Martijn 🇪🇺🇳🇱

Trump suggested that he'd only accept #tariff #negotiations with the EU if the EU commits to paying a large, #yearly sum of money.

We have a word for that: #tribute

#Trump expects / demands the #EU to pay tribute to the #US.

Just #fuckoff already!

I'm not one to agree with the #Chinese #government often, but they called it nicely: the US is a #bully.

@EUCommission if you guys #negotiate, you might as well start licking his boots and pay tribute.

The Identity Politics of Masculinity as a Colonial Legacy

"The #PreColonial #Indonesian notion of personhood diverges from a western conceptualisation and is expressed instead through #cooperation, #mutuality, #sharing, #caring, and a readiness to #negotiate and #compromise – all of which are characteristics that are associated with feminine qualities and were thus considered inferior according to #Eurocentric understandings of the #subordination of women in #WesternSociety"

by Desi Dwi Prianti

"[In this paper] I argue that a hierarchical structure between masculine and the feminine was introduced by the #Dutch #colonisers – a structure in which they considered themselves to represent the superior, masculine side of the binary, whereas the colonised were seen as their effeminate subjects."

#Trump will replace #Obamacare with... a concept of a plan. Never mind that Obamacare is literally a plan created by the #heritagefoundation then vilified as #socialism because only 3 republicans would work with him, turning it into the weird Frankenstein that at least ended denial of coverage for #pre-existingconditions but if not for the #filibuster, it would have been a #publicoption that had the power to #negotiate down the #prices because economies of scale make that possible. Instead it was a handout to the #drugcompanies , and the best worst plan we could have. Trump just says its bad and has no plan to replace it with anything other than creating a #medical wild west that will let patients die. Don't believe me? that was standard practice prior to Obamacare.

Dollar Revolution

I’m an Architectural Designer but employed directly by a large bank.

Raises are typically 3-6%, but every few years it can be double that without a promotion. 10% bonus.

Raise was going to be 5.25%. I countered w inflation & salaries of comparable jobs (higher than avg). After lots of back & forth, ended up with a total increase of 21%! No change in duties.
