TL;DR: the *actual* poverty line in the US for a family of four with two young children is about $140,000, and there isn't much improvement in quality of life between $40K and $100K.
There's more good stuff in there too, you should read the whole thing.

We’re not small business owners, ffs - we’re independent contractors, and we are routinely robbed by the world’s dumbest dingbats.

It’s so cool to have hitched your wagon 20 years ago to an industry that was booming beyond anyone’s expectations and have it turn out to be stripmined and utterly hollowed out by Shareholder Value, and every other industry you could slot into has been, surprise, hollowed out by Shareholder Value

If you've actually gone grocery shopping recently, it's pretty easy to tell that prices aren't down.

What if Wicked was released in 1900?
Here is my take on the book cover / movie poster using the designs W. W. Denslow and John R. Neill did for L. Frank Baum's original books.
(I made the Witch green more for colour scheme but also it's fairly significant to Maguire's book)

One time when I was newly working at staples, I had a man grab my shirt and yell in my face before pushing me to the floor because I didn’t realize the fax machine needed 9 to dial out and I hadn’t told him. He was wearing a suit.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

A few other late night post-full gear thoughts:
1. Very excited to see where Eddie goes from here.
2. Though I’m a little bummed about Page losing the belt. I’m also very exited to see where the story goes.
3. Page was an incredible champ, especially w/ defending the belt nearly every week. 🤼♂️

2. Hate to see Page lose the title
