Whenever someone mocks “science for science’s sake”, I point them to discoveries like this one — which literally emerged from looking at common dirt.

If you are thinking "it isn't fair that they have a 4 day work week and I don't" you are right! Fix that problem by forming a union and bargaining for what you need.
WE WON! After 42 days of striking we have a tentative agreement in hand that protects our existing 4 day work week, establishes a minimum salary, and adds protections against AI replacing jobs at our workplace!
![Graphic with multiple picket signs that reads "[up arrow] Minimum Salary", "4 day Work Week", and a big cancel sign over "AI Replacing Jobs" and so much more.

I think the Rankin/Bass version of The Hobbit is likely going to be the best adaptation of Tolkien's novel that we're ever going to get. Its art design runs the gamut from rustic to creepy to lovely, and its assortment of songs lend it a fairy tale quality that really fits the story.
