I’m reading that new memoir about working at Facebook,”Careless People,” and it’s just fucking insane.

At one point Facebook wanted to be an international hub for organ donation. The “Lean In” lady asked why she couldn’t go down to Mexico and buy a kidney if her four year old needs one. This is literally on p.57. What the fuck else is going to be in this book if that is on page 57

[amarguerite]

Facebook also had to have protocols for armed raids of its foreign offices because they violated so many laws or failed to pay taxes or comply with other official protocols!! How is this a company that still exists!!!

[amarguerite]

“Doing jail time in a foreign country is not a reasonable ask from your bosses” — legitimately an argument the author’s husband had to have with her!!

[amarguerite]

Is this what gilded age readers felt like when they read Upton Sinclair’s “The Jungle”???

[amarguerite]

Though strangely nothing Mark Zuckerberg does is worse than Sheryl Sandburg, who comes across as an unhinged hypocrite who uses her uncontrollable anger issues to cultivate a reign of terror, I am just… baffled and appalled at how much Zuckerberg does not care about the world outside of Silicon Valley. There have already been two instances of him trying to wear a hoodie to state visits, and not in a Zelenskyy protest way. He just doesn’t like clothes that are not hoodies.

[amarguerite]

Wow they just abandoned a team member in the middle of an out of control crowd in Indonesia! Horrible company!

[amarguerite]

Guess who Mark Zuckerberg thinks is the best president of all time?

Hint: it’s Andrew Jackson!

[amarguerite]

Another mind-boggling line: “I think the point at which you have to explain Nuremberg to the head of the team leading your China entry is probably a red flag.”

[amarguerite]

Real exchange that happened between book author and the head of the DC office:

[amarguerite]

This conference room detail seems like too much for satire. But it isn’t!

[amarguerite]

This book has gotten so insane I can’t even summarize anymore. I can only post photos of this moment where Sheryl Sandberg wears her pajamas on a private jet and tries to make her heavily pregnant employee cuddle in bed with her on a flight back to California from Davos, Switzerland.

Following this, we discover that Sheryl says, “you should have gotten in the bed,” and ices out the narrator. Sheryl also has her assistant Sadie buy $10k of lingerie for her, and $3k of lingerie for herself, after which Sadie has to go to her house to model the lingerie and stay overnight. What the actual fuck.

Woooow FB knew the whole time that Trump was using trolls and spreading disinformation before the 2016 election but because they were making so much money off of it, they were just fine with it. They completely ignored the author pointing out how Duterte had done the same thing.

[amarguerite]

Direct quote on p 251: “Outrage is a lucrative business for Facebook right now, a month before the election….”

[amarguerite]

Jaw-dropping.

[amarguerite]

Guess who lied to Congress about how the Chinese Communist Party would apply its laws and regulations to Facebook?

Mark Zuckerberg!

[amarguerite]

A lot of this later stuff about Facebook’s attempts to get into China are going a little over my head but I can see why Meta was trying to discredit the book and shut down reviews. She’s whistleblowing violations of US AND international laws. I doubt they’ll see consequences under Trump but YIKES

the way sesame street, a pbs puppet show for literal babies, is pressing on with pride content despite vitriolic monsters descending on every post to insinuate they're pedophiles or demons while some of the biggest companies on the planet who could swim in olympic swimming pools of money like scrooge mcduck on steroids buckle and cave just emphasizes how completely and utterly pathetic these corporations are. they'd butcher a baby if it meant saving a penny.

[adobe-outdesign]

Sesame Workshop has been doing pride stuff since 2017. The Muppet Wiki has a nice list of stuff they've done:

LGBT culture

LGBT culture describes the social paradigm by which lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) individuals sometimes identify. C

[aquilathefighter]

Jim Henson supported his openly queer colleagues in the 1970s! The Muppet performer Richard Hunt was majorly influential on Sesame Street, the Muppet Show, and Fraggle Rock.

They also dumped Chick-fil-A in 2012 when CFA made their stance on gay marriage known.

It would be a dishonor to their memories for the Jim Henson Company to kowtow to queerphobic demands when their namesake always stood for diversity and acceptance of everyone, and it makes me proud to be a Muppet fan to see that insisted upon 💖🌈

[ash-and-starlight-deact]

to everybody who said they’d make a bong: you’re right and I love you

[zed-echo-ro]

[roach-works]

even funnier: the heirloom bong handcrafted by the firelord and the best earthbender in the world actually just fucking sucks because they were idiot teenagers at the time and didn’t know anything about smoking, plus one of them was a firebender who had ridiculously well-developed breath control as well as magic fire powers, while the other was a wildly obnoxious ninety pound girl who could get high off oregano crumbs.

like, the most valuable bong in the world is nearly unusable. it’s awful. you have to practically turn yourself inside out on the inhale to draw any smoke up and there’s nowhere to hold it that doesn’t burn your hands. even worse is that it’s in the shape of Aang, the last Airbender, master of all four elements, holding a smaller bong.

Is someone ordering fries and chicken tenders at a restaurant that specializes in culturally significant foods, or one that brands itself as a place for fine dining (not to be confused with loek red lobster or whatever) a turn off for you

Yes

No
