Meh, what's some paltry insider trading at the end of the day? I mean, she effectively stole $1m from everyone else who holds Trump Media - I'm sure they don't care. /s
I guess the only way to answer that is to ask what things were like 10 years ago and where they are now and then project that another 10 years forward.
Misinformation will be worse and people will be dumber. It will be a "choose your own reality" type situation where any claim can be opposed with a mountain of manufactured evidence. Institutions like Wikipedia and public broadcasters and the internet archive will be hollowed out and corrupted.
Financial mobility will be nil. If you don't get support from your parents then you're basically slave class. Work an awful job your entire life in order to not starve when you're too old to continue working. Wealth will be a lot more concentrated and classes will be more ingrained between the haves and the have-nots. A lot of medical interventions like growing new organs will be available to the haves but permanently out of reach for the have-nots.
Climate Change will have progressed much faster than we predicted (that's what's been happening). Mass extinctions and climate change starting to make critical food sources (like fisheries) unstable. Bullshit weather events like drought and flood making broad acre farming unstable. Plastic.
There are some positives. Advances in medicine, progress towards net zero carbon emissions, DJT probably being dead.
Is a bribe really a bribe if it's provided in exchange for an official act? That sounds more like a contractual arrangement, which is obviously not a bribe.
Additionally, it's obviously worse if the reciprocation is undocumented. The money is provided in exchange for various favors of an undisclosed nature.
Their ruling is a non-sequitur. They're basically just saying "it's a bribe, deal with it".
I've never heard it in a corporate context, but I had thought in a personal context it's not necessarily something to be achieved but what is meaningful or what has value for you.
For example...
Uh..
Yeah actually IDK what my north star is. Maybe enough internet for me.
Unrelated but I only recently realised that when someone says they believe in family values it means they want to impose their definition of "family" on everyone else.
From an employer I guess when they refer to family they're really referring to a bond beyond work, which basically means they're expecting more from you than you're paid for?
He probably thinks he's generally a "good" person, and making the world a better place, buy just that people misunderstand him. That's wild. Fuck I really want to know to what extent he actually believes this.
I guess being a billionaire would be quite isolating. It might feel like you're the only member of your species. There's primitive monkeys you can interact with and some of them pretend to like you, but none of them really feel you or care about you.
I'm kind of astonished that even republicans can't see anything wrong with everything happening. Like conservative ideals are one thing but dismantling the rule of law is a whole other thing.
It just felt fucking amazing to watch the results come in last night.
Trump wasn't the only consideration for voters and I suspect that Albo would've formed government even without the Trump effect, but Dutton (conservative leader) ran on Trump-style culture war bullshit and it's been absolutely rejected.
I had a heart attack 2 years ago at 41. I'm not obese, and I'm reasonably fit and active, I just made some poor decisions and lost the genetic lottery.
I got a re-sleeve and aparently my ticker is tip top again. I didn't even need "surgery". They just ran their magical fixerupper up my vein from my wrist.
Not very long ago I would just be fucked up for the very brief rest of my life.
