It has layers of corruption. Not only it acts as a blatant bribe as you said, but it also gives them an davantage in stock trading. He’s monetizing a means to do insider trading fraud.
Eventually a court will probably rule this practice illegal but by then they’ll all have made their money.
Hard to argue that they don’t get significant financial gain from that.
Oh Spy has known Scout’s mother for far longer than that
Don’t waste any brain cells reading through this comic. It’s AI slop.
I used a bus in Japan to go to Mount Fuji. Seats were assigned like on a plane and I was sitting next to some Japanese guy. I did my best to respect their customs and remained silent and kept to myself for the two hour ride. The inside of the bus was as silent as a church for the entire drive even though it was full.
On the way back at the end of the day, the bus had dropped a few passengers somewhere and stopped at a station for a toilet break. When we boarded again the driver went to see the passenger beside me and moved him to another seat on the bus to sit in a seat that had been freed up next to another Japanese person. It looks like the passenger went to see the driver to request the seat change during the break.
I’ve spent the rest of the ride wondering what I had done wrong. It’s really a fucked up feeling and it must be horrible to be experiencing this sort of passive aggressive racism on a daily basis in your own home.
Getting the federal government to stop doing things like that begins with getting Big Oil’s political influence and propaganda out of Alberta.
This is the result of them promoting an astroturf separatist movement which they weaponized to force the federal government to let them pollute the planet unhindered, under threat of destroying the country.

Shake My Head … Ehm… Ooooooooh
It served its purpose. Trump pocketed all that money.
But the executives can get away with making decisions that kill innocent people to save a few bucks.
Didn’t Arnold just say something in the lines of “I am in pain and therefore I will make everyone else in the city suffer with me” ?
I mean, it’s pretty much Mr Freeze’s entire motivation as a villain. But put like that it just felt like it was written by a toddler.
Did they change it is it an age thing?
When The Simpsons started it was believable that you could raise a family of 5 and own a house on one blue collar salary.
You know damn well that they expect the government to bail them out when that happens
I have to use Teams for work and it baffles me how unbelievably bad the interface is. Everything that should be easy and quick to do is made difficult and time consuming. Every time you try to do something simple you’d expect to be able to, it is blocked or limited in such a way that you can’t do it and you have to find a workaround. It fights you in every way it can whenever you’re trying to accomplish something. You also have to sign in with two factor authentication multiple times every day. I don’t understand how this so-called “productivity” suite is even tolerated by private companies. It cripples productivity.
I mean, the hair on top of his head is nothing but a huge combover for starters
Welp, here goes any chance for my next car to be a VW.
You can start doing most of these things right now. Just look at Lieutenant Columbo
Absolute monsters.
People who add cinnamon to meats, I mean.
Maybe they should impose a screen time curfew for their toddler in chief
