This explained why I feel the way I feel about being a wage slave. I‘m resistant about being plugged in to social media and dislike my employer‘s attempts to connect every work action to data. This mess we‘re in globally is quite a spiraling web. Wake up!

Aimeesue Agree with you 1000% about connecting all work to data. It‘s completely ruined health care in the US, not that it was great to begin with. If it‘s not billable, it rarely gets done. 😡 2mo

Reading the tagged to get a sense for what my neighbors to the south might have to deal with if Republicans win. Have been slightly under the weather for a while. Just finished a book though. I am also enjoying listening to the few episodes of #houseofhalliwell that they managed to include Shannen Doherty in. And Scott Patterson's #iamallin is giving me life. #saturdaychatterday

This thoughtful book makes the case for a fundamental change in how we view wealth, productivity & a meaningful life. Where decades of neoliberalism have resulted in a culture that applauds the insatiable accumulation of wealth & the idea that paying taxes is for suckers, the author explores the true cost of wealth inequality & how we can create a more equitable world. A measured, clear-eyed vision of a world where we value things differently.

#TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe
Had to jump in for this one (but couldn‘t quite narrow it down to three 😆)
1. Tagged
2. Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness by Susannah Cahalan
3. The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, the Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made by Greg Sestero and Tom Bissell
4. The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson
5. Between Two Kingdoms: A Memoir of a Life Interrupted by Suleika Jaouad

Apparently I really like memoirs 📚

monalyisha I‘ve been intending to read the last two on your list for so long! I even bought # 5 for a friend (who has been dealing with her own traumatic medical mystery for over a year now). 9mo
shortsarahrose @monalyisha of all the ones on the list, those two are the ones I‘ve been most meaning to reread. I really related to Sulieka‘s memoir because we both got sick around the same age (her with cancer, me with Crohn‘s), and been changed by the experience even after getting into remission. We also both relapsed around the same time (I follow her Substack and have been meaning to watch the doc American Symphony with her and her spouse but known I‘ll 😭) 9mo
monalyisha I also subscribed to her substack for a while! I was hoping it would give me the kick I needed to actually write & journal more. Instead, I just guiltily buried the emails in my overfull inbox without even opening them, so I unsubscribed. It seemed really cool, though! 9mo
shortsarahrose @monalyisha yeah, I never actually do the journaling prompts. I just like reading them, though 🤷🏻‍♀️ 9mo
dabbe Even more to explore! Thanks for sharing. 💚💙💚 9mo

Currently reading This Changes Everything and feeling like my book club hates me. Over 400 pages of doom ahead of me I‘m afraid. Not like it‘s not important, but it‘s what I already know. Why did everyone vote for this?!

But on a sweeter note…it‘s Nova‘s first photo bomb. I‘ll never be mad at a cute dog photo bomb.
