in these troubling times of great stress and great uncertainty, I urge all my friends on here to remember that the most important thing we can do in our day to day is to be nice to me in particular

CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

I told my friend I wasn’t sure if I hated myself enough to finish my doctorate and he said “think of it as committing to the bit”

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

One of the great paradoxes of life is that everyone who thinks they’re bad at their job has imposter syndrome, and everyone who thinks they have imposter syndrome is actually really bad at their job

I can’t stand when we omm in a yoga class and some pick me has to harmonize a major third above and make a little chordy chord out of it. Many of us have done choir in high school! We just don’t feel the need to make everything about ourselves!

This fb copypasta is ironic bc not only is it saying your worth is inherently tied to your product value, but it’s also admitting the easiest way to increase that value is by inflating it with artificial bottlenecks and price gouging instead of improving anything material about yourself 😍

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

You know what would actually reduce crime and homelessness? Universal healthcare, free education, affordable housing and a basic living wage. When people have their most basic needs met, they have happier and healthier lives. Those hoarding the wealth don’t want to give us those things.

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

I don't think NYT should know peace until they divulge the full chain of decision making that led to the laundering of Nazi propaganda against a leading anti-fascist politician the same day fascism was codified in Congress.

When a government claims to save money by betraying its citizens, cutting health and welfare research, and deepening inequality, it is not saving — it is building a system where only the wealthy access care. This undermines the very purpose of a nation.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare. 👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

I care about a church organist’s opinion on vibrato about as much as an oboist cares about my opinion on how they make their reeds, or how a lutenist strings their theorbo. Which is to say, not at all, because I don’t even know how to use their equipment, much less form an opinion worth saying aloud

From what I can tell, when the economy is good, rich people feel great. And when the economy is bad, rich people pretend to be struggling.

No matter your station in life, there is astoundingly little separating you from those men in that cage behind Kristi Noem. No charges, no attorneys, no hearings, no trial. Just conjecture and brute force could be enough to justify completely dehumanizing you, too.

The ideal friend catch up is the one where both parties are desperately trying to punt the conversational focus back onto the other one. The “hot potato catch up”
