Ea-nāṣir is the recipient of the world’s oldest complaint letter. He’s reportedly the worst businessman of the 18th century, a mediocre conman whose actions should have him put out of business. Is this fair?

Here’s a thread on the most up-to-date research on this captivating figure.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s β€œgood” or β€œbad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

Now that everyone is here, we should probably confess it's pronounced "blue-skee" - rhymes with "brewski"

A watercolor coat of arms featuring three stylised pairs of testicles

just found out there was a medieval italian guy called bartolomeo coglioni which means "bartholomew balls" and his coat of arms was three pairs of balls and his war cry was "coglia! coglia! coglia!" which means "balls! balls! balls!"

BetterHelp, for example, only pays therapists for messages that are limited to less than twice the word count of the message written by their client. As one exasperated therapist wrote, if a client says, β€œβ€˜I feel like giving up,’ I have 10 words with which to respond to that or I will be out of compliance and I will not be paid for my work.” 

Talkspace, on the other hand, pays therapists by the word to crank out text messagesβ€”incentivizing quantity over quality and depth. Therapists who don’t respond to an incoming message quickly enough have their pay docked. What matters most in these companies is quick client gratification instead of growth, recurring revenue instead of improved outcomes.

I backed 7th Sea 2e and it's basically unplayable. I'm familiar with a lot of weird rpgs, and have run my share, but 7th Sea 2e is among the least functional. So 1e is probably a good choice.
