@erikkain It’s about control. ESG was introduced with good intentions, but the concern is what it could become. Now, corporations risk losing funding if they don’t comply. This might just be a test to see how far that power can go and how much influence they can get away with. Yea sus
@elonmusk Could you look into ESG and consider reforming or dismantling it? It’s given financial institutions too much power to shape society. While it may have started with good intentions, I worry it was designed to pave the way for greater control in the future.
@erikkain ESG started with good intentions, but it needs scrutiny. There’s a risk of it giving a select few excessive power to shape what we consume, influence how we think, and push political agendas. If unchecked, it could lead to an ideological monopoly.
@erikkain Studios are having to play the ESG game. Large financial institutions are dictating what they have to put in their games to be able to get funding. You play the game you get more favorable terms and secure a cash injection.
@QuestPerpetual@liz_churchill10 polio vaccine, they were supposedly using infected chimps to cultivate the vaccines before they were distributed for testing in Africa. They argued against the theory at the Royal Society of London where the whole scientific world called it a conspiracy theory (sound familiar)
@WestHamSocial first half against spurs WH looked decent, and a lot of the games the football has been better than it was under Moyes. Maybe he needs a new defensive coach to work under him to tighten up the back. I’d like to see Summerville and Soler starting, maybe kudus as striker when back
@TheStarman923 @PicturesFoIder Have a friend who turned flat earther about 5 years ago. It’s like he has been brainwashed, it’s all he talks about. Keeps saying how he is now some kind of expert in physics which is quite ironic as they don’t even believe gravity is real
@erikkain It’s just bad writing. Galadriel jumping off a cliff and surviving took the biscuit. Arondir who we thought was dead or at least badly injured pops up the very next episode without a scratch. Durin having a brother who they have failed to introduce in over 18 hours of screenplay
@erikkain The latest episode of RoP has got to be the worst yet!!! Can’t wait to see what you say about it. Galadriel character assassination continues, Annatar popping round the corner to get a bag of Mithril, and I think we have the kraken from clash of the titans making an appearance
@erikkain Would have liked if they had established the 9 men and their kingdoms who are supposed to get the rings by now. Who’s getting them the Southrons, or are they just going to pop up from no where with no backstory whatsoever.
@erikkain All they had to do is follow the timeline in the appendices and fill in the gaps. But they choose to ignore most of what was in them and make up their own story in totally the wrong order what was the point of buying the rights. Cheaper just ask to use the title
@The_Toh_Tohs@ChuckCallesto Comment makes no sense. The company isn’t paying the worker more just because the overtime is tax-free. The pay remains the same regardless; it simply means the government won’t tax the earnings from hours worked beyond 40. This change only affects tax, not what the company pays.
@LostHistory9 It’s like a LoTR bingo card the amount of member berries they’re trying to squeeze into each episode. We’ve had the dead marshes, baby Sheldob, barrow downs and wights, Tom and old man willow, ent wives, and an eagle for no reason whatsoever. None of it seems to be story related
@erikkain@Forbes Really bad show, just seems they’re trying to fit as many memberries as possible. We have had baby Shelob, the dead marshes (were created after the war with Sauron) ents, the barrow downs and wights (which shouldn’t be there till much later when Cardolan falls), Tom bombadil etc
