“Maximizing shareholder value” is the biggest turd of corporate speak. As Boeing can attest, it means delivering short-term gains for stockholders (and bonuses for the exec team) at the expense of the company’s long-term health.

“crocodile tears”
I hate that term. Crocodiles are beautiful creatures, these people on the other hand are a disgusting virus.

I still find it hilarious, that the job that costs the most (corporate CEO), that does the least (corporate CEO) is also the one job not being highly automated.

Who could have possibly seen this coming!? Expanding at an unprecedented rate has never gone poorly ever, especially when you don’t even have the funds in hand to do so. I’m shocked, shocked I tell you!

All jobs will inevitably be outsourced until it is straight up illegal to do so.

So much of our government is based on gentlemen’s agreements that it’s surprising it’s taken them this long to realize nothing is actually compelling them to act like gentlemen.

Listen, it’s okay that people who have a verifiable track record of abusing partners have access to weapons that make it easier to abuse them even more, because people in the 18th Century totally thought that domestic abuse was a thing. Totally!

The studios have no doubt been licking their lips at the prospect of scanning actors and reusing them endlessly in whatever they fancy for free. They’re not going to give that up easily.

Excellent point made by someone on Twitter:

Which is bizarre, because Terrence Howard turned into Don Cheadle and no one cared.

It’s weird that they built an entire show around how Loki variants DON’T ALL LOOK LIKE TOM, but all of the Kang variants need to look like Majors?
