I don’t believe that the founding fathers were that concerned about religion. Their bigger concern was the size of the federal government. They knew that once a government grew to a massive size, that anything that became intertwined with it would lead to corruption, including religion.

@ForemanTaxLaw One more…and there goes their family’s discretionary spending. If only there was something to be read or studied, past as prologue, something about studying history….

Let's say we cut social security, medicare/medicaid, SNAP, etc. Yes, the government saves money, but it's not like people who rely on them have other funds. They'll stop buying, they'll stop renting, etc. The effect on the economy, well, this is why the Great Depression happened.

@_jcmurray I like the idea of having a WR who can catch a back-shoulder fade in the end zone coming from a guy who is the size of a linebacker

Real talk. Am i getting screwed on taxes? I pay 50% of everything I make to the Gov. Is Kamala saying teachers, nurses and firefighters pay more than 50%? I've asked my accountants for this super wealthy tax break and they cant seem to find it.

If your startup has a good growth rate, no one will care who's on your board of advisors. If you don't have a good growth rate, no one will care who's on your board of advisors. Ergo, no one will care who's on your board of advisors.

Pro tip: If you're going to be the kind of lawyer who corrects grammar instead of substance, don't use "can not" when you should use "cannot".

Why wasn't there more M&A at the market lows? Sociology: It's hard to try to catch a falling knife, even for Pharma BD groups. So much easier for M&A with upward momentum in the stock and the sector, for both seller and buyer.
mets17@adar170

where was the massive M&A during the lows ?

Unless there is legislative change, it no longer makes sense to start a bootstrapped software startup in America anymore It’s hard to overstate how catastrophically bad Section 174 is for software companies Here’s an overview for anyone hearing about this only recently:

This play is INSANE. Biggest moment of the game. Pressure in his face. Running backwards. Throwing off balance. Josh Allen is a freak. #BillsMafia @BuffaloPlus

I feel like it's relevant that the refs missed a half dozen calls, including calling an intentional grounding (which is basically never called) when they missed a horse collar tackle (which is routinely called).

The @Eagles' OT thriller against Buffalo was the first time since 2021 that a team with fewer than 400 total yards beat an opponent with at least 500. #Eagles | #FlyEaglesFly
