...So is patreon's newest spat with apple going to mean the proper end of the rate lock I got grandfathered into? Because that seems annoying as fuck.
#the magician cries#hello hi i despise apple's fucking 30% profit policy and i hate that they are big enough that companies whose sites should arguably#be fucking desktop based and not so reliant on the app#(hi i might be in the minority of Uses Patreon Almost Exclusively On Desktop except for the One Podcaster I follow)#anyways I made sure to set that fucker up back before the rate increase because they promised not to change it#and guess what you cannot move over to if you want to keep that rate lock? SUB BILLING!#guess what they are forcing a transition to? SUB BILLING#don't quote me i need to like. find someone who has actually done the digging and explained how this will work#but pre-emptively i am annoyed about that shit#oh boohoo if enough people don't switch over they will take us out of the app store#MAYBE#MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE TRYING TO ARGUE THAT APPLE TAKING 30% OF YOUR PROFITS MEANING YOU CHARGE PATRONS EXTRA FOR PHONE SUBS#IS UNETHICAL AND SHADY AS FUCK

god im not starting shit on the post but "medical and pharmaceutical companies thank you for your long term patronage" really does not work as a thing to shame anti maskers. this is not a system i get to opt out of even by masking. unfortunately, i really dont think masking is pwning the predatorily priced healthcare system in the usa. especially considering how many of the ppl who are still doing it are unfortunately beholden to it anyway for some other fucking reason. fuck, even if i didnt have medications i take everyday anyway, the company i buy n95s from is a fucking medical /surgical supply company? its such a weird. just. no.
#toy txt post#vague#the quality of your memes is all over the map#pwning the healthcare system by refusing to get treated bc its expensive and the mask is only one layer of protection#i know its 'not that deep' its 'just a meme' but i Do Not Like the implications of that particular meme. eugh#if the government stepped up and made all that healthcare for covid complications free and ended for profit healthcare#we should still mask#i just#the idea that you can opt out of 'long term patronage' of medical and pharmaceutical companies as a choice is so fucking flawed#thats kind of the entire problem with the for profit system isnt it. cos you cant fucking opt out of it. you can take measures to avoid#getting sick but it wont always work and we need to have a collective approach to public health. not this weird individualistic shit.#even if you are masking. if youre not getting sick you are getting lucky to some degree. the mask is INCREASING YOUR PROTECTION#but it is not surefire and none of us should be acting this fucking. SMARMY about it. jesus.#idk i think its like this weird. youre not better than other ppl for Not Getting Sick? getting covid is not a divine punishment for the sin#of not masking. just blegh#reblogs off to hopefully avoid Starting Shit#but like even if you dont mask. i wish you would but i hope you get lucky. i hope you get lucky and dont get sick for your sake and all#those around you. genuinely. but i wish youd mask. if we all masked and vaccinated we could end this shit so much sooner. if we get#legislation and infrastructure improvements and funding we could end this sooner. imagine if we got infrastructure improvements that made#flu season disappear as a concept. imagine if we cut down on respiratory illness spread the way we did with fucking cholera after we#improved access to water sanitation#WE COULD HAVE A BETTER WORLD. STOP BEING PETTY ABOUT SHIT

