@iRito__ @VoidOfRoses Yep. The job description is literally "Just stay alive for four years. Small but non-zero chance you will need to assume the the most important and stressful job in the country at a time of extreme uncertainty.".

@limitlessjest I think celebs encouraging people to register to vote/alerting them to deadlines for registering and voting is broadly good, they can reach people thay don't see other political media. I agree over the top work pushing a specific candidate can be too much though.

@barenakedladles @elamin88 This is not just a Kanye thing, the pervasiveness of holocaust ignorance is pretty dramatic in the US and I'm sure elsewhere as well.

@superinducting Post your pay stub. 400k per year salary =/= 24k take home per year after taxes, so would like to see what else you're having taken out.

@CMSLOPOrion @fullytacomatic @scifichick25 Bro, if you think RDJ wasnt a risky bet in '06/'07 when casting and filming occured you're not actually aware of his history. This is a list that seems to be thinking that over half the people were as famous before they joined the MCU as they became afterward.

@Manoj_Pawar @choo_ek Its a complex problem because the actual real brands leaving Twitter is not a guarantee that those brands wont still be faked on Twitter, they will have to decide if dealing with having a real twitter account for the brand would help them fight the fakes, or cause more, on net.

@hankgreen Hank I've got a great $1M idea for you, it's a subscription service that alerts you to new ponzi schemes! I figure to help get it off the ground, we can waive the signup fee when you bring in new subscribers and even pay a cash reward/commission for each one!.

@lolipop_613 @yFactr By far the biggest problem is that humanity has clearly developed ships that can go from low orbit to the surface and back several times with no huge rockets to haul cargo, and yet a big portion of the plot is NASA figuring out how to cost effectively get people off earth.

@ArmandDoma If Thomas and Alito get replaced by Trump or any Republican the conservative justices will be so young on average that they can likely maintain at least a 5-4 majority for many decades through tactical retirements. It's real bad.
