Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Ok, I need help. There's an older fantasy series that I can't remember the name of! I'm sure the main character's name was Gwidian (sp?). He is moved around in time by someone and has a child. Help me!

Trump won the popular vote by 1.5% this year, which according to @piersmorgan.bsky.social was Democrats getting "pounded into total, shameful, humiliating oblivion."
@briantylercohen.bsky.social: "Would you have said the same thing about [Trump] in 2020 who lost by a 4.5% margin nationally?"
"No."

15. Contract bridge, one of the most popular games of the 20th century, has four players but only three of them make decisions. Games can be built to do this, to allow for or even demand different levels of engagement & agency for different players.
