Obsidian Musings

Bless you, if you've made it here. This blog is a multifandom mess. Fandoms include 911, The Mandalorian, Critical Role, Dimension 20, The Murderbot Diaries, Leverage, Elementary, Brooklyn Nine Nine, LotR, Firefly, Sailor Moon, and many others. I post A LOT of cute animals and babies, pictures of unfairly attractive celebrities, social justice posts, and pretty things that catch my eye. I REALLY like puns. On Wednesdays, I do No White Dude Wednesdays (NWDW) where I spam my dash with pictures and historical posts of POC and transgender people. Occasionally, I commit podfic. Also, I apparently do fanfiction now. I am also on Twitter and AO3.

Recipes from Portland's famous but long-closed Rheinlander restaurant. This cookbook was produced in a limited window before Chef Mager's death. All of these fucking slap.

For my fellow vegan/vegetarians, these sound scrumptious and look pretty simple to make substitutions!

The lentil soup post is yeah beyond amazing. I know lentil soup doesn't seem like it could be that good. You simply don't Know how beloved the rheinlander lentil soup was. This was a famous soup here.

here’s my #problematic opinion of the day but men talking about how much they’d like to commit violence against women they disagree with is always a sign these men are not committed to politics and instead would like a “moral” justification to abuse women lol

[femcassidy]

and when i phrase it like this, i feel it’s an easy sentiment to agree with. the thing is: this applies to all men and all women. i am not comfortable with leftist men talking at length how they would like to beat radfems. i am not comfortable with leftist men making sexually aggressive jokes about megyn kelly. i am not comfortable with any man making these comments for any broad range of moral justifications & i hate that we’re all willing to give these idiots passes to enact violence because it’s targeted against the proper ideology. it’s not about the ideology! these men just want to scare & harm women!

Apparently Open AI, Alphabet (Google) and Meta, have hidden more than $1.3Trillion in debt. These twenties sure are RAWRing.

AI Companies Are Trying to Hide a Staggering Amount of Debt

AI companies are pouring tens of billions of dollars into enormous data centers. They're being built on top of a mountain of hidden debt.

In the words of Bruce from Finding Nemo "you don't want one of them to pop".

I don't think these companies or investors have an exit strategy, and we're all financially a bit fucked from the financial crisis that comes from the bubble collapsing (if indeed it does, though I am pessimistic).

This is a reminder for those who handmake Christmas presents that now is not too early to start. It may in fact be a good time to start if you have a lot to make/your craft takes a long time. You should maybe start it now, whether that's brainstorming or actually doing the crafts!

Here's a source for the analysis, but it probably is not the source.

Labor share of income hits record low as corporate profits soar

Workers’ share of US economic output has fallen to its lowest level since the government began keeping records in 1947, according to data th

Some points of interest:

Corporate profits are soaring. After taxes, they now take 12.3 percent of national output, far above their postwar average of 7.3 percent.

Adjusted for inflation, hourly wages have risen 3 percent since the end of 2019, Ip noted. Corporate profits over the same period have risen 50 percent.

The Economic Policy Institute calculates that since 1979 the productivity of American workers has grown 90 percent while the pay of the typical worker has grown 33 percent. Had wages tracked output, the average worker would earn $16.40 more an hour today.

The profits are concentrated among the largest corporations. Earnings at the 500 biggest US firms rose 28 percent in the first quarter from a year earlier, the fastest pace since 2021, and their profit margins reached 14.8 percent. The seven technology giants known as the “Magnificent 7”—Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Tesla—grew their profits 63 percent.

In the United States, the richest 1 percent of households hold 31.7 percent of all wealth. The bottom half hold barely 2.5 percent.
