Tesla dealerships are getting protested and, in some cases, vandalized. Sales are down on 9 of the top 10 countries Tesla sells in. Yet Tesla stock is up. Twitter is a cesspool of nazi-themed bots, and somehow just pulled in $1bn and raised its valuation back up to $44bn.

How is any of this possible? It seems really artificial to me, but I don't really understand business.

quote:

  1. I am the one who keeps doing this
  2. This is not because you own a Tesla, but because of who you are as a person and the choices you have made.
  3. Every time you veer out of your way to splash people while we are waiting for the bus, I will do it again.
  4. You are never going to catch me.

That is all.

An investigative report released by James’ office determined prosecutors would not be able to disprove that the deputy, John Rosello, believed the car was about to hit him or that firing into the car was a way to prevent himself from being harmed.

Rosello, of the Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office, fatally shot Dhal Apet, 17, and Lueth Mo, 15, as he was investigating the burglary of a smoke shop in the Syracuse area and responding to a call about people transferring items between two vehicles.

Surveillance video of the shooting previously released by the attorney general’s office shows the deputy use his SUV’s front bumper to pin one of the cars into a row of bushes. Rosello then gets out of the vehicle, stands for a moment in front of the car Apet and Mo are riding in, then steps out of the way with his firearm apparently aimed at the car as it moves forward.

The FBI’s New York field office normally handles counterintelligence, counterterrorism, public corruption, international drug trafficking, and financial crime investigations. Right now, though, it has been ordered to prioritize redacting sensitive information in the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Vanity Fair reports, citing multiple sources, that nearly a thousand agents, who normally work on national security issues in the bureau’s largest field office, are working night and day combing the documents instead of on their regular jobs.

“It’s literally all hands on deck,” one unnamed source told the magazine. “I even saw an agent walking in with a pillow.” One former agent called the situation “ludicrous.”

Summary

Elon Musk's America PAC is offering $100 to registered voters who sign a petition opposing "activist judges" ahead of Wisconsin's Supreme Court election on April 1st.

The legality of this tactic is debated, as it doesn’t mandate voting but requires voter registration.

The race pits conservative Brad Schimel, backed by Musk’s $14 million, against liberal Judge Susan Crawford, with liberals aiming to retain a 4-3 majority.

Musk's support also ties to Tesla’s lawsuit against Wisconsin's dealership ban.

The Michigan Court of Appeals, in an 18-page opinion, declined to interfere with a 1931 law that carries a five-year prison term for simply having brass knuckles, also known as metallic knuckles.

A “ban on the possession of metallic knuckles falls within the historical tradition of prohibiting the concealed carry of metallic knuckles as a dangerous and unusual weapon,” Judge Christopher Murray wrote in a 3-0 opinion Tuesday.

Brass knuckles are usually a single set of rings that fits on someone’s hand. A punch can inflict serious injuries.

I generally trust America's Finest News Source for their TTT reporting. (Timely, Topical, Accurate)

However, I recently read an article, 'Experts Recommend Using Hunger As Egg Substitute', which had a glaring and obvious piece of misinformation. In this news, they write "It’s also vegan, cost-effective, and much lower in cholesterol compared to a typical egg-based dish.". Although I will concede that it is significantly more cost-effective (in the short term) than other substitutes, as a Vegan, I CANNOT STAND for this blatant and utter untruth. The body digesting it's stomach lining in hope of scrounging nutrients that aren't there simply cannot be construed as being anything other than 'eating meat'. I will stick to eating eggs, thank you.

I had previously enjoyed articles such as 'Your Horoscope — Today’s Birthday', 'We're Under New Management, Effective Immediately', and 'Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point'.

Despite these previously outstanding articles from them, I will NO LONGER be reading their 'news'paper due to this CRITICAL offense.

yes this is OC, yes I did actually send this to them as an email, no I don't hate vegans
