Going off the latest news, sounds more like "BC fractured" to me.

Classic "our model doesn't work anymore for some reason". How about instead of pay we try to "modernize" it with [insert buzzword]?

Yes. But other than oil & banking executives, who would do illegal stuff in a heartbeat if they could make money and get away with it, and crazies like Musk and the MyPillow guy, how many business-minded people would want someone convicted business fraud to lead a good economic environment for business?

I know somebody has to come out to play devil's advocate at every turn. Yes the sentence could be a nothingburger. Yes he will appeal no matter what.

At the very least, I can now call him convicted felon Trump. Justice has prevailed at least in this part.

The full jury instructions are up verbatim on the New York Courts website for the People v Donald J. Trump (Criminal) case.

If you are one of the people believing stupid rightwing misinformation over reading the actual document, I don’t know what to tell you.

I'll be counting on you as a Canadian :)

It's easy to fall into a defeatist attitude with how fucked up everything is, but change starts with a belief that things can be changed.

In terms of which progressive candidates are running to beat incumbents that varies from state to state.

This petition is part of the Stopkillinggames.com campaign led by Scott Ross (Accursed Farms), to end in Australia the practice of software licensors to render purchased software completely unusable at arbitrary points in time.

This petition closes relatively soon so please get the word out to your fellow mates.

Thank you!

In 1974, Ivan Illich wrote that the typical American male spent 25% of his waking life either driving a car or working for the income required to pay for one. 50 years later, is this true? And, which cities consume the most -- and least -- of our time with driving?
