While You Sleep - The Bamboo's

It captures a mood and moment that I can't describe all that well, but that I can imagine crystal clear.

Just make sure you listen to her new stuff, she gets nothing from the old stuff, I think.

New stuff is wild though, she certainly aged alongside me and I'm hear for it.

#ProblemsOfTheUpper-Lowers

Because I want to helpful: if you are moving to a home large enough for you to feel that an intercom is needed, then the cost associated with having a simple system installed would be the best way to maintain your privacy, well, your privacy to those without physical access to your home at least.

I can't think of any intercom-related reason that outweighs the needless additional network load, nightmarish privacy policies, and instant gratification through retail buttons, that a network of echo's could provide.

You should hire a nicely-dressed and polite person to simply relay your messages in person. And while not needed, they could be tending to other tasks, like your laundry or maybe tending the garden...

This exact thing is very popular in prison according to some family members.

To some degree, yes. But its also a direct product of the systems starting point as well. Arguably, not changing anything is the best thing to keep the system in their favor for as long as possible.

What I'd argue is the "decision" they individually make, is to what degree they allow the suffering caused by their actions to be actually linked to them in the public eye. You have people like elon who are on the extreme end of unapologetic assholery, and then there are the people of equal or greater wealth who we cannot even name. I think that's the core decision that the ultra wealthy make that affects society the most. Loud out and proud makes for a very clear and, to some degree understood, target for everything from legislation to pitchforks and torches. Quiet and Guarded makes for less "fun" and likely drives some of the large losses in wealth (chasing the big number for its brain feels gets increasingly risky).

I could go on and on about my amatuer class theory, but I'll spare the rest. While all of this is important to consider at times of great change, I'd like to point out that I don't find this aspect of examining class warfare to be helpful without the will and leadership to enact change.

I think this and similar ideas were more of an post-implementation discovery that now drives refused change of said systems. The idea that some grand plan has been in effect from any starting point is where absurdity is introduced.

The wealthy, ie the powerful, cannot even agree within their circle on much, and the entire personality that reaches said level isn't known for thorough meticulous loyalty to a group plan.

I seem to be alright with the daily 500+

So I'm sure I'm an outlier

The question is, how much can they truly defend?

Sure, a few derps they already pay would stay and defend them, but how many are we really talking? How many will stand against the turning tide of just and equitable voices?

Eat the rich

Hi, I used to a lot, but lack the financial means to currently.

I started in school, and I loved it so much I had my teacher fail me twice just so I could retake it. My retakes were a mix of TA work and whatever project I felt like doing.

Since then, Ive made a few clay based projects, as well as dabbling in wooden sculpture. I'm currently unhoused, but I imagine it will again be a part of my life once I'm back on my feet.

If i'm not on several already, then I'm not doing things right as it is.

Eat the rich!

Especially this kind of Info... I want it blasted all over my ti.... feed.
