David Graeber wrote a book about this, called "Bullshit Jobs"

@ShadowJonathan Truth. There's a Bay Area guy that does that here in the Central Valley after big rains.

@ShadowJonathan I see someone has found post10 on YouTube

@ShadowJonathan there would not be a loose screw within a 3 mile radius of me.

@ShadowJonathan how has nobody mentioned post 10 yet this is literally who the post is referencing

@ShadowJonathan The Tuttle/Buttle gap.

@ShadowJonathan This is a cornerstone of my worldview.

@Hazzbenn @ShadowJonathan I might have done that once or twice.

I hate that whenever something like this is proposed, people act so incredulous and ask how one can be so sure that it would all work out, that there would never be anything that you needed to force someone to do. Like, yeah, maybe it wouldn’t work out perfectly, but why not try.

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt I will literally learn just enough about any topic related to tech and make something in it just because I have an interest in it. But I'm forced to "specialize" and "follow the company style"

@ShadowJonathan Torstein Veblen. "The Instinct of Workmanship". Somebody is on the brink of inventing UBI here.

@ShadowJonathan Tuttleism

@ShadowJonathan I would absolutely be one of the people who make art though. And maybe do a little bit of science.

@ShadowJonathan .-. I am thinking about this toot since I saw it yesterday night and like. I have no idea what I would do if I had access to universal income!

@d_olex @ShadowJonathan Most people say, they would go on working, but they don't trust others would. Maybe just have a little more trust in others.

@mortentorten @ShadowJonathan “The others” has obvious issues right at this moment with very basic stuff like not electing dictators and criminals for presidents, it does not inspire any trust like at all

@Vorsos @ShadowJonathan Air conditioning and heating to die for

@d_olex @ShadowJonathan That's because people get only shitty alternatives and are led to believe those dictators have their interests in mind. Why else are they always talking about the hard working people?
