Personal income is paid from corporate gross profits (unless your company is failing, in which case your profits go negative, but that is still a profit impact), just like other fees like legal fees or whatever else. The money that is spent will necessarily reduce your profit, but it does not reduce your revenue. This is explicitly a business expense for Meta though, not personal income. This impacts profitability, not revenue. It would be an expense just the same if it was paid to zuck as income, so not much changes, but the point is you were right in spirit, just not in scale, and that’s all I meant

Anyone that doesn’t recognize this meme is about the class traitor and not the name they read on the screen needs to wake tf up

As soon as you’re born, they make you feel small By giving you no time instead of it all Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all

A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home, and they hit you at school They hate you if you’re clever, and they despise a fool Till you’re so fucking crazy, you can’t follow their rules

A working class hero is something to be

When they’ve tortured and scared you for twenty-odd years Then they expect you to pick a career When you can’t really function, you’re so full of fear

A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV And you think you’re so clever and classless and free But you’re still fucking peasants as far as I can see

A working class hero is something to be

There’s room at the top they are telling you still But first you must learn how to smile as you kill If you want to be like the folks on the hill

A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me

The money would come out of profit rather than rev, so it would be more like $2.00, but your point still stands gloriously as far as I’m concerned

Edit: there are undoubtedly tax implications that I ignored, I’m not an accountant, I just stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night

Out of curiosity, I just looked and noticed that Vermont’s GDP is the lowest of every state in the US ($44.4B), but it is higher than Estonia and 15 other European countries still. And the least-populated state, Wyoming (<600k people), has a larger population than at least 7 other European countries, Malta being the largest at just over 500k. Tangential, but I still thought it was interesting.

Well Texas already volunteered to donate land for Trump to build his first concentration camp so I mean, yeah, he’s been open to the idea of using camps pretty openly for a while. Stephen Miller discussed it as an eventual necessity even earlier.

This is how we finally achieve single payer healthcare in the US in the stupidest possible way and I wouldn’t bet against it this point: The Aetnited CigShield Corp!

In my pocket I carry a library of Alexandria, an infinite Walk-man, a camera and a camcorder with effectively infinite film, a personal navigator… You get the idea, the list goes on. 80s me would have thought this was impossible, even if I am a bit disappointed about the flying car and hoverboard situation.

Oh sure, we pay a LOT compared to other places, but at least our telecom security is top notch… (Big ole /s, in case someone may not have heard about the SALT Typhoon stuff yet)

Great, so we don’t need to do the whole paradox of tolerance thing then, yeah? Saying that it would be a shame if this guy’s own words came back to haunt him seems pretty fine to me.

Gimme a break. It’s literally his own words…

Be a real shame if he somehow learned the implications of “Your body, my choice” from the other perspective while in detention…
