought the British and French did not get along. Killed the entire vibe and the evening was done at that point. Leave it to an American..

  • I realize people have difficulty parsing language sometimes, but she did not say “may signal” she said “signals”. She said he is doing exactly what you both are saying he is doing. Basically: You appear to be in violent agreement with her.

    The “may” only comes in that if you commit acts of treason, etc. on behalf of dear leader, you may or may not show up on his radar.

  • Not everyone experiences an immediate benefit (e.g. feelings of joy) from empathy. I’ve particularly noticed this trait in right-leaning voters. Here is an example.. and I would bet a very large sum of money this person is a trump voter.

    A society in which individuals actively help one another is inherently self-serving since mutual cooperation leads to a higher quality of life for all, including the individual providing assistance. When people contribute to the well-being of others, whether through acts of kindness, social programs, or community efforts, they create an environment where support is readily available when they themselves need it. This reciprocal benefit means helping others is not purely altruistic at a macro level.

    Cooperation fosters a culture of goodwill and shared responsibility, which ultimately benefits each person within the system. When people see generosity and support as the norm, they are more likely to receive help when they require it, creating a feedback loop of mutual benefit. Ironically, this is the foundation of Christianity.

    Further, businesses thrive when workers and consumers are well-supported, crime rates drop in communities with strong social networks, and innovation flourishes when people collaborate rather than compete destructively. Even seemingly selfless acts, like donating to charity or mentoring others, can be viewed as investments in a society that, in turn, provides security, opportunity, and prosperity for all. What may appear— superficially— as altruism is, in reality, a form of enlightened self-interest that ensures the stability and success of individuals by strengthening the collective. The standard transitive property applies: by improving the lives of others, individuals indirectly improve their own circumstances.

  • Right.. so start a new organization with those members. Ukraine isn’t joining NATO with Trump holding veto powers. Anyone who can’t see this is myopic.

    Why would the US leave when the russian asset can do more damage from within?

  • You need three more bullets.

    “I dealt with you asking for validation of the newest employees, that I had to beg to work K here in the first place”

    “I managed through the fallout of your fork in the road”

    “I began assessing the damage of you firing my team without understanding what they do”

    What else?
