#TESLA NEWS: New York City Comptroller Brad Lander Files Letter to #TSLA Shareholders with #SEC: The Board's Failure to Curtail the CEO Jeopardizes Tesla’s Brand, so "we urge you to vote against the reelection of Kimbal Musk and James Murdoch and against the ratification of the #Musk 2018 Pay Package."

James Murdoch is a #climatedenial promoter. He is a billionaire's buddy on a Board that is totally captive to Musk's fantasies. That's no way to make money!

Disappearing ink, fake polls and voter fraud: EU fears as Russian propaganda ads target Euro elections

You wonder why pogroms proliferate in a modern world?

pro-Russian propaganda ads had reached 38m individual accounts in France and Germany between August 2023 and March 2024, with most going undetected. Fewer than 5% of undeclared political ads shown on Facebook in 16 European countries were caught by Meta’s detection system

got a for her MYT article revealing how child labor laws are being flouted in, among other states, Alabama.

In textile factories, meat plants & roofing companies, immigrant children work in clear violation of the law, & few folks seem that concerned, especially at the Attorney General’s office.

Marshall, it seems, is more preoccupied with what’s happening in the Big Apple than who’s working for Fruit of the Loom.

Dr. Ismail Mehr, with the Islamic Medical Association of North America, declaring patients dead from treatable illnesses due to a lack of supplies and the crumbling health care system, said people die daily from routine medical conditions such as "a grandmother with a urinary tract infection, the middle-aged man who dies from his diabetes because he doesn't have access to his medicines," but their deaths are "forgotten because not due to bombings & missiles & drones."

I don't want to see any more TV dramas about cops. That genre is over.

@StillIRise1963

I would recommend spinning off a new genre, where cops are prosecuted and convicted for committing subhuman acts, and suffer hard time with unsympathetic inmates. I think it's got legs.

Same scene occurs with better ending in The Expanse when Miller cock-blocks the blooming romance between Dresden (who feeds humans to the alien "protomolecule" to accelerate its evolution) and the resistance leaders -- James Holden and Fred Johnson -- who are entranced by Dresden's elevator pitch. Miller puts paid to the plan by plugging Dresden with good old fashioned lead.

Perks/danger of a getaway to Portland IR and staying a few blocks away from one of the great bookshops on the world (Powells City of Books). You get to hear an author reading and get a signed cooy (Rowing to Baikal) and also get to stick up on lots of other goodies, used and new. @bookstodon

My own perception of insurance was formed as a plaintiff's lawyer in LA.

Plaintiffs lawyers want big insurance policies so that recoveries can be adequate to satisfy plaintiff's injuries and attorneys fees.

Defense lawyers want insurance policies, in any amount of coverage, so they can bill hourly fees for putting plaintiffs through the wringer.

Insurance carriers justify skinflint settlement policies because it's their duty to pay only legitimate claims.

I need your help #bookstodon. One of the classes I'm taking at the graduate level this semester is Religion & Science Fiction. I read more fantasy, and would like to do my research paper on something that's not obvious (like ST/BS5/Matrix/etc.) & I'd love to use more modern sf rather than the golden age classics.

Anyone have any interesting ideas for my research paper on regarding the intersection of religion and science fiction?
