Videos show Chicago police fired nearly 100 shots over 41 seconds during fatal traffic stop

He fired at a group of dudes in civilian clothes driving regular vehicles telling him they were cops. Guess what more than tripled from 2019 to 2021 and continues? Car jackings and armed car jackings.
They allege this was for a seatbelt. Weapons drawn for a simple traffic stop?
Plainclothes officers, especially, should not be approaching people with a weapon drawn.

I feel like these games don't reflect the number of people being hired for them. I'm not sure it should linearly scale (probably not), but they seem like they scale down rather than up with an increase in staff.
This is what happens when game studios are being run by people that only view video games as a means to generate money. They do not understand the industry or craft involved and will blindly apply whatever the newest MBA management strategy is the new hotness, throw money and headcount at projects. And cannot understand that more is usually not better when it comes to video game development.

I was a flight attendant with TWA, so take this as what it is: advice from 20+ years ago.
If all the overhead bins are full they will gate check your bag; tag it, send it down the external stairs of the jetway, and it will go in the belly with the other checked luggage.

we are seeing multidimensional cross sections of them, which give them such an otherworldly appearance
Accurate or not I've always liked Vonnegut's description of the viewpoint from the 4th dimension to the 3rd:
“The creatures can see where each star has been and where it is going, so that the heavens are filled with rarefied, luminous spaghetti. And Tralfamadorians don’t see human beings as two-legged creatures, either. They see them as great millepedes—“with babies’ legs at one end and old people’s legs at the other,” says Billy Pilgrim.

That's because the meme references a time earlier than the 1980s. 1950-1970 or so would be the bubble of time where this was still possible. Union declines up to 1980 aided Reagonomics in thoroughly fucking everyone from middle incomes down.

It's amazing republicans even show their true face in public with all the persecution they endure.
They should hide themselves better or people might identify them as conservatives.

Letitia James can target any Donald Trump assets "across the world": Lawyer
barred him from doing business in New York for three years
Where is Truth Social incorporated? If Truth Social has an IPO would sale of stocks be considered "doing business" in NY? Genuinely asking if stock IPOs count as "doing business".
Edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Social Founded by Trump who would also be a beneficiary of any business transactions for Truth Social(?)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Media_%26_Technology_Group
Owned by TMTG which lists two key people: Donald Trump (Chairman) Devin Nunes (CEO)
Does being chairman count?
"Doing business in NYC" sounds so nebulous. I want it to be a golden shower over all his business dealings. For me to enjoy seeing this scumbag lose all of his ill gotten gains so publicly is not my proudest moment as a human being but I am popping popcorn and getting snacks ready to kick back and relish the schadenfreude.
