Billionaires are parasites, and they consume more value by living in California than they return to the economy. They want the social benefits, the location, the connections, but they do not want to fund them.
Let them fuck off to Wyoming and enjoy no-tax paradise in the middle of fucking nowhere.

If billionaires contributed enough to a California's economy to matter, they wouldn't be billionaires.
Individuals hoarding cash and taking out loans based on stock valuations contribute very little to society. You'd think the New York Times would get that, but I suppose they're paid not to now.

The fact that the governmental bodies outlawing our healthcare are now pushing the term "sex rejection procedures" is a tacit admission of the reality that sex can be changed.

You *can* change your sex. That is the entire reason that transition care is being demonised, vilified, erased, and outlawed. Because this fact makes cis people uncomfortable.
Deal with your own discomfort without denying biological reality.

Coke's AI ad from last year the creative agency revealed that they had to generate 85 minutes of footage just to find 15 usable seconds.
Everyone who attempts making an AI ad quickly discovers it's actually far MORE work and cost to make usable than just going out and shooting the damn thing.

Always hilarious to see ppl realize that even the most benign piece of media is the outcome of many many hours work and decision making, and slopping loads of shit together with no direction somehow doesn't quite feel the same - probably spent more on this than a normal ad

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.
