Imagine that. ;)

Edit: The downvotes are probably from “white knights” who want to bang her.

I was downvoted for stating this somewhere else

You’re not alone; I got two downvotes within a few minutes of posting this – a very Reddit-like phenomenon.

Basically Reddit is a scam in terms of investment.

By the way, I think r/WallStreetBets users should set up an alternate community elsewhere (like here); I wouldn’t put it past management to shut that sub down if users mention anything about torpedoing the IPO.

Most of that includes options that he would have to wait to cash out, which is probably what inspired him to blow things up over the summer.

The most accurate explanation is probably don’t want to.

spider,

From what I understand, a relatively small part it is his actual salary, and most of it is deferred compensation.

spider,

…while claiming to support “freedom”.

spider,

herd stupidity

spider,

No longer running for president but apparently still starved for attention…

You know who I’m referring to, right?

spider,

Trump came up with that one, though, so I’d rather avoid using it.

And DeFascist is more accurate.

spider,

Good point, but now that he’s out of the race, watch 'em kiss and make up.

Ed Pierson, a former senior manager at Boeing’s 737 Factory in Renton, Washington, raised concerns to his supervisors about the dangerously unstable production environment and risks to the safety of airplanes.

The factory was plagued with overworked employees, chronic part shortages, quality issues, and unrelenting schedule pressure to deliver MAX airplanes.

Ed recommended Boeing leadership shutdown production operations before both crashes, but sadly he was ignored.

After the crashes he implored the leaders of the NTSB, FAA, and DOT to conduct a thorough investigation of the factory and to involve international accident investigators, but was ignored again.

He shared his story with the U.S. Congress. In turn, Congress directed the FAA to conduct a proper investigation.

Instead, the FAA focused on helping Boeing recertify the airplane. In response, Ed conducted his own investigation and linked factory conditions to both crashes. He is determined to shine a light on the truth to help avoid future tragedies.

(Edit: Forgot to mention that I broke Pierson’s text wall into paragraphs to make it easier to read.)

How Trump will seek to pit federal judges against each other to avoid trial (www.cnn.com)

A primary aim for Trump’s legal team, according to people familiar with the strategy, is to put the judge in DC overseeing the 2020 federal election obstruction case, Tanya Chutkan, in a position where she can’t start a trial before Election Day

spider,

CNN’s owners are all-in trying to get Trump reelected

…while pretending to do the exact opposite.

(At least CBS’ former CEO was honest about it.)

spider,

if you say the wrong thing

…or use the wrong books

It’s simple supply and demand. Pay your fucking people and they will stay.

Well, that’s part of the equation.

The other part is: Don’t treat them like shit.

An RNC member is trying to stop the party from paying Donald Trump's legal bills (apnews.com)

At least one member of the Republican National Committee is working to slow Donald Trump’s attempted takeover of the organization by pushing to keep the committee neutral until Trump is officially the presidential nominee and avoid picking up his legal bills....

That would be so glorious.

And then we could accuse them of losing money because they’re not being responsible or trying hard enough.

spider,

The American president needs to have a realistic worldview, not stuck in a reality that stopped existing literal generations ago.

Speaking of which, Biden continues to fund Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians because he still views Jews strictly through the prism of the Holocaust.

That was so fucking poetic.

Are you also into prophecies?

spider,

I’m getting this really disturbing mental image of someone using spray tan as lube.

spider, (edited )

Still trying to figure out how it got into mine…

spider,

For what it’s worth, saw an mtf working at a large retailer about a year ago, then another in the pharmacy at a major drug store chain about a week ago; also knew of another who worked at a major home improvement chain in my old hometown (all in the U.S.).

So the short answer is probably.
