I myself find the notion of progress to be rather complicated with some things getting better while others much worse. So as a man I’d be curious to know what general consensus there is among women, here at least, about the idea of the world getting better for women.
Contemplating going to get some vinegar during lunch but…it’s lunch.
Workers rights have not been fought for anywhere near as hard since it was relegated to certain groups in the Church.
“This is a canonical mess,” Murray told EWTN host Raymond Arroyo during an episode of The World Over. “An explanatory note can explain what a decree contains. It can’t add to a decree. So, the decree did not say the priests were excommunicated. Therefore, the explanatory note cannot do that having legal effect.”
What’s yall favorite westerns? I used to binge the fuck out of westerns. I have seen most of John Ford and John Wayne’s movies. A bunch of other ones like How the West was Won and more recent ones like Blood Tomahawk. But in solidarity with native folk I have a hard time thinking about rewatching any of these.
Today I’ve been listening to this song on repeat. I think it captures the bleak reality of life in the west and the difficulty in finding a place to settle for those who were poor at the time.

But our real threat may really come as people flock to trades because they’ve been kicked out of their careers. More apprentices will mean more nonunion and cheaper labor available and ultimately more of us being out of work more often. We shouldn’t be so quick to think just because a robot can’t do our individual job that it won’t have a tremendous effect on our career.
“Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence. “
Which means whoever is in office, the same people are in charge.
It’s true we will always need the trades but the more ai takes away other jobs, the more people will enter careers with less barriers to entry.
That or riot.
Thats gonna mean longer out of work lists for unions, more intermittent and short term employment, larger crews that get more work done faster.
