Queer. Sapphic. 37. Owner of @live-laugh-love-lupone. Morally wtf? Mentally unwell? Queer devotion that borders on mutual destruction? They're mine.

btw if they were writing/filming poi now, they would probably have to acknowledge the current state of ai affairs. but I like to think that it would be like a 5 minute mention. the machine just eats chatgpt for breakfast one day because she's tired of the garbage data that comes out of it. finch buys all of the openais. the agi apocalypse is still on, but with less slop.

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.

If a fandom is split by non-Black people going "well, I still think it's a good story" and Black people being horrified and disgusted. Well.

[cock-holliday]

We have got to stop framing our oppression in ways that promote the idea that other people cannot relate to our struggles. Not only does it isolate comrades in the struggle, it actively diminishes recognition of other struggles--often including those even more horrific than what we are at risk of. And this happens especially between Gay and Black struggles.

"when have straight people ever had to check what states were safe for them?" Sundown towns are still a thing. Starlight tours. What states have abortion access? What states have open carry? What states have stand your ground? What states have 3-strike rules? Women, people of color, disabled people, immigrants, and more have had to be abundantly cautious where they travel to. Straight trans people have much more travel risk right now than gay cis people.

It's a new iteration of the same tired question: "imagine if straight people weren't allowed to marry" interracial marriage in the US is younger than my parents. We disgrace people of color by forgetting their history and contemporary struggles, and we abandon queer people of color, Black queer people, by segmenting their overlapping fights.

Well, I wasn't expecting the Star Trek novels to establish that the process of creating a Borg Queen involves transitioning a drone by giving them a bunch of estrogen...All the Borg Queens are trans girls, and I'm here for it!

[quasi-normalcy]

Which novel is this?

[sleepynaltorian]

A TNG novel called "Resistance" by J.M. Dillard. It's set after the movies and also Voyager, so the borg are rebuilding after what Janeway did in endgame. You don't need to read the other books to understand what's happening in the story.

physicists: think they know enough to be an authority in other fields

chemists: don't think they know enough to be an authority in other fields

biologists: aren't even sure they know enough to be an authority in their own firld

mathematicians: don't understand why you seem to think they'd ever want to leave the beautiful and pure realm of numbers and have anything to do with any other field
