Judge Rules That Movie Studio Should Have Been Paying Interns

Judge Rules That Movie Studio Should Have Been Paying Interns:

thenewhotness:

A Federal District Court judge in Manhattan ruled on Tuesday that Fox Searchlight Pictures had violated federal and New York minimum wage laws by not paying production interns, a case that could upend the long-held practice of the film industry and other businesses that rely heavily on unpaid internships.

Whoa

Lewis Lapham don’t pay no ta’

millsinabout:

Whiny-ass wannabe-New Orleanian, in an attention economy you are the 1%. Seems almost indecent for someone so endowed to begrudge the poor the occasional revolutionary expropriation, no? Remember: credit for work is the capital your new masters insist on stockpiling! Don’t let them erect onto the sinking old economy a new one in which they’ve already locked-up the currency!

They say, effectively:

Out with the old money being passed down in families, capital being passed among cronies.

In the the new: heritable talent being passed down in families, cultural capital being passed among cliques.

I say: if you think capital is unequally distributed, wait until you see the allotment of attention and what earns it!

Fight the attention economy. Steal a creation today.

In Soviet America, state remixes you.

actualhumandisaster:

Today someone asked me if I was okay with my current job and if I had any goals and if I wanted to do something more [emphasis on “more”] and that is just about the rudest fucking question.

SIT DOWN AND LET ME LEARN YOU A THING ABOUT ME!

I am not the kind of person…

Have you tried getting mad about it on the internet?

Love you, Neko.

A Bloody Mess: Hey New Followers.:

abloodymess:

Hello! Glad to have you be part of the team! (USA! USA! USA!)

Right now I am pretty much not following anyone back. I am at my limit where I can actively interact with everyone I follow. If that bugs you you know where the unfollow button is.

…..ok did we get rid of all the jerks? Yes? Good.

Welcome, NSA. I promise to follow back and hate read your blog.

"In the short term, Tumblr has redefined what success means for technology companies: sleek, cool,..."

Thu, 06 Jun 2013 22:51:58 -0500

“In the short term, Tumblr has redefined what success means for technology companies: sleek, cool, and nonpaying users are more important than revenue and profit. All of a sudden, success is no longer the moment when an emerging company crosses the financial threshold to where cash flow, margins, and market share increase and incremental expenses decrease. Tumblr’s way is a lot easier. It will not stand the test of time, but for now, every upstart technology chief executive is going to try to win the next lottery the way Tumblr did. And about 99 percent will fail.”
