The gender identity of your work places energy is not the damn problem. Raise the damn pay. People will work in a sewer if you paid enough.
Blocked from posting on lopsided posts. The system wants to demonize half the population and infantilize the other. I’ll post when it draws a crowd. Why waste the forums I’m not blocked from. Uncomfortable truths are free.

In the current landscape of the distro wars, admitting you just jumped sides is grounds to call forth the raiders from your old distro, they know the distro specific vulnerabilities and will unleash a fury of which you have never seen. The first sign will be a blinking hard drive light…
This is definitely in my top 10 reasons to be single in January. I’d also throw my shoe, but I have weird feet and it costs a lot to replace them, and once you touch it, The pinworms have it.
I was all for the fire when it was taking the homes of people that have never lost everything, and had regularly taken everything from others(palisades), but there’s poor people that barely have living situations having that taken from them, and people that genuinely earned everything they have(Mel Gibson, hate him or love him he started poor), it’s unfortunate to see people losing everything they had picked out to make themselves at home. Even tho it’s actually pretty cool to say “relieved of my physical belongings”, and irresponsible to say an animal dewormed definitively cured cancer when it truly could have created a genuine placebo effect and their body curied cancer. Bodies cure cancer all the time. It wouldn’t be a stretch to assume a placebo effect stirred a persons own immune system to cure a nasty bout if it wasn’t already weakened by radiation treatment. Not out of the realm of possibility, but unfortunately not very reproducible… But I digress, the people that are working, and or earned already everything they have is a definitive tragedy. I understand not caring about the Hollywood 1%, but the poor, once it reaches their door step it’s everybody’s problem. Cuz if they let it happen to them, they will let it happen to you, an me.
This will continue to happen until someone bigger than the US gov steps up to bat and drops feds on their asses in a pile when they try to arrest them. The day is coming, I’m looking forward to the news reports of federal officers being carried unconscious onto either a grassy area, or just a pile in front of the building, and being told if they try again they die. I want to see feds crying like the little bitches they are…
Not guilty of a crime as stated by a jury of his peers. Has the legal ramification of nullifying laws that a jury says are unjust. It is literally THE last bastion of hope US citizens have for undoing criminal laws.
I love how people act like their knowledge alone somehow makes them better than their peers, just utilizing knowledge to appear aloof, or above it all, when in reality, if capitalism shot itself in the chest and socialism took over tomorrow, we would still have the same rich 1% families stealing from the working class and none of us would actually be in any better a position because no damned political system to date has figured out how to keep the rich from sacrificing the poor for their own selfish ends. End of story. Time to change.
A fairly large percentage of straight people definitely have mental illness. Likely the same ones that will be saying the same thing about gay/trans.
The timeline IS fragile, but the whole of existence is not in regards to time travel. If you go into the past and change it, the timeline changes, but only because the original timeline had you going back and changing it. You can see yourself. You can interact with yourself, but if everything is exactly as it should be you really don’t want to go mucking around and find yourself in a world where the south lost the civil war but things are thousands of times worse and you killed the ancesotor of the inventor of time travel after breaking your machine and can no longer access the timeline to fix any issues you may have caused.
Only 1 timeline matters. You’re own. Everything else becomes fluid around your timeline when you time travel.
Wormholes. Travel some place faster than light and see light from the past from your source of travel when you arrive, travel again back to your original spot and theoretically you travel backwards in time to before the light from the past that you just saw was even produced yet. Might work the same for just seeing the future if you glimpse through a wormhole that leads to someplace in the future by doing an Allie oop to further into the future someplace far away, then back to someplace in your future but your destinations past. Speed and gravity both impact time. A wormhole fits that description to a T.
Dudes mommy is out telling people to work, and his wide ass is claiming we need more h1-b Visa’s because there’s not enough engineers. There’s plenty of engineers, they didn’t pay us enough, so we walked the hell out, now Mr republican golden immigrant is saying to fix their shitty mistake, we need more immigrants. These fuck faces will do literally ANYTHING other than pay a fair wage based against cost of living. Musk deserves the Gaddafi treatment… 100%. If rent is 2k a month, that’s 24k a yr, after taxes, making $25 an hour, you bring home around 35k, that leaves 11k for food, car payments (cuz you can’t afford to live within walking distance of anything), gas, clothing, insurance, appliances, maintenance, and emergencies. The problem isn’t “there’s no engineers” the problem is greedy oligarchs that don’t see a problem with you having 0 social mobility.
Ya know what’s extremely alarming? Children dying of preventable causes because an insurance exec and their board want more profit. What’s not alarming? A CEO became another statistic.
Judges be selling kids for cash, b-tards be dressed up in clown outfits on the side of the airplane taxiway for highend clients flippin a “kids4cash” sign. The report could say “corrupt” and nothing else, and all that would happen is people go “yup I’m voten for k dawg, or trumpssiah” and “those kids likely shouldn’t have been born anyways, they are lucky to have gotten as far as they did before having their lives ruined” Shits cor-rupt from the ground up.
It would be hilarious if trump did things that actually worked and became extremely well beloved by people because of it. Taking steps to reduce overhead to impact costs of doing business such as shop front rental coat’s. If you cause healthy deflation, you reduce cost of construction materials, and rental costs, this directly impacts small businesses that will pass the savings on to their customers. This impacts prices more than tax cuts ever will. Taxes can only be reduced so much, prices can drop to rock bottom prices increasing your spending power to the point manufacturing has to kick up to keep up with demand! Just make everyone pay the same tax percentage. I have no money left over by the time my next paycheck hits typically, I pay 30%, if my job is required to keep the business running, the economy running, and to keep the work moving, then I am just as important as the CEO that decides what work the corporation will be doing. They should be paying 30% too. This is physics 101 if you need 3 gears to run a watch, then no gear is more important than any other because it won’t run without just 1 of any of the gears! In terms of our government why is the biggest gears not providing the same input into the system? This is one thing that will stop it from ever being fixed. Reducing the load on the bigger gears and leaving it to the smaller gears messes up any geared system. You want even load across your entire machine. Until everyone is (apparently) forced to be a functioning member, this machine is going to keep having serious failures.
It’s funny at this point. Either the rich pay their share or we Mangione them. Tick tock musky. Tik fuckin tok.
Many things people find despicable are common place in the fog of war. I will never agree with gunning down a poor person no matter what they did, justice is served for the poor daily on a cold lead plate. For the 1%??? Who can we call when insurance kills our loved ones? When Dr’s make intentional mistakes and your loved one is dead? Can you call the police and expect them to go snorkeling to find evidence? Or can you maybe expect a call in a few weeks with a maybe update? We have seen how they respond when one of their masters is murdered. Until there is actual justice for all citizens, there will be no peace. Eat the rich.
You know what scares the hell out of corporations? People like me. We replace the wonky rubber harmonic balancers with aluminum ones, we replace phone batteries using a heat gun to remove the screen, we replace capacitors in 90’s era Walmart CD players because it still works. We are the anti consumers. We fix what you throw away. We will build our future golden city with the refuse from your broken appliances. We are the future and it terrifies the consumer corporations.
Oligarchy, like when Nancy pelosi sets herself up as a defacto leader using insider trading… Or is it only oligarchy when the Republicans do it?
