if I've learned anything from grad school it's to check your sources, and this has proven invaluable in the dozens of instances when I've had an MBA-type try to tell me something about finances or leadership. Case in point:

Firefox serves me clickbaity articles through Pocket, which is fine because I like Firefox. But sometimes an article makes me curious. I'm pretty anal about my finances, and I wondered if this article was, as I suspected, total horseshit, or could potentially benefit me and help me get my spending under control. So let's check the article in question.

It mostly seems like common sense. "...track expenses and income for at least a month before setting a budget...How much money do I have or earn? How much do I want to save?" Basic shit like that. But then I get to this section:

This sounds fucking made up to me. And thankfully, they've provided a source to their claim that "research has repeatedly shown" that writing things down changes behavior. First mistake. What research is this?

Forbes, naturally, my #1 source for absolute dogshit fart-sniffing financial schlock. Forbes is the type of website that guy from high school who constantly posts on linkedin trawls daily for little articles like this that make him feel better about refusing to pay for a decent package for his employees' healthcare (I'm from the United States, a barbaric, conflict-ridden country in the throes of civil unrest, so obsessed with violence that its warlords prioritize weapons over universal medical coverage. I digress). Forbes constantly posts shit like this, and I constantly spend my time at leadership seminars debunking poor consultants who get paid to read these claims credulously. Look at this highlighted text. Does it make sense to you that simply writing your financial goals down would result in a 10x increase in your income? Because if it does, let me make you an offer on this sick ass bridge.

Thankfully, Forbes also makes the mistake of citing their sources. Let's check to see where this hyperlink goes:

SidSavara. I've never heard of this site, but the About section tells me that Sid is "a technology leader who empowers teams to grow into their best selves. He is a life-long learner enjoys developing software, leading teams in delivering mission critical projects, playing guitar and watching football and basketball."

That doesn't mean anything. What are his LinkedIn credentials? With the caveat that anyone can lie on Linkedin, Mr. Savara appears to be a Software Engineer. Which is fine! I'm glad software engineers exist! But Sid's got nothing in his professional history which suggests he knows shit about finance. So I'm already pretty skeptical of his website, which is increasingly looking like a personal fart-huffing blog.

The article itself repeats the credulous claim made in the Forbes story earlier, but this time, provides no link for the 3% story. Mr. Savara is smarter than his colleages at Forbes, it's much wiser to just make shit up.

HOWEVER. I am not the first person to have followed this rabbit hole. Because at the very top of this article, there is a disclaimer.

Uh oh!

Sid's been called out before, and in the follow up to this article, he reveals the truth.

You can guess where this is going.

So to go back to the VERY beginning of this post, both Pocket/Good Housekeeping and Forbes failed to do even the most basic of research, taking the wild claim that writing down your budget may increase your income by 10x on good faith and the word of a(n admittedly honest about his shortcomings) software engineer.

Why did I spend 30 minutes to make a tumblr post about this? Mostly to show off how smart I am, but also to remind folks of just how flimsy any claim on the internet can be. Click those links, follow those sources, and when the sources stop linking, ask why.

Yesterday, Palestinian and solidarity organizers disrupted a Biden campaign event 14 times during his speech on the protection of women's rights. These activists called out hypocrisy because Biden and his administration are actively causing a reproductive care catastrophe in Gaza.

50,000 pregnant women do not have access to healthcare in Gaza, and C-sections are being performed without anesthesia. Women and children in Gaza are being killed by U.S.-made and supplied bombs.

described by @winged-wolf-s-collection-of-arts

[ID: Transcription of what the protesters are saying, while security personnel try to get them out:

Israel kills two mothers every hour in Gaza. Ceasefire now! End the genocide! Ceasefire!

Women in Gaza are being murdered. Killing people in Gaza is a war crime. You are a war criminal.

Stop funding genocide! Ceasefire now!

50,000 pregnant women don't have healthcare. Their blood is on your hands. Ceasefire!

Ceasefire now! Stop funding genocide! Gaza is a reproductive issue.

