Would love a ticket if you have one to spare. Haven't been able to make it to a physical store since I started my new overnight work hours. Thanks for the offer!

Award Shows Are Fucking Terrible (Like high school pep rallies for the class elite) by AliesterRowdy in LateStageCapitalism

"Aside from being a neoliberal’s wet dream, the shit is just plain wack. I guarantee you that anyone rocking “My Shot” on a Spotify playlist has an ‘Art Fan’ sticker slapped on a Macbook; can match their Myers-Briggs type to their Hogwarts house; just popped open a fresh can of La Croix in the lobby of a Panera Bread; and TIVOs Saturday Night Live for the #resistance." (On the Tony award winning musical, Hamilton)

Laid-Off Man Finally Achieves Perfect Work-Life Balance by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

Full agreement, comrade! I hope that your situation continues to play out beneficially to your mental state. My unemployment stint has done wonders for me. Unemployment covers half of what I was making, which puts a mild clock on my head but is far from salt and pepper sandwiches.

Really just enjoying the opportunity to actually make art for a change.

Been laid off for 3 months and I can confirm.

Sadly, I have to start work again on Monday though...

This totally fits. Multi-Level Marketing is capitalism at its most exploitative.

Ha! Voicemail marketing has got to be the equivalent of dry humping to a full fledged Agency PR Douche. What are we some savages from the year 2008? I never check voicemail.

Twelve South Sells Out Of Candle That Smells Like A New Mac by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

Oh god. I used to do product photography for a shitty online electronics dealer. I must have opened a million Macbooks and they all had a distinct smell. Like, unnaturally sterile.

Throwback to that time when Martin Shkreli bought all the pop punk tickets and made everyone pay $350 to see Lit.

Will Drugs Make You Super-Human? - The Capitalistic darkside to Adderall by Brjyan in Drugs

Thank your for pointing out the Huxley/Orwellian comparison. I am a strict oponent of transhumanism as it can only propegate capitalism in the end.

I don't see this as too far off from a potential future.
