Not all jobs are bullshit of course. Yours is much needed. But that was just an example for of the argument, the core remains. Job-centric culture and chronic exhaustion is a social issue regardless of your personal experience.

We don’t need a paid job to in order to work and be productive. We can volunteer to make a better society or do something creative. We need to stop making the equivalence between free time=mindless media consumption. Also, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit_Jobs

The problem is we need the job money and getting it leaves us so exhausted we restore to lay down and watch a screen. But this is a situation created by the job-centric culture, not solved by it.

I’ve just made an UBI community since there wasn’t any on lemmy:

It’s the representation of the sovereign authority from the classic cover for Thomas Hobbes’ Leviathan

But how would you know when something is funny then? (canned laughter)

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Then it looks quite redundant. Do you have any link on how to access matrix with a fedi user?

Advantages/differences over matrix.org chat?

Forgot the dump part on the pump/dump scam he got into

In Spain nobody uses SMS since 2010’s (or iMessage), IM’s go mostly on WhatsApp and lately some Telegram

Man I loved YTP… Good mindless laughs. Still rewatch some classics today.

The illusion of infinite growth on “free use” ad based business dies when investment funds demand more benefits from former startups now turned into corporations whose only asset of value is the their users’ data. You are the product, so it’s time to squeeze you.

I think such data is currently overvalued on a overgrown ad-targeting market with too many competitors, and adding more ads only devaluates each ad value further, because users’ consuming capacity also has a limit. So I see a severe correction coming. Another bubble burst, and another crisis inside the crisis that late capitalism itself is.
