I agree, this is mostly performative drivel. Pat your dog for me and absorb the symmetry of a leaf.

Nah you right, giving the bribe money to my kid or spouse is still going to corrupt my neutrality.
I guess they’re mainly pointing out that he’s straying from his agreement, not that the agreement was well crafted to prevent corruption.

Trump says Canada 'wants the benefits' of being a U.S. state 'without being one' as trade dispute deepens
California secession is on the ballot every few years. I would be happy to separate but we probably need to take Nevada with us for water, unless Canada is willing to pipe us some.

Former Abercrombie CEO mentally fit for sex-trafficking trial, judge says
The same story every time. Can we please do some snowball investigations? Hollywood folks along with the info. from the Epstein list have confirmed the rich* folks in NYC were blatantly trafficking humans left and right at this time. It’s clear it was rampant, accepted, and known in the community.
Prosecutors say the three used the promise of modeling jobs to lure men to drug-fueled sex parties in New York City, the Hamptons and other locations. The criminal case echoes sexual misconduct accusations made in a civil case and in the media in recent years.

I kind of assumed most books were already being digitized. As a student I worked on a project digitizing old newspapers and entering basic metadata.

Ethics
Partner taught an introductory ethics class to mostly business majors and it’s upsetting how difficult it was to get them past this mindset.

It occurred to me that I misspelled this while I was offline :D A dessert capital would have great trading opportunities, so my sentence is simply untrue as is.
