I follow current events, science fiction, the New England Patriots and anything else I find of interest. I don’t post much but I do read everything just about.

How did you vote on election reform as a congressman? Not harassing you, I don’t know how you voted.

It made me think of the credits to MontyPython's The Holy Grail. The whole thing is hilarious. Llama references being at 3:15

No. the faces of naked ambition for power.

What can investors do to encourage best practices with respect to privacy, avoiding algorythmic bias, and, supply chain issues with labor rights?

yes. It makes me uncomfortable with the thought that there really are special rules for the powerful. On the other hand, Trump and Trumpistas have indicated that they will seek revenge using Hunter. So I'm not sure what else a good father could do.

If one could consider what happens on x as an exchange of ideas, you would have a point.

I'm left to wonder how transnational corporations that abide by European laws would deal with this pause.

yes. the sound of waves lapping onto the shore whether in warm or cold weather has a soothing effect.

A fee for use. That would be fair.

Unfortunately the sheep have a proliferation of bad shepherds. at this point on our history taxation is highly unlikely. How would you feel about fees?

Are you indicating that you sued or defended a church?

At least it would be transparent. Whereas now some churches hide behind exempt status

An aside, perhaps, how would address financial corruption in churches? It seems easy for scammers to abuse the right to religious freedom.

Perhaps a panel with rights to appeal

Nah I’ve read many conversations from Atticus. He is a man of good faith. He does have a point. We do want separation of church and state. And it would be all too easy for the coercive power of the state to overwhelm. Equally the church should stay out of state business.

That is the harder question but one would think megachurches with private keys and such would be a place to begin. A transparency requirement for income and expenses could be required.

Can’t answer for the op, but to the extent a church has become a profit center rather than a ministry taxing seems fair

The thing is the bureaucrat implements the policy. If we are villains it may be because the policy is illegal or otherwise heinous and we point that out and recuse or refuse.

oops think I was autocorrected - an exvangelical

Instead the evangelical church has grasped for power and it has been corrupted. I saw this clearly in the 1980s when Reagan was elected.

are any of your folks on the list also engaged in neurotechnology? Trying to read everything I can in impacts of neurotech on human rights (privacy, fundamental freedoms, bodily autonomy, etc.)

Even so, early Christianity was seen as subversive by the State. Also an evangelical here. The evangelical church to me underplays where Jesus was clearly in opposition to powers of his time - especially religious powers.

I think I would follow and try to reply with facts. I certainly don't feel a need to couch replies with "with the utmost respect"

I played the dentist routine for some of my gen x staff - they doubled over laughing. They had never seen any Carol Burnett. Almost criminal lack of comedy education.

Doesn’t matter to them. Republicans will still claim a mandate out of hubris.
