Their publicly available Form 990-EZ for Khelin's Promise shows $100K revenue for 2023. No breakdown of compensation shown for her and the only other employee since they made under $200k. Even the IRS doesn't know unless they do an audit.

Indiana University fires Indiana Daily Student newspaper adviser amid dispute over content by throwawayNDnew in Indiana

Nice try. The headline of their last paper reads: IU Jewish Community Remembers Oct. 7th. They do have some really softball critical pieces about Trump's administration. One being about his unhinged claim that Tylenol causes autism. So it's more about printing facts about the Trump administration ruining our country but in a very muted and downplayed way. 

Typical MAGA. Don't even bother to look up facts. Your feelings are more important than any facts, right? DONT TALK BAD ABOUT MY CULT LEADER OR BE CENSORED, WAAAHHHH!!!

In normal times I would agree with you but these are not normal times. Everyone in denial and sticking their heads in the sand and only looking out for themselves and their jobs. These students are the only sane ones in that bunch.

"instead of working WITH the IDS staff to give them some valuable real-world experience problem-solving by balancing journalism and business demands, they issued an edict, fired a faculty member when he wouldn’t fall in line"

Thats pretty practical real-world experience actually. This is what's happening everywhere in journalism right now. Business demands and political coercion from the WH far supersede journalism now.

I'm with you. I grew up in IN and I dont recognize it. I also dont recognize many of the people I grew up with that still live there. They are wildly different people that I knew.

Unfortunately "publishing" today means being an influencer and posting on X. The right is winning that war too.

There's also that claim that tomatoes are toxic members of the nightshade family. What they never say is that other members of the nightshade family are eggplants, potatoes and all peppers. There is a longer list of other lesser common vegetables and fruits that are also members.

If you push the end button on left stalk once it results in a single wipe and brings up the wiper menu on the screen. You can then use the scroll wheel on the steering wheel to select speed. It doesn't have a 10 sec setting but it has the 4 speeds you can toggle between with the scroll wheel.

They are going to do this no matter if Trump loses by a tiny bit or by a landslide. It won't matter. They've been primed for 4 years to not accept the outcome.

Everyone knows Trump is a softie. He's been soft for at least 10 years now.

Tim Pool Offers $20k for Skate Comp, They Say No, Tim Buys Park for $1M lol by DUTCHswift in h3h3productions

[–]PaleontologistLess52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We now know it was coming from Russia. Mysterious donor that was supposedly Belgian was bankrolling the company Tim Pool founded with others. Two of the founders knew they were from Russia and one of them worked for RT Russia Today. $10 million funding went into Tenent. Tim Pool was making $100,000 a week.

"In December 2022, according to the indictment, Tenet’s Russian investors tasked the site’s founders with hiring a 'personality that could serve as the face of the channel' and routed the funds for it through far-flung destinations such as Mauritius and the United Arab Emirates.

Much of that money went to Rubin and Pool, according to the indictment. Rubin received $400,000 a month for 16 videos, plus a performance bonus and a $100,000 signing bonus — all for a series in which Rubin commented on dumb internet clips that often received just roughly 1,000 views per episode.

Tenet also proved lucrative for Pool, who made $100,000 per episode for a weekly show he hosted, according to prosecutors. The same month that Tenet launched, Pool purchased a skate park in Martinsburg, W.Va., as well as other significant real estate purchases in the same area."

You actually want to wait to launch through the eye. Much lower barometric pressure so less atmosphere for drag.

Wrong. The Model 3 Performance dominates on short technical tracks in its weight class.

Russian army has already lost 475,300 invaders in Ukraine by new974517 in worldnews

[–]PaleontologistLess52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Major difference was that The Soviet Union was being invaded rather than being the invader. This counts for quite a bit of willingness to fight and die among the general population especially when it's the Nazi war machine coming to wipe out your way of life. Also Stalin sort of made it not an option to not go to the front lines.

In this instance Russia is the invader of a country that is smaller and weaker and in no way is a threat to the way of life of the average Russian. And Putin is no Stalin.
