No, I’m saying the board (or whoever hires the CEO) should pay less, and take someone qualified who would accept it. You don’t see software engineers making six million a year, because that’s not good value for the money. But as I said, it’s a joke- the rich have class solidarity like no one else. They look out for their own.
Most CEOs don’t produce much of value.
Yeah but like… so what? Hire someone who’s good at the job for a reasonable rate. Let your competitors blow millions on high comp CEOs, and invest that money you saved in your business.
Except that’s a joke - it’s all a circle jerk where the ownership class pays themselves well.
Many right-wingers don’t care about words or truth or consistency. They just want to hurt their out-group.
Magical Diary is a fun little game about being a teenage girl that goes to wizard school. There’s 2 but I only played one: https://store.steampowered.com/app/211340/Magical_Diary_Horse_Hall/
My time at Portia and my time at Sand Rock are pretty chill. They’re kind of like Stardew but 3d, and I liked them more. It has some fighting but it’s very PG cartoon-ish. It has a major mechanic where you just hang out with the NPCs, or go on dates with them. The second game, sand rock, is better but they’re both good: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1084600/My_Time_at_Sandrock/
Have you by chance read the comic Watchmen?
Probably better than getting the death penalty for allegedly shooting the CEO dead, but yeah there’s no risk-free way of getting rid of the the worst sorts of people.

That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not my fault. <-- here
And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

I hope all the republicans realize what horrible people they are before they die.
I’m told the best way to kill someone and get away with it is to hit them with your car. Not, like, drive into a crowd of people, but like nail them when they’re crossing the street or walking near the side of the road. Especially if they’re walking or on a bike. You can just say you didn’t see them or whatever, and our car-focused culture will be like “yeah ok that happens.”
So hypothetically if any healthcare CEOs are out jogging in their suburbs, someone could run them over and maybe not even be charged with a crime.
a state he won with 64% of the vote in last year’s presidential election
64% of Arkansas voters deserve to absolutely, relentlessly, get fucked. Sucks for everyone else, though.
Hasn’t every republican been worse for the economy since like Nixon? Why do people think Republicans are so good?
Removed by mod
If more people had voted against him, we wouldn’t be in this situation.
It would be illegal to set that house on fire and shoot them when they run outside. I’m sure some people would mourn the death of some flag waving nazi sympathizers. (I think this is one of those instances that only allows you to be pro state violence, anything else is gauche.)
Gotta start removing more Republicans from power, too. Use that 14th amendment to clear most of them out.
The poll finds 35% of Americans approve of the way Musk is handling his job in the Trump administration
35% of people are liars or idiots
On the other hand, we wouldn’t have climate collapse and microplastics.
It’s all about emotions and in-group belonging. All of us are subject to that, to some extent. But for some people it’s the dominant force in their lives. I don’t know how to fix that, because it seems kind of deeply baked in.
I ran linux mint for a couple months. It was nice. Very few problems.
Unfortunately, when I tried to install it on this newer desktop it was a shit-show. No wifi or ethernet, no hdmi, it crashed when I tried to play elden ring. I should try another distribution, but I was so distressed after two days I just rolled back. The people in the mint discord were helpful, though, and got some of the problems fixed.
Windows sucks though.
I don’t think the working class is taking out $10mm personal loans against their stock portfolios. And if you do it with a progressive model, smaller players won’t be impacted much or at all. Otherwise, if it’s being used like income it should be taxed like income.
I don’t think the rich people’s “resources” are that useful if they can’t turn them into fungible money. Can’t eat Tesla stocks. They have power through other mechanisms like access and owning platforms, but money is a big part of it. They can spend money on elections, on bribes, on buying platforms. So I’m not really sure what you meant by the distinction between resources and money.
Saint Luigi deliver us from these horrible “justices”
