Elon Musk: “I don’t think a lot of people want say Warren Buffet’s job”. Seriously? I thought you knew people mostly did their jobs for pay, because you can buy a lot of horses with Buffet’s yearly income…

We need to strike. And we need to make it happen now.

June 30. Seriously. Call random phone numbers throughout the state. Reason with them, aren’t you tired of all of this Shit happening??? Inflation, gas prices, people in schools dying. We’re fucking tired!!! There’s literally enough people in this sub where if we all called 10, 15 people that we knew and convinced them just enough, they’d spread the word too. Post it on Facebook. Post it on Instagram. I’m sure there’s saavy enough people to set up a sort of community funding/food donation for those who would struggle. It’s at the point where if we continue to do nothing, we’re going to absolutely suffer. Our future as Americans really rests on what we decide to do as a collective during this time. Isn’t there something we could submit to a government branch with our list of demands? 25/hr minimum wage rent control paid family leave universal healthcare/a rollout plan to…

A National Strike is groups of individuals

There's many reasons for a US National Strike right now: Nearly a century of Women's Rights being undone! The Rights of 133 Million LGBTQIA Americans being attacked! Mass Shootings DAILY! Final-Stage Capitalism creating a global hell for everyone! Companies trying to bust Unions & demoralize employees! 100 US Companies polluting the entire planet! Rather than trying to organize all 334 million Americans to Strike, just get small groups of your co-workers, friends and family. The more people out along the streets, holding signs, and picketing government buildings, the movement will grow on its own. Once the nation begins to shut down, the 1% Trillionaires will freak out and order the politicians they own to take our demands seriously! If you want RIGHTS you have to fight for them! ​ (Edit: 40% of human population is LGBTQIAA, its a large spectrum and covers a huge amount of diversity. The LGBTQIAA acronym…

Severance on Apple TV fits this sub perfectly

Not sure if this is allowed here but I just finished the show Severance on Apple TV Plus (because I got it for Prehistoric Planet). The show explores the idea of work-life balance and the absolutely insufferable corporate culture. It feels like a black mirror episode stretched over a full season. I won't go into much more but the show is pretty small right now and deserves the support of communities like this.

I Eat Protein Bricks

I feel like an idiot. My quality of life has been falling drastically over the past few years. I didn't notice how bad my situation was until this morning. Let me explain. The buses in my city are now barely usable. You have to wait an hour to even get on one at this point. The transport workers in my area are always striking and quitting en masse. So now I Uber to work. It feels like I only go to work and back. I don't go anywhere else during the week. I only walk to fun places during the weekend. My job is on fire. My manager got a heart transplant months ago and she still isn't back. Four of the people in my department have quit and now I have to cover for the new people. The best girl in my department got promoted so she doesn't have…

Everybody on LinkedIn be like…

I stopped browsing LinkedIn but every time I’m on there to check if I received any messages from recruiters.. all I see is people smacking each other’s ass like they’re playing football or basketball and congratulating on new jobs/achievements and getting in further with their career. While this is all nice and all but it looks like they’re all just kissing each other’s ass. I could be wrong but that’s how it looks to me…
