Run us our check Chuck. Slavery's economic benefits are well documented in y'alls economies. Slap the cash value on your national debt permanently and run the interest payments to the plantation colonies.
The New York Times@nytimes.com · 17h agoKing Charles III on Tuesday expressed “profound personal sorrow” and “horror” over Britain’s role in the trans-Atlantic slave trade. He told leaders of the country’s former colonies that the consequences of that dark history still “resonate with contemporary force.” nyti.ms/47YHzUQ
Let them. Plenty good alternatives and my hot take is we need less of this tech in K-12 schools.

I think both things are bad. Adobe sort of deserves it but also I don't think the people who work to develop these tools should have that work stolen

Watched a great documentary "Life & Debt" which goes into how the Clinton Admin fucked over the developing Caribbean nations by petitioning the WTO to force Europe to dismantle the market protections for Caribbean grown Bananas. This was almost 30 years ago.
Lupita Nihongo@otsumamiboy.blacksky.app · 2d agoThey literally don’t believe in the free market principles they espouse. It’s just propaganda. The truth is they just want to be the only ones allowed to make all the money & they don’t want the consumer to have any choice.
NYT doing a spectacular job of both-sidesing a very one sided issue once again.

Inside the Abdul El-Sayed-Haley Stevens Meltdown in Michigan
The relationship shattered in part because of Israel, but also because of [highlight] their [/highlight] sensitive egos and hurt feelings. The split had been months in the making.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:u45hqzk7counfbwyg5edhmvi/bafkreibyaiz7il4xvnivc6djzxvrmdd42hi3ei2ofvx66ob4wf3fumejni)
I am triggered because she and Mike Rodgers are using a Black church to do this foolishness. It is targeted racism while she screams antisemitism. If she wanted to play this game, she could have left Black people out of it. But Black folks won't be swayed. They only see that she can't be trusted.
🇬🇾🗽Sydette The Dreaded Gorgon🗽🇬🇾@blackamazon.bsky.social · 3d agoI think I’m semi triggered by Haley Steven’s because ..it’s so common for someone to agree to respecting the rules of interaction Then to flip out because you get something teh believe you don’t deserve And watch people “hear them out” You know how many emails I have like that letter she sent.
do not funnel your grief over this death into trek and x-men merch, paramount & disney dont need your money. go to plays, give to charities, vote for candidates who will fund public art, and you will make it possible for people like patrick stewart to exist and keep existing. a rising tide lifts all
Jessica Ritchey@jmritchey.bsky.social · 6d agoIf you want more Patrick Stewarts, then you publicly fund the arts and learning programs, so that working class kids can find their way into making a career in them.

IMO I don't think including unlimited playtime was a sustainable business model. I think we need to stop advocating for this illusion that these things are cheap to the point of free and really appreciate the costs. We end up paying one way or another, best to be up front with it.

I don't think we understand the global threat that these people pose. Not just Musk (He's the loudest) but when you have individuals who have access and control to wealth that dwarfs nations, they are an existential threat to society.