It's amazing how quickly you can make someone turn on your company by making a stupid and insulting move
Force me to go through the front door and scan my card when I have backdoor business that never needed a card before (what? ...I was going to somehow... sneak in and... purchase things with a borrowed card? ...which I totally can't do from the front door after scanning it?)
Or like... twitterify your layout right after your users give you a bunch of money just cause they like you, and then refuse to walk it back
...or all the other things companies do that just kinda piss people off and then they refuse to acknowledge maybe it sucks and is stupid cause "hey, the customers didn't leave"... yeah... yet
#legit; as small as it is it gives me a hint at the direction things will head and that costco will get more and more anti consumer#and I'm in minutes going from an 'I love costco; it's how I afford to eat; go get a cheap pizza'#to 'you know costco is kinda frustrating and annoying and I don't trust their ceo... I'm not sure if it's worth your time and money'#like look back and; tumblr search willing; you'll find posts of me singing costco's praises; literal free advertising#cause while it's not right for everyone; man is it so much cheaper than places like walmart#but... I legit don't know if I can recommend it anymore#for one thing; when I signed up I just spotted the members desk; walked in the backdoor up to the desk; and gave them money#now... what? you gotta ask permission? I feel like there's a chilling effect on wanting to join... at least for my socially anxious ass#and again; I just whiff this as like when games companies add DRM that breaks the game... for people who actually pay for it#they're making me suffer a pain in the ass for no reason cause someone might not be giving them money#and now that person never will give them money... and frankly... if they don't pay the membership but spend $500 how much did you lose?#but like I said; I feel it in the air; that costco will start doing more and more anti consumer stuff#...do I think it's a good idea to join up when they're gonna slowly start turning this corner?#I mentioned that quote by the founder about killing them if they raise the price of the hotdog#but... the fact the founder felt the need to say that to begin with told me something#kinda gotten the impression that the ceo is greedy as hell and wants to drain the consumer (so... a normal ceo)#and this just smacks of netflix/disney#oh... did you hear about disney killing someone with a food allergy despite being told about it multiple times like when the dish arrived?#and now disney is trying to forced arbitrate cause they had a disney+ trial in 2019#you hear about that one? cause that's a real news story; I'll find you an article if you don't believe it#anyway; this smacks of cracking down on password sharing to make up for hypothetical lost revenue#and let me tell you... if I could switch to pirating my groceries I would; I would download eggs#so this doesn't change costco fundamentally; but it does make it feel more hostile and like it doesn't trust me#it makes things feel more adversarial instead of like a partnership where they get me good prices on good things and I give money#and I just wouldn't be surprised if they start doing more things I don't like#things that make things worse... things like raising prices to increase their profit#...makes me want to... work on figuring out how to make everything myself since no company is trustworthy#they'll all turn on you in the end; the moment the wrong person takes charge they'll start to metastasis#towards the cancer of infinite profits#not saying don't go to costco... I'm saying don't get attached if you do; I think they're ready to do what every company does these days

re: this post, discord isn't a social media, but fuckers keep treating it like one by migrating all of their communities and posts to discord in the wake of each social media fuckup, so it kind of is one by usage at this point?
Like. Nine times out of ten, if you're looking for information on something, whatever you're looking for is locked in some fucking discord server.
If you want help with a game or a mod? "Oh, come join the discord!" You want some support or have questions about a medical condition? "Hey there's a discord for that!" You want to talk to somebody about a hobby? "There's a great discord community!"
All of these things used to be on forums that were accessible without siloing yourself into an instant messaging box full of people all talking at once, to search for the one nugget of information you actually need in the moment. It would be like if you wanted to get eggs at the grocery store, but to get that one thing, you had to naturalize as a citizen of a foreign country first.
And don't get me wrong; I have a discord account, and I use it to talk with friends. But I would rather eat my own shoes than join a "community" just to get some answers to a question that used to be posted visibly on reddit, tumblr, or fuck forbid, a topic-specific forum.
(To top it off, this doesn't even touch on my thoughts that discord, being a social tech company in 2023, is going to implode like all the other social tech companies because of increased monetization pressure. It's just a matter of time before they make dumb decisions like reddit, or get bought out like skype.)
#phoenix sounds#long post#This is all to say: I agree with OP semantically but disagree based on how people seem to use it#Forums got shafted by social media and increasing hosting costs#Now social media is being fucked over by its own incentives and the venture capitalists calling for profits#And an instant messaging platform for gamers is not meant to replace any of that#But people keep. Fucking moving their communities off of accessible internet and onto discord#Which bites people in the ass right now#And will bite those communities in the ass in the future#To finish off too: if you think tumblr moderation is bad. At least tumblr mods are employees#Discord mods often aren't. So just keep that thought in your back pocket when you join some large server#Because the harassment and bad actors of social media exist elsewhere too#And it's one thing to wade through that when you're being paid. But another if you're not paid/you're not trained/you're just some rando

hey everyone :') I'm having trouble with my paypal account right now and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem: currently, I can't log into my account because it wants to send a security code to an out of date phone number. and. the whole reason I wanted to log in was....to update my number.......because I no longer have access to the old one......
the customer service line is automated and I can't get a real person, and the chat function requires you to login (which I can't do!!!!), and I'm just. uhhhh. trying to find out if there's a solution to this before I like…..send a DM to their support twitter......because you can't send support emails anymore........
#im like. very upset abt all of this lmao#it truly seems like the only thing to do is to DM their support twitter#and ngl this is like. augh. i high key want to cry. there's no reason for it to be like this?? if you're going to keep increasing your fees#can't you just. use your profits to hire people to answer customer support........

