stop glamorizing being a go-getter and start glamorize a bed nook !

The phrase, "everyone except workers" reminds me of that one poll that said AOC was unpopular with "everyone except women, poc, young people, and LGBTQ people." Like such a circuitous to say they think older cishet white men are the default everyone, with all else being an abberation.

Like "everyone except workers" is just bosses, executives, and investors. Aka people that profit off of work without actually doing it, which is a far smaller group than workers are.

"The people that don't actually do the work don't like this thing that makes the lives of the people that actually do the work better," is probably a less appealing headline to the readers of Fortune Magazine.

I genuinely mean this, I hope all 5 of those Supreme Court members who voted Yes have to live their lives getting harassed and are extremely bothered till their last dying breath.

Bother them, make their lives miserable, make them not want to leave their homes.

i feel like it must be the height of luxury and decadence to be a kid sitting in one of those little trailers attached to your parent’s bike, being driven around like some kind of pompous miniature capitalist, relaxing with perhaps a small snack while your personal chauffeur takes you wherever you wish

Yea I don't really remember the words but then it goes

SECRET TUNNEEELLLL

[lizzy-bennet]

All of us thirsting over Pedro Pascal as Din despite him wearing full body armor and a huge helmet has the same energy as all of us thirsting over Oscar Isaac in his Moon Knight and Mr. Knight costumes despite how he’s completely covered head to toe and wearing a full mask. Love that for us. Love that for them. The space sisters strike again.

Remember when Jeff Bezos, who is worth 181 billion USD donated 690k to stopping Australian fires? Yeah, me too.

[s-s-s-senp-p-p-pai]

McKenzie Scott is literally proof that these fuckers can donate HUGE sums of money to EVERYTHING and still live a comfortable life.... But nooO someone HAS to justify the pitifully small donations the richest men on earth make every year for their tax write-off

Some also important context (this is June 2021, after her second round of grants was announced), as well: 

[image description: tweet from Dan Price, the Seattle business owner who doesn’t take a massive salary and pays everybody at his company really well: “Two years ago, she had $36 billion. Since then, she has donated $8 billion - more than anyone in the world. She is now worth $60 billion. I think people struggle to understand just how fast wealth accumulates for the super-rich. She literally can't give it away fast enough.”.]

[mana4anam-deactivated20221204]

She’s trying to singlehandedly redistribute the wealth she took back from Jeff Bezos and is failing at it because the economy is built so that wealth travels from the bottom, accumulates at the top, and then stays there. She literally cannot give her money away fast enough.

Think about this. This is our current capitalist economy at work. It is working as intended and designed by those who benefit from it.

Her story is incredibly revealing of how and where the system is failing.

It also means that we can, indeed, tax the hell out of billionaires and they will not suffer at all.

Here’s Who MacKenzie Scott Donated To So Far In February

The billionaire philanthropist, and ex-wife of Jeff Bezos, has given four organizations $172 million so far this month.

In case anyone was curious what she’s been up to lately. (She has stopped publicly announcing the donations, saying that too much attention was going to her instead of the organizations she chose. Recipients are welcome to name her as the donor when they announce whatever they’re doing with the money, however.)

people always say: life is full of choices. no one ever mentions fear! or how the world can seem so vast, on a journey… to the past.
