The "big bad" of the anime series Vision of Escaflowne, Emperor Dornkirk is the power-mad ruler of the industrial dystopia known as Zaibach. He aims to control and alter the destiny of his plant and other worlds. Personally, he reminds me of a levelled-up Elon Musk who seeks to enslave everyone in his giant Amazon warehouse. 

This is my original Picmix character portrait using animation stills from the anime and graphics from Picmix’s website.

Christmas 2022 Special: December 25th: We Die Free Men

After centuries of being Santa’s slaves, his elves revolt. Their slave master can turn his forearms to or from arm cannons that can also be used as slashing or stabbing weapons. His whole body has an exoskeleton that looks and acts like powered armor.

Santa is evil in this and his workshop might as well be an Amazon warehouse (or Omozan warehouse as it would be called in-universe).

Since workers’ unions are to be killed on sight, this naturally means that some elves attempt a violent revolt.

Yes, Koglaxon is Santa.

hey bam! I’m sorry if this has already been asked, but would you ever ship the Monty pins outside of the US?

Probably not, since the cost of shipping through international customs costs more than what the pin order cost itself. I could see it if was apart of a larger order, but customs and cost of shipping is too expensive alone.

For example: the shipping cost for a single bubble mailer from USA to UK would cost between $22-$28 USD, NOT including the cost of the pin itself.

All the pressure we put on kids in school gets even more ridiculous after you've worked a few boring office jobs. I've had managers take over a week to skim through a short document, only to then schedule a meeting and ask me to explain what's in the document. Nobody died, nobody lost their job, it was fine.

Ask the average office worker to do work equivalent to the amount of homework and studying a 14 year old has to do in a week, in addition to going to school full-time, and they'll go "oof, that's gonna need a 3 month deadline boss" and still end up asking for a due date extension.

Some school teachers and even uni professors made me feel like the "real working world" is always this high pressure environment where you either swim or drown, but for the average person it's realistically gonna be more like a waist-deep swimming pool that you swim around in at a leisurely pace until your skin gets all wrinkly.

just saw someone say 'we're living in the golden age of dying for your boss' on a post about california shortening the covid isolation period to 1 day to minimize disruptions to work/school and i totally understand the sentiment. but also. an insanely objectively not true statement if you're looking at A Lot Of Pretty Significant Industries

reading a tolstoy and a steinbeck back to back is actually giving me so much whiplash bc i went from anna karenina where tolstoy gives the point of view of the upper class landowner being ohh so saddd bc hes so upset he exploits his workers feel bad for himmm and puts his own hypocrisy and fetishization of the working class on display vs grapes of wrath showing the true depths of the strength of the working class and the real tragedy of the dehumanization of workers and complete disregard for human life by the wealthy... lets just say i feel even more ire towards anna karenina today AKNSMDMDKDK

Excerpt from this story from The Revelator:

In recent decades the Inland Empire — comprised of San Bernardino and Riverside counties — has been the primary victim of America’s warehouse boom. As demand for online shopping has surged — e-commerce sales grew 50% to $870 billion during the pandemic alone — this region has served as a billionaire’s dumping ground. Those are the words of Tom Dolan, executive director of Inland Congregations United for Change. “Now it’s no longer just Warren Buffet, it’s Jeff Bezos and Amazon,” Dolan told The Guardian in 2021. “And we’re paying the cost of doing their business.”

That business is only made possible by taking out a nonconsensual loan from the residents of surrounding communities. It’s a coercive trade: the health and safety of citizens for the profits they’ll never share. And no worthwhile efforts have been made to pay off that debt.

In order to fulfill the glamorous promises of expedited, overnight and same-day deliveries, diesel trucks conduct over 600,000 daily trips through the Inland Empire alone, carrying roughly 40% of the nation’s goods. These vehicles emit 1,000 pounds of diesel particulate matter every day (alongside 100,000 pounds of nitric oxide and 50,000,000 pounds of carbon dioxide).

The International Agency for Research on Cancer has classified diesel particulate matter as a Group 1 carcinogen — the most severe category — due to sufficient evidence linking diesel exposure to lung cancer. (Other studies have suggested a relationship to cancers of the bladder, larynx, esophagus, stomach, pancreas and blood, alongside asthma, other respiratory disease, heart attacks and premature mortality.) The region bordering the warehouse hub in one Inland Empire city, Ontario, ranks in the 95th percentile of cancer. A 2015 study estimated that 70% of the total cancer risk from air pollution in California is caused by diesel exhaust alone.

The people who suffer the consequences of our online shopping are not typically over-consumers themselves. The South Coast Air Quality Management District found that the 2.4 million people living within half a mile of a warehouse are also disproportionately Black and Latino communities below the poverty line. In 2012 San Bernardino ranked as the second poorest city in America with over 34.6% of people living in poverty. And of all the residents living within a mile of the average Amazon warehouse, 80% are people of color.