Free, free Palestine!

The end of the video shows article headlines with photos of the protesters or of Joe Biden, from various news organizations:

“The ultra-rich like to tell us that getting rich takes skill, grit and hard work. But the truth is most wealth is taken, not made. So many of the so-called ‘self-made’ are actually heirs to vast fortunes, handed down through generations of unearned privilege. Untaxed billions of dollars in inheritance is an affront to fairness, perpetuating a new aristocracy where wealth and power stays locked in the hands of a few. The capture of our global economy by a privileged few has reached heights once considered unimaginable. The failure to stop billionaires is now spawning soon-to-be trillionaires. Not only has the rate of billionaire wealth accumulation accelerated —by three times— but so too has their power. The crown jewel of this oligarchy is a billionaire president, backed and bought by the world’s richest man Elon Musk, running the world’s largest economy. We present this report as a stark wake up-call that ordinary people the world over are being crushed by the enormous wealth of a tiny few.”

- Oxfam International Executive Director Amitabh Behar.

Oxfam predicts there will be at least five trillionaires a decade from now.

Forbes data indicates that the largest annual increase in billionaire wealth occurred in 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sixty percent of billionaire wealth is now derived from inheritance, monopoly power, corruption or crony connections, as Oxfam argues that “extreme billionaire wealth is largely unmerited.” 

Richest 1 percent in the Global North extracted $30 million an hour from the Global South through the financial system in 2023.

Meanwhile, the number of people living in poverty has barely changed since 1990, according to World Bank data.

The wealth of the world’s ten richest men grew on average by almost $100 million a day —even if they lost 99 percent of their wealth overnight, they would remain billionaires.

This ever-growing concentration of wealth is enabled by a monopolistic concentration of power, with billionaires increasingly exerting influence over industries and public opinion.

Research by Forbes found that every billionaire under 30 has inherited their wealth, while UBS estimates that over 1,000 of today’s billionaires will pass on more than $5.2 trillion to their heirs over the next two to three decades.

Many of the super-rich, particularly in Europe, owe part of their wealth to historical colonialism and the exploitation of poorer countries.

Low and middle-income countries spend on average nearly half of their national budgets on debt repayments, often to rich creditors in New York and London. This far outstrips their combined investment in education and healthcare.

Despite contributing 90 percent of the labor that drives the global economy, workers in low and middle-income countries receive only 21 percent of global income.

Migrant workers in rich countries earn, on average, about 13 percent less than nationals, with the wage gap rising to 21 percent for women migrants.

Oxfam report published on the 20th of January 2025.

Trump’s Tariffs Are Coming for Your Healthcare—Here’s What That Means for You

You might not think much about tariffs—just another political buzzword, right? But what if I told you that Trump’s new trade policies could make your next doctor’s visit way more expensive? Or that the medication you rely on might become harder to find? According to Forbes (source), that’s exactly what’s happening.

What Does This Mean for You?

Higher Medical Bills – If hospitals have to pay more for medical equipment and supplies, guess who’s covering the extra cost? You. That means more expensive doctor visits, surgeries, and even emergency care.

Pricier Medications – Many drugs and essential ingredients come from overseas. Tariffs make them more expensive to import, so your prescriptions could suddenly cost a lot more.

More Drug Shortages – If imports slow down or become too expensive, some medications might just disappear from pharmacies. Imagine trying to get an important prescription filled and being told, “Sorry, we don’t have that in stock.”

A Struggling Healthcare System – Rural hospitals are already barely surviving. Rising costs could shut even more down, leaving entire communities without access to emergency care.

What’s at Stake?

This isn’t just about inconvenience—it’s about real lives. If you have a chronic illness, the price of your life-saving medication could skyrocket. If you get into an accident, your hospital bill could be even more unaffordable. If you live in a small town, you might lose access to healthcare altogether. This is a direct attack on your right to affordable medical care.

