We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

Study (N=900) finds women in advertising earn 5% less than men; mothers: 8% less. When women asked mgrs about pay, they’d say they would look into it but nothing would happen. Men were more likely to receive answers about pay, even when the outcome was negative. www.adweek.com/agencies/wom...

What do they all have in common?

They've all spoken out about Ticketmaster ripping off fans.

But Trump just gave Ticketmaster the equivalent of a corporate pardon.

It's a betrayal of every fan in America.

This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.

Like a lot of things rich guys believe and fund, the AI consciousness thing is in part driven by a desire to abscond from the responsibility of what they've made. It also explains why so many of them think we're in a simulation. Doesn't matter if everybody died if we're all just 1s and 0s baby!
