Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year.
That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined.
It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks.
It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks.
Billionaire greed is out of control.

Astonishingly potent line about Britain at the dawn of the 80s in Larry Grayson’s Generation Game: “It says here you took a Cordon Bleu cookery course but it was a waste of time as your husband only likes sausage and chips”

As is usual in the UK, it is considered worse to *call* someone racist than to be racist.
I have fallen out with MANY people (friends!) over the years about this.
Folk who consider themselves unimpeachable, and go ballistic when you point out that something they did or said was kind of shitty.

The annual poppy insanity is well and truly on the go, as can be seen on @remembrancewatch.bsky.social
Things have gone way beyond remembrance and it is now little more than a cheap, performative tack-show, with apparently no limits to how cringeworthy the culprits can go.
Truly dismal.

Where's Belfast Dud and his cronies with their outrage? Take it if you're local and white, it's okay to be an abuser?
White? ✅
Male? ✅
Local? ✅
Amazing that the guys who are "protecting our women and children" seem to miss every single one of these stories somehow. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.