The Bigger Picture

These tariffs fit into a broader pattern: policies that make it harder for everyday people to access basic needs. From cutting social safety nets to weakening labor protections, Trump’s economic moves consistently benefit the wealthy while leaving the rest of us scrambling. Healthcare should be a right, not a privilege for those who can afford it. But unless we push back, these policies will keep making it harder for young people, low-income families, and marginalized communities to get the care they need.

What Can You Do?

Talk About It – Most people don’t even realize how tariffs impact their daily lives. Share this information.

Call Out Lawmakers – Demand that politicians stop making your healthcare even more expensive.

Vote Like Your Health Depends On It – Because, honestly? It does.

Trump’s tariffs aren’t just hurting big corporations—they’re hurting you. The question is: Are you going to let it happen?

I know that journalists and newspapers need to make money but the paywalling has gotten ABSURD.

Just a few years ago, most paywalled newspapers let you read a certain number of articles for free every month. So like, you would be granted 5 free articles every month and once you ran out then you’d be paywalled. Nowadays I can’t click on a New York Times or Forbes or Washington Post article without IMMEDIATELY being told I need to pay for a subscription.

I knew it’s been bad for a while but I was so angry the other day because I was trying to give a conservative family member links to reputable articles about how many Americans needlessly suffer and die due to the US healthcare insurance system. And I had to keep digging because SO MANY ARTICLES were paywalled right off the bat.

Do you think Fox News ever paywalls people? Or any other far right news outlet? No wonder people are getting radicalized when the truth is actively being kept behind a paywall.

On Wednesday, the day of the shooting, United Healthcare’s stock opened at $610.79. Exactly one week later, it’s $537.82 – a nearly 13 percent decline. Cigna and CVS Health Corp, some of the nation’s largest private health insurers, experienced a 12 percent and 11 percent decline, respectively. Centene was hit with a 5 percent drop, while Humana had a 3 percent decline.

-The Independent

“The anti-insurer sentiment expressed by the public after this event suggests that UnitedHealth and perhaps the industry may need to adjust how they handle coverage decisions,” Utterback added. “Otherwise, they may face the wrath of the public, which will hopefully come in a more civilized form—such as increased regulation—than what happened this week.”

So JD Vance has fired shots at my country. Big mistake, HUGE!!!

This is going to be a long one, so...

Apart from anything else, the couch fucking, emo eyeliner wearing cockwomble is talking shite! It's one thing for his adult sized toddler boss to go after Canada, Mexico and Greenland but you're telling lies about the Scots here! Like our fellow attacked nations, we are an equal opportunities country, all are welcome here, also we're not afraid of putting a woman in charge! In fact during the reign of our FEMALE First Minister, two out of three of her opposition parties were also led by women who were both married to women. You see we know that people of all genders, races and different backgrounds can do jobs equally because we see them only as human beings and not by who they love or what religion or colour they are. We're not a racist, mysoginistic, transphobic, homophobic nation that want to suppress or destroy our minority groups. We want to celebrate them and provide a place where they can live their lives in peace, and if they need it, protect them! We have free healthcare under the NHS, free prescriptions, free university and college tuition fees, we get sick pay and sick leave, holiday pay, redundancy pay, maternity and paternity leave, expectant mothers receive a baby box for free with all the essentials they should need and if a woman requires an abortion for whatever reason, she can legally do so. But by all means accuse us of arresting people in the privacy of their own homes for praying! Your country Sir, lacks the basics of those aforementioned things and you should be ashamed! Maybe look into that for your own people rather than obsessing over womens' reproductive rights across the world! You picked the wrong country to fuck with pal! Just pray you never have to come here or you'll end up buried alive under one of the holes in the orange one's golf course, preferably one of the many my fellow Scots have shit in! If you're going to come for us, make sure you've got your facts right you lying Yahtzee turd!!! Your eggs are not cheaper, they've quadrupled in price, your economy is tanking but by all means, keep saying "your body, my choice" you evil piece of shit! You really should not throw stones at other nations who live in brick homes while you live in a shattered glass house!

