BERLIN, GERMANY DECEMBER 01: SpaceX owner and Tesla CEO Elon Musk arrives on the red carpet for the ... Axel Springer Award 2020 on December 01, 2020 in Berlin, Germany. (Photo by Britta Pedersen-Pool/Getty Images) Getty Images If there is one thing we can count on during the year, it is Elon Musk tweeting out random thoughts. He is often entertaining and not afraid to speak his mind, even when it gets him into trouble. Looking back, these are his top tweets of the year. 1. You can buy a Tesla with Bitcoin (or not) Musk tweeted on May 24 that you can buy a Tesla with the popular cryptocurrency, but later changed his plans after social media users objected. 2. The infamous toilet tweet Musk made a bold statement in November, suggesting he is tweeting from the toilet. That’s a big T.M.I. for all of us, but also a revelation that surprises no one. 3. A strange crypto proclamation It’s one thing to sing the praises of an emerging (and slightly sarcastic) cryptocurrency, but fans went nuts when he announced Tesla would accept Dogecoin for merch. 4. A sudden career change Musk likes to make wry jokes. Some…

Hissrich discussed how The Witcher handled the introduction of Eskel, and why they decided to do things differently.“Let's talk about Eskel,” she said. “One of my favorite moments on screen is when Geralt first hugs Eskel.

If you did, the IRS says to make sure you report it on your taxes.  Those provisions went viral Monday following a tweet alerting taxpayers to those somewhat surprising requirements to note the value of your ill-gotten gains. "Tax szn is around the corner," read the tweet from @litcapital. "Remember to report your income from illegal activities and stolen property to the IRS."The requirements can be found at IRS.gov amid other missives to report income earned from jobs in the gig economy and what to do about taxable alimony payments. "If you steal property, you must report its fair market value in your income in the year you steal it unless you return it to its rightful owner in the same year,"' read the provision for stolen property.What if you're dealing drugs or caught up in other crimes?In that case, the IRS publication says jot your earnings on line 8z, Schedule 1 of your 1040 form, "or on schedule C ... if from your self-employment activity."if i steal a bunch of tvs from walmart and a homeless man steals them from me can i write that off as a loss?— Tommy Bojanin (@_bojanin) December…

It was called the Green Book. It helped people in the Black community find safe places to eat and stay overnight when they had to travel during the Jim Crow Era. Now, 55 years later, an online space is vastly emerging into what one researcher is calling its modern-day version.“It’s an open secret,” said Shamika Klassen, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Colorado Boulder.Here in the space known as Black Twitter, its users share tips, history, places, common experiences and everything in between. Black Twitter is not a separate social media platform, but part of Twitter, where users participate through hashtags like #BlackOwnedBusinesses, #BlackTech and even #CovidWhileBlack.“Sometimes a good search is not enough, an artifact or archive search is not enough, so I have to jump on Black Twitter,” said historian Erica Buddington.When she’s not searching Black Twitter for work-related resources, she’s tweeting long threads about Black History.Klassen says Black Twitter has played a critical role in recent years during the pandemic and racial unrest. Hashtags like #WhileBlack and #BlackLivesMatter have helped expose more encounters of racism and provide a virtual connection to the community that didn’t exist before the social media age.To prove just how resourceful Black Twitter…

Logan Paul has once again upset the internet with his latest antics. A long-time Pokémon fan, Paul has often taken to social media to share his love for the trading card game whether it is through box break reveals or showing off his $1 million USD gem mint 10-graded Pokémon Charizard. Now, the older of the Paul brothers finds himself in hot water from Pokémon fans after posting a video to his Twitter that showed him completing his “first epoxy resin project.” The DIY project sees the YouTuber douse 15 Game Boy Colors in resin just to make a tabletop. Being that these devices are now considered collectible gaming consoles, his video sparked outrage from the vintage collector community. Amongst those who criticized Paul was Bob Wulff, a fellow YouTuber. Many others were quick to point out that Paul has deliberately ruined historical pieces and that some were considered to be limited editions. While it is likely that Paul spent thousands procuring some of these Game Boys, the community does not appear to be outraged by the cost but rather how he has chosen to use them as opposed to preserving them for value. Take a look at his DIY…
