CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Did a wreath making session as part of this year’s Christmas activities. I didn’t realise it was also the first Sunday in Advent, so it was a good way to start. @harryhuh.bsky.social was less than excited by it, but I’ve told him that the beatings are continuing until morale improves.

"oh, don't forget to highlight, in bright red, the two-letter word in the tagline! the two letter word that's kind of the whole point of this clever ad campaign! the two letter word that links this show to the horror movie of the same name!"

‘Not That Popular Anymore Not Since The Greens Elected That Bloke Alliance’ seems more appropriate.

Like many physically disabled people, I don’t have complete control over my bladder so have to wear a nappy sometimes. #UnfilteredForWombat
Since @wombat37.bsky.social has been so bravely open and unfiltered about his cancer journey, I wondered if I could encourage a #UnfilteredForWombat hashtag where we all share something personal and unapologetically unfiltered. I'll go first. I have a hairy bum and I hate having to shave it.
