Trump paying a $3 million lawyer retainer fee — maybe the biggest he's ever paid — shows he knows how much legal trouble he's in, NYT reporter says. Beer for Mueller!

I wanted to raise awareness on a subject overlooked since the beginning of COVID in March 2020. That topic is the lack of understanding about the increased levels of kidney stones by tens of thousands of individuals in various organizations. It is of extreme importance that more and more places offer public restrooms. People need to avoid having kidney stones. It’s simply not healthy. The purpose of this conversation is quite simple. A man in uniform and gear can easily pee standing up, alas, a woman cannot just pee or take a shit just about anywhere, I mean, do you know how hard it is to get out of these clothes when you’re wearing a full gear? I’d like to inform TechCrunch for the creation of a new startup, and they don’t have to wait until the next TechCrunch Disrupt. It could be the next Uber. That is, a facility that has just a shower/bathroom. That’s it. I think they have those in Japan. After it is used, maybe a robot could clean the facility. It needs to have a design that is mass produced on a nation-wide or world-wide scale. People need to shower. People need to take a piss. People need to take a shit. If you have the means to create such startup, get right to work. Thank you.

Until Next Time!
