  • You know what? If they want to turn him into a martyr, I want to turn him into a saint. St. Luigi of Baltimore. In fact, I want to erect a big statue of him, something deliberately over the top and in bad taste. Like how Dante wrote his political enemies into Hell.

    Think of the classical paintings and statues of St. Michael casting Satan into Hell.

    I want to crowd fund a big bronze statue like this. Except Luigi is St. Michael and Thompson is Satan. Thompson can be holding a scroll that reads “delay deny depose.”

    I say we put a gaudy statue like this somewhere near United Healthcare’s headquarters in Minnesota. Just this classical bronze of their former CEO as the Devil himself, being thrown into literal Hell by St. Luigi of Baltimore. Make them drive past the damn thing every day on the way to the office.

    The dedication on the plinth can read “In Memory of St. Luigi of Baltimore. Tear down this monument when Americans no longer die from lack of healthcare.”

    The bastards want to make him a martyr? I say we make him a SAINT.






  • An RTO mandate is proof of a company’s path to bankruptcy. Many executives mostly view work as a social club or a hobby, rather than an actual place of business. RTO mandates are undeniable proof that corporate leadership cares about the wrong things. Some just want to spend their day shmoozing. Some are psychopaths who just get a sick pleasure out of lording themselves over underpaid workers. Some are just sex perverts and dislike WFH because it makes it hard to rape employees. But regardless, a RTO mandate is damning evidence that a company is circling the drain. It’s evidence that leadership has lost the plot, and that they care more about vibes and then their own vanity than they do actually running a successful company. Short any company that uses RTO, as it’s a surefire sign they’re on the decline. They’ve officially lost the plot. An RTO mandate is as damning as a going out of business sale or having payroll checks bounce.
