I think one way to move on that direction is employee-owned businesses. There's still a profit motive, but it's secondary to the treatment of the employees and their values.

Don't eat the rich. TAX THEM.

German experiment gave people a basic monthly income – the effect on their work ethic was surprising | CNN A German experiment has found that people are likely to continue working full-time even if they receive no-strings-attached universal basic income payments.

A 3-year experiment in Germany showed that when people were given a universal basic income of over $1,000 a month, they did not give up their full time jobs. www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/h...

I think the first season of Hemlock Grove is an excellent stand-alone story. It doesn't get enough love.

Nosferatu: Just another story about a girl and her supernatural ex.

People are more likely to believe a statement if it rhymes. I find this both devastating and adorable.

I think the next great question for this research is:

Is it the non-masking that causes the reduction in suicide, or is it being in a social environment where the person is accepted as they are and thus don't need to mask that causes the reduction in suicide?

I suspect it's the latter.

Counterpoint:
What if you use your hurts to become the kind of person you needed, so you can help others who have similar hurts?

When assessing for suicide risk, try asking "What's the closest you've come to suicide?" rather than "Have you ever made a suicide attempt?". You'll get a deeper, more nuanced response.
