@Molson_Hart This is a great counterpoint, anyone who can manage a restaurant location can probably put those talents to an even higher pay and more respectable job.
@Empty_America I’ve known accountants who insist on working in the entertainment industry, not because of industry experience (though it does matter), but because of the associated prestige.
@TheLastFarm@aspiringpeasant Most farmers are just regular people who happened to grow up in a family that farms, they didn’t get into it because of some intrinsic love for ecology.
@Molson_Hart@ErikKaiser Seems a difference in definition of innovation that does not differentiate between successful execution. Much of history we only remember the victor, not the originator of an idea or product. Facebook was not first. Kodak invented the CCD, so what? What good is Intel right now?

@rossiadam I remember hearing a comment that all the old schools Disney villains were gay and I’ve never been able to shake that. Aladdin (Jafar), little mermaid (Ursula), 101 Dalmations (Cruella Deville), Lion King (Scar)
