Can a corporation be any MORE psychotic?

It goes back what my late father used to say - if companies knew how to treat employees, there'd be no need for unions.

In capitalism, this is not a bug or feature, but a basic function.


I've often wondered why race in this country ended up being something that qualified as a 'Diagnostic Tool' in medicine.

Especially considering the following -


Clinical "risk factors" were organized by skin color, and certain diseases were described as if they only belonged to specific groups. The reality was that the actual forces shaping risk, often a person's zip code, the air they breathed, or the structural barriers to resources, were often left out of the conversation. At the time, I didn't have the real understanding and confidence to push back. Race was presented to us as an objective, biological truth rather than the sociopolitical construct it is and has always been.

The return of hockey.

I had to do a screenshot because of a known bug in Blogger - copying text or images from anywhere automatically gets pasted in the Post UI with a white background. When I did a search in HTML mode, I found I'd have to clear it 25 times.

So I went with an image instead.



Attention Google - NO, I don't want to try your new features.

What I want is for you to fix things that were once working and aren't now.

For example, in the mobile version of Blogger, one used to have one's Labels to add (when signed in).

That's not been working for a few years now.

A great overview of 'color revolutions' and what they really are.

My only critique of this is the use of the term 'regime change'.

It's really overthrowing foreign governments.
