#it is shocking

Not to play the empathy olympics or anything but when you’re getting angry that people are perhaps happy about Charlie Kirk’s passing - you’re not actually being that empathetic, because empathy is about understanding how other people feel.

I think empathy is needed nowadays more than ever but if you can’t understand why people, even on the left, are having incredibly mixed feelings at the moment (apart from just the shock of it) you’re not really being that empathetic. Empathy is more than just feeling bad for someone when something bad happens.

The amount of people on my dash right now coming out of the woodwork from entirely disparate fandoms to be like, “WTF BOB AND ELIZA GOT MARRIED?!” is giving me life.

Mr. Stephan: My understanding of pensions: the most important criteria of success are returns for both the members and the taxpayers who are paying into that. Why would you subordinate competency to, you know, expertise in maximizing returns?

Mr. McGowan: Well, first of all, I do want to correct a misstatement: taxpayers do not pay into these pension plans. The employers pay into the pension plan as part of their compensation for their workers. The individual workers: every two weeks, every paycheque, people like all these public-sector workers I just talked about are the ones who pay for that plan. The government does not pay. You guys don’t pay in, and you don’t carry any of the obligation. Like, in 1995 – seriously. He raises his eyebrows. Like, the level of misinformation around the table is shocking. I know I’ve heard it from your Premier . . .

Mr. Stephan: It is shocking.

Mr. McGowan: It is shocking You do not backstop these plans. The obligations are entirely the responsibility of the pension plans themselves.
