Sagittarius, born in the year of the water rat. Size 44 shoe, not as tall as I claim. Thinning on top, widening round the middle. I try not to be a dick and often fail. What else do you need to know?
I’ve seen this skeet many times and it doesn’t look right. Can anyone tell me on what measure he is basing these numbers? E.g. 1995 I was paid £3ish per hr on a 40 hr week. It’s now over £30 ph, so I’ve increased pay by 1,000% or so. If it had been 24%, I’d be on about £4 or half minimum wage.
CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Okay, I’m curious about the Paffle, please don’t tell me about the other.

Well. This is a rabbit hole you need to go down. Insights galore, some you know, lots you don’t.
Trans men’s insight on this is so fucking valuable in understanding the nuances of what’s going on with men. We need to be amplifying them, and hopefully cis men can realize what is actually the source of their loneliness.

The cruel Hamas terror must be fought. But international humanitarian law applies — with a special obligation to protect civilian sites. How is a hospital supposed to be evacuated in under 20 minutes? #Gaza @abaerbock.diplo.de (1/2)

Are we framing this right? The nation state has been the dominant model for centuries. Are we at the end of the era and these “tech bro dipshits who don’t understand how government works” looking at the next paradigm? Are we in fact fighting the last war instead of this war?
Will be interesting to see how a state that shreds its own capacity to collect taxes can sustain global power status

Reminds me..Why when leaving loos in pubs/cinemas/etc you almost always have to pull the door to open instead of push? Surely it makes sense to have the push side for exiting so you don't have to put your washed hands on a handle that pissy-handed gits have used.
Level design tips for irl situations: if you have a handle instead of this on the push side of the door, expect problems. This is the game design screw up that MOST bothers me in real life. If you want people to push, WHY have you put a handle on it?????

A pigeon has taken residence in our garden. It’s not a problem, it has ringed legs, which leads me to believe it is a homing pigeon. Anyone lose one? It’s been here a week or so. It would be lovely to hear from anyone who knows better …

Every once in a while I will say
“Fuck it” and cook something from all the bits in my fridge & it will be amazing and entirely unreplicable & become known by my wife as “that nice thing with the chorizo you cooked that one time”
