Lawrence Gridin

Today I announce the launch of my new law practice, Gridin Advocates. Thank you to my amazing partners and colleagues at @BrautiThorning, and the hundreds of clients who have trusted in me over the years, all of whom have laid the foundation for this professional milestone.

@JasonKPargin 😂

Such a clear indication that they need to reinforce those places where it's getting shot

@NoahWebb_ @ManyBeenRinsed I use ULO rates. It's like $1.50 to charge my Model S as long as I schedule it to start after 11pm.

@ManyBeenRinsed Off peak rates in Ontario are like $0.13/kWh. That’s about $6 to fully charge a Model 3 ($40,000 vehicle). If you drive 25,000KM p/year you’re talking about $400-$500 annually. The person paying for gas is looking at $3000 plus. In Ontario the savings are immense.

It’s cute the amount of Canadians who bought expensive EV’s to fight high gas prices but didn’t realize their hydro bills at home would go up hundreds.

@The_Real_ITDUDE Eternal flight! 😁

Ukraine shot down a Su-34 in Zaporizhia Oblast. Crew did not live. Fck em

montreal is beautiful bc if you speak english they get annoyed and if you try to speak french they get annoyed and speak english back to you

@NASAAdmin @Pinboard Great response

No commercial alternative just yet, but the day will surely come, and that is when infrequent crewed missions to the Moon become routine. And just because the agency tolerated externally imposed and self-inflicted inefficiencies in the past does not mean we are willing to tolerate them going forward. The President’s Executive Order made that clear. At NASA, we are on mission, and the clock is running.

Interesting statement from an agency whose flagship rocket costs *40 times* more to launch than the commercial alternative

@dieworkwear A warning about the dangers of having a lazy valet

I'm a big fan of how Charles dressed in the past, particularly during the 1980s and 90s. However, he broke up with his primary tailor a couple of decades ago. I've heard some conflicting rumors about who cuts his clothes now. He dresses better than most men, but I agree that suit doesn't look great. In that specific case, it looks to me like someone hit his suit with a steamer, rather than giving it a good pressing. This occasionally happens when people travel, although some of the King's position should have a valet traveling with him to press his clothes. Perhaps another warning about the dangers of using a steamer on tailored clothing.

@MaxNordau It was totally flattened. You missed it.

Update?

@victorz321 @JohnnyFDK Lol now price it in any other currency hahah

@JohnnyFDK right.....

Russia's economy is crumbling, this new measure by the Minister of Finance is proposing to force anyone with over $32,000 in their bank accounts into converting them into what are basically military bonds, so that Putin can continue his losing battle in Ukraine. Even if this doesn't go through, the fact that she is recommending this shows how bad things are in Russia. Now that it's leaked, I can imagine a bank run and even less trust in their financial system. Things are bad in Russia, they can't continue their war forever. Sure, they may find a way to patch it up and delay things, as they have been since 2022, but all of these actions steal from Russia's future to finance an unnecessary war today.

Sometimes I wonder why some stuff is so expensive and then I see Videos like this then I understand.

@MaxNordau To add insult to injury, the Jews used a time dilation device to make him age a decade. When will the atrocities stop?

This is Yakub al-Dir, a six-year-old child from Ghazza. Israel beat him up and stole all of his vital organs. Yes, all of them. He has survived without a brain for over a decade. Friends, won’t you pray for little Yakub?

@cavemanlwr @MaxNordau Send a Greta convoy to help immediately!!

@MaxNordau That’s not funny. Do you know how many Gazans and Gaza/Hamas supporters suffer daily because they’ve had their brains removed? For only $19 per month, you can help.

@UsmanAbidemiEsq I had a case like this in real life. And yes, the result was the same as the answer.

Criminal law students should attempt this.

@AngryLevantine 💯

If you... * Support Israel 🇮🇱 * Recognize Ashkenazim as MENA/indigenous to Israel as all Jews are * Support freeing Iran 🇮🇷, Ukraine 🇺🇦, Taiwan 🇹🇼, Cyprus 🇨🇾 * Oppose Russia 🇷🇺, CCP 🇨🇳, Turkey 🇹🇷, communism, North Korea 🇰🇵, Palestine 🇵🇸 You are my friend without introduction.

