"Often you can read an instructional manual or a textbook or whatever, without paying all that much attention. You skim your way through it to get to the heart of the matter. But you can't read poetry that way. Poetry slows you down. And anything in our world now that slows us down is to be valued and maybe as a gift and even a calling from God."

- Ellen Davis quoted in Becoming Wise: An Inquiry into the Mystery and Art of Living by Krista Tippett

This is fucked up. Reminds me of when I was working at Whole Foods after they were bought by Amazon and one branch in Michigan or something unionized and then company-wide there were meetings everyone had to attend about how Whole Foods shouldn’t have unions. Powerpoint and everything. They literally said, “We’re not anti-unions we just don’t think they belong at Whole Foods.” Like wtf? Anyway, I being managed like that. Do they think their employees are stupid? Quit not long after. 

Amazon is making sockpuppet twitter accounts as an attempt to stop unionizing. Why have corporeal scabs when you can get AI-generated scabs?

I admire disciplined people so much. I admire people who can do what they need to do with a focused mind and unwavering commitment, not letting themselves get distracted and refusing to make excuses for themselves. I admire the kind of people whose eyes are on the prize, even if it’s far away, and who are determined, diligent and adaptive. I look up to the kind of people who refuse to succumb to any obstacle or challenge and transcend above the millions of things that stood against them and their goals. I admire those kind of people so much and I aspire to be like that so much more.
