Sexual selection is made by the FEMALE of the species.
Males show off, too, but women do the choosing.
If some males think that women showing off means they can take whatever they want, other males should stop, not copy them.
But that's not a one-liner meme.

Next time you hear someone bragging about how much 'work' they do in a day/week - you can probably assume they're running on too little sleep and using that as some sort of badge of honour
A gentle slap is probably in order to wake them up, and point them in this direction 😉

It amuses me no end that some of the most devalued and underpaid human roles are those that robots will continue to struggle with for a long time to come
Restaurants are experimenting with ways to automate their operations. But despite high interest in robots in the kitchen and years of effort, human labor is hard to replace.

I really suspect that most of the 'oh wikipedia - it's a joke' brigade have never critically used it as a first starting point reference for scientific and real-world info - to be cross-checked. Only to look up celebrity gossip.
It’s honestly pretty fucking ridiculous to go after Wikipedia. It’s like getting mad at a stapler.

And my answer to God... (because I don't like revolutions)
- God will have to rewrite the economic rulebook - by using his omnipresent AI-ness to do that - and then zero the accounts of rulebreakers.
- No immediate redistribution of wealth needed, just a rule change, with actual rule enforcement.
