btw power wouldn't corrupt me because there's something wrong with me psychologically that makes me feel alien to humanity

power wouldn't corrupt me because I just wouldn't care that much since i'm anhedonic

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.

HEY REMEMBER ALL THE RATS WHO KEPT SAYING WE WERE IMAGINING THIS

i think the most upsetting thing about american-flavor puritanism is how fucking patronizing it is. it's 2026 but the whole world still has to deal with a cultural hegemony grown from the gnarled vestiges of victorian-era paternalism. tax-paying adults with passports and the right to vote are treated like wayward children because of the antiquated idea that authorities must protect the weak minds of the unwashed masses from depravity and corruption. the average american can send a fellow citizen to the chair, but they can't piss in a ditch without being declared an outlaw. american entertainment media is saturated with sex, but you can't talk about it online without getting your account suspended. it's such blatant censorship at a universal scale, but because sexual content is framed as inherently dangerous, this restriction on basic adult autonomy, this blanket denial of moral and intellectual adulthood, can be reframed as protection, an expression of care, a moral duty. "won't someone think of the children!" I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN! I AM A GROWN MAN!

Kinda sucks that futurism appeals to the base human need to see cool machine go fast. Cause as a car appreciator I wanna be like 'oohhh futuristic sick looking car in fast motion....' But unfortunately futurism is historically sub-fascism

I might be a dragon4dragon kind of butch to the core but i gotta admit dragon4unicorn has some pizzazz

you go to a little hipstery burger joint. kinda bro-y, no ceiling just rafters, warm lighting, serves guinness, your waiter has tattoos and a moustache. on the menu you see a dish called the "upskirt burger". how do you feel.

[studentofetherium]

what's on it? this is important

[emnesoi0]

it's a normal burger made with normal burger ingredients. it's an uncreative dish made to pad out the menu. it's just called the upskirt burger.

[studentofetherium]

what is their veggie burger called?

[emnesoi0]

"veggie burger".

[studentofetherium]

i walk out immediately

[emnesoi0]

interesting. why ?

[studentofetherium]

refusing to commit to their themes shows that the veggie burger is nothing more than an obligation. it's going to cost $20 and fries will be extra. they clearly don't appreciate what they have on their menu. at least call it the upskirt veggie burger, even if you can't come up with something better. creativity is to be cherished

secretary birds look pretty normal but for some reason people have collectively decided to photograph them like they're [takes a moment to find an acceptable way to say this] women

unrelated but one of the bad fanfiction lines that has been trapped in my head for LITERALLY 22 years was a beauty and the beast fanfic in which belle said “be careful, im a virgin in my vagina”. this has been on the tip of my tongue threatening to burst out of my mouth for decades

[beesmygod]

this one is SOOOO  good thank for you sharing. im going to be thinking about po’s honda civic too now

[hauntedchronicler]

this line from a wolfstar smutfic on ff.net has haunted my every waking thought since 2007

[do-you-have-a-flag]

this is one i only read as recently as 2017 but it’s from a 1999 star trek fic and it’s so good

#remember that this is a stepping stone to censoring the queer community in general #don't accept 'well its just this lot' cause bigots never stop #protect the herd

I'll be honest I'd like people to care a little more about what happens to me when it happens to me rather than what will potentially happen to the herd later. The hypothetical future herd is centred in discussions of what's currently happening to my community and it sucks. We need to stop transmisogyny and transphobia because it's bad, not because "later it will be the queers who actually matter who get it"
