Now that I'm recognizing that, I'm trying to create systems to force me to complete a project before starting a new one. Also eating much simpler foods.

It’s kind of amazing that conservative oligarchs are just openly using their wealth to further political and hate based goals now. But you know, gotta be worried about Russian oligarchs and not American ones

Well it's refundable which means you get the money even if your tax bill is zero (although it can be used to pay prior taxes and also seized by the state for child support).

Mr Hootington posted:Both. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/trian-peltz-disney-whitepaper-released-1235842501/ quote:Disney’s other activist, Jason Aintabi’s Blackwells, has offered suggestions of its own, including spinning out Disney’s real estate holdings into a Real Estate Investment Trust (a REIT), and using AI to create characters and expand the company’s parks business. Why does so much our wealthy class not get what makes popular art successful? Generally, we seem to have a ton of wealthy people who want to take the fun stuff (like art and music) away from humans while leaving humans with the joyless, unrewarding drudge work. Wasn't it supposed to be the other way around?

Nonsense posted:was the hostile takeover people wanting to get rid of the woke, or was it just pissy businessmen I mean, the only reason it got this far is pissy businessmen mad about Disney under-delivering the last few years, but here's the word straight from Nelson Peltz's mouth in a recent interview: quote:“People go to watch a movie or a show to be entertained…They don’t go to get a message. Why do I have to have a Marvel that’s all women? Not that I have anything against women, but why do I have to do that?” so yeah
