US #wealth inequality is shockingly high: the tiny 9%square in the corner? That's half the US population! Poor. What happens when #AI really kicks in? #mckinsey #ginicoefficient #wealthinequality #socialism #UBI

Applause to @HowardMarks for this OpEd, in which he takes an honest look at #AI, the #globaleconomy and links to #unemployment and #socialunrest. People need purpose in life. What does AI offer? #oaktree #realtalk www.oaktreecapital.com/insights/mem...

Imagine this is on your webpage (yes, all caps) OUR USP IS THE ENTREPRENEURIAL SCAR TISSUE ON OUR BACKS. #LinkedinLunatics #corporateamerica #startups

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days. Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend. Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

Avoiding #Amazon will be hard this #Christmas but its the right thing to do.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

you see ladies? We can compete and excel at men in all fields! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise: 😂 www.latimes.com/california/s...

The House will be out again next week. That's 20 work days in 19 weeks.

Hoping #Mamdani starts using #Blockchain to track public infrastructure bids, expenses, and timelines. Talk about a new era of govt transparency and accountability!

Unpopular opinion, if your #customerservice is an app, or online "communities" you're not providing customers any service. "DIY" tech support - especially for subscription services - is NOT acceptable. #saas

Did the real @rbreich.bsky.social like my posts? Wow! 🤩 Not sure if I should faint (possibly his biggest fan!) ...or ask him to endorse my book "Virtual Natives" (Wiley) 😂 Robert - the book is largely about how Gen Z is employing technology because our economic system has failed them.

so... im in #group7 💅

Will #AI be regional? Should it be? #Animoca Ceo says different regions may prepare their own #AI infrastructure. #kbcw

China's Global Governance Initiative is expressly "people first" for economic development- and even migration. which explains this:

🍏: its THINNER! Me: Leave me alone #appleevent

instead of asking, where is #Trump we need to watch people like #PeterThiel. The donors will know before we do. They are the signal. Always watch the money. #whereistrump #trumphealth

Do you think a conversation with would be "normal"? Or Bezos? Or jobs? Outliers are odd. If you think differently, you may get this a lot; I know I do. 😂

it must take a special type of lawyer to work with #TreyParker And #MattStone - #southpark

Watching a tribute to #sammydavis on youtube. The 1980s had #eddiemurphy crushing the box office, #arsenio had his own show; #miketyson dominated boxing; supermodel #iman... so much #blackexcellence. What happened???? #blacksky

Nothing says #authoritarianism like co-option of the media. Media suppression is a serious threat to democracy and freedom of expression. Good job #cbs! This is your legacy. You did this. @paramountcbs.bsky.social #thelateshow #colbert

@pbsnews.org is facing an existential threat from a wildly destructive and unpredictable authoritarianism regime....🔥 Also Pbs news: "tonight we're reporting on how this small Tunisian village is battling climate change" #cnn #bbc #theguardian #media

Penguins and pandas make me happy. Thats the tweet.

#Trump can't control #Netanyahu no one can. He's untouchable. Does that make that yahoo the most powerful person in the world?

#peace please 🙏🏽

War with #Iran? Against it.

TIL: the US Emergency Quota Act 1921 was designed to bar Southern, Eastern Europeans from entering the USA. Italians and Polish in particular . Asians were excluded altogether. history.state.gov/milestones/1...

New #WhiteHouse website looks like it was made by a 12-year-old with Canva. AI Melania is hysterical

❤️

I could listen to #EzraKlein read the phonebook, discuss a McDonald's menu item, or the lint in your pocket - enraptured. 👀 Just me?

Royal Tenenbaum was a character only #GeneHackman could play. Just rewatched the film in his honor: perfection! RIP

This live #doechi concert is EVEN BETTER than recordings: & the instrumentals are insane!! AWE 🙌🏾 youtu.be/-91vymvIH0c?...

I'm on a Charlie Chaplin binge. "Genius" as a term feels too confining for the magnificence of his artistry, and oeuvre. Just wow. #chapin #film #genius

If #DOGE really wanted to cut costs and corruption they'd insist on blockchain for public projects - construction, defense contracts, space, etc. That would give us glass pane transparency on spending! But Spaceboy wouldn't like that. #tesla #musk

#xLink bitcoin bridge Patis 2025!!!

how #netfix could cancel #kaos, the most beautifully cast, directed and intelligent show in recent history, I'll never understand 😭 I canceled Netflix. You say it doesn't matter but I don't think the world needs another episode of Emily in Paris

...and what dreams does your luggage contain? Which have you lost or misplaced? why am i sad that poetry and tragedy are so interlinked? maybe because my life has been nothing but #travel, luggage and little else. #Idavidlynch

#paris at night

Ni hao, y'all! Meet you at 🈵

#shiota's work at the #grandpalais in paris an elegant commentary on the power and poetry of fire. My heart breaks at images of my city on fire. May the Angels remember they have wings...

Surprise! #Meta had among the biggest decline in Black managers among 84 S&P 100 companies from 2022 to 2023. So now we get this 👇🏾 (McKinsey studies show diversity drives profits, Mark) #technology #ai
