While I agree with getting rid of at-will policies, I disagree with one part of your idea. Why would I ever want to indenture myself to 5 years with the same employer? How would unions be handled? How about strikes? What about health insurance benefits?
Frankly, unions already solve alot of the problems with at-will employment, and should be protected by law rather then systemically stripped away.
Check out ‘Monster Eater’, that’s the premise of the MC’s story.
The saddest part of this was to see that this person is of the age to have been in my school classes, albeit in another country. Madness can strike at any age, it seems.
Depends on the car and the parking lot, for me. When I drive my mom someplace we use her van, it’s easier for her to get in and out that way. This van has a shorter front end, and no backup camera to compensate, so I back in and pull out of spaces so I have better views as I’m moving.
When I drive my sedan with my wife and kids, I pull in to spaces and back out, because the sedan has a much longer front end and a great backup camera/radar alert system that makes backing out of spaces the safer option.
Of course he is, and just like Palpatine, he will attempt to create laws and organizations that benefit himself. Especially if he feels he can twist the existing ones to suit this purpose.
I’m not deluded or ignorant, I’m well aware such a thing wouldn’t stop the dictatorial asshat. I’m only pointing out that from a legal perspective, this wouldn’t be an “official and legal” order. Such a thing can already be said of many of the Executive Orders that have been proclaimed and signed. It’s a technicality, I know, but I’m just trying to point out another instance of the law being twisted and ignored rather then upheld.
Official = legal in this context, so if he where to try and declare war without Congress approving, it would not be an official act.
Yeah, if I recall the change was because so many people took them to arbitration at the same time that the cost wasn’t worth it, so they changed the policy to ‘local court’ to avoid the situation repeating while also sidestepping any large class action attempts.
I already communicate without speech, I’m doing it right now to someone I’ve never met and don’t know the identity of, who is receiving only the thoughts I wish to share. Why would I go beyond that?
Besides, I can also share thoughts with those I do know without speech. I text my wife when I don’t want the kids to hear our joke, I can even include pictures to get the message across if I don’t have the words.
Gooooood Morning Night City!
For that price I can get 3-4 Ender-3s and the same number of Raspberry Pi and make my own smart printers .
Be a librarian. I always felt like being a custodian to knowledge was a noble pursuit, and I respect librarians alot for it. I never went into the field myself because I couldn’t afford the schooling just to get a job that in my area, doesn’t pay very well. If pay wasn’t a problem? Hoo boy!

Protesting is not treason. Treason is the reason for the protests.
The way I see it, if ICE is trying to come into my home without a warrant, then they already intend for me to die. I’m a white natural born US citizen, but I’ve made my stance on kings in this country pretty clear, so a visit from the SS is a factor I have to be ready for. I’d rather die at home, taking a many of them with me as I can, then quietly allowing them to send me to a death camp, if I had to choose.
We don’t want to live here right now, but we don’t have the finances to leave. So instead, we’re going to protect our home, and continue to support and participate in the actions against tyranny that we can. Protests, pressure on other elected officials to resist as well, etc.
Edit: Besides, if evil comes to your country and knocks at your door, shouldn’t you fight it?
Enter my home without a warrant or identifying yourself, and your gonna leave in a casket.
I’ve also explained to my family that we do not open the door to anyone, especially people who claim to be cops. Way too easy to claim it, then force their way in while your waiting for them to prove who they are.
I love it! Predict that a large empire of equals will fall after 250 years.
Market myself as a powerful man of religion and/or magician, depending on the local vibe. Then use knowledge of science and tech to build myself a reclusive retreat where I can have regular baths and write books with predictions to mess with the world 650 years after I would die.
Friend, your guild idea already exists. It’s just called a Union in the current day. Many trades already operate this way, from the Carpenters Union to the Iron Workers Union. There’s even a Teamsters Union. The different name doesn’t change the work they do. White- collar hand much less representation with collective solidarity, but that can be fixed by starting a Union at your local work place. I won’t tell anyone it’s easy, but it’s worth putting in the work. A great example is the Starbucks unions that have popped up in the last few years. The reason you don’t see more unions is because employers are terrified of them, and want to continue to freely exploit the workforce through fear.
