It's the Google Images Search button, since that was a quick screenshot from my phone.

And yet, if they ever did release it, you can bet all three companies would C&D it.

Also "give my employees paid time at home while business is slow" sounds exactly like the kind of magnanimity that Elon lacks.

I think the answer is over there somewhere.

The workers, who are paid hourly, were told they could either take paid time off or come in for cleaning and training but would not be working on the production line.

That wording is ambiguous, but given the alternative is "come in and do cleaning" my guess is "take paid time off" means workers have to burn their own vacation time if they don't want to lose money. Otherwise, who in their right mind would volunteer to work if the company is offering paid furlough?

I think twenty-four is how many are in a case?

Yeah, we should also add reckless speeder, visible alcoholic, election-denying liar, and Trump supporter too.

Oh, and FYI- those are negative qualities.

And they also decided "do no work on the Sabbath" also meant "don't push the buttons on the microwave."

Or that if you circle your city with a wire, that counts as your city limits for purposes of traveling on the Sabbath.

Point is, rabbinical law has always been about finding the loopholes because they consider it a mark of godliness.

Cheeseburgers for sure.

Aziraphale and Crowley looking at Jesus during the crucifixion.

Crowley: What was it he said that got everyone so upset?

Aziraphale: “Be kind to each other.”

Crowley: Oh, yeah. That'll do it.

Here's the problem.

Strip Trump and MAGA from the GOP, and what are you left with?

The same shit-ass party that brought us Trump, only less emboldened.

They still want tax cuts for billionaires, no universal health care, no workers rights, no mention about climate change, no rights for LGBTQ people, no women's rights, no non-white people in America.

Etc.

The only difference between "the party of Reagan" and MAGA is that under Reagan the GOP was much quieter about being assholes.

You know how the US and the USSR were allied against Germany, but the second WWII was over they started pointing their guns at each other? That's where I feel like we're at now with "center-right" Republicans like Walsh. Sure, I'll take the help of anyone who recognizes that Trump is a threat to democracy and the ideals of the US, but the second that's dealt with there's gonna be problems.

That was my intended joke. Guess it wasn't as obvious as I thought it was. 😕

Trump was directly responsible, though.

I believe this now qualifies him to be a Senator from Florida?

Alternatively, can we make them realize their ideas are bad by making only them experience the consequences of them?

Hey, this is kinda like 2009 when the GOP fought for months to delay Al Franken being seated in the Senate to keep the Dems from having the supermajority Americans voted for. And the whole reason they did so was because Mitch knew that Ted Kennedy was dying so they were trying to run out the clock.

Full "self" driving that only uses cameras and nothing else such as radar/lidar.

It's a chip shop, not a school.

it chips away at the foundations of historical accuracy.

I disagree. The South was also the United States. To argue otherwise is to agree that their declarations of secession were legally valid and rather than being states in revolt needing pacification, the South was a sovereign nation which the Union engaged in a war of subjugation.

Calling them "the Confederacy" and "the Union" continually reinforces that narrative. Irrespective of what they called themselves then (or still call themselves now) we should reframe 1861-1865 as the United States' federal government battling state governments in open rebellion.
