  • It saving billions isn’t argument against it being good for employees/most people. If say the government introduced a bill that required every company to send 5% of their money to Russia, fighting the hell out of that bill would save them billions and would be in line with what most Americans want. There are more realistic ones like pretty much every iteration of the kids online safety act.

    It might be a good rule of thumb, but it definitely isn’t the only argument/proof needed.

    She’s a “self-made” female billionaire. Her money isn’t from something like Walmart or Amazon, where it’s obvious how she’s exploiting people. It’s clear she’s very talented. And she seems smart and like she won’t get pushed around by scummy music execs (Taylor’s version).

    Her music speaks to people and makes them feel like they’re understood and like they understand her. When she got a lot of hate (because most things teenage girls enjoy get a lot of hate), plenty of people felt personally attacked, and that made them more defensive and appreciative of her. She poked fun at the stereotypes making her more endearing.










  • It generally takes months. It’s not like women can lactate just by pushing their nipples either.

    In the ordinary course of events, they need to get pregnant, build up all the ducts and milk producing cells, and then get the right combination of hormones to trigger milk production. And then you have to keep removing that milk, or it stops.

    You can get people not going through pregnancy to lactate by giving them the hormones. Recovery from famine can also produce the needed hormone spike.
