I completely agree with everyone who’s told you to do what you love. I do have a question for you to consider, though: is sculpting really the problem, or is it the academic environment (with all the rules, pressure, judgement etc. that you’re dealing with). Classes can suck the joy out of anything.

I don’t want to discourage you from changing your path; I just want you to be sure that you’re being honest with yourself.

Living in denial is easy to continue doing and widely encouraged, while being very hard to overcome.

This reads like a sovcit defense.

Wheelahan summarized X's argument as saying that "X Corp was not obliged to prepare any report in Twitter Inc’s place, as X Corp was not the same person as the provider to whom the notice was issued."

Anyway, start charging interest. A lot. Backdated to October of last year.

This is entirely on Twitter. For your average person, sending a court-ordered fine to the wrong institution means it hasn’t been paid.

Plus, theres the fact that Musk is completely untrustworthy. After all the effort it’s taken to get Twitter to pay up, I wouldn’t restore their ability to earn income from Brazilians until the fine was secured thoroughly and correctly.

Investing in Reddit is a mistake second only to using Reddit.

That judge’s stance on “viewpoints” should be the national standard.

The doctor smiling in the last panel is what makes it.

If this was a show, I’d watch it. My proposed title: Smartass MD.

The “at least” in the title is absolutely essential.

I needed a good “leopards ate my face” story today. Thanks, OP!

You’re completely right. They probably only did this to avoid a lawsuit:

“We [DoorDash] have closely cooperated with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice on their investigation, and we are grateful for their efforts and work. We have fully supported all the Dashers impacted by this fraud, including reimbursing them any earnings taken,” the spokesperson said.

Stay classy, Don.

They can do whatever the fuck they want. I gave up on them when this first started.

 

Is it because of the instance they’re posting from, some kind of “award”, or what?
