My heart beats on the left side.

"Do you ask what is the proper limit to wealth? It is, first, to have what is necessary, and, second, to have what is enough."

Seneca’s idea was that wealth should be limited to what is needed and enough - something no billionaire seems to understand.

Understanding must be forced.

If the Democrats and the Democratic Party had any spine left, they'd expel every member who breaks ranks and votes against the people. Permanently.

They won't.

It's working as intended.

Oh wow, the Democrats who are controlled by corpo-special interests did the thing the corpo-special interests wanted and conceded/capitulated. Who could have expected this from the performative centrists who claim to represent the working class but serve the interests of billionaires?

Gosh.

Golly.

The minimum wage freeze defenders got so mad at this video that it led to the most unoriginal misogyny and racism for two days. Anyway, I stand by what I said.

I had this piece in the pipeline at Teen Vogue when the news dropped; I'm publishing it to my Substack because I think it's important and I don't want an interview with Adam Hochschild to go to waste.

Both liberals and conservatives constantly dredge up entirely fabricated stories about the evils of communism, but when you bring up historical atrocities committed by capitalists, or point out US complicity or active participation in current atrocities, they consider that a form of cheating

The government is shuttered, families will starve, people will die, and Trump is "heading" the government just like last time when COVID ravaged the lands. And still, people gobble it up and the democrats are ever-useless.

The show is over folks.

You have front row tickets to the finale.

Watching BlueSky become like Twitter and be led by the same sort of people before the Muskening has been so very disheartening.

I'm just so tired.
