If we don’t tip, where is the motivation to make companies actually pay their workers?

The original numbers were put out by a marketing agency and have been criticized as inaccurate. Other attempts to quantify private jet usage do not show Taylor Swift in the top 30. Travis Scott, Kim Kardashian, Elon Musk, Beyoncé & Jay-Z, and Bill Gates hold the top 5.

How does buying something that’s manufactured in China directly fund genocide, especially if the company you’re buying from isn’t even based in China?

Purchasing an item manufactured in a country whose government is committing genocide is not the same as refusing to support a country’s leader who is directly supporting a genocide. I feel like this is obvious but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised since your other comment indicates you believe in horseshoe theory.

Same, JustWatch is really great imo. It lets you browse by streaming service, sort by popularity, and filter by rating or genre. You can also browse recently added titles to different streaming services.

Severance gets a lot of talk, which is well deserved, but I also second Slow Horses because I feel like I never hear about it and it’s also good (through Season 1 at least, that’s all I’ve watched so far).

It's so cool that ~~we are~~ Capitalism is giving young women the idea that they can make money by selling their body. I'm sure that is great for society.

FTFY

Whether doing sex work, manual labor, or a desk job, you are selling your body for profit. If you have a problem with that then you have a problem with Capitalism.

Increasing the money supply would have been fine if it had gone into working people's pockets, infrastructure, jobs, housing, and other productive uses. But yeah, when it's just pumped into the stock market or funneled through business via PPP then, go figure, the rich get richer while everyone else suffers.