Oh and in Scotland it's still called the Gulf Of FUCKING MEXICO!!!

America I am so sorry you're stuck with these two idiots and the Muskrat who wants to rule the world, live by our motto, HOPE OVER FEAR!!! Because they won't be there forever!

Sorry, rant over. I don't get political on here but this just had to be said, I had to show the rest of the world that he's lying about us and my proof is below if anyone wants to read it. Yes I am proudly anti-Trump, because not only am I on the side of humanity, I am Scottish and we as a nation HATE that big orange blob, if you want to know why Scots hate him so much, click here and here or google Michael Forbes because if a simple Scots farmer can fight him, so can you! Everyone should choose humanity over this shit show of a regime and both of these abhorrent sad excuses for men are not human!

From @MaskTogetherAmerica (bolding mine): "IN-N-OUT’s customer service line confirmed that masks are banned for workers in AZ, CO, TX, NV & UT, unless they have a doctor’s note. Meanwhile, if you work for @innout in CA or OR, it’s up to you but you must wear only company-provided N95s if you choose to #MaskUp! (Different masks may be allowed with a valid medical note.) “N95 masks provide the highest level of protection for C0VID-19 and other viruses and are recommended by OSHA for other respiratory protection.” – the policy stated. @Forbes contributor Dr. Judy Stone shared valuable details in her story: In-N-Out Burger’s New Masking Policy Threatens Their Employees’ Health. Puzzling, isn’t it? 🧐 See CA & OR Mask Policy: https://bit.ly/3Q2LfNJ Call 1-800-786-1000 to let IN-N-OUT know how you feel about their 😷policy. Key points from Dr. Stone’s article: https://bit.ly/3XUR5CB 👉60% of people in the U.S. have underlying conditions that put them at increased risk for severe C19. 👉Forcing employees to disclose reasons for mask exemption likely violates medical privacy. 👉It’s unfair to ask employees to get a doctor’s note which would require seeing a doctor. 👉Requiring proof of a disability might be considered a violation of the ADA. 👉“Fast food workers don’t owe anyone their smiles.” —@jessica.wildfire.writer wrote in her commentary. Fast food workers certainly don’t owe anyone their lives, considering the risk of getting #LongCovid. 👉The CA OSHA regulations state, “No employer shall prevent any employees from wearing a face covering, including a respirator, unless it would create a safety hazard.” 👉The CDC states, “People may choose to mask at any time. Layered prevention strategies — like staying up to date on vaccines and wearing masks — can help prevent severe illness and reduce the potential for strain on the healthcare system. Wear a mask with the best fit, protection, and comfort for you.” 👉HHS tweeted, “The more often you get C19, the higher your risk of complications.” 👉Masking protects you from respiratory viruses as well as pollutants & pollen." PLEASE CALL THE CUSTOMER HOTLINE (1-800-786-1000) AND MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD THAT YOU DO NOT SUPPORT THIS POLICY AND WILL NOT PATRONIZE IN-N-OUT BURGER AS LONG AS THEY DO THIS. You don't need to be rude and keep in mind the customer service rep isn't the one responsible for putting this policy in place. ANTI-MASKERS, VIRUS-DENIERS, AND OTHER PLAGUE-RATS DO NOT INTERACT WITH THIS POST.

for the israeli healthcare thing: i think the point is that it's weird for us taxes to go to a foreign countries' healthcare + that it's evidence of how involved the us govt is w israels govt?

US taxes go to providing aid all around the world. I do not consider that "weird".

We fund "choir directors in Turkmenistan, filmmakers in Peru, aid for poultry farmers Tanzania, and sex education workshops for prostitutes in Ethiopia" and "$10.1 million for remedial reading programs in Zambia and Moldovia", according to this Forbes article.

If you'd like to deep dive into it, you can go to ForeignAssistance.Gov.

Currently, Ukraine is topping the list as the country we've given the most foreign aid money to in recent years, in support of their fight against Russia.

