https://twitter.com/ByMikeBaker/status/1455730582130806785 $500 pay-per-view autopsies as part of the Oddities and Curiosities Expo and this body was donated by the funeral home to "medical research". It's a cousin to the "corpses used to test military munitions" a while back.

What the gently caress? This is like some Victorian era penny dreadful poo poo. I mean, I'd be ok with that if the money went to my family afterwards (my current plan is to be cremated, the urn strapped to the biggest firework they can find, then shoot it off over the grand canyon and run like hell), but can you imagine the phone calls to get this thing arranged? "Hello, I'd like to rent a meeting room. By the way, do you have a policy for biohazard disposal? Is that covered by your arrangements staff or do we have to do it?" e: hopefully it wasn't dinner and a show

So QAnon has figured out why JFK Sr. wasn't at Dealey Plaza on Tuesday. Turns out he was busy with a prior enagagement at the Cotton Bowl. Playing guitar for the Rolling Stones. They think Keith Richards is JFK. https://www.indy100.com/celebrities/qanon-supporters-jfk-jr-rolling-stones-b1951467

Flashback to a year ago when liberals were convinced Trump would face consequences for his corruption once he left office. Like almost everything liberals predict, that hasn't happened, but there's no time for introspection - we're only a year from the next election day, and it's the most important election in our lifetimes

As in all of these situations, probably not going to cheer about the Portnoy thing until something sticks. It feels like 2 years of people dancing around him being a creep. e: He feels like a guy that watched Wolf of Wall Street and said he could do better.

This sounds depressingly plausible, although will be interesting to see how it interacts with the recent attempts by rural areas to tempt high wage WFH jobs to move out to the low cost of living corners of the country. https://twitter.com/edzitron/status/1456355165699665935

doubt that narrative is gonna hold up because a lot of the conservative anti-vax pushback is from people who say they're WFH, thus, they don't need the vax because they're not endangering anyone from the company

The loudest "Bring 'em back!" guy in my office says he is liberal. Personally I think if you want to recruit and retain talent you are going to have to offer some form of WFH in the future.

Legalize weed, provide mental and physical health services, provide low cost housing. The % that remain brain washed after getting most of their basic needs met will solve themselves through a combination of horse medicine and bad gun safety. This of course will never happen, because republicans need people to be full of vitriol to have voters outside of rich white people and democrats need the money of the aforementioned rich white people

The QAnon poo poo is a net made out of fish hooks. Someone gets caught on the periphery, and any attempt they make to free themselves just gets them entangled in said net all the worse. The only way out is when they turn on each other, because any attempt to break them up from the outside just feeds into their martyr and persecution complexes. It's a self-perpetuating conspiracy culture. The fact that there are so many of them make them feel like even if they're wrong, they're still a member of a ~community~. It's the same with the flat earthers. Their families and friends reject them because they try to ~convert~ them, so all they eventually have left are their fellow believers.

Fallom posted:I swear to God I will die on the hill of thinking its extremely hosed up that everyone profits off of body donations except the family Yeah man, there is a whole closet industry around medical research, and it's super hosed up and needs to be regulated badly. There is a huge market for indigent people, basically these companies pay for basic body handling services in exchange for being able to use the corpse for medical research, then they lop the head off, quarter the torso, and sell the chunks to different companies. Also funeral homes can get kickbacks when Aunt Doris is convinced to donate her body instead of being buried. I think whole corpses mostly go to universities, but I'm not that familiar with that side of the thing. Also corpses can be sold for really cheap, like I think you can buy a quarter for like $500, and there isn't any regulation on how bodies are handled and disposed that I know of, most places I've seen at least treat the bodies like proper bioburden when they are done with them. I really think the family should get some kick back or something when a body is sold.

Yeah I def. see it being plausible that some notable idiots are gonna start throwing this around on Fox News and what not, but a lot of companies are already looking at it from a "Wait, we can save how much?!?" by not having to maintain an office space for every single employee. Current employer has all but said it's going to be a permanent fixture once our merger goes through, and a rather large financial org I just interviewed with was hiring specifically for people to WFH. It's gonna be a thing the usual suspects whine about, but it's too late to cram the toothpaste back into the tube with this one. The only places forcing everyone to come in 9-5 for pure office work with no real client facing roles are going to end up having retention and recruiting issues. Yahoo got away with it in 2013 because it was the exception, not the norm. Not anymore. Handsome Ralph fucked around with this message at 03:57 on Nov 5, 2021 |

Tech is staying remote, there's no going back now. Any company that tries to go back on that will see an exodus of employees and they won't have any trouble finding another job that is remote. Other white collar industries where workers don't have the same leverage, we'll have to wait and see. If some executives decide they want to see asses in seats, a lot of people aren't really going to have any choice but to get their asses in seats.

Handsome Ralph posted:a lot of companies are already looking at it from a "Wait, we can save how much?!?" by not having to maintain an office space for every single employee. The main arguments this scenario that people give me are: A) racist: "lol, no one from Bolivaria is smart enough to code" B) "cultural" (still racist, just possible less overtly so): "companies look to create a unique culture that a worker in Bolivia just could never fit into because they're foreign and probably don't speak English well" C) willfully blind about capitalism: "my country's tax code and regulation of international trade make this effectively impossible no, I've never heard of companies forcing through changes to the tax code or trade policy that advantage their bottom lines at the expense of the worker" And sure, workers in high cost of living countries don't "deserve" a higher quality of life than their counterparts abroad, but allowing capital to destroy all the labor concessions in those countries by abandoning those employment markets en masse would lead toward one hell of a dystopian future. I'm all for everyone having the opportunity to work from home as needed, but seeing all the enthusiasm for permanent remote work is like watching folks sprint jubilantly toward a cliff.
