Thou shalt not talk about BribeJet or pictures of seashells or criticize his morality or call his mental condition into question or else he will get really really angry and post an ALL CAPS LIE on LieSocial and then sue you and eventually lose. So you know, oh no.

Einstein's first letter to Marie Curie in 1911, and his advice on how to deal with haters:
"If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don’t read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom it has been fabricated."

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

So that $10B bailout for farmers.

Is it a payout for political support? Yeah. Bold move for an industry that talks so much about hard work & independence!

But it's also worse than that. This is a US food crisis in the making.

Let's talk about the payoff part first?

"When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to do something about it." - John Lewis.

It's not enough to simply recognize something is wrong; we have a moral duty to act.
John Lewis Never Stopped Bending the Arc Toward Justice
In the last days of his life, the civil rights icon hailed Black Lives Matter protesters: “They’re going to help redeem the soul of America.”
