Ehhh H1B is panacea–just you wait and see! 🤡
We can outsource physical labor, now we can outsource intellectual labor. Fly em in, give them the lowest wage they’ll accept, threaten with deportation if they fall out of line. This is the kind of deal these companies are really looking to exploit – they save money trimming their higher-paid talent while replacing them with someone being paid far less. It’s a win-win for the corps
Fucking seriously–i don’t know how many “Moes” exist but i finally managed to block them all…i think
I like weird! Mind sharing your favorites?
Will they also be donating a cool million to his inauguration though? They aren’t gonna get very far with him if they didn’t 😬
It was a multifaceted day, to be sure 🥴
It’s utterly depressing to see the healthcare system (and thus people’s health) circling the drain – yet another cash cow that’s been overfed and overexploited.
In the wake, a handful of assholes have more money than they can spend while millions of people all get worse–while somehow more expensive-- healthcare. Take note of United Health taking the #2 Shkreli Award this past year, upholding their rep as the scum we know them to truly be.
I think about all the research, work, advancements, sacrifice, pain, and loss that has ultimately made medical technology so amazing and cutting-edge, yet as it’s gotten more capable it’s become less available. Inevitably it became a money game just like every other industry in existence. Compassion, humanity, care–all these things take back seat to the almighty dollar. The greed and cruelty is disgusting, and it’s only going to get worse. Nothing will change the responsible party’s minds and there are scores of self-important shits waiting to usurp any of the roles responsible for this state of affairs. Just a fucking disgrace and a real ‘fuck-you’ to all the innovators and brilliant individuals that shared their talents to give the rest of us a chance at a longer, healthier life.
Nostradamus over here, lol! 🔮
What will she be doing 2 months from now? Rolling in the $ while you get mad that someone figured out a way to make an easier living?
If you really believe that a person that makes 1M on OF “deserves” that money and did “hard work” then I don’t really think there’s anything we can discuss.
Someone sounds a little jelly. Seriously though, there are all kinds of people making way more money than that without doing a damn thing to justify a penny of it. The Internet allows niche means of making money simply because you can “sell” your products to thousands or even millions of people–in this case directly from the comfort of her home. There are plenty of other schemes out there that can be similarly lucrative if you’re good at what they want you to do.
Clearly this woman is quite smart to be in that field in the first place, why wouldn’t she take the more lucrative route? Wouldn’t you?
Fuckers out here getting denied for health insurance claims at record rates while money flows like a raging river from corps to pols
It’s the boring truth–without getting the rudiments and stick control and proper technique, the drum set is not gonna make you a good drummer. It’s fun as hell to have one to play, no doubt–but if the goal is to be a good drummer you really gotta focus on the basics first.
Omg really?!? 😳 Is he bringing his human shields (e.g. his children) with him as well?
Government excess i can get behind, lol
That’s an interesting thing I’ve observed–we seem to be past “cancel culture” or it only gets credit when a known scoundrel gets de-platformed. We’re in the age of too-big-to-fail celebrities. If they have a large enough base, there’s unlikely anything they can do to completely lose them or fall that far into obscurity.
you can save a boat load on car insurance by walking instead
Love that logic–“i opened up shop in your country, therefore i have the right to meddle with your politics”
Love how success in this country basically just makes you a target for the most unscrupulous capitalists around.
Another article i scrolled past before seeing this was stating Steam broke their record releasing over 18,000 games in 2024.
How can anyone have enough time to even try them all?
I just think about the robots that they’ll use to control the populous. They’re proving themselves exceptional at war, i get nervous that they’ll become the catch-all solution for domestic issues as well. I guess at the end of the day, I’m just afraid of the danger they present ‘in the wrong hands’ (though i can’t just assume they’re always in the right ones today, so 🤷♂️)
Can’t stop technology though, so I’ll just buckle up and prepare for the ride as best i can
But it was the way the characters hand was positioned! No commentary, just a picture in a trailer for a cutesy game
The response is ridiculous, but not surprising
