The fact that the audio is so slightly slightly out of sync in places is sending me.

working full time is terrible why do we just accept that having 8 days off a month is normal and okay…….. being alive could be cool but we waste it at our JOBS…. sorry i’m just heated about capitalism again i’ll be fine

8 days….never thought about it like that 😓

This seems really whiny to me. Like, I agree with you, work sucks, but our ancestors didn’t get to browse tumblr at their desks or have the option to gleefully spend their ENTIRE WEEKENDS horizontal on the couch stuffing their faces/watching tv/playing video games/wacking off. They didn’t have weekends. They just slaved away as fucking peasants from dawn to dusk until they died in childbirth or got the consumption.

I am perfectly happy working 8 hrs a day because I don’t have to:

grow my own food

find my own clean water

heat my house

shit in the woods

Hi, I study social and cultural anthropology. Humans working 40+ hours a week is 100% an industrial revolution thing and was not normal in the early stages of our existence. In fact, hunter and gatherer societies that still exist to this day spend about 15-20 hours a week TOPS working. The rest is dedicated to sitting around and telling stories and jokes, dancing, singing, eating, sleeping, fucking and so forth. Read a damn book.

Medieval peasants lived grueling, terrible lives. But their vacation days beat out the policies now common even in progressive societies.

Also, who the hell gets to spend an entire weekend laying around doing nothing? I work all week, and then I have two days “off” to run errands, clean the house, go grocery shopping, meal prep, etc. When all is said and done, I have time to either relax OR go do something I enjoy with friends or family. I dont have time for both. And most people I know are in similar situations… The work week takes so much time and energy that weekends are really just a time to devote to catching up on outside responsibilities. It’s exhausting.

Like… our RECENT ancestors would be FURIOUS over a 40 hour work week. It was created with the idea that it would eventually be reduced once automation was more viable.

My own grandfather (I’m 33) was furious that he worked 40 hours a week until he retired. He was PISSED that the 20 hour week he was promised as a boy never happened.

You can go ahead and thank a bunch of rich, selfish pricks for it not happening. Hell, there’s plenty of research showing us just how fucking bullshit a 40 hour workweek with an hour or more commute really is. Entirely unneeded and not even particularly useful because it damages human endurance and productivity.

i am FASCINATED by how Britney is so supportive and excited about their interest in Pokemon even though I have absolutely no doubt she is utterly confused by Pokemon
