@freemo loosely related: Did you know that in France, you can acquire a house by paying the owners a pension until they die? If you're into gambling or "accidental" deaths, buying a viager is for you: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/v/viager.asp

I am american. While killing a thing is always on the table we prefer to exploit something first, killing it is the backup plan.

"Climate change is arguably one of the greatest challenges today. Although the scientific consensus is that human activities caused climate change, a substantial part of the population downplays or denies human responsibility. In this registered report, we present causal evidence on a potential explanation for this discrepancy: motivated reasoning."

Over the recent months, in the context of #feminicides and other everyday #violence, I'm starting to more and more think that #patriarchy is not the cause. It's just the tip of the iceberg. It's the widespread #detachment that just makes us not care about any signs of social problems around us... until these problems enter the always-hungry-for-sensations news cycle. But I'm struggling to find how to operationalise, measure and underline this hypothesis.

@freemo right. In California, everyone makes the same minimum hourly wage of $16 regardless of tips. There's no "employer discount" for tipped employees like at the federal level and many other states. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/minimum-wage/tipped
