FTSE 100 CEO gets more in less than 3 days than average worker pay for a yr. Median CEO pay £4.22m, 113 times average worker. Nothing to do with performance. Shareholder objections ignored. Need worker-elected directors on boards. Let workers vote on exec pay. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

If we're dm'ing that's great. I will not be responding to any new dms again, so don't dm me, if you're a new BS, person. I'm not here for love, sex or any other thing. I'm here for one reason, my displeasure of OldDONz, MAGA. We can be friends. That's it! Sorry, dms are closed!!!

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.

Every time I read a retrospective on COVID I remember the early days, when people published commentaries about the 1918 flu pandemic, how it was SO WEIRD that that whole thing just got memory-holed, how did that happen so many people died? Covid now has >20 million. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

Let's talk about the way transmascs and transfems have been treated in putatively feminist and, for lack of a better term, "female-centered" spaces. Because I'm seeing a troubling trend of history being rewritten before our very eyes in order to prop up some rather questionable rhetoric.

Chapter 5 “On Tyranny” @timothysnyder.bsky.social is for all to remember the obligations of professions. Doctors-Hippocratic Oath to refrain from causing harm or hurt, to prescribe only beneficial treatments. Lawyers-Oath to uphold the Constitution. Police, firemen too We need to hold them to this.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago. In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists. Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.
