“The house I built out of shit smells like shit and it’s disgusting what they did to me.”

My Shakespeare teacher in college called it a concordance when we studied Macbeth. There was a full concordance and then concordances for each speaking part. Pretty fascinating stuff.

You mean like…uh…defying historical precedent.

“defy history”

To be fair, regular journalists don’t understand journalism anymore, either.

Well, buttflapper…

Capitalism filters sociopaths to the top. It’s a feature, not a bug. It has always been this way. Read about Henry Ford and JD Rockefeller, John Kellog. The list goes on.

Did CNN let Tapper have his spine back?

Sounds more like a MAGA. Bots are smarter.

The levels of irony here are off the fucking charts.

I’ve noticed an uptick in right-wing trolling lately.

Imagine being a twitter user.

My employer has been intentionally creating a toxic workplace to drive attrition. Several upper managers have said the quiet part out loud in candid AMAs with staff. The top management still sends out uncanny valley soulless-smile emails saying RTO is better for everyone, but it’s another excuse to drive layoffs based on location and proximity to an office. I do not interact with a single individual outside of Teams/Zoom on any given day. I honestly think the execs are looting the coffers before the company tanks like investment bankers did to Toys R Us and now Red Lobster. They can make a ton of money and move on to the next ripe fruit.

It’s so satisfying to slide this thing forcefully onto your pole OVER and OVER again, slamming it against the base.

Powerful. Trump will surely be the savior of Palestine.

I’ve seen a sudden upsurge of promoted videos in the last week or two championing trickle-down economics in my youtube suggested video feed. I thought it was odd. They don’t use the term trickle-down economics, but they promote the rich as job creators and use all the Reagan talking points. Based on the comments, lots of people are eating it up as amazing insight.

Some companies are doing it to create a hostile workplace to increase attrition. If an employee quits, they don’t have to pay unemployment or severance. Other companies have huge investments in corporate real estate. They have been sitting on short-term loans that are coming due. The property owners are keeping their real-estate values artificially high, but to one wants to rent/lease them, so they aren’t as valuable as in practice as they look on paper. Some companies get tax breaks from cities to put their offices there and will not continue to reap those rewards if their workers are not coming into the city. Don’t let them gaslight you about culture or face time because that has all been debunked. A lot of remote workers are coming in to the office and sitting on Zoom/Teams calls in their cubicles.

If only they could issue a stern warning, too! I’m sure he’ll stop once he realizes he made a legal faux pas!

Rig the courts? Impossible!

Jamaica?

It was not misleading. It was a lie.
