Experimenting with post-work life.

@AndyGJBurge @Conservatives There does seem to be a weird sort of Future Lottery Winner group, too. “When I become filthy rich, I don’t want the taxman siphoning off my newfound lucre to pay for worthy cause x”

@PeterDiamandis @elonmusk @dvorahfr I think this confuses mean and median lifespans. Childhood mortality was super high, but adults tended to live fairly long lives for most of history as far as I know.

@carbonlolly @Mylovanov I think the original tweet meant people gave up human rights and freedoms in exchange for security and stability…

@evanlapointe That which makes certain actions or behaviours “obviously” right or wrong.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@kwonseo @Carnage4Life This. I’d say of 100 workers, 10 take the credit for 50% of the work.

@LisaSellAuthor Naughty Elephants Spray Water is the one I remember.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

Oh dear, some poor marketer at @wagamama_uk printed up a few million of these, I'm guessing...

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@Dorianlynskey If your proposed policy only works if everyone gets behind it, and is opposed by almost half of the people, it doesn’t stand much chance of success, does it?

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@Steven_Lanham @Michael1979 Just give them each a ball so they don’t have to spend all that time chasing after the same ball. It’s demeaning.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@360Art_Design @martinocchio @jeremycorbyn As with anything, it's a little nuanced, and requires businesses to adapt, but generally see Seattle's example: https://t.co/FBEgXWFYIx or more generally on minimum wage intro in the UK: https://t.co/RcSvrhGD14

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@cristo_radio @TalkTV @RMTunion Well, if public sector workers are paid more, then everyone’s wages eventually go up, due to competition for staff, but company profits get squeezed. I think a high wage economy is a better goal than a race to the bottom.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@MSalem26 @Gillian_Hab @BetoMedia @BetoORourke Yeah - I agree it’s nutso, but that’s the best I could come up with to answer the Why question.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@Gillian_Hab @BetoMedia @BetoORourke If you start from the POV that you need a gun in your day to day life (hunting, etc) then it’s natural to want the “best” gun, whatever that is. I imagine it’s like being told MacBooks are now illegal so you have to use a crappy pc.

@darthothedead42 @Sandman_Netflix I think this might be Hankley Common in Surrey. I distinctly remember cycling past this spot a while back with those creepy cross things. The location is used for loads of filming.

@tdempsey100 @Paul_Briley @Oliveoyl60 @campbellclaret Unfortunately we’d first need a government with the integrity to create such a constitution. Imagine the pathetic rag we’d get if this shower wrote it.

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@DeborahMeaden I first read that as “shaved” and rather preferred it that way!

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@jaggedlines @trisweb @dburka @andybudd Missing the cost of maintaining all the failed features though (and/or the reputational impact of shipping mostly poor features).

[Miro Walker @mirowalker]

@baratheongirl @RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret @RoryStewartUK Yeah - longer terms might help, but I’d quite like to see the messy coalition-based tangle that you see in EU countries with PR. Less room for party lines to dominate.
