The Energy-Price-Point of Digital Fabrication systems for building the tooling for Infrastructure Co-operatives has fallen through the floor over the last 25+ years.
I'm currently looking for partner-founders to start a co-operative for doing this.
If you know anyone interested, please put them in touch. :D
Reminds me of the photo's of Diamanda Galas for the "Plague Mass" live album. :D
Perhaps we need to start some planet-manufacturing projects... :D
@funnelfiasco This is also retroactive so if you were given a severance agreement that included either of those things, also maybe talk to a lawyer (which is also not me).
Also, Ben, I really really hope you weren't laid off, though being spared != unaffected. *hugs and tea*
If you're in the US and your employer offers you a severance agreement that includes non-disclosure and non-disparagement clauses, you might want to read https://www.dglaw.com/nlrb-finds-confidentiality-and-non-disparagement-clauses-in-severance-agreement-unlawful/
And also maybe talk to your lawyer because I am not a lawyer let alone your lawyer.
In a groundbreaking decision, the National Labor Relations Board (Board) ruled that a severance agreement with confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions was unlawful because it restricted the rights of employees to engage in protected concerted activity under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Given how prevalent such provisions are in separation agreements, employers will have to consider very carefully what revisions they may need to make to these agreements when offering severance in exchange for a release.
I want someone to produce SciFi/Fantasy films that have zero conflict. Just hours of gorgeous communist utopias with innovative settings, gorgeous landscapes, and beautiful concepts. Oh, and of course, characters queer AF.
Just people vibing, loving, caring, happy to exist and take pleasure in living in a purple star bubble spacecraft or cooperatively alongside cute creatures in a seafoam forest.
I am a writer and I know how storytelling works, but...
sometimes I want my escapism real chill.
