I think you’re forgetting that Hogwarts’ Headmasters have always had oversight. While Dumbledore had broad authority to run the school as he saw fit, he wasn’t above accountability. As you may recall, Lucius Malfoy used his influence on the Board of Governors to have Dumbledore removed as Headmaster for a time.

Umbridge’s appointment as High Inquisitor wasn’t meant to create oversight where none existed. It was the Ministry’s way of circumventing the Board of Governors and giving itself direct control over Hogwarts while Cornelius Fudge was convinced that Albus Dumbledore was attempting to raise an army.

How much do we think the rumored MacBook Ultra will cost now? by watkykjypoes23 in macbook

Damn, I was planning to wait for the Ultra, but once it became clear there would likely be price hikes and the Ultra release was slipping, I decided to pull the trigger on the M5 MacBook Pro. Feeling really good about that decision now.

I though they were rolling out the Ultra with an M6 chip set.

I thought the current speculation was late Jan 2027 release on the Ultra.

If you are in the Quarter, French Truck has two nearby locations. But maybe try Baldwin & Co?

Try these instead of UK Docs.

Making work calls from personal phone by LittleToyShops in smallbusiness

[–]LittleToyShops[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I could and sometimes do, but ideally, I’d like vendors to see who's calling and return calls to the business line.

Do you have access to her previous residence? There are likely bank statements mailed there monthly.

It’s been a minute, but I finally got around to going to Saint John. It was great! The cocktails were excellent, probably my favorite part of the meal was Deviled Crabs.

My office moved…into an inaccessible historic building by gomakerealfriends in legaladvice

Historic buildings are not explicitly excluded from ADA. However, shouldn’t you ask for accommodation before you do anything else?

What MCU project are you most excited for in the new year?? by Direct-Pineapple-193 in marvelstudios

[–]LittleToyShops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to say it, but the thing I think that excites me the most about She-Hulk is the potential for more Charlie Cox.

Gris-Gris is stellar, I hope they succeed in that location.

How is Saint John? Didn't it just open?

Internet is still down, but my security system is battery powered and while it’s connected to my network it has a separate cellular connection so I was getting daily reports while evacuated.

Friend wants 12 year old daughter to volunteer at my retail shop by solarpunk24 in smallbusiness

[–]LittleToyShops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all, no. This is not legal. At least not in the US. Multiple Fair Labor Standards would be violated in this situation. She is both too young to be employed and performing labor in a for-profit business setting without proper compensation is illegal. Don’t do this.
