I was waiting to hear the whole album before I chose one to sing & @yelyahwilliams really did save the best for last. I cried & had it on repeat yesterday & quickly bashed this out today. Thank you for a beautiful album that's been amazingly crafted. So proud. #PetalsForArmor – at Glasgow, Scotland
I am gobsmacked. I NEVER thought we would wake up to that from America! Holy hell, the people are pisssssed and rightly so.
Hell YES.

Canva is laying off 22% of its workforce which is 1271 employees, and this is what their CEO said.
We need more founders like thissss.

Karl Marx was right. He warned us that capitalism would result in a dictatorship of the super rich. Look at our lives now. The super rich are controlling everything, but they are never on the ballot paper.

Actually, different salaries should only affect how luxurious your life is, not your food quality or ability to afford rent. If you work 40 hours at any job, your income should be enough to live in the town you work in. Thinking otherwise is an abysmal indicator of your humanity

Quiero que sepáis que todo esto empezó porque cuando un grupo de chavales protestó por tener ratas y goteras en su instituto, la policía respondió reventándole la boca a uno, mutilandole la mano a otro y ahogando a otro.
La represión ha sido brutal y ha encontrado respuesta.
Des véhicules de police sont prises pour cible par la foule dans le secteur République à Paris.

I think we’re entering an era where poverty doesn’t always look like unemployment.
You can have a job.A university degree.A smartphone.Internet access.A respectable salary.And still be one unexpected expense away from financial trouble. You work, but can’t afford a home. You earn, but struggle to save. You have qualifications, but no financial security. At what point do we acknowledge that having employment and escaping poverty are no longer necessarily the same thing?

Estou FARTA do “não façam ferias, não vão a concertos, não comprem iPhones, não jantem fora”. Mas que merda de vida é que vocês querem ter? 9 to 5 sem descanso ou pequenos prazeres para poder ter o direito a ter onde viver? É isto uma vida? Trabalhar para dormir?

Most people in France can't afford housing.
They didn't blame immigrants, or transgender people, or video games, or avocado toast.
They blame the government. Because that's who's responsible. That's always who's responsible.

Labour vetoed a £1.5 billion wind farm factory in Scotland to avoid aligning with the SNP. 🤪🔫
"My message to John is simple, I want to push economic power out into the regions of Scotland, do you?"
Andy Burnham challenges Scotland's First Minister John Swinney to "push power" out from Westminster and Holyrood "into the hands of local people"

I DO NOT understand what billionaires think the final outcome of all this would be. If nobody has a living wage, they CANNOT buy your products, pay for your services or rent the properties being owned and hoarded. At that point, does the whole thing not just collapse?

I really hate the “no person who works a full-time job should live in poverty” discourse. It should simply be that nobody deserves to live in poverty. We have to let go of the idea that we work in exchange for our worth. People are innately worthy and deserving of the basics.
