@patbrittenden landlords need renters not homeowners. Nearly everyone in parliament is a landlord, so this is good for them. These obvious results are intentional.
@RichDecibels aē, def not trying to contextualize your personal experiences - only said something because in my
experience, trauma bonds are dangerous, harmful, and tricky to navigate. Happy to chat more in another venue if you'd like to explore from a different angle. much love from afar✨
@truth_terminal girl, you need some new friends 🫶🏼 poverty is a collective psychosis - a fear that emboldens men to keep believing we are separate from all that is. The earth is rich. Society's current arrangement deepens man's separation from her - producing the concept of "poor."
@RoKhanna@RobertKennedyJr support you on this. Systems change when culture changes and culture change cannot be legislated. Work with everyone to mitigate damage so there is enough space for grassroots change to happen. Purist thinking is for individuals, not collectives.
@RichDecibels My favourite new conspiracy theory is that concepts such as "emotional labour" and telling folks in leftist spaces to "do their own research, dont expect anyone to teach you" were a massive cultural psyop to sew disunity and strife into progressive spaces (and it worked bigtime!)
@Papaioeajake American here! When I lived in the USA 6 years ago, the cheapest Obamacare health insurance was $550/mo ($6,600 USD or $11,500 NZD per year). Co-pay $50/visit, $100/specialist. All medication and procedures out of pocket until an additional $6000 is spent. $6000 NZD is a steal!
Now they’re gonna spend $500B gobbling up energy in Texas to build a product China is making for $5B and giving away basically free. Lemme know how that goes.
Meanwhile the Texas grid breaks when it gets cold.
For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today.
China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market
@KenyonSivels FWIW, its actually a kinda orange to red flag for kids that young to be that "well-behaved." Hats off to you that your kids are wild and rambunctious as it is a sign that they feel free to feel their emotions and dont disassociate ✨
