There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people. - Admiral William Adama

Costco has 7% annual staff turnover (93% retention), an incredibly loyal and respected customer base, solid quality, and refuses to change its food court pricing much beyond what it was 3 decades ago. It’s the third largest retailer in the country. Capitalism doesn’t have to be cruel.
All I'm saying is ain't no one hunting this man down. And I guarantee you he's not starving. You can be a CEO and still be wealthy and not fuck your customers over for a few extra nickels in the pockets of your investors.

Good news for once!

We’ve found a 300-year-old coral that’s so big it’s visible from space. It’s now considered the world’s largest. Best of all: it’s not yet harmed by climate change & global warming.

It’s being called a beacon of hope. Let it also be a call to action! #DoSomething 🧵
