Apparently, the Airman 1st Class (who was promptly demoted to from Senior Airman thanks to the transgression) was contacted by his superior and told to get to the class to which he simply replied: “Yolo, PS5 > letters of discipline.”

Guys, an actual filing in federal court is asking for the court to establish the Stewardship of Gondor in the absence of Aragorn. No, I'm not joking. h.t @questauthority
One thing that annoyed me when I first saw Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring was the implication that either Aragorn or his ancestors had deliberately abandoned Gondor. And now that incorrect idea has made its way into a legal filing.Frelga wrote:Turns out, LOTR takes legal precedence over the US Constitution.The tweet has the link to the pdf and there's more in the thread.Guys, an actual filing in federal court is asking for the court to establish the Stewardship of Gondor in the absence of Aragorn.

It is no wonder the poor and weak cling/clung to the idea of a divine being who sees all and will judge all from a purely moral perspective. It also explains why so many had a problem with the selling of 'indulgences' as if the church/priests could 'grease the palm' of God for entry into heaven.

What else aren't we being told because it might damage a powerful person? I'm really, really, really freakin tired of the rich and/or powerful being propped up above the law.
And once again I wonder where we are with exposing and prosecuting those involved with Epstein. Nobody is a solo sex-trafficker.

This has been my WTF browse through the news today. And it's only 10am
The author of that article notes: "I asked a tax lawyer and apparently it is not normal to be paid $148 million for tax advice, just so we're clear."After a year of mounting pressure from investors and outside critics, Leon Black, the billionaire chief executive of private equity giant Apollo Global Management, announced on Monday that he would step down later this year. Apparently the revelation that Black gave $148 million to deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein for supposed financial advice was enough to provoke an internal revolt among Apollo’s leadership.
I think this explains it:
I think some people have themselves nominated just to say they were nominated and have it make the news.The bar for nominations is low, as they are are accepted from thousands of people, from members of parliament to former winners and heads of state. There were more than 300 nominations for last year’s award, which was ultimately won by the World Food Programme.
Nominations, which closed on Sunday, do not imply an endorsement from the Nobel committee.
