143 - In the Foothills of the President's Decaying Synapses

Biden tops himself topping himself. Robber Barrons be robbin' (teachers, specifically).  Starbucks cracks down on labor unions. Amazon does the same in an even more dystoptian manner (see: list of banned words). Global supply chains be breakin' down. Student loans be unforgiven. People be lonely and weird and sex is off the menu for unintuitive reasons. Peter Thiel & Co. want to take away our fun drugs and MKULTRA them on our asses. Elon be Elon-ing. Tech monsters be tech monstering.  Support: patreon.com/heatdeathpodGeneral RecommendationsJD's Recommendation: AtlantaJNM's Recommendation:  DicktownFurther Reading, Viewing, Listening"I was in the the foothills of the Himalayas with Xi Jinping, I don't know that for a fact."Wall Street Is Fleecing a Bunch of TeachersStarbucks Is Desperate to Stop Unionization, So It’s Firing Worker LeadersLEAKED: NEW AMAZON WORKER CHAT APP WOULD BAN WORDS LIKE “UNION,” “RESTROOMS,” “PAY RAISE,” AND “PLANTATION”This Is What Happens When Globalization Breaks DownThe student loan pause has been extended until the end of the summerHow Everyone Got So LonelyLSD Capitalism Promises a Bad Trip for Us AllWHAT ELON MUSK COULD MEAN FOR TWITTERLocationless Locationsheatdeathpod.comEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Twitter: @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: [email protected], check out our newly updated YouTube channel for the hell of itSend us Fan MailSupport the showSupport: patreon / buzzsprout
