They had some really, um, 90s commercials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppniBSWGgcg

And another thing I haven't worried about in close to thirty years: the Bermuda Triangle

Socially Jew, economically Nazi?

Yes, but that's when they were delivering returns for their shareholders

You talking about Don Snoreleone?

I haven't been following this too closely. Don't tell me that people are coming out in support of her for that.

I hope you get to do whatever helps you recover and re-energize, but for me it's unplugging from everything and getting lost in the natural world. Hang in there, buddy.

Maybe not the 5 richest, but a random sampling from the top 50 (we can work out the exact mechanics). Keeps it spicier, and the ultra-wealthy love feeling like they're gambling.

But hey, at least one of them became President.

This is the wrong community to post a photo of a tiger in. I imagine it should only be crocheted items here.

Seriously though, super cute!

I'm all for it. I'm not sure what laws actually exist in the USA related to this, which is, I imagine, why it's so pervasive. Some states have started passing legislation to help their residents protect their privacy, but until we have something on a national level it's going to be an issue.

Even though it seems like common sense, our current society is ruled by profit and extraction, not decency. Throwing CEOs and boards in prison with a lot of publicity sure could be a way to change that...

Super cute... thank you for posting this!

I should have looked into it before posting as I misremembered the breadth of the issue, but when I first started going out there for work this was a recent happening: https://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/07/13/somalia.americans.killed/index.html

So it wasn't terrorist cells as such, but some guys recruiting Somali-Americans to go to Somalia and fight for some other guys.
