Well, they will be prosecuted, or at least there is the chance that they will be. Trump was already convicted of sexual assault which in other states would have been a rape charge. The problem is that he, nor "high-profile people" will ever spend even a single day in the prison cell they belong into.

They got caught sleeping on the job, that's for sure.

If you want me to show up on Christmas, just pay me enough to show up on Christmas. It's really that simple, you're a million dollar company, act like it.

There literally should just be a cap. Make it something ridiculous like "billionaires are not allowed to exist, so everything you earn past $999,999,999.99 is public property" and I don't see any way how someone could disagree with this other than wanting to be a malicious parasite. That is more than enough money to buy a yacht for your yacht and is also an amount of money that cannot be legitimately obtained.

For me, it is. Maybe it's confirmation bias tho, I don't write a diary lol

But why is it that you always remember your appointment the day after? Why is your inner clock consistently off by one day?

At this point I'm sure it's not even about control anymore, it's just that privacy sometimes gets in the way of "line go up".

I didn't notice. I don't use a messenger app. I only use the fucking SMS text like back in 2004.

According to another comment here, yes. I never heard of that tho, it's kinda neat.

Fun fact. Hieroglyphs can be written left-to-right or right-to-left. You have to distinguish the direction they should be read by the facing of the animal/creature/human used as a character. They will always "look" towards the beginning of the sentence, so in the depicted case, the intended direction is left-to-right.

Yes, Thanos snaps are multiplicative.

But I think we can establish that objects get eliminated in their entirety and not on an atomic scale, or else the snap should have killed way more than half of the people considering that about half their cells just committed sudoku.

Btw if it worked on an atomic scale:

We assume Thanos only wants to snap the gold that has use for humans. We mined around 210,000 tonnes of gold and known reserves of gold hold another roughly 80,000 tonnes. That makes 290,000 tonnes total. 290,000 tonnes of gold have around 8.87 * 10^32 gold atoms, so Thanos would need to snap on average log_2(8.87*10^32) + 2 = 112 times to eradicate all of that gold.

Note that the total amount of gold on Earth is much larger than that (unknown deposits, deeps in the crust, in the core), but that would get rid of the stuff we actually care about.
