why would you WANT to automate one of the most life-affirming acts we can undertake and one of our few balms against entropy and the void of isolation? what is the point of removing the human element from human expression? just make some art, man, it’s good for you, I promise.

this is why US companies want healthcare to be tied to employment: you can use it for strikebreaking

Replying to @TheNewSchool
As announced on Monday, we have made the difficult decision to stop paying wages and premiums for healthcare benefits for employees who are striking. Up to this point, we have continued to compensate our faculty and staff who have chosen to exercise their right to strike.

To everyone saying"idk what this is becaus I didn't grow up in America" I regret to inform you that the Elf on a Shelf is only like 10 years old, and a company is just pretending it's a serious old tradition.

This is such a misinformed take because vitamin toxicity can be dangerous! Too much Vit A = hepatotoxicity Too much Vit D = hypercalcemia Too much B6 = peripheral neuropathy Remember: the dose makes the poison!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but there’s literally no reason why companies that doubled their profits during the pandemic can’t afford to give paid sick leave to the workers who make it all possible.

Many video game industry workers are tired of the status quo, ready to leave behind a culture of sexism, harassment, and mismanagement. This is how the industry is unionizing, compiled into a 54-page zine we've been working on over the past year: polygon.com/23485977/video-g…

Yes, there was an actual successful insurrection in American history—Your social studies teacher probably called it the Compromise of 1877. But while we talk about it in broad terms, most people don’t really understand the backstory of the racial massacre that spawned Jim Crow

Everybody; Coca Cola invented Santa's look in the 1930s! History; Here some pre- 1930s American Santa illustrations. Look familiar? CC managed to cement this look into American (and then global) society with its advertising campaigns, but they didn't invent the look.

"you can write whatever you want! but don't make other people read it!" ..... "make" what transaction you think happens between readers and writers, do you think writers tie readers to a chair and pin their eyes open and force them to read?

The settings are endlessly creative and there's some awesome things you can do with the medium! We're constantly impressed by the creativity involved. RPers *really* have perfected the "icons as a metadata channel about the content of the comment" and it's fascinating.