@CptAllenHistory @LevinLaw I will never forget this "massacre." I still remember Saeb Erekat going on CNN screaming about the hundreds of dead. And at the time, I believed it. Totally made up. Valuable lesson that needs to be learned by this generation.

24 years ago, the Palestinian propaganda machine invented one of its most notorious fake massacres — and (shockingly, I know) the world believed it instantly. In the spring of 2002, suicide bombings had become almost daily events inside Israel. They reached their horrifying peak with the Passover Massacre on March 27, when a terrorist walked into the Park Hotel dining room in Netanya and murdered 29 people — many of them elderly Holocaust survivors. Israel had had enough. On March 29, the IDF launched Operation Defensive Shield to dismantle the terrorist infrastructure in Palestinian cities that had become safe havens for Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. Nowhere was that infrastructure more entrenched than in Jenin — the self-proclaimed “suiciders’ capital.” During the operation, the Palestinian "brand-Israel-as-war-criminals" routine immediately went into overdrive. They screamed the IDF had conducted a “massacre” in Jenin - more than 500 Palestinians slaughtered in cold blood, they said. The international media and the UN swallowed it whole. Headlines screamed about “Jenin: the new Srebrenica.” Demands for war crimes investigations poured in. Then the truth slowly dribbled out. The actual Palestinian death toll? Around 52, the vast majority of whom were armed terrorists. Oh, and roughly the same number of Israeli soldiers died clearing the camp house-by-house — because Israel deliberately chose the riskier ground-troop route to spare civilian lives instead of leveling the place from the air. The “massacre” was a lie. A deliberate, coordinated lie. This is the standard playbook in the anti-Israel propaganda war: invent a shocking atrocity, flood the media with it, let the world condemn Israel in real time … and by the time the facts prove it was fake, nobody cares anymore. We saw the exact same pattern again in October 2023 at Gaza’s Al-Ahli Hospital. Palestinian officials and their allies screamed that Israel had bombed a hospital and murdered 500 civilians (same false number claimed in Jenin 21 years earlier). World leaders rushed to condemn Israel. The libel raced around the globe. Then the evidence emerged: it was a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket. No Israeli strike was involved, and the death toll was far lower. But by then, the damage was done. Large parts of the international community love to tell and share the story of Jews as bloodthirsty killers. They buy it hook, line, and sinker - every ... single ... time. I try to push the historically verifiable facts into the open, one post at a time; but I know, by sheer numbers, that I can never "win" this battle. The anti-Israel propaganda machine is too loud, too well-funded, and too massive. But I can chip away at it, little by little, every day. Because the truth still matters. Even when the world would rather believe the lie.

@pl19971 @P_Kallioniemi They *don't care*

@P_Kallioniemi What surprises me the most is how can Russians even support Putin’s actions in Ukraine? Are they really that brainwashed?

A gentle reminder that most Russians don’t care about Ukraine or Ukrainians. The “protest movement” you see right now is happening because the war has reached them through higher prices and disruptions like mobile network outages. Many Russians in big cities, the population segment the Kremlin actually cares about, prefer an imperialist Russia as long as it does not affect their comfortable lives too much.

@persianjewess They force her to smile and have fun. If you look closely you can see her blinking the word "apartheid" in Morse code.

A Muslim DJ rocks out to Hebrew music at a wedding in Israel. She’s clearly oppressed by Apartheid. 🤨

@JakeLandauTO So we're against body worn cameras now?

Can't even watch a fucking movie about Palestine without cops wearing body cameras coming into the theatre to scan your face into a database.

@NASAAdmin Season 2 was amazing. But personally I can't wait for season 4 of this show. I've heard that's going to be the season where the astronauts walk on the moon again. EXCELLENT TV.

Next up, Artemis III 🇺🇸

Lebanese Industry Minister Joe El-Khoury: "Lebanon must accept Israel's existence and shift from a culture of war to a culture of peace. Israel has no expansionist agenda toward Lebanon."

@EYakoby 😂

“Hezbollah won!”
