    All jobs are service industry now unless you’re somebody’s kid or relative. Things changed bigly over the last 20 years.

    Newsmedia that repeat blatantly pro-fash talking points as headline grist, are complicit

    Got laid off. I now have two jobs. One at a store for the health insurance. Which I’ll lose in an upcoming strike. Which is most likely to happen. Because fuck corporate. Then I have my start up job that is a side job till they can afford to pay me salary. I make all commissions now. But sales are a tough thing to get in this field. Thankful for Ai to help email so many people.

    Meanwhile the unemployment rate continues to be troublingly low, begging the question, “If not for immigration, who’s going to fill the new fancy All-American manufacturing industries?”

    Congress need to fix big and large companies from firing people in masses every quarter and not hire people.

    As a young man, I’m just waiting for the AGI breakthrough, so it either fixes the fucking government, or wipes us out. Win-win.

    Sometimes the only way to win is not to play.

    But also Johnson is stupid.

    I thought they were breaking into your basement to tell you they won’t watch your kid and you still have to buy them health insurance

    Mike, just cause you’re a shit parent who can’t talk to his kid, doesn’t mean you gotta make the rest of us suffer.

    Cool. Until there is no more profit and no more billionaires, there should be no labor and free healthcare.

    Lol. I have free healthcare and I played videogames every fucking chance I get because it makes me happy, but it’s pretty rare since I worked 278 hours in May.
