Neither my wife nor I wanted kids but we still got married. The legal aspects you touch on are pretty darned important even without kids in the picture. Health/medical reasons are another huge one. We have a friend who lived with her partner for decades, but never got married. When he fell ill and was hospitalized it was virtually impossible for her to make any decisions, tell the doctors what his wishes were, etc. All because they weren’t legally married.
I’d return for a significantly higher salary, then spend most of my time leveraging that for even more in the private sector.
So when will they drink the Flavor Aid?
Fireworks are legal in New Hampshire but not Massachusetts. The MA police will stake out NH firework shops near the border before July 4 and pull over MA cars they see loading up once they cross back into the state…
I’m outside Boston and I see a lot here as well…
There are already a growing number of EV alternatives. I will definitely be looking at all of them a few years down the line when I decide to get rid of my Tesla.
And it will run perfectly fine on ten year old computer hardware using nothing but cameras in any manner of weather.
If Musk is removed AND major changes are made to the brand then Tesla might have a long term chance in the US market.
I bought a Tesla before the Musk craziness was in full display, and I can honestly say I wouldn’t buy another one (or recommend them to others) unless they seriously redesigned the physical controls, and focused more on truly useful software features. Not just games, “fart mode”, and a full self driving system that’s been promised for a decade now…
According to wikipedia, among other things:
In 2012 (by far Ukraine’s most successful year of arms export)[11]Ukraine had the status of world’s 4th largest arms exporter.
If they were the worlds 4th then they were likely doing a lot more than just the former USSR.
They already were prior to the Russian invasion.
You misspelled “kisses the ass of the dictator”.
Yeah, but how much of Congress is still determined to see how far up Trumps ass their tongues can go?
Properly configured telephone systems at hospitals etc. will show their main public facing phone number on Caller ID for any outbound call.
Next up, Trump rounds up migrants to rake up all the leaves in the forests.
Well it is a day ending in “y”.
What has Musk built?
His wealth comes from daddy’s emerald mine.
He started an online payments platform that didn’t do very well and ultimately merged with PayPal.
He bought his way into Tesla and forced the cofounders out.
He founded SpaceX and gave himself the title of Chief Scientist but all the real work is done by actual rocket scientists and not him.
He’s founded other companies like Starlink & Neuralink with his vast fortune but he largely stays out of their way.
He bought Twitter and has made a mess of it.
And so on…
If meat grinder fodder is sufficient for Putin’s needs then Trump sees no reason not to do the same thing here.
His plan was to pressure them the way he’s used to pressuring people in his business dealings. The only problem is that countries like Ukraine aren’t just businesses that he can stiff, drag to court, etc.
If Elon can own 5+ companies then surely they can manage one!
Trump was upset he had to attend the funeral instead of playing golf at one of his clubs. That’s likely all he was thinking about.
