@chimeraxmachina It’s not capitalism doing that btw

It’s living standards

@TTabularium @haileesmartini Yeah Superman did fine in the box office

But it did have a cultural rift, and fans still want the return of Cavill.

Not good grounds to build a Cinematic Universe on

But it was a box office success tho

@telebubbies399 Lots of things

Gaussian splats + lidar scans of my home, plus a 3d resin printer => it's building organizers and decor that I'm electroplating with brass.

Used it with my grandfather's Xrays and it caught things the Drs missed; insurance now covering treatments

@BladeoftheS They do not justify poverty wage; it defines the cure for poverty wages.

Solve the competition problem.

@DrMario1975 Poor people can buy soda.

That's not the same as charities giving soda to people.

@Vesmic87 @Gordon_CRE If they are taxed, then they care more about the waste.

The USA could lose 90% of its federal spending and still have enough to solve our problems.

The reason we can't is because of waste, fraud, and abuse.

@Gordon_CRE Rory Southerland hit the nail on the head with this one.

If you really are doomed to an income tax
Then give everyone a flat rate

BUT

Every person gets a lump-sum lifetime deductable of 500k, or something to that effect.

@0cPlights No just @Invariance_Tech specifically; he'll be the slave; he volunteered after all.

@MESA_DrBurnS Blaming zionism for your tastes being unpopular is some WILD level of derangement.

I really liked Kyle Chandler's Lanterns
David Corenswet was a decent Superman

But the writing still engaged in moral subversion, which ruined the franchise......again.....

@Barbonius @Q_Review Jontron was prophetic in this manner.

The anti-racists had the legitimate moral highground until they turned to counter-racism as a tactic.

@xoeeie Labor shortage.

the medical union created an artificially scarce accreditation system under the guise of raising standards.

Many people do not make it through the accreditation system.

It was created to inflate job demand.

It was maintained by eroding job quality.

@HAmorata Honestly the older I get

The more I realize that every healthy member of every group is deeply frustrated with their group.

To be any other way is to either be in denial, or be part of the muck.

Humans are not a bell curve, they are a pareto curve.

@FelicityKay The goal is not to keep people alive, that's WHY harm reduction has such a bad reputation.

The goal is to find the people who will *eventually* stop using, and accelerate their path.

And to avoid helping the people that will never stop.

@God_Questioner fetus can't consent, it's not possible to have a consensual abortion.

@LudwigNverMises Escalate exponentially until capitulation enough becomes inevitable or obsolete.

@LentilPawsRex @GBNT1952 The missiles just had the wrong payload.

What payload would solve this problem?

🤔

@Variety Transgender men and women are legally considered men and women.

Nothing has changed.