is anyone else in a field that feels like climbing up a falling ladder?
went to school for MIS (computer science but less programming more business) graduated 14. First job 15-18, another 19-20, and then 21-23. every time I job hunt I see positions that I had seen before but the amount they offer seems so much lower than they had offered? sysadmin seems like a position I could have sword was averaging 120k/year in 18, and now I'm seeing a listing for not even 60k.
I know every job is working their employees to the bone for as little as they can get away with while the world burns down but god you do everything right- go to school, go local to keep loans low, get a degree in something that can pay you instead of something you like- and you still get screwed
we need universal healthcare, ubi, and a fix to the housing crisis, as well as making all jobs 30hours 1.5x for any hours post that, and capping maximum pay (15x the lowest paid employee's salary is extremely generous. 30k for employees? You still get almost half a mil a year you greedy fucks)
#give everyone a snap card for at least 100/person/week#minimal taxes on first personal property#30% taxes on a secondary#increase % by at least 5 for each extra property#force all modern 'tech disruptors' to be painfully transparent about their profits#so they end up shut down because none of them are profitable and they have only fucked shit up for your avergae person#public transport for most of the country is. complicated#but bullet trains cheap between all major and minor cities is not#also just make public transport free#'oh but how would we pay' the military budget. calculate how much you owe the people you got to sign up per your bs little promises#and then keep maybe 20% and put the rest towards your fucking citizens#'what about immigrants' what about them they're citizens too open the damn borders#take in refugees help them you weird hateful fuckers#this country sucks but if it's better for others let them in#obviously make abortions safe and legal#decriminalize sex work and drugs#take the money you keep throwing at the cops and put it into your communities#blah blah blah#all this shit is so fucking easy it just requries the people in power to not be in the pockets of shitbags#and that won't stop until we limit campaign spending and provide housing for politicians#since their pay is Fine enough but for dc? ehhh#they need to be taken care of enough by their jobs to not be suceptiable to the wine and dine bs

It's so funny when conservatives are like "if we raise minimum wage it'll hurt small businesses" like babygirl every policy you've ever enacted has made it damn near impossible to run a small business
#if you actually wanted to help small businesses then you would support universal healthcare so that small businesses dont have to either#shoulder the cost of providing insurance or not offer insurance at all and therefore have a very high employee turn over rate#if you cared about small businesses you would have a vested interest in reducing rent so that the business could increase their profit#margin and the employees could afford to live and work in the area#etc#i feel like in america at least its almost impossible to start a business and be successful without doing coke or going insane and#exploiting your employees

crazy idea but I think if people just stopped paying for shit that isn't right maybe things would change
#like Netflix wants every person or your family to give them money to watch stuff ? stop paying#concert tickets are becoming absurdly expensive? stop buying them#some clothes or skincare is super pricey? dont buy it#most of the stuff we buy is not essential and the prices are so high NOT bc of the actual costs but bc people want to make very high profit#so if everyone just stopped buying this shit i guarantee u that prices would go down again#but as long as you buy... the prices will always increase#in a world where we are reduced to being only consumers our only voice is our money#nothing else will.make these people change their minds#and sometimes its not only not buying shit sometimes not paying can be a disruptive movement too!#i learned the other day that in sweden the movement to make public transport free protested by having everyone jump the things#and not pay the tickets

Everything that goes wrong in the Jurassic Park movie franchise is a result of capitalism.
Instead of reviving dinosaurs one by one so they could be studied in isolation by biologists, revolutionizing our understanding of prehistoric life, they revived as many as they could and immediately tried to make a zoo out of creatures they didn't fully understand.
They cut corners to open the park as early as possible and make as much profit as possible. An IT staff of two people for a heavily automated park, are you kidding?
The park was sabotaged by rivals who wanted to steal dinosaur embryos and get in on the money, something that would have been pointless if the technology hadn't been horded so someone else could make all the money.
They kept going back to the park in the other movies because people kept trying to mess with the dinosaurs for money.
Jurassic World imploded because running an AMUSEMENT PARK WITH DINOSAURS somehow wasn't profitable enough. The line had to keep going up, so they had to make a super dinosaur and try to sell raptors to the military.
Jurassic Park would have been just fine as a non-profit that focused on study and care instead of making money. Yes, yes, chaos theory, life finds a way, blah blah, but in reality we contain large, dangerous animals all the time. Every major city has a zoo, and even the idiots who keep tigers as personal pets don't normally get shredded by them. Dinosaurs aren't magic, there's nothing about them that makes them fundamentally impossible to control.
The movies make it very clear that dinosaurs themselves are wonderful, majestic creatures. No one suggests they shouldn't be around (other than the famous quote about "could" vs "should") or that the islands where they live should be napalmed to kill off these dangerous monsters. The problem isn't the dinosaurs, it's the need to somehow make them profitable.
Jurassic Park isn't a torment nexus, it's just a nexus. People just keep trying to make money off it, which turns it into a torment nexus...like every other wonderful thing people try to twist into a tool for profit.
jurassic park has a good philosophical message but unfortunately the only thing i ever take away from watching jurassic park is "god i wish i could go to jurassic park." like yeah it's a blatantly obvious don't create the torment nexus scenario, but this torment nexus has DINOSAURS.
#jurassic park#dinosaurs#capitalism#name one thing that is improved by trying to make it profitable#would you enjoy your sunset more if it came with Sunset Premium?#would your hike be enriched if they put billboards every half mile?#Im aware that maintenance costs are a thing#I'm fine with my parking or entrance fee going to keep the lights on and pay the staff a living wage#But when it changes from maintaining and increasing the availability of a precious resource#to getting rich off that precious resource#things are going downhill fast

