"Yeah our work culture is bad. If you have standards, you won't want to work here" ???????????????????

"We check people's socials, and if you're constantly tweeting anti-crunch messaging: 'This should never ever be a thing', we know that and go, 'Look, you're not going to be happy here, so we're not going to go with you'," he tells The Game Business.

In the early 1960s, my dad joined the Army (reluctantly), but scored well on a test and ended up operating rocket guidance computers. He later worked on NASA's mid-ocean "Instrumentation Ships," communicating with Gemini & Apollo missions, sort of "mission control at sea." My dad is very cool.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Here's the thing: Democrats already know who can win. They know which policies are popular with voters and which candidates are vocally in support of those policies. They're going to throw a billion dollars into trying to prevent those candidates from becoming the nominee.

Screenshot of a headline from politico that reads: fears over who can win in 2028 are already surfacing among democrats

Gerald Ford vetoed naming a post office after himself.

(archive document)

Memorandum of Disapproval

I have today vetoed H.R. 11897, a bill which would name the United States Courthouse and Federal Office Building in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the "President Gerald R. Ford Federal Office Building."

Although I appreciate the honor expressed by the Congress in enacting this legislation, I intend to continue the policy of past Administrations that the executive branch not endorse the naming of Federal office buildings. Generally, the executive branch has deferred to the desires of the Congress on such matters.

Although several Federal office buildings have been named for incumbent members of the Congress, I know of none that have been named for a President while still in office. I consider it improper for me as an incumbent President to approve legislation which places my name on a Federal building. This is a precedent I do not wish to establish.

In general, I feel this way: office buildings which house the functions of Government should not be used as monuments to Federal officials, but rather as workshops for the people's business.

In particular, I would hope our Presidents will be remembered for their labors in building better Government rather than for their efforts in constructing public works projects to themselves.

Some companies allow salaried employees the option of "30 hrs/wk for 75% pay." The company accepts that the employee stops work at 30 hrs (that's the whole point). But if you are salaried "40-hr/wk for 100% pay" this acceptance is strangely absent. It shouldn't be.

Reposted for emphasis. The company could have DOUBLED pay and benefits for its employees simply by doing less stock buybacks, and still pocketing billions in profit. Greed. That's the fact every time.

I would pay money for a DVD of all the cut footage from Rogue One. I just want to see all of the lost scenes (and there are a lot). Maybe that's the next prestige nerd product: Buy the fifty hours of unused footage from your favorite movie.

For those calling the government taking a 10% stake in Intel Socialism, you might want to look up the “merging of corporate and state power.”

I warn you this is the start of a long thread about optimism in Star Trek. I enjoy Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, but there's been a tonal shift in the show that worries me. There's not enough acknowledgement that the core of the franchise is optimism about the noble potential of humanity.
