In Vivek #Ramaswamy's incredibly stupid mind, #Eminem would support him if he was "keeping it real". Ramaswamy's sense of #entitlement is astounding. He think he's the natural and rightful recipient of Em's adulation by virtue of the fact that he likes Em's music. Ipso facto, Em should be all about Ramaswamy. What a fuckin toolbox.

āWhat weāre seeing [is] another sad incident in the slow-motion car crash of the #victorian model of #curation that weāve seen going on at the #BritishMuseum said Hicks, the curator of world #archaeology at Oxford Universityās Pitt Rivers #museum.ā
āā¦arguing that the British Museum & some other #uk nat museums were still clinging to the imperial #nostalgia of having āsome God-given #entitlement to hold on to these objects & not to tell you about itā.

Like, anyone could take any of the MPL licensed code from Hashicorp from a week ago and build a business off of it without paying Hashicorp a penny. That's still an option. Also, it could be forked and dual licensed as GPL and continue on as FOSS, but people think that because they submitted a bug fix under a CLA once, that Hashicorp should maintain a FOSS version for free in perpetuity with paid engineers. #FOSS #entitlement #Hashicorp
"Britons have become so mean that many of us think poor people donāt deserve leisure time"
...says Frances Ryan.
It's the (pulling up the) drawbridge mentality.

The most bewildering experience during the past week: employees of #evil #corporations that trumpet about their sense of #entitlement to be given the benefit of doubt.
The very moment when they try to screw everybody over again, not even bothering to figure out any new scheme for that.
Folks, even your bathroom mirror cringes and cracks when you look at it in the morning, practicing that "trust me" look.

The sense of #entitlement exhibited by this ass-clown is truly amazing. He's beside himself in self-righteous, #Christian fear over the possibility that #dragQueens could show up at his "wholesome" book peddling operations and read #books to the #children! Oh, the humanity! #Cameron is the worst sort of Christofascist. He's always right because he follows the Bible. And since he's right, everyone else is wrong. That's seriously how this dude goes about his day.

This shit is out of control. $21/hr to make sendwitches & work in a cafe.
Talk about white privilege.

I used to love watching the #American version of the #AntiquesRoadshow.
Iām traveling and came across the #British version on one of these tv channels, and they just keep reminding me about #colonialism and #colonization.
So many #people #celebrating #looted items from their #familiesā questionable #histories.
The hosts frequently ask what their guests plan to do with their āgood #fortunesā, and I just donāt hear anyone saying #GiveItBack

People who do not use headphones when watching videos, talking on the phone, etc., or in this case, video conferencing, will someday occupy a special place in Hell.
So annoying. So very annoying.
(Mind you, if you are on the phone or video conferencing, you need to go some place private anyway. One-sided conversations are also supremely annoying. For that, I have read the science: We are wired to find that particularly psychically disruptive.)

It's always amazing to see entitlement in action. These people are mad at pickleball noise from the tennis courts, which means that they were rarely used. Presumably, they bought near the tennis courts for a reason.
It's the same when people get mad at others for using the community pool or having a holiday party in the park shelter. Somehow some view it as _their_ amenity, despite it being public and their never using it. (NYT gift article)
Folks who think itās sensible, reasonable, moral to #banbooks, shut down #DEI, use anti #CRT #propaganda, support the anti #AffirmativeAction of this largely corrupt #Scotus (Thinking of Legal Insurrection) should read #Caste by #IsabelWilkerson
BTW, I recognize that itās all deliberate, has nothing to do with sensibility and all to do with #racism Itās built in to the fabric of this nation #WhiteSupremacy #entitlement
I celebrate #July4th only for the hope we one day grow in to justice

I've always been impressed by JaneFriedman's column, Ask the Editor. This week's post by Allison K. Williams is an utterly frank & rigorous analysis of why a twice professionally edited book hasn't been picked up by agents. And kudos to Jane's follow-up where she nails the writer's assumption that it was because they *aren't* BIPOC.

If youāve inherited or amassed wealth that could sustain hundreds or thousands of lives beyond your own, you unquestionably have something that ā in part ābelongs to some of your contemporaries.

Is ageism one of the few ways a cisgender Caucasian male can directly experience an ism? One of unavoidable changes of life which shift social identity. Could it be that cisgendered males in power have a hard time living in to this? Lot's of weird behavior from powerful old dudes.

Every quote from #ElonMusk here is dripping with #privilege and #entitlement. Which, as he's a multizillionaire, I guess is on brand.

I'm boosting this story for my chatty young male friend drinking a #Coors, mid day, at Storys in #CleelumWa this week.
The bottom line is one needs to buckle up & NOT drink & drive...
#Entitlement is not always a money gig. :(

Life tip: If you're complaining to the world on fedi, people try to help, and you respond by mistreating them: you will most likely get blocked, no matter your background. Not everyone has the time to deal with your entitlement.
