Corporations for decades have been demonstrating that they will always prioritize "shareholder value" over their employees. The government being the reason they are doing it is more a sign of petty cowardice than any bullshit reason their PR people release.

Just realizing this odd similarity in palette and tone between Branagh's three Poirot films and Johnson's Knives Out trilogy. They seem to mirror in order.
Putting this here because it's a thought for the void of the internet to maybe see randomly in 5 years and potentially validate.

" The word 'grace' has a lightness to it that I don’t feel, calling to mind the phrase, 'charity towards all and malice to none.' But I do have malice towards some. In fact, my malice keeps finding new targets upon which to fixate. michaelianblack.substack.com/p/saying-grace

Every time one of the big networks puts a live event on their streaming service and not on one of their network channels, it cements that I won't pay for their streaming service and honestly makes me reticent to watch any of their other programming. I'm petty like that. I'm not signing up for 1 more

Apparently they started a pool to see how quickly they could completely break America. Those pulling their strings must be so excited to see the amount of cruelty they've managed in a single week. Just wild and sad.
