The only reason to be against this kind of bonus payout that I can think of is that you do not want to encourage anyone to believe that they are owed anything. It’s to set up a forced gratitude economy where it’s unethical to question the fairness of your conditions.
Aha! This is the cheering.
My net worth is a rounding error compared to his, but I can make an audience laugh.

I cannot fathom the idea of making an *absolute killing* on a $750k project, bringing in 100s of millions, and not realizing that everyone involved played a part in that success.
The movie had like 40 crew or so? Can just top everyone up to a cool $1m each and still have absurd ROI.

Early voting starts tomorrow.
The good news is that the last time I begged for donations to stay in the race, you incredible humans of bluesky sent enough to keep me in. I am so grateful that you gave NY-03 a choice.
The bad news is that I need to raise a lot more for a final GOTV push.

Seattle has the 4th largest Somali population of any city in the world. The current administration barring Omar Aryan & FIFA supporting that is personal.

One reason Maine played out the way it did:
Mills refused to sign a bill that would have protected people from ICE, delaying its eventual passage without her signature by 6 months. Meanwhile, Platner was participating in things like this — Lewiston has a large Black New Mainer/immigrant community.

The way no one even bothers to try to stop Elon Musk anymore - he's allowed to take hundreds of billions of dollars in exchange for empty promises, or incite pogroms and push white nationalism, and no one pushes back or tries to constrain him at all - feels like a society that's simply given up
