Honestly why are you as a billionaire using the $20 mass affluent Whole Foods olive oil at all? You should have a grove of 300 year old heritage olive trees in Tuscany pressed exclusively by your twink slaves’ feet at that point.

“We all saw what happened to Target.”

Everybody has already said but this really is a remarkable ruling. Reagan appointee basically begging the Trump admin to step back from the ledge.

Delighted to be quoted here today

Seen in Pittsburgh

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

all of these articles about how the big banks are "preparing" for a world of 3C are being way too credulous that that is a thing they can actually do

Take that, nerd! We don't want to fund your woke Marxist research on "relieving stress and anxiety in adolescents." Children are the future and the future should feel bad.

Unusually nuanced and thoughtful on the current state of corporate climate action, with many thoughts from me www.thetimes.com/article/eac1...

Last was "Higher Ground" by @followalisont.bsky.social (👋), who merges academic research w/real world expertise to create an extremely useful and timely book that everyone in management and corporate governance needs to read. Highly recommend Full review: bookwyrm.social/user/bwaber/... (5/5)

“Bezos has now created a situation in which essentially everything published on the opinion pages of the Post will be seen as broadly representative of his personal views. I can’t imagine why any proprietor would want to leave that impression. Did Bezos really think this through?”

What a front cover...

Also wrote about Jeff Bezos' nonsense with the WaPo's Opinion section, and just how fundamentally stupid it is. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/27/j...

👉 "In the 2010s, there was a sense that #SiliconValley was different, it had a rarefied culture. Now you’re just like any other union-busting top-down conglomerate." @followalisont.bsky.social @nyusterncbhr.bsky.social www.ft.com/content/6bad...

“In the 2010s, there was a sense that Silicon Valley was different, it had a rarefied culture,” said Alison Taylor, a clinical associate professor at NYU. “Now you’re just like any other union-busting top-down conglomerate.” www.ft.com/content/6bad...

"What we are seeing under way is not so much the death of diversity, but the decisive collapse of the myth that your career can mirror your values, or that your job might love you back". www.thebanker.com/content/1800...

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

If only we had a word for a shape with three sides.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Corporate values often seem like a PR stunt — X supports the troops, Y wants to end racism — based on where companies calculate the "right" answer is at any given moment. What's "right" often means "whatever will generate the most cash for shareholders" www.aol.com/americas-big...

“What he’s saying is you’ve had a giant failure, you’ve also had a diversity program, therefore the diversity program’s the cause of the failure,” said Alison Taylor. “And we all know that that is not true.” God this is pissing me off. news.bloomberglaw.com/esg/from-air...
