Sure, but also, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
It’s functionally impossible to ethically buy all the things you need and want. Yes we should all try to do our best and not just give up, but the actual solution is with systemic changes in our laws and regulations and how we set up our society. Everyone should focus on that long-term goal, while making small changes to their behavior. But that simply isn’t feasible for everyone to do and that is the bigger issue.
He isn’t even supposed to be holding office right now. He is an illegal and illegitimate president for inciting and enabling an insurrection and commiting treason.
The problem with that constitutional law and so many others is that there is no “automatic enforcement mechanism”. They are all written like “You can’t do X”, but they don’t specify “If you do X the consequences are Y and should be enforced by Z by them doing Q”…
We should focus on amending laws and our constitution especially to close all those loopholes that he found and exploited. It is still absolutely infuriating and insane that our constitution says he can’t even be president right now, but because no one enforced it we just let him move on in and take control and ruin the country. That is the stupidest reason possible for the stupidest president in the stupidest political movement in history. (So far)
Not just financially, also mentally and emotionally!
Back in my day I could go to the corner store and get chips and a soda and a magazine and whatever I wanted. Now they have security cameras.
Minimum Wage isn’t even livable!
Uses DOUBLE the minimum wage and it STILL isn’t livable
Zombie Jesus isn’t real he can’t hurt you.
Zombie Jesus:
I knew Zombie Jesus was real!
And the zombie hoarde lumbered into Jerusalem and they did feast on many brains and it was good. Amen.
He turned water into wine by pressing it with his massive swole thighs.
And he blessed the fish and loaves with his swole biceps and lo, they did turn into pure whey protein powder.
And Lazarus did die, but then Jesus bench pressed the death out of him so hard he came back to life.
And he could walk on water because he punched a wave so hard the ocean was scared of him forever and kept him from sinking.
And the giant boulder in front of his tomb? He wasn’t dead and buried, that was his exercise boulder and he just sat it down to have a power nap before lifting the mountain by himself.
He chose crucifixion over another team meeting because he was so sick of it all.
“Just rose from the dead, feeling kinda zombie, might delete later.”
TIL Jesus was real and he was a combination of mystics and prophets and other holy men that were all transmutated into an evil chimera homonculus with alchemy and he had 8 arms and 7 legs and 3 heads and it was really gross and creepy.
Roman: Dude it’s 3BC, you can’t be born yet, look at the calendar! It is quite clear, 3 more years. I swear to gods, Augustus will hear of this.
Great points, we had a strong Q2 and our projections show a very strong Q3 as well, but we don’t want to split our focus too much with all the market uncertainty. Remember, there is no I in team, but there is an I in Key Performance Indicators. So make sure you are moving the needle and let’s keep our bandwidth high so we can finish strong. I sent everyone an email and a DM and a voicemail and a paper letter with a printed QR code. Don’t forget to use that to fill out the feedback survey by EOW.
And just like EVERYTHING else he ever does, it doesn’t matter if it is blatantly illegal, against the constitution, violates everything, if we don’t enforce it IMMEDIATELY then it is already too late and we are stuck with the consequences.
He shouldn’t even BE president right now. He is illegal and illegitimate on account of commiting treason and insurrection. But no one enforced the law or constitution and so here we are.
And they are going to keep doing that until we say ENOUGH.
Absolutely, if I can just chime in here and address the elephant in the room, we really have to focus on the low hanging fruit and leverage our KPIs to really drive home any wins. From a 30,000ft view it looks like we have synergy and alignment here, but if we zoom in we can see that there are nothing but roadblocks and pain points with our holistic approach. I propose we circle back and try to realign our core competencies and remember what really made us a rock star team in the first place.
Except that everyone HATES working for capitalism, whether they realize it or not, and we all ABSOLUTELY need a job for reasons like survival.
I’d much rather spend my time working hard for something where I actually get to keep the value of my labors. As it is now I create millions of worth for the capitalists to extract (steal) from me and I get enough to not die. Neat… Who the hell wants this? Why do so many people keep defending capitalism when everyone is getting scammed and 99% of their profit stolen from them and funnelled up the pyramid scheme to a shareholder.
Capitalism requires there to be a threat of what happens if you “don’t work hard enough” or don’t play ball with those in power. Nevermind that most homeless people aren’t that way due to laziness or anything they did wrong, just unlucky situations or medical debt or being laid off at an inconvenient time or something.
It would be far cheaper to our country to have free housing, UBI, universal healthcare and social programs everywhere than what we are doing now, but what we are doing now makes about 1,000 people INSANELY wealthy at the expense of the other 342,000,000 people in the country, so that’s what we keep doing for some stupid reason.
Maybe one day everyone will wake up and stop enabling systems that create this shithole.
Indeed.
