I want to expand here.
The whole point of an economy is to facilitate the human experience. Economies are a forum to exchange goods and services for society to operate etc.
If the economy has to run at the expense of human experience, that system has failed in its only purpose and must be replaced.
Screenshot of things I'm about to tell my economics class.
The holy grail of searching through academic literature is coming across a string of publications that are like:
Here’s An Idea. Smith et al. 2016
Terrible Idea; a comment on Smith et al. 2016. Johnson 2016.
You’re Wrong Too; a response to Johnson 2016. Nelson 2016.
Guys Just Stop Fighting, None Of Us Know What’s Going On; a Review of the Current Literature. McBrien 2017.
Not even an exaggeration.

They’re having Twitter beef now.
Gonna be a researcher and publish perfectly alright but easily academically questionable study just to have beef like this with someone.
‘Perhaps the most surprising finding so far is that there is no surprise.’
For many people, the 40-hour work week can be an exhausting grind. But new research bolsters the argument that the solution isn’t necessarily to focus on improving your mindset, getting a better night’s sleep, or simply sucking it up. It’s switching to a four-day work week. The evidence is presented in a study published on July 21 in the journal Nature Human Behavior. The five-day, 40-hour work week was a hard-fought win for labor activists in the US. The legal protection only arrived after generations of grassroots organizing, union solidarity, and physical sacrifice—and even today the right isn’t guaranteed to people working multiple, part-time, or gig jobs. Still, that hasn’t stopped many labor advocates from pushing for even greater workplace gains.

did you know they say calculus is the language of God. did you know they tried to hold math up to infinity like a candle to the void. did you know statisticians plunged into the vastness of random chance and picked out patterns and equations and eight hundred ways to tell you how big your inevitable errors are and how far off those guesses at errors might be. math haters I can't sit with you anymore. human innovation is cradled in these ancient, methodical, desperate attempts at understanding what we are not designed to understand
nuclear power is impressive until you get up to why. "we use the most precisely engineered machinery ever created to split atoms to release energy" oh yeah how come? "boil water to turn a fan" get the fuck out
The power of atom turns out to be, yet again, the power of steam
I'm an industrial engineer and tbh, I think my degree can be more if my peers just stop caring only about productivity and efficiency and removing idle time from the production process to make most of the labor cost. My friend's students in medical research just found a cure for humanity's stupidity and my students here just made a compact process flowchart to lessen cycle time that makes the company save 0.02 dollars per hour at the cost of the worker's "idle" time but who cares about the workers right? Like there's traffic management, urban planning, agriculture, workplace safety, ergonomics, spaceflight engineering, all these industrial engineering areas to help humanity, but no, we always gotta make sure businesses make the most from their poor employees. Not even, "make employees happy" no. Always, make them productive and efficient to save money. And honestly, I feel so detached from my degree already. I'm beginning to feel like a failure as an educator but I'm stuck in company improvement research. I want... I want out already. I want to feel more useful for humanity.
i bet crossing spears with someone to block entry into a location feels so fucking good
Two guards, crossing spears to forfeit my entrance, both blushing for their synchronicity that was only possible through intimate brotherhood.
Versus me, who only wishes to deliver my cabbages to the royal kitchen.
It would be nice to be able to actually see the night sky again.
For those who say Better and Best will give you darker streets, ergo, more crimes, who’s gonna rob you above the street lights? Mothman?

Magical girl: Desert
[ID: Drawing of a hijabi with medium light skin and blue eyes wearing a cactus-inspired fantasy outfit. She wears a green-blue striped capelet with a lighter green collar and a pink bow, the edges done in gold and decorated with ruffles, under which she wears a blue skirt with golden stripes and a pink belt. Her headscarf is light green with one large pink blossom on it. She doesn’t have visible sleeves or arms. The background is many different kinds of cacti. /end ID]

Hey! How come everything I do is a sign of mental illness???
I just don't have any motivation to do anything so I think it's optional to live without motivation? I don't aspire to be the next president.
I find small tasks overwhelming because I don't do task usually. I'm inexperienced and lazy.
I always say sorry because I'm always wrong. Duh.
I always edit my thoughts before speaking because I don't want to be perceived idiotic. I mean, don't we all????
So I had depression and I did the usual thing depressed people do: make a joke out of my own depression.
Then this friend of mine said: Girl, are you acting like those sad girls on tiktok? Don't pretend to be like a sad girl.
I couldn't even speak, I just paused and stared at the floor sadly like the sad girl I was, and just thought, "Girl I have clinical depression. Diagnosed."
