all the people who make things operate should get paid a fuckin living wage
Agreed. Unfortunately, it's just not going to happen in America. This entire country is founded on the principle of extracting as much value from labor as possible without compensating them fairly.
Sadly, it is not.
Democrats could have implemented a universal health care system under Obama, but chose not to. They, as much as Republicans, are profiting from the price gouging in our health care system.
Thank you for adding information to my post. Have a nice evening.
Headlines like this are a good reminder of my prime directive: Don't donate money to political parties. Both Harris and Trump have billionaires in their corner and they don't need your money.
Instead, donate to your friends' mutual aid requests or invest it in your own stocks and investments. These candidates aren't going to do anything meaningful to change your station in life, but they will make a trillion dollars appear out of thin air overnight to avoid a major drop in the stock market and your $10-$20 could mean the difference between skipping a day of food and eating for someone you know and love.
I spent twelve years in a support job I hated, but I learned every new thing I possibly could, and being able to create things that did the jobs of two-to-three people got me the job I have now, which I love.
So my advice is to say yes any time new technology is introduced and learn how to use it. Any time you feel like something takes to long, go online and research ways to simplify it and find fixes.
That work can and does pay off. People will see it.
Also, if a job is making your life hard, be more willing to change than I was. I'm glad things turned out well for me, but being in a job that stressed me so much could have created real health problems over time.
Yup, and this is what every single protest needs to be doing.
You can be nonviolent, but if you want change, there has to be a very real threat to the status quo.
Depends on the country, but the more important point is universal: adopt a defensive mindset and the means to fulfill it.
Please do not spread misinformation in order to entertain yourself.
Solid possibility.
Yes, probably, but I want to think in my mind that it was something super chaotic and daring, like a furry super-villain.
I wonder what Max did to get banished from the library.
Acquire some means of personal defense, also.
Mace, stun gun, etc. I carry a pocket stun gun because in my city there is occasionally violence on the public bus.
This is the picture I like to show artists when they hate their stuff after a single layer of work, because I hate all of my stuff after a single layer of work, but it's important to remember it's a process.
Agreed.
Maybe the best thing about how awful the last two presidents have been for working people is that unions had to become stronger and more aggressive by necessity, and they did.
