IP attorney here to remind all y'all 1) attorneys who specialize in copyright law exist & 2) so do license agreements.
The fact that these tech folk ignored us & just took what they wanted means they're fine with a 'f*cking around' phase but are suddenly whiny about 'finding out'
@lcshorten
My attorney friends keep reminding me that we have an ethical duty & a legal duty to forward along all offers to clients (including unserious & insulting 1s). I wonder why agents & managers aren't held to the same standards.
Looks like representation agreements need rewriting.

How long ago was it that we heard that Sharon Stone missed qualifying for her health insurance in one year by just $36 dollars. Or more recently Ke Huy Quan made a multi Oscar winning picture but couldn't make the health insurance threshold?

Look I'm GenX & I'll do what I have to but just for once before I d*e I'd like to vote for a POTUS candidate who isn't the 'least worst' option, okay?
The House of Representatives released its budget proposal yesterday for the 2024 fiscal year. We are distressed to learn that the House would slash the NLRB’s budget by a full 33% — an existential blow to the agency’s ability to enforce federal labor law in the workplace.

I call this the Universal Theory of Personal Awfulness (expect they treat all people badly & have zero respect for or understanding of any institutions, rules or laws)

Why do they try to sell it as a choice / volitional thing by using the word 'lifestyle'?
I'm pretty sure if people had options besides 'paycheck to paycheck' they'd take those instead

I don't remember these years (my childhood the 1970s-1980s) with nostalgia unless I'm remembering women standing up to men's assery just like this.
In 2000, Elon Musk tried to rebrand PayPal as , but was forced out by the board and replaced as CEO by Peter Thiel.
Now he’s doing the same to Twitter, but is surrounded by sycophants who can’t tell him it’s a bad idea.

They want to impress you with their body-building but what I see is 'geez, guys, your suits are too tight, what was your tailor thinking?'
I am uncomfortable looking at them especially when the pinstripes are being pulled to & fro.
Imagine having your company deduct $30 for meals per week whether or not you ate there...
Not to mention violent fights & working during dangerous weather events.
NEW: Waffle House’s viral brawls are a key part of its business model.
The chain’s violent reputation isn’t just getting views — it may actually be selling more waffles.
And it’s putting workers lives at risk.

If the past is any indicator he will freeze your funds indefinitely & several states attorneys general will have to sue him to get him to follow banking laws.
My guess is this time everyone is forced into some fake digital money from which they can never cash out. Whee.

Tiny bit high for a burger & fries (airports have captive audiences) but that leaves at least $60 unaccounted for. So yeah, alcohol

A lot of people in pre Katrina storms & Katrina itself didn't evacuate because they were legitimately concerned about the fates of their pets & livestock.

@JortsTheCat
The pets should be indoors. The ferals & barn & working kitties should be spayed & neutered, have good food & water, medical care when they need it & a place where they can duck in out of the rain & cold. And truly wild cats (big cats like cougars) need to stay in the wild

Barn cats are also being infected. The cats get very sick. If a dairy has barn cats that start getting sick they should be concerned.
Don’t handle sick cats, birds, etc. Don’t feed potentially infected raw milk to any animals. Not to cats, not to your uncle who loves raw milk.
