-Look, the plebs are enjoying the spring weather on their free day. Let’s see if we can squeeze them a bit more.

Protest + boycott + general strike = power of the masses. Protest alone stopped the Iraq War, and genocide in Gaza and even the financial crisis. No, wait I read that wrong, protest does nothing unless its step 1.

The who? The Hu! Who? The HU!

You made me think stubeef had died. Bad meme! Bad!

Thank you so much America and RFK. Vaccines have become contested as scientific fact, and the only way to truly show the world the truth, is to rip away vaccines from a country that has them, and count the dead before and after. Your willingness to sacrifice potentially thousands of American lives to prove your opponents’ point, is almost Christ-like in its self-sacrificial nature, and Trump-like in its mythical level of stupidity and disregard for the value of human life. The rest of the world thanks you for ridding our countries of any traction vaccine skeptics might ever have had. We thank you for your service.

Still have a few shares from the old gamestop squeeze, said I’d keep them as a memory. Might not now.

Iirc, people in Soviet breadlines had money, but supply was limited and prices not allowed to follow demand. Money to spend, but nothing to buy.

Where is this from?

Discovered something fun this week, in Norwegian the word for employer is “work-giver”, but a bit of digging revealed that the alternative “work-buyer” existed but went out of use. I think people would sell their time and labor for more if the wording more clearly revealed the actual relationship.

Ancient Rome had privatized fire department. Caesar’s friend Crassus got the job and used it to extort people to sell their homes in a neighborhood when a fire broke out. As a result he became one of the richest people in history. He was also killed by the Persians who poured liquid gold (or silver, depending on source) on his decapitated head and sent it back to Rome.
