Posted in: LDP amends party rules to toughen penalties for fund violations See in context

The revised internal rules stipulate that the LDP can urge a lawmaker to leave the party if an accountant of their political group is arrested or if the lawmaker is prosecuted for violating the political funds control law.

So... The revised one allows for them to urge them to leave the party if prosecuted; the non revised one means they can't even ask? They are tethered to the payroll for life? Sure... I believe that

Doesn't seem realistic to reinstate the community as it involves various members, the neighbours she talk of may not want to remain there. So the community she pines for just isn't the same.

There is literally no talk of the dangers related to the meltdown. Not to be rude but 18 interviewee feels like it's anecdotal.

"How does it feel masaya?"

"It's nothing, is the device even on?"

"Oh let me see" cranks up the pain

Ah, the witcher, there is no shame in Jerry rigging more female lead into male lead stories, just to prop up stats at the cost of everything else.

I hope no one is confused by the fact that the most important thing to a company, China will not provide, and that is stability. Things may be great today, but no one knows about tomorrow.

Don't think the student learnt any lesson here, as the only one punished is the teacher.

Posted in: The number of marriages in Japan last year fell below half a million for the first time in 90 years, according to the health ministry. What do you think are some of the reasons for this? See in context

The progression from dating to marriage to having kids is quite time and resource restricted. It's not only it takes alot of time and resources but there's only so much to accomplish them. Many factors impact this including demographic, economic, hierarchal, technological, social ones. And basically most of the changes in those over past 90 years I would say overall negatively impacts the younger generation.

I hope he presumed there was the possibility of some malpractice, rather than due to perversion.

Some of the things human convince themselves of is simply amazing.

Posted in: 'Star Wars' actor sues Disney with funding from Elon Musk's X See in context

Freedom of speech does not mean free from consequence. And while it's less than ideal, on some level the employer is tied at the hip to the views of their employees even if they are expressing them personally.

If the employer could actually detach themselves from the personally expressed views it wouldn't be and issue but they can't. Again perhaps a problem of liberals own making.

As far as extreme / inappropriate remarks or comparison, if that ain't it I don't know what is.

Posted in: U.S. judge voids Elon Musk's $56 billion Tesla compensation See in context

Might I add this is a court ruling that the package is "unreasonable" rather than the company being unable to, or due to market forces.

Posted in: U.S. judge voids Elon Musk's $56 billion Tesla compensation See in context

Am I the only one a little amused that news of a reduced pay package to Musk is actually bad news for Tesla somehow. Perhaps it's in anticipation that Musk would sell stock due to the lower comp? (Can't see this being true in reality)

This also means there's a positive correlation between stock price and how much you pay your "employees"?

Posted in: Why has there been such a big increase in racist chants and messages directed against sports stars (especially soccer) around the world, online and also by fans at games? See in context

Previously there had been a decline in reported incidents of racially charged non-violent abuse, such as chanting or verbal intimidation, from 99 during the 2013-14 season, to 78 in 2014-15, 68 in 2015-16 and 70 in 2016-17.

Did anyone ask why there was a drop? Did we consider the increase in the amount of fans?

It is new years, obviously there wasn't excess supply to fulfill the sudden change in demand. Certainly going to be a cost associated with timely changes. As if the other modes of transport wasn't full already.

I'm with the government as well here. Meta 's reaction to the legislation should tell all you need to know whose side you should be on. It seemed to me to be along the lines of "Who do you think you are? You need me to survive! I'll do as I please and squash you like a bug!"
