    A possible option working within existing systems would be:

    Parental leave: you get pop sustain rate (2.1?) parental leaves banked. You use 1 leave for every child you have and bank is allowed negative with no penalty. At 45 or so you get to use your bank without being a parent.

    Something like 95% of people become parents.

    Flex time/time-bank + home/hybrid office fix most other issues in office jobs.








  • Like some of these could be quite impactful but there’s no reasoning given for why any are moreso than no kings.

    Trying to create a viable third party for an electoral system is incongruent with the assumption that martial law is inevitable.

    Compulsory “I’m not advocating violence” … You’re saying “do a Luigi”

    Maybe say something about how mutual aid fills the gaps missed by the system and how if it grows then we can build systems with greater nuance and independence from the state thereby better protecting our communities against disasters and brutality from law enforcement.

    “Read a book” types are the fucking worst.

    I think the spotify shuffle+ algorithm weighs songs more when you’ve liked them more recently.

    I’m also fairly confident the artist’s contract impacts the weight as well, especially for suggested songs not in your playlist.

    Songs from the backlog get played, but at a much lower frequency. Random should have a relatively flat distribution, not a skewed bell curve.
