Unions are shit /  by Mirena Rhee

The shittiest organizations and shit holes I've ever worked for were always union.

The best companies I worked for had no union. Why would you need the union if you do a good job.

It's scary that teachers are Union. They have no idea what they're teaching because when they were studying to be teachers none of the technology was alive. So now they have to deal with the YouTube generation and they're completely clueless what to do with that stuff. You might as well teach kids how to make video games, they are going to learn how to code and they are going to learn how to do art and collaborate in teams.

Elon Musk is a genius and deserves his pay, he is not one of the tech bros or bras as I call them /  by Mirena Rhee

His work is a result of pain and sacrifices to return manufacturing to the US, and the US to space, and make life multi-planetary.

I wanted to explain the difference because many people do not understand. Most tech bros, and most interpreneurs on the planet, do whatever capital tells them to do. Whatever their investors tell them to do. Whatever they think will make them money.

Now the big difference is Elon Musk made his own capital to begin with and put all of it, all of his skin, in the game that he believes in. Now these are some major problems because most people dabble with other people's money, it's okay, they can fail and do some more with some other people's money.

It's difficult to put all that you have on Earth to pull off some impossible task. Not for days but for years and decades. That's major pain and suffering that very few people are capable of.

Now go and do that against major enemies. Balls. No wonder he hates bureaucrats because they've never been in the pain game and come home at 5:30.

There're some professions where you actually go to work after you put in the 8 hours. And the work is not done at 4:00 a.m., it's not done at 8:00 a.m. and at 3:00 p.m. the next day you haven't even scratched the surface.

And after 10 or 20 years you are barely starting.

People often try to engage me about money, and I'm like I just want to make awesome things /  by Mirena Rhee

People often try to engage me about money, and I'm like I just want to make awesome things.

When was the last time you thought that money was awesome? if that were the case people would be absolutely grinning and out of their minds happy going into a bank. Never seen a happy face in a bank.

For example when was the last time you paid to get a hug, I bet you think this is disgusting.

You go to an orchard and you pick a fruit and put it in your mouth, it's great. You go to the store and the fruits that you can buy there are rock hard and taste just like painted rocks.

You go to the sea in summer and dip your foot in the water, it's awesome. The paid version is a clawfoot bathtub in a penthouse and I can't remember many happy bathtubs from history.

Whenever the government asks me about my sex on forms /  by Mirena Rhee

Whenever the government asks me about my sex on forms

Whenever they ask I immediately think…

Why are my sexual organs or how do I use them any of your business?

In the interest of public disclosure I do have a vagina and it's in a pretty decent shape. That's all.

And I think, well, what do you mean?

Are you asking if I were born with a vagina?

Are you asking if I use my vagina regularly?

Are you asking if I use my vagina with a penis?

Are you asking if I prefer to have a vagina?

Are you asking me or you're telling me that I'll be using my vagina organs at work?

Are you asking me if I have the capacity to use my vagina?

Are you asking me if I want to use my vagina?

Are you asking me because you want me to use it at work?

Are you asking if I'm breeding?

Are you asking which side I'm on during breeding?

Are you straight up asking me if I want a dick?

What if I sport a vagina but I kind of fluctuate in my head, and that process has nothing to do with organs?

How do you know that I am not a robot?

The car culture destroyed American cities /  by Mirena Rhee

I always thought that using several tons of steel to move a single person from a to b is ridiculous. I can't imagine a bigger waste of resources like gas, ore, end road infrastructure to only have people confined and isolated to their car seats, couches, and office chairs. Millions of people strap themselves to their seats in their cars with belts, voluntarily imprisoning themselves in small coupes.

Don't take me wrong, when I lived in California I absolutely loved my car. I drove a Volkswagen and it was the only thing I shed a tear for when leaving.

In many cities there's nothing to do but eat, mostly sandwiched between a couch and a television, and the car.

In well developed cities you can stroll which is take a walk and look at landmarks and people without having to buy anything while simultaneously exercising.
