I’m confused and flattered that Twitter recommended me threads from the writing community. I’ve always wished I had that type of creativity and moxie. Hopefully they’ll reignite my dormant passion for reading.

1980: corporate CEOs made 42x their median worker
Now: corporate CEOs make 350x their median worker
In that time worker productivity soared 70%. CEO productivity didn't change.
Stop asking why workers "deserve" raises and start asking why only CEOs deserve it.
Signed,
A CEO

"I graduated with $78k in debt 14 years ago, paid off $60k and now owe $100k"
If we can't cancel student loans, we at least need to cancel predatory interest. It makes no sense that you can get 2.9% interest on a $1M house but pay 8.6% on a student loan.

Why would you move money in a way that would hurt the next administration from helping the American people? There is a certain evil in the decisions of the Trump team.

A reminder, 400 years after the Mayflower, that the Wampanoag people are still here, still practicing our culture, and still facing adversity
We didn’t just disappear or go extinct. And so I want to note some of the amazing things that we’re doing as a people (THREAD 👇)

Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.