Israel also receives a lot of aid. They're our ally, and for a lot of political, military, and economic reasons (which I don't necessarily agree with, but which nonetheless exist), the USA is invested in Israel and the region at large. Like, from a purely strategic standpoint, if you know literally anything about global politics, you'll get why the US gives so much aid to Israel. You don't have to agree with it, but it's not "weird" - it's perfectly logical from a foreign affairs point of view.

So apparently the «Nordic Diet» is being promoted now as a new, healthy diet that is supposedly soooo healthy, like lowering Diabetes and heart disease.

I was curious, so I went to check it out, and was lead to a Forbes article which y’all can read here; https://www.forbes.com/health/nutrition/diet/nordic-diet-review/

… the fuck. While some of the things written here is technically true, like limiting processed meats is encouraged, and sweets are discoraged, also we do eat a lot of seafood…

Plant. Based????

The fuck it isn’t! In what world is nordic food plant based? A lot of Norway in particular have very poor soil, meaning that there aren’t a lot of vegetables that grow here, and people had to rely on milk products, potatoes, cheese and meat to get through the winter months.

Legumes? Other than our pea soups, legumes are hardly part of our traditional diets!

Not to mention how in Norway we are big fans of food in tubes, which is a convenient way to take food with you on hikes without making your bread soggy and gross. Things like Caviar, mackerel in tomato sauce, bacon cheese and shrimp cheese to name a few…

Also it is funny how the article talks about low fat dairy, as there is currently a push to use full fat dairy now, because of anxieties around ultra-processed food.

What really gets me though is how it refuses to acknowledge that our healthcare and wealth is one of the deciding factors of the good health in the Nordics. And pretty significant reason why we live so long.

accidentally engaged with aphobic redditor lol im saving my comment here in case it gets removed by mods lolololololololol

Here are some links you can read with data to back up the claims about feeling excluded, harassment and corrective rape, and even conversion therapy: 2020, the Trevor Project - Asexual and Ace Spectrum Youth Also from this, "A larger proportion of asexual youth were transgender or nonbinary compared to the overall sample of LGBTQ youth." So asexuals are also probably experiencing transphobic discrimination as well. Il Grande Colibri - Aphobia: PRejudices and Discrimination again st asexuality Asexuality Handbook - Anti-asexual bias Stonewall - New research: shining a light on 'dehumanising' discrimination faced by ace people This one focuses more on aphobia in the UK. Forbes - Only 1 in 10 asexual people feel comfortable to be out at work Asexual Survivors - On Sexual Abuse, Repulsion, and Aversion in the Asexual Community This entire website is stories and resources by and for people on the asexual spectrum who have faced sexual harassment and/or corrective rape. Sadly, it seems to have not been updated in some time. [Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assult (MCASA) - Sexual Violence against the Asexual Community, 2022)[https://mcasa.org/newsletters/article/sexual-violence-against-the-asexual-community] John Hopkins University Press Jan/Feb 2023 - Coercive Rape Tactics Perpetrated against Asexual College Students WomensLaw - What forms of abuse are unique to asexual victims? Buzzfeed News (this is from 2018 before Buzzfeed News got weird…) - When you're an asexual assault survivor, it's even harder to be heard Sociologist and Gender/Sexuality Researcher Canton Winer on Substack Much of his recent research is being done on the Asexual and Aromantic communities and he has interesting articles and twitter threads where ace/aro people share their stories of experiencing discrimination. He has a short article about asexuals facing conversion therapy. Slate Op-Ed - It's time to start treating asexual and aromantic people like the adults we are The Maroon Op-Ed (part of Loyola University) - Column: "A" stands for asexuals and not allies Everyday Feminism - Why we need mental healthcare without asexual erasure - and how to get there NLM - Asexual and Non-Asexual Respondents from a US population based study of Sexual Minorities Asexuals.net - Aphobia: understanding the discrimination, and prejudice against aspec individuals Advocate - #21AceStories: including the A in LGBTQIA Carolina Sexual Wellness Center Op-Ed - I am an ally, and it's not about me The Panoptic Op-Ed - A is not for Ally: Spare a thought for invisible identities this pride month The Cataount Op-Ed - A is not for Ally Human Rights Campaign - Understanding the Asexual Community I did also see a comment in this reddit thread asking if the A stands for Ally, that in 70's the A used to stand for ally. However, in the 90's and early 2000's, as more and more asexual and aromantic awareness increased, there was a push for the A to stand for asexual/aromantic and also sometimes agender (although agender also falls under the transgender umbrella). So, it used to be ally, but that is an outdated definition. And again, while cis-het people are appreciated for being allies, they do not and will likely never face the same discrimination and prejudice that people with LGBT+ identities do. They shouldn't be included for doing the bare minimum of human decency. It's like a weird participation trophy that also dilutes the meaning of being LGBT+. People who are questioning or still in the closet are welcome to use the Q as "questioning/queer" or be allies, but it still does not mean that the A is for allies.

