the purpose of a protest is to demonstrate that those in power are holding power through violence rather than consent

I've received 100+ replies like this, claiming game revenue goes directly to executives & shareholders. So I checked & made this chart.

This is what happens when you buy a $69.99 game from EA, the company with the WORST reputation in the industry.

0.8% goes to c-suite. 53% goes to devs & workers.

I think the difficulty comes from how the non-political stuff I follow on twitter feels actually insightful and thought provoking but everything I follow on bsky is just like "yeah, that's correct" lol

There is not nearly enough talk about the fact that DOGE is gonna have a death toll in Africa that rivals the Holocaust.

Just take essential oils. Just ignore seed oils. Just don’t get vaccinated. Just have a Strong Leader who will Be Strong. We think of cranks as being co-opted by authoritarians, but I think it’s more the people with that tendency coming home to their natural political place.

Actually did a quesadilla night with the housemates where I made both red and green salsa and whipped together some sriracha mayo and yeah the chipotle marinade slaps so hard that it was an easy success (I will get addicted to quesadillas)

Been branching out more into other stuff, recently we did kimchi/gochujang type stuff and then mexican style things after (if you make burritos/quesadillas just get some chipotle adobo sauce [super cheap] and marinate them a little bit and it's such an easy level up)

Missing the key "absolutely nobody is saying this" to a post quoting someone saying it

Feels just like a funny situation where we want our machines and tools to be sensitive to incoming data but we want our people to be mindless unfeeling automatons lol no wonder AI is evolving in the way it is and taking all the creative shit first, it's because probably as a species we undervalue it

Often times "he/she is sensitive to queer issues" (for example) gives the impression that you have to walk on eggshells around them when like being sensitive to issues typically exists at an intersection between knowledge and scale/attention (where you are looking). "Stop being so sensitive" etc.

Idk I'm just noticing more and more areas where the end goal (going outside, socializing) is seen as a step *to* getting over it when really it's a way to tell where someone is at. It's like the indicators of success, people use them as a shortcut and it ruins the signaling.
