UBI, Allows our labor to be properly valued by the market

Ending work or starve

UBI empowers Labor by

breaking the chains that make you stay

Fear of starving, not having the rent, losing insurance

It will make employers treat people like people

living wage is BS

Work must be by Choice

Living wage? What of the laughing wage. How much is the loving wage. Tell me that

That is definitely part of it! I myself have occasionally not read the session description!

I always smile and just carry on; hopefully next time they read the session description more carefully!

The times I’ve sat down to run my own game at a convention, and had someone just fully explain what roleplaying is, /and what PBTA is/, are not zero. The look on their faces when halfway through they realize the name on the badge and the name on the book is the same name? Wild.

:stares directly into the camera in “they best not”

I should practice that, perhaps.

:flips table in “was an EMT on campus in college” solidarity.

Follow up question: Does it super annoy you the way it super annoys me?

Hey, what’s one thing you know about lot about that people habitually try to explain to you?

Trees. Most of the time these days it’s trees.

If you’re going to #Metatopia2025, Come hang out with us!

Not an answer......

Dang! That's such a good point!

What's giving you hope today? What's pushing or puling or driving or carrying you onward?

I love this woman so much…

They sure seem to be continuing on in Chicago just fine.

Fox propaganda is obvious and only works on the uninformed

While you and I are worried about our healthcare premiums going up, the cuts to Medicaid that will force so many rural hospitals to close, making sure that those serving our country get paid...

Republican Senators are going to a LUXURY GOLF RESORT for a fundraiser during the Government Shutdown

I’m psyched for this.

Naturally!

Kickstarter United is on strike! We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking A codified 4-day work week. We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work. Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers. We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.

One of my heroes from childhood is #JaneGoodall
I’m very saddened to hear of her death. It would be a great tribute to her legacy if we could, y’know, save the planet and extend compassion to other species that we share it with.

We’re lining up all the things for the launch, and it’s going to be cool. Also hard and sharp and agro and weird.

if you aren’t super tuned into COVID news it is unlikely you know just how easily the newest variant spreads.

vaccinate. mask. act like it is 2021. or you are probably going to get it. (ask me how i know!)

I'm taking some comfort in knowing this admin is a relatively small number of couple hundred currently powerful people, & we are a nation of 343,000,000 people with the lasting power of the Constitution, actually fairly robust bureaucracy, & a habit of being Real Loud & Ungovernable when needed.
