What I always hear: βWe canβt afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.β
What I never hear: βWe canβt afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.β
Funny how that works.
I see there's people around out there who still haven't worked this out yet.

Them and their offspring and relatives.
I think too itβs time to cut back on images, videos, emails we store past any useful date.
Green and blue are kind of OK but orange, yellow and red are absolutely not.
Most California voters support the stateβs newly proposed billionaire tax, according to new polling.
Meanwhile, rich Californians are plotting a $500M slush fund to influence the state's politics.
So they can't afford a wealth tax, but they'll spend a fortune buying elections?
See the problem...
Would be lucky to get one for 1.25m now.

Iβve been up here since around 2013 and things have changed a lot during that time. There werenβt many people living permanently in my immediate area then. Now there are lots and many havenβt been through this sort of weather event before. Lots of people missed work and anxious. Changed days.

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.
I didnβt think it was happening either.
βHaving a single seedling come up in a 16-metre plot would mark that area as regenerated and good to go,β
βYou can see the absurdity of it when you step back and imagine what the forest was like before it was logged.
βNo sane person could think thatβs regenerated.β

I've written stuff hammering Israel and its enablers
<case in point: t.co/pqOLNeoYQK >
One close litigation call aside, I've done so somewhat fearlessly.
But I don't have speaking engagements lined up like Grace Tame. I've got nothing to lose to these ruthless bastards.

In the lead-up to the U.S.-Israeli attack, President Trump downplayed the risks to the energy markets as a short-term concern that should not overshadow the mission to decapitate the Iranian regime.

The other question is how much loss is Israel prepared to take before pressing the nuclear button. Iran is being faced with annihilation with conventional weapons and so there is no deterrent factor but how much will Israel be willing to lose before it decides enough. This is what terrifies me.πππ

I wonder when AI will remind the bosses that without jobs, humans canβt buy what theyβre selling.
This is like watching Trump bankrupt a casino in real time. Except this time we are the casino.
Australian federal and state government subsidies that encourage fossil fuel use and help drive the climate crisis will reach $16.3bn this year after leaping by nearly 10%, according to a new analysis.
$30,000 a minute. While pensioners struggle to afford meds!

Veg first not including potatoes. Least liked veg before the others. Potatoes last as they were there to make you feel full.π My kids still eat this way.
