People have to be really dumb to think that Capitalism makes people rich, it doesn't it just gives all the money to a handful of people.
For instance the USA is the 'richest country in the world'.
But the richest 3 people have more money than the poorest 170 million.

Be careful out there. AI-using bastards are scamming #authors, pretending to be #publishers. And hey, @australia.theguardian.com great story but please retire the term 'vanity publishing'. Independent & self-publishing or can be totally legit & doesn't deserve a sneery-snobby nickname.

lol those stick-on gold bits on the walls.
See that Rolex clock and gold bar?
It looks like those Swiss gifts paid off.
Trump cut tariffs on Swiss goods — like luxury watches — from 39% to 15%.
While Trump’s tariffs increase prices for Americans, billionaire CEOs and foreign companies sucking up to Trump get relief.

We’ve gotten numb to it but Trump threatening NYC voters with federal funding to vote a certain way is the kind of shit that should get him unanimously impeached today. Insane fascist bullshit.

The Oregon Department of Justice submitted multiple video exhibits showing federal officers using extreme force against nonviolent protesters outside the U.S. Immigration & Customs Building. This is part of its effort to block the federal deployment of National Guard troops to Portland.

Obvious to say this, but the actual function of the smear job isn't to make us ask about his aunt, it's to show us the words "hijab" and "9/11" in a headline with his photo.

Maybe the thing that gives me a pulse-pounding throbbing headache is when I think of how techbros sold ChatGPT to universities as ‘revolutionizing’ higher education and our institutions just forked over money without even asking for actual evidence
When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same.
