Seriously though if you teach #theatre in ANY capacity DO NOT assume the geeky boy in the corner will do all the "tech".

Teach the women in the room to rig lights, to programme the desk, to turn the mics on.

The Supreme Court is off the rails. Some ideas for reform:

1) Enact term limits
2) Enforce ethics standards

Amazon's CEO made $212.7 million in compensation in 2021 while the typical worker received $32,855.

That's a ratio of 6,474 to 1.

Now we learn that the company spent $14 million on anti-union consultants...

Don't tell me that Amazon can't afford to let workers join a union. https://twitter.com/jamieson/status/1641956543376572417
