playing adult is peculiar in the way that it isn’t fake or pretend, you’re in it, in the way like if you were dressed up as a clown that wouldn’t be your “clownsona” you would just simply be a clown

As much as I really think that EVERYONE who holds ONE job of at least 30 hours a week should never have to worry about rent or groceries EVER, I also think raising the minimum wage will just lead to corporations inflating their prices so within a short time that $25 an hour spends like $10 now. We need to consider rent and food price controls hand and hand with wage increases.

Rent and food price controls are absolutely a good idea. However it is worth noting that when California increased its minimum wage to $20/hr, it caused very little overall inflation (1.5% roughly per this article).

Study: California’s $20 minimum wage barely raised prices—and proved economists wrong about job loss | Fortune

“The results are nowhere as dire as predicted,” Berkeley’s Michael Reich told Fortune.

here are the living wages for 2026 for a single parent of 2 in the top 10 largest metro areas in the usa, whose combined population includes over a quarter of the entire population of the usa

NYC: $72.10

LA: $68.41

Chicago: $57.98

Dallas: $48.97

Houston: $45.97

Atlanta: $52.11

DC: $67.32

Miami: $53.66

Philly: $62.71

Phoenix: $55.27

the last time the minimum wage was set was in 2009. the fight for 15 began in 2012. adjusting for inflation that would be just over 21 in today's money. so it's nice to see them go a little higher this time, given how long a new battle would take, if the previous is any measure. so maybe by the time they start to see some success it will have maintained some sliver more relevance.

but it's clearly not enough, and will likely hardly keep up with inflation by the time they're even able to push it thru

anything not tied to inflation is a joke at our expense

The (European) sun is a deadly laser, stay safe everyone

[unfuckablebogtroll]

☝️🤓 it’s because the further you move toward the earth’s poles, the lower the angle of the sun is at the hottest parts of the day, meaning the radiation hits your whole body, causing it to feel 10-20 degrees warmer than the thermometer reading will tell you. People from tropical climes, aka close to the equator, are used to the sun’s radiation hitting a much smaller target- their head and shoulders.

Also the further you move toward the poles the more pronounced the difference between the length of day and night is. Worst part of a far-north (or south) heatwave is it doesn’t get dark long enough for meaningful cooling.

It’s not the heat. It very literally is the sun.
