And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

The idea that sexual abuse is part of “private” life instead of a public crisis has done incalculable damage. Anti-rape activists have to fight to even make it possible to expose sexual abuse as a wrongdoing in public without being silenced and undermined. That fight is far from won

very kind of hermitcraft to start their 11th season while i'm in recovery from surgery so i have a ton of pleasant new videos to watch while confined to my bed

my activities while staving off recovery stir-craziness: finishing my reread of The Fifth Season, watching roughly two movies every day (morning watched alone and evening with someone else), completing a bookstore diorama, finished reading two graphic novels, starting to knit a new pair of socks
i knew this ahead of time but its really hitting me "staying in bed so the surgical site can heal" is going to be the most difficult part. i need to put my full focus into not getting bored
