I really like Guns n Roses songs, but fuck Axel Rose

I “increment the progress” of my tasks. Completion is optional

I’m secretly hoping that AI takes out banking jobs and VC first, just so that that the moneylickers have to confront their new reality of who they are without it

Thank you!

Okay I feel like I’m missing out on a good joke here, please explain

My mum used to do this, but I wised up to it and she changed tactics. Now as an adult man, she says “Help me cut the grass. Make the time. Don’t be a pussy.”

Triggers me into reminding myself I’m not a kid. Goddammit

agreed, but the result seems to be the same: stronger worker rights to countries hostile/unappealing to migrants

I am a leftist, I absolutely believe that the working class should have stronger rights, and that union action is the best path forward to keep the capitalists in check…

…I’ve just seen this fail too many times to be called a viable path, because the capitalists can simply hire cheaper labor.

Germany has strong unions. Germany is also a very racist country. I know how this sounds, but I think there is correlation.

As Wholefoods put it

Data collected in the heat map suggest that stores with low racial and ethnic diversity, especially those located in poor communities, are more likely to unionize.

upvoted because there’s an implication in the main post that the worker who blames migrant inflow as a race issue

• The government is not going to curb the capitalists hiring methods
• Unions are hard work and not guaranteed to have results
• Electing a government tough on migrant work is the easiest path

Edit: will this have a knockon effect on other facets of the economy (cheaper services: car repair, retail, landscaping, etc.), oh absolutely, but this was the path available to you

I love love this time of year. The air is crisp, the sky is clear, I can bundle a blanket on my bed and snuggle under the covers with a good book, and everyone’s just enjoying the silence before all the shit hits the fan before the holidays.
