Exactly. If it didn't pay off these companies wouldn't keep shoveling money to Facebook and Google to show their ads time and time again. Marketing is expensive. If it didn't at least break even then nobody would be doing it anymore by now. Obviously it works, otherwise I wouldn't ever know what the fuck a squarespace or a goddamn raid shadow legends is.

I was trying to point out how an act can be innocent in one context like your example of kissing your brother's newborn on the forehead can be sexual in another context. Like kissing your female subordinate on the lips while holding her head with both hands. I'm baffled that you're consistently missing the point here.
Sure because I changed my baby sister's diaper this one time when she was 3 months old so it's totally okay to pull down my coworkers pants and run a wet wipe down their asscrack in front of everybody. I normally don't like butts, let alone wiping them down but you see she just landed a major contract for our company and I was overcome with joy.
I wonder what your experience with mercenaries is.
One time I went to a bar in Mallorca, asked "dos cervezas, por favor" and the guy went: "Was? Zwei bier??"
It was surreal to realise that nobody there actually spoke any Spanish. Outside of the tourist traps Mallorca still has some authenticity here and there but it's like the locals just hide in the shadows for the most part.
Exactly, Covid is a variant of a pretty well known class of virusses. The research on mRNA vaccines was pretty advanced as far as I gathered but testing them in trials isn't something you can easily do. There's a lot of hoops to jump through to justify trials with human subjects. When the burden of disease isn't very impactful it's hard to justify trials. Once covid came screeching around the corner suddenly the justification was easy to argue.
Sure but then they'd also need to calculate the risk of Musk or X exposing the lie that X is allowing pro-nazi content. If it's such an obvious lie for the exposure in the media then there's a massive risk of being called out and exposed. The bottom line is X loses revenue and credibility due to this article and now has a huge incentive to blow the lid off this supposed conspiracy to paint X as a bastion of hate. I don't think two big companies would roll the dice on that at the same time as losing their investment by ending this ad campaign early.
It would block it all the same if they parked in the spot. Assuming this person is handicapped themselves they must've figured "either I block the entire parking spot for everybody, or I block it only for those that need the loading bay area for a wheelchair lift."
I honestly think it's meant to be courteous and it does work out that way for some if this person's only alternative is to take up the whole space.
