I am an opossum. I may look scary, but I mean you no harm. Now with biofluorescence. I think COVID vaccines so far, but I'm starting to lose count. I still mask in indoor public places.

Trump: I like to kill puppies.

Audience, composed entirely of convicted puppy killers : applause

Trump: If reelected, I will kill all the puppies.

Audience, all wearing "death to puppies" tshirts: applause intensifies

CNN: this is unbiased journalism lol

@lowqualityfacts I do not believe this is a low-quality fact. It might be a sad and low-quality truth but that's different.

From 1978 to 2021, CEO pay grew by 1,460% while the typical worker's pay rose just 18%.

This explosion in CEO pay relative to the pay of average workers isn’t because CEOs have become so much more valuable than before.

They've just gamed the system to line their pockets.

@rbreich @inequalitymedia Increasingly I feel like all the New Deal and Progressive Era regulations just served to give us a false security in our institutions, one that the GOP and corporations have exploited shamelessly.

It's funny how the tech adjacent scandals like fyre festival, theranos, wework shocked folk en masse because it's the same stupid shit that goes on routinely in software startups but in those cases it was applied to actual stuff out in the world beyond the computers lolol

@sue That is exactly the problem. Actual stuff out in the world has to actually work.
