  6. I still remember that my therapist suggested something to me, like, not because I don't have anything to offer in exchange for money. It's more because my qualities are not being rewarded (honesty, patience, and many more).

  11. CW: CW: AI, strong language

    Really, I have had quite enough of AI being shoved into every bloody thing.

    AI is unethical. It kills jobs. It concentrates power and wealth in the hands of people who already have far too much of both.

    And yet a certain type of person seems to fervently believe that the answer to every conceivable problem is: MORE AI.

    My fridge has a door. It does not need a fucking chatbot.

    Fucking clankers. 🙄

  15. Been told to drop your side hustle "or else"? On a UK zero-hours contract, exclusivity clauses banning outside work are legally void — unenforceable regardless of what's signed. On a standard contract, your employer needs a genuine conflict of interest, not just a preference. Most blanket bans don't hold up legally.

  20. CW: CW: AI, job loss, economic precarity

    A small reminder of my article about how AI is already destroying people's livelihoods right now.

    This isn't some distant dystopian future where robots might perhaps take our jobs one day. For many of us, it's happening already.

    I'm a translator. I have watched AI steadily nibble away at my work, my clients, and my income. And behind all the cheerful talk of innovation and progress, there are real human beings wondering how the hell they're supposed to pay their rent.

    I am one of them.

    My article is about that reality - the one always missing from the shiny AI brochures and the techbro drivel.

    Good work Michael West. BHP is an evil company.

    Just pay your workers when they are injured. Using Labour hire companies does don’t exempt you when workers are injured at work.

  28. The Democrats’ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering

    The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties — especially the Democrats — turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went without pay, vital services were halted, and millions of Americans were left hanging in uncertainty. All for what? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. When the dust […]

  29. A great analysis of why liberal socialist universality (anti-woke left) will not liberate us, flattens the class war, undermines workers' rights, hampers solidarity, and, last but not least, is now also a footsoldier of fascism.

  30. This is also why South Korea has started (long ago) to import very cheap labor from the region.
    Laborers they treat as bad as on the Arabian peninsula.
