workplaces should have to legally provide unlimited paid sick leave available immediately upon hire. the limits that companies that even provide paid sick leave put on it is so fucked up. no one can control when they get sick, how often they get sick, or how long they are sick for, and they shouldn't have to suffer for the transgression of being ill.
"oh, but some people might take advantage of that and just stay home all the time and get paid for it!" if there is really a statistically relevant amount of people you have hired staying home on paid sick leave for months or years on end, perhaps your workplace sucks to be at, and you need to change.
give them reasons to come in to work. make it safer and easier to do their jobs. give them work that they can get invested in and talk to them about what that looks like. make sure you aren't overloading them with too much work or making unreasonable demands. pay them an amount that makes the work worth doing to them. actually form a working relationship with your employees instead of treating them like infinitely exploitable wage slaves.
only allowing your workers to accrew "2 hours a week of sick time starting after 6 weeks of employment" or some shit just doesn't match the reality of how sickness or human health works
Empire, Wyoming, was a pioneering African American settlement founded in 1908 near Torrington, Wyoming. The community was established by the Speese and Taylor families from Nebraska, who sought self-sufficiency and political autonomy during a time of widespread racial discrimination.
At its peak, Empire had a population of nearly 50 residents and notable institutions, including a post office, a Presbyterian church led by Reverend Russell Taylor, and a public school established in 1909. Sallie Thistle, a young teacher from Cheyenne, ensured the communityβs children received an education. These achievements reflected the settlersβ determination to build a thriving and self-reliant town.
However, Empire faced significant challenges. The settlers practiced dryland farming, which left them vulnerable to recurring droughts. Racial tensions with neighboring communities also posed threats. A tragic turning point occurred in 1913 when Baseman Taylor, one of the settlers, died after reportedly being beaten while in custody. This event demoralized the community and led to its decline.
By the 1920s, many residents had left due to hardships, with some moving south for better opportunities and others returning to Nebraska. By 1930, Empire had effectively disappeared. Today, its legacy is commemorated by historical markers in Wyoming, serving as a testament to the resilience and determination of African American homesteaders who pursued freedom and autonomy in the face of adversity.

i began reading the gita this evening, to be more in touch with my hindu roots. as i got deeper into it, i realized there's so many sayings there that can be associated with shifting and quantum immortality. here's a few i found so far: π¦ our very existence is in the atmosphere of nonexistence. actually we are not meant to be threatened by nonexistence. our existence is eternal. but somehow we are put into asat. asat refers to that which does not exist πͺ· what is this consciousness? the consciousness is i am. then what am i? in contaminated consciousness, i am means i am the lord of all i survey. i am the enjoyer. the world revolves because every living being thinks he is the lord and creator of the material world
π¦ in the Gita it is stated that the living entity has neither birth nor death. in the Gita it is stated that the living entity is never born and he never dies. he is eternal and indestructible, and he continues to live after the destruction of his temporary material body π―οΈ as a person casts off worn-out garments and puts on new ones, so the embodied soul casts off worn-out bodies and enters into others that are new π know that this body is but a field for the soul, and the knower is distinct from it i will post more soon :)
