Limited liability is one of our weird silences. It's a massive free gift society makes to plutocrats, seldom remarked upon, let alone contested.
Shareholders should have to buy limited liability, like any other insurance. The insurers would then be liable. 🧵

If you told me 10 years ago that I would be having a play-by-play conversation about the ALDS Game 5 in the 15th inning with my good friend Taz I would have said you are completely out of your mind. But here we are.

Get well soon, Taz.

From my hemiplegic migraine group

“You don’t look sick” Thanks that’s the goal. But here is what you don’t see. I cancel plans, I rest for hours after a shower, I forget basic words mid sentence, I grieve a version of myself barely remember, fight everyday against a body that doesn’t cooperate. It is not just tired. It is chronic illness.
