  • “How do we pay artists”

    What if we didn’t pay anyone? What if farmers gave crops to cooks, who cooked for the people, some of those people are artists or authors, who create art for the people. Some of the people are musicians or singers or performers who entertain the people. Some of the people are builders and lumberjacks who build shelters for the people.

    I think this could scale. A government could oversee production and create jobs where needed, such as being able to have factories that produce phones that only come with what you want or need, none of the bloat or adware we get now. No new version every year, or if they do, they can pass down older versions to next generations, and recycle the oldest or broken phones.

    What if everyone had a laptop to network and be digitally productive, with a reliable connection to the internet. We would be right where we are now, except everyone is thriving. They dont get to be picky, but their needs can be met.









  • I dont think someone would put the effort into it. You can calculate those values yourself:

    • Divide 100% into whatever groups you want (60%, 25%, 15%)
    • Convert percentages to decimals (move the decimal 2 spots to the left: .6, .25, .15)
    • Multiply the decimal with your total amount to get the portion:

    25 * .6 = 15

    25 * .25 = 6.25

    25 * .15 = 3.75

    • Chech your work: sum the results together to confirm its the full value:

    15 + 6.25 + 3.75 = 25 ☆




  • Story: Someone spray-painted the ag farm cows.

    First-hand experience: A friend fingered another friend while we were all huddled for group discussion during a class. It was super casual. The rest of us looked away awkwardly or tried to continue the conversation.

    Rumors:

    • a sub teacher let a boy grab her breast
    • one kid was caught jorkin it in the drama class dressing room
    • a new sub teacher kept repeatedly adjusting his crotch
    • someone put Minecraft on the typing lab computers (it was me)
