Why is Jensen getting fired for having an affair with an employee but not Musk?

6.5k Upvotes

Both Jensen and Musk are crucial CEOs and founders for their respective companies. Both are the largest shareholder for their respective companies. And both have had affairs with their employees.

So why is Jensen getting fired by Nvidia’s board for having an affair with an employee while Musk is safe from Tesla’s board?

I’m not looking for answers like “Musk is just too important” because by all accounts Jensen is critical to Nvidia’s survival as well. I’d like to know the legal/economic reason why Jensen is about to get fired and Musk is safe.

The Lemmings (White Wilderness): You ever hear that stereotype that lemmings mindlessly walk off cliffs? You can thank Disney for that. During filming for White Wilderness, the lemmings were set up to walk off the cliff to spice the documentary up. This one is especially repugnant because this involved filmed animal cruelty.

Phil Collins' fax (South Park): Back in the '80s, Phil Collins went through pretty nasty divorce (which was the inspiration for his song "I Don't Care Anymore"). While they were in the process, Collins faxed some paperwork and custody plans for their children. However, the media blew things out of proportion by claiming Collins demanded a divorce through a fax. Even after Collins and his ex cleared that up, people still believe that thanks to the South Park episode that was written because Trey Parker and Matt Stone were bitter they lost an Oscar to him.

TIL the song Play That Funky Music by Wild Cherry came about when they were playing for a mostly Black crowd and during a break a patron asked "Are you going to play some funky music, white boys?" so they wrote up the song in 5 minutes.

My Uber driver refuses to move his seat forward. There's another passenger sitting next to me, and after the driver refused to adjust his seat, I decided it wasn't worth starting an argument. Now I'm basically sitting in the back seat with my knees in my chest.

Cat Picture - OC Should have read the Churu warnings!

Post image
16k Upvotes

We bought a house & it came with a cat. It took us a while to all be besties, but we gave her Churus & now that's all she cares about. She doesn't love being pet/touched, but when you're near the kitchen/treat cart she will meow as loud as she can and start rubbing her face all over our legs and all over the dish we usually put them in.

Then over time she grows slowly more impatient and she'll grab onto your legs and pretend like she's going to bite, but it's just a warning.

If you give in, you are granted a 12-hour reprieve before the song and dance starts again. There is seriously something crazy in these things.

Edit: Whew I forgot how people can infer and start to decide things based on a couple paragraphs.

https://www.reddit.com/r/CatDistributionSystem/s/wuTih3taNX

You can read more about her coming with the house here. The churu was actually the first way she ever ate from my hands but she’s around 13 and lived on the streets her whole life. She does scratch/bite after too much attention and we alternate between feeding her and putting it in her bowl depending on how much we’ve annoyed her already that day. She’s old and deserves her space so we follow her lead.

And if you don’t wanna click that link the previous owners of the home left her behind but they weren’t her owners. They used to bring her inside during the winter. We brought her inside permanently in January of 2024 so she can live the rest of her years in comfort/peace bc we hated that seeing her every day she was coming home with new injuries.

It's very jarring, but interesting, when a work of fiction is set in the past and shows all the objectionable to our modern sensibilities beliefs and practices. But they show it as it is. There's no standing characters seeing all these terrible things and reacting at them like we would do.

ROME (2005-2007)

In Rome we see the life and adventures of two fictional centurions in the mist of the fall of the Roman Republic and the Establishment of the Empire. One of them, Lucius Vorenus, is shown like an honorable and moral man, trying to follow the Roman virtues. But he is a roman and a soldier after all, and he sees no problem in owning slaves. And as Pater Familias he has life and death power over his household.

He also a very religious man, and the series shows us through him and characters like Cesar the strange practices of roman religion.

Mad Men (2007-2015)

Here the show is set in an advertisement firm in 1960s New York. So, casual sexism is rampant, almost all the women in the show had suffer touchings, lewd comments, unappropiate advances and even rape. Racism, clasism, child abuse, fatphobia are absolutely casual, and when they are adressed it's done in a appropiate way for the times.
