The amount of entitlement contained in people who have hereditary wealth never ceases to amaze me. Instead of helping those around them, or helping to better the world for everyone, they spend their energy thinking of new ways to hold on to what they have, and not share anything new that they gain.

Couldn't agree more with this statement. They have mega mansions, they can buy politicians wholesale, & they couldn't spend it all even if they tried. Past a certain point of wealth, it is physically impossible to improve your living standard. Bullshit greed at the expense of the rest of society.

You know what I don’t get? So many fundamentalist religions teach that men can’t control themselves sexually, but at the same time they teach that women can’t be leaders.

I’m caught between dancing with excitement and hyperventilating with panic. My paper samples arrived yesterday and I’ve chosen one to send to the converter. This is really gonna happen!

Was sorting through my cross stitch pattern library the other night, and realized the designers are all white. Then realized I couldn’t name a single cross stitch designer of color. Can you guys help me diversify?

Why do people do this? Unemployment sucks whether you’re a lifelong “unskilled” laborer (don’t get me started on “unskilled”) or a highly trained technical expert. Getting laid off or fired is terrifying, whether you’re one missed payday from being unhoused, or you have a cushion to live on (1/2)
1. Feel free to share the data on the precise degree of misery endured by each team in the suffering Olympics
2. It sucks to be unemployed no matter what your field, comparing it is pointless
3. Some animators are also game developers, shout out to the homies, I hope we all get new jobs soon 🫡

These pretty pleasures might me move, To live with thee, and be thy love.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of of a good fortune must be in want of a wife, but perhaps a tweak of the algorithm is in order.
