That’s true, I agree with this sentiment. But I’m a bit confused when trying to apply the same logic to credit bureaus and other companies which get hacked and expose our personal information without facing any real consequences. In those situations I feel that those companies should be held liable for the breaches.
Bingo. A properly funded and functional public education system, that teaches real critical thinking and let’s include media literacy while we’re at it.
Wow good find using the pdf metadata!
Thanks for sharing! I wish they had the date of publishing listed for this article. I get the feeling it was written 15 years ago, well before streaming music services existed. Would love to see them update this based on the latest technologies and services.
Probably not quite what your looking for, but I literally just came across this article about a potential general strike in 4 years:
“UAW president Shawn Fain on May Day calls on unions to prepare for strike in 2028”
“We are fully preparing to strike on May Day 2028,” Shawn Fain wrote in a proposal on May Day, or International Workers Day.
Fain said it is the only way workers can “win universal healthcare and the right to retire with dignity.”
[In an op-ed (https://inthesetimes.com/article/may-day-2028-general-strike-working-class) for progressive publication In These Times, Fain said the union’s recent auto contracts were all aligned to expire on April 30, 2028. He called on other unions to do the same as way to mass power to “reshape the economy into one that works for the benefit of everyone.”
“They want us to believe that corporate bosses gave workers decent wages, benefits and safer working conditions out of the goodness of their hearts. That justice and equality for people of color, for immigrants, for women and for queer communities were gifts benevolently handed down from above,” Fain wrote.
“But we know the truth. Every law passed, every union formed and contract won—every improvement made at the workplace—has been won through the tireless sacrifice of the working class.”
Yes, I just finished watching Pantheon and absolutely loved it!
Totally agree that it deserved more attention. At least it got a proper ending with season 2.
Also, the voice acting talent they got was impressive. Paul Dano was fantastic as one of the leads.
Was looking for the Pantheon reference in this thread! Just finished that show and loved it. Of course it takes plenty of liberties for the sake of the storytelling, but still, at least it explores these interesting topics!
Anyone reading this thread, do yourself a favor and check out Pantheon!
Good Work just recently put out a video on this very topic. Informative and hilarious as usual!
Thanks for posting the list!

Oh ok nice, thanks for the info!
The link you shared says only in specific circumstances can someone opt out of LexusNexus:
Opting out of LexisNexis can be more complex than removing your data from other people-search sites. To have your information taken down, you must meet specific criteria, and LexisNexis may request additional documentation:
- Victim of identity theft: you need to provide a police report documenting the identity theft or similar documentation.
- Law enforcement officers or public officials facing threats of severe bodily harm or death:** **you must submit a letter from their supervisor confirming the nature of their position and the threats.
- At risk of physical harm but not in law enforcement: you’ll need to submit a protective order from the court, a police report, or similar documentation.
Yeah I loved playing the first one! Hopefully there’s enough innovation to warrant a full sequel rather than just new content with essentially the same mechanics. Here’s hoping!
In this potential scenario, instead of axing 41% of people from the workforce, we should all get 41% of our lives back. Productivity and pay stay the same while the benefits go to the people instead of the corporations for a change. I know that’s not how it ever works, but we can keep pushing the discussion in that direction.
In the video description, the uploader mentions that X-men couldn’t be included due to copyright issues.
Mail forwarding doesn’t apply to all mail btw. For example, mail from the dmv.
After moving to a new place, I was expecting something from the dmv (had sent in the request months earlier before I knew I was moving). I had the mail forward in place, so figured I was good. I never received it, so eventually I called the dmv and they told me their mail is not redirected with a mail forward, and would just be returned to them.
I am curious if the same would apply to official election mail.
Ah, good catch I completely missed that. Thanks for clarifying this, I thought it seemed pretty off.
“Total streaming and tv snapshot”, duh… /s
Reminds me of that scene in Its Always Sunny where they’re using the thetan stand-in machine.
“What does this actually measure?” “…units!”
Underrated comment.
Fwiw, Amplosion is a great iOS app/safari extension to de-AMP google search results. Bonus: it’s made by Christian Selig, the dev behind Apollo (rip).
Also this one!
“I rewrote Portal from scratch and solved the Portal Paradox”
Is there a source for this data?