Growth capitalism is a deranged fantasy for lunatics.
Year 1, your business makes a million dollars in profit. Great start!
Year 2, you make another million. Oh no! Your business is failing because you didn't make more than last year!
Okay, say year 2 you make $2 mil. Now you're profitable!
Then year 3 you make $3 mil. Oh no! Your business is failing! But wait, you made more money than last year right? Sure, but you didn't make ENOUGH more than last year so actually your business is actively tanking! Time to sell off shares and dismantle it for parts! You should have made $4 mil in profit to be profitable, you fool!
If you're not making more money every year by an ever-increasing exponent, the business is failing!
Absolute degenerate LUNACY
#eat the rich#fuck capitalism#capitalists make great mulch#they're a sustainable and eco-friendly source of pig feed and fertilizer#blog together queue alone

Even in food service, there is the demand for exponential growth. Each store has a profit target you're expected to hit every quarter. Each quarter the target gets bigger and bigger. The only way to make sure you hit or exceed that target is to increase sales or cut costs. Sales can only go so far though, so at a certain point there is the understandable temptation (not justifiable, but understandable) for your manager to start cutting hours. Once they do, your location has entered a Death Spiral.
The thing about the Death Spiral is it is nearly impossible to escape. It starts innocuous enough, with a few hours getting shaved off every week. And true enough at first you probably didn't need those hours. They were the slack, the extra hands that helped distribute the work and made it easier on everyone. You might not even notice they're gone. Maybe the morning rush is a little harder to handle, maybe there isn't as much time to chat as there used to be. But on the whole nothing has changed. You're still hitting your sales quota and, hey, everyone seems to be working a little harder. That's good, right?
Then the next quarter rolls around. You exceeded your quota. Upper management is very excited. But now your new quota is even higher than it would have been if you had simply performed to expectations. You raise prices a bit, push more expensive drinks, and sure, cut a few more hours. Bit by bit the slack gets tighter. The fat gets trimmed. All because continual growth, continual improvement, is not just demanded, but expected.
The endgame of the Death Spiral is the expectation that every worker will operate at 100% efficacy 100% of of the time, and that nothing will go wrong ever. It never reaches this point, as any food service worker will tell you, shit goes wrong. Service gets worse, you lose a few customers, and you miss your quota. This is the point of no return, because the only way to solve the problem is to add more hours. But there's no way upper management will approve spending more money. On a failing store? Don't be ridiculous. Maybe get those numbers up and we'll consider adding hours back. But the only way to get those numbers up is with no hours. It's a Catch-22. You're trapped. Slowly, inevitably, the store fails, and then closes.
The Death Spiral is a doomed strategy, but it is the one corporations push in response to investor pressure. It tricks workers into more work for the promise of relief later, if they do well and succeed, not realizing they'll only be asked to do even more next time. So how do you fight it? Know your worth. Don't let anyone give you more work without some kind of kickback. Don't fool yourself into thinking that being indispensable will lead to a reward later.
But the best defense? Join a union.

You can thank the billionaires for trapping you with paycheck to paycheck wage slavery so you can never live a comfortable life for years that need personal hotels like this that cost over a million a year just for the utilities that could pay you an extra $2-3 dollars an hour to make your lives more bearable but they never will cause who gives a shit about the working class in Beverly Hills?
No 🙃ne.
going to the grocery store is like ohh ok guess everything is 500 thousand million dollars now and i should just die
#yall startin to regret givin Bezos so much of your money yet?#infected you with COVID then paid to bail out some of you they needed for the economy with your own tax dollars#made millions off big pharma vaccines toilet paper stocks and shipping companies#THEN inflated everything so bad to take back all your DUA checks at ‘record breaking profits’ because people got used to living comfortably#and bankrupted everyone they bailed out with increased food gas and rent that isn’t ratio to their payrate#this is what happens when you put a game show host in charge of a job they don’t know how to do#all they know is how to take your money and add it to their pile while you die#that’s all capitalism is
