That @maitlis intro last night was fucking everything, wasn't it? And, let's widen out from the pandemic, we have NEVER been in this together. Nearly as big a con as the trickle down economy.

Related, I watched a few minutes of James Corden's show last night, celebrities asking the public for money for charities. A few thoughts - charities should not be propping up social care, taxes should. If you are using the pandemic to pimp your new songs, have a word w/ yourself

Mega-rich people really need to stop asking us for money. Pay your taxes, STFU. And honestly, celebrities have never seemed so entirely irrelevant and out-of-touch. Fucking embarrassing.

I'd also like to know how these celebrities have treated their staff during the pandemic. Their cleaners, chefs, drivers, stylists, PAs, hairdressers, their pool cleaners, gardeners, nannies, etc. Here's my thought, they don't all walk the walk as well as they talk the talk.