[riflebrass]

I've harped about this recently but I wanted to approach this from a different angle. Here's a collection of the top 25 wealthiest Americans. This info is from Forbes but the info is a little outdated. Forbes' website has a more accurate account for the top 100 wealthiest Americans but I'm not interested in scrolling through all that and taking screencaps just to prove a point.

So there's the list. When you combine their entire net worth you are looking at a little under $2 trillion and once you are out of the top 9 there's a sharp drop in how much money they have.

Here we have last year's budget for the fedal government. They received almost $5 TRILLION in tax revenue, more than DOUBLE what the top 25 men are worth combined. Elon alone has enough money to last him a couple thousand lifetimes. If someone wanted to bust out a calculator and spend the better part of an hour cruncing the numbers on Forbes website I'm sure you will find that $4.8 trillion in revenue is more than the combined wealth of the top 100.

All that tax revenue wasn't even enough to run this country for one whole year. We ran at a $1.3 trillion defecit. The combined wealth of the top 12 wealthiest Americans would have only made the budget break even on top of the taxes already collected. That's without universal healthcare, free college, free childcare, or an extra bag of fudge rounds for the folks on welfare lol.

Pronouns Update: she/her

PTN: I hope I made her personality clear, I feel like I’m writing part of rough draft of a Forbes Top 100 article

I made an au where my girl is trans femme, coming back from studying abroad a different person.

She convinces her wealthy conservative Japanese family to accept her as a woman and the future president of the family company with a resounding speech and borderline overqualified resume.

She turns her family’s monopolistic mega corporation — responsible for 75% of the worldwide economic and environmental pollution — into a global multi million dollar eco friendly investment and charity development.

Working for various causes such as environmental protection, affordable quality mental health and medical, lgbtqia+ support, and ethically produced affordable goods and services.

She checks everything meticulously to make sure employees even on the lowest level of the corporate latter are provided with quality healthcare and insurance.

All companies under Yaoyorozu Inc be fully unionized and go above and beyond in respecting all employees and maintain a healthy level of professionalism.

The corporate conscious lives in her, she’s actively trying to spread her wealth and hold herself to the highest moral standards.

Every single thing she owns no matter how minuscule is ethnically source and produced. Including her clothes — which are handmade using recycled materials — and food, which is ethically sourced and produced by local farms — no chemicals, animal abuse, factories etc

She is fully aware of her privilege, making it her personal duty to pay back her and her family’s karmic debt. Very much a martyr complex but extremely efficient. Her friends frequently refer to her as a “literal saint” and “dying for the sins of her fellow 1%”

Sorry for the delay in response, I think ethical ceo is a great direction to take with her!

We’ve seen actual real world examples of it that have worked out great for the companies, Costco is a great example of this actually. The founder believed in fair prices and fair treatment for all employees. Apparently when he retired and a new ceo stepped up, he threatened to kill him if the price of hot dogs in their food court went up because shareholders wanted new guy to bring them up so new guy asked him what he thought.

I think while her shareholders would probably have a problem with it, they can’t afford to challenge her because she already has a reputation for being a “one of the good ones” ceo
