  I did not assert that the court gave full immunity for all things, but will now suggest that not every crime is a violation of the constitution, or could not be committed while carrying out a function of the constitution.

  Why would immunity be necessary if the act is not otherwise a crime?

  I didn’t remember the mushroom people reference until I started singing the song in my head, and then lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare Employee records her final meeting where HR tries to fire her⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll take this into consideration the next time I look for a new position. I’ve never been on the side of performing or requesting a background check on a potential employee, but have almost always been asked why I left my previous employer when I’ve interviewed for a new position. Thanks internet friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare Employee records her final meeting where HR tries to fire her⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like it would also have the effect of making the employee less appealing to any potential future employers. When asked in an interview why they left their previous job, these people have to decide whether to say honestly that they were let go because of mismanagement and risk their possible new job on whether the background check includes a call to the HR department of your last employer, or give the line that would match the HR record and say they were fired for poor performance. Either way is going to make it pretty hard to get hired, and so if Cloudflare ever needs to hire again in the future, there’s a decent chance these people will still be seeking employment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nic Cage through the years⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  From what I could tell, his “appearance” in The Flash, which is in quotes because I’m fairly certain it was all CGI with no dialogue, was an incredibly deep cut inside joke for a Tim Burton Superman movie that never got released. His “appearance” in The Flash should not be considered a Nic Cage performance.

  I’m not familiar with KajaGooGoo, but I remember the Goo Goo Dolls. Sounds like either would have been a fun opening act for Gaga.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We have had guns for 200 years but mass shootings only became common in the last 30. So what changed?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If we’re setting the calendar back 200 years, I’d have to guess that one of the contributing factors is records keeping and reporting. The definition of what is considered a “mass shooting” has also been fluid over the past 50 or so years.

  These are not likely to be major contributors, but from Hollywood’s depictions, mass shootings may have been pretty common around 150 years ago.
