There was a candle factory in Mayfield, KY that was hit by a tornado a few years ago. Management had made the production workers stay during the storm, threatening them with being fired if they left.

The factory, a building of corrugated sheet metal, was destroyed by the tornado. Several workers were killed. The rest were fired.

I hope that no one in Florida sticks around for some shitty job until the hurricane hits.

That was a Biden campaign promise in 2020- that nothing would fundamentally change. Why shouldn't we believe that? It's the only campaign promise that he's delivered on.

I've had NBC on as background noise this weekend while working on schoolwork, and they are going hard on the Corbyn strategy against the protestors at Columbus and other universities. So far, it hasn't seemed to stick against broader protests and opposition to the genocide, so I wonder why it's the angle they're taking now, and why it overall hasn't been effective to undercut opposition to Israel, when it was an effective smear against Corbyn.

Less than zero research went into this heap of word salad. It's an essay of anticommunist vibes.

Advanced economies innovate and make things like NFTs and self-driving ~~random incendiary devices~~ luxury electric cars! so-true

Old, busted economies like China just produce things like buildings, most manufactured products, scientific research, and agricultural products 🤮
