You make a great point, and the title of the article is misleading at best, really just plain wrong IMHO. But the title also doesn't state he isn't invested in the stock market, only that he doesn't own any individual company stock.

Personally, I think this version is the most fair way for politicians. On one hand, any investment for them gives them incentive to put market health (money) over their constituents. On the other hand, investing in a 401k or mutual fund is something everyone should do, how else will you afford retirement?

Instructions unclear, discussed sexual boundaries with my players.

Wonderful! Our monstera stopped making babies recently, but it's become gigantic, practically unmanageable.

It's similar to the "unstoppable force meets an immovable object" thought experiment.

They can't both exist, just like 0 can't be the same as 1. If you somehow "forced" it to be true because an all powerful deity made it so, the logic breaks, and the answer is effectively useless to us.

So then if a deity made freewill, there MUST be evil, or at least the capability of it. My metaphor is sorta inverted, but hopefully it makes sense.

I've tried several boxes, even bought a couple of their fancy iridescent spoons!

IMHO the cereal is okay, but I love the spoons lol

I used to work at Geek Squad, and pranks are sorta ingrained into the culture. As a bit of background, our job title was "CIA", for Counter Intelligence Agent (as in, the "front counter" of the store). Definitely ran by nerds.

Anyway, when you get your CIA badge (literal medal badge, dubbed a "shield"), there's typically a ceremony, it gets presented, it's like a badge of honor, no pun intended. So when someone got theirs, I put it in orange jello. This guy had regularly yoinked other people's badges and would take random photos with them, it was good fun and harmless.

Years ago I did this to my boss, and printed out the "troll" face from rage comics. Had the satisfaction of watching him move the mouse around, get confused, pick up the mouse to look at it, see his shoulders slump and shake his head.

Just the smallest, dumbest thing, but I remember it 10 years later.
