Plenty of people will be protesting in Seattle, represent your own city. It may not get as much media coverage, but it can motivate people in your local community and that’s the kind of movement we really need across the country.

Shell and Nestle have committed numerous atrocities against mankind. When your platform suddenly becomes untenable for them to run ads on, the problem is definitely your platform.

Likely 25% of the country is brainwashed and doesn’t give a shit, to an absolute fault. The rest either did the right thing or totally feel like morons at this point. To the latter people, I am willing to forgive if you take to the streets, stand up for what’s right, and do whatever you can to help us get the train back on the tracks.

Schadenfreude is also robbed of its joy when you’re suffering alongside the folks that fucked up.

It is cheaper for them to take the sales loss that comes with raising prices rather than it would be to take any other approach. Austerity and Tariffs make the perfect economic shit sandwich.

It doesn’t help that the tariffs are nonsensical. It’s not even like they’re doing austerity with correctly targeted tariffs. Incredible work, masterful gambit, art of the deal they’re saying.

Once again, Gen X left out of the conversation when they still make up a large percentage of the workforce lol.

Being a millennial in the workplace right now is giving me whiplash. Boomers are essentially the old guard and their ways of running business are going the way of the dodo, though I was brought up in that climate and sort of got used to it. While work environments had a tendency to be toxic, I did find some merits in their approach.

Gen Z is almost like the polar opposite reaction to boomer workplace culture. While I think going away from that is a good thing, I also think there have been overcorrections. The culture clash is noticeable and the fact that the old guard seems to be ignoring it only adds to the challenge.
