“Those people are dangerous, so we need to make a government that kills people.” The world is willing to burn because a few people who are different exist nearby.
“As an authoritarian, I like having to not think about things. Hierarchy is natural and the only way everything works. This makes it easy to know what’s best. Details are for the lower class of person, the number nerds who work for the rest of us. My favorite part of authoritarianism is knowing that only the strongest survive and following the strongest so I will survive too. It makes knowing how things work so easy!”
“This knowledge exacts a terrible toll.”
At that rate, it will at the very least make incredible typists. At most it will create a bubble of very capable AI trainers and maintainers.
Don’t forget about Diarrhea Zero and the next gen remakes for 1 and 2. Also, there’s the ARG in the DFW airport bathrooms back in the early 00s. There’s also the previous series Diarrhea is based on, The Skids.
Typically there’s an entourage that includes the people who actually run things and/or communicate the decisions made by the oligarch. They will own the company but rarely make direct decisions for the company. They may make business decisions in the beginning of the company history but by a certain size they are detached from most operations and hand down proactive choices about what the company should be doing with its resources.
The primary vehicle for their money is the control of the company they own, the actual stocks that they borrow against for spending money.
Since they have access to any amount of money they want, there is no need to do any actual work. Any interaction with the company is just personal preference and the owner is more useful as a mouthpiece and investment magnet for the company. With few obligations each week, days start to not matter and sleep schedules are fucked. Sobriety becomes a burden since there is nothing to live for - it has all been accomplished. The only thing left to do is get drunk/high and spend money.
Owning a successful company, even a successful local business, is usually enough to detach a person from the average experience of daily work and set schedules. Millionaire business owners are just as warped as a billionaire so it becomes a question of where the shit happened. Billionaires go overseas to do fucked shit.
Anecdotally, most millionaires don’t work. Some have hobbies that make a few thousand here and there but they don’t worry about schedules. They are on rich time.
Edit: the ones who are in business leadership and making millions each pay period are literally sociopaths. They run shit to exercise power. They don’t actually need to be there either except for some decision making meetings and coordinating with other organizations.
If a chunk of ISS falls and damages something or hurts a person, who is liable: the organization that put it up there or the one paid to take it down?
Hey folks, this is advice for helping vegans, celiacs, and other diet conscious individuals enjoy a social gathering. It’s weird to get upset at advice on hosting for vegans when it’s showing a person how to be inclusive and remember vegans need actual food and not some green thing from the side of the plate.
How tall is Adam Driver and that horse? They’re almost eye level. I had no idea Kylo Ren was supposed to be as big as Vader. Kylo needed to pickup more people by the throat to show how much bigger he is.
Why wouldn’t he wait then? If he’s waited 12 years so far, why not wait the extra year or two to avoid any charges? He’s instead agreed to plead guilty. Sounds instead like he realized he would never win the stalemate and was tired of house arrest.
Our parents and their parents all tried to conform to a type of idyllic family stereotype that was never attainable. Family members were ignored and ostracized for behaving outside that stereotype. Excuses like “it’s a fad” started specifically because of the need to explain away the behavior without allowing any follow up questions.
It took a long time but we are finally able to embrace our differences and recognize what’s actually normal. Conservatives are still fighting to live that unattainable lifestyle and mad at everyone else cause they can’t.
It’s funny how ignoring homelessness and begging for 100 years hasn’t discouraged it yet.
A monopoly is also called a trust and to quote Wiki: “antitrust law is a collection of mostly federal laws that regulate the conduct and organization of businesses in order to promote competition and prevent unjustified monopolies.”
Trust busting means breaking up corporate monopoly or oligopoly.
Oh, there’s noticeable differences but the people who care don’t know and and the people who know don’t care.
The trickle down is our tears
