Labor gaining just the tiniest amount of power relative to capital a few years back absolutely broke employers' brains
While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.

Nah, fuck this shit. Keep your work life and your real life as separate as possible. Your coworkers shouldn’t even know your real name, as far as I’m concerned.

“Riots Raging”: The Misleading Story Fox News Told About Portland Before Trump Sent Troops

The one positive to glean from trash like this is that it gives you a curated list of people never to listen to again, about anything. If you skip that part, they'll do it again.

So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

When nothing else is working they know they can give their base a little chub by going after black women. We are their favotire punching bags.
The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Why does JD Vance make it seem like Joy Reid is a visitor to this country rather than a citizen?? Why should a citizen of the "greatest country of the world" not expect to be treated well and have a good life?? Oh, right.

I'm gonna argue that it wasn't rapid at all, and has in fact been in the works for upwards of 50 years. reason it seems rapid to the casual observer is we've reached the part where they don't have to be secretive about it anymore
What America is going through is not unusual in historical terms. Plenty of examples like it today elsewhere in the world.
What makes it unusual is the rapid collapse from a set of widely espoused norms and values that centered on liberty. It is the sacking of the shining city on hill that shocks.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
