Not really a meme, I know, but I thought this was amazing and worth sharing and I didn't know where else to share it on Lemmy.
Ursula LeGuin was an incredible person and, although she did live a long life, her death was still a huge loss.

Mad respect. She has bigger balls than I do.
A few months back my boss asked me if I wanted to join him and the CEO for coffee. Apparently the CEO was doing a thing to see how the lower level employees were feeling about things. It's not exactly a small company either, few people at the company meet the CEO.
I turned him down because I knew it would be too tempting to tell the man to his face that he is effectively a dictator, that the company should be employee owned, that they shouldn't have the power to restrict where people work (90% of the staff can do their jobs remotely), etc.
And saying that shit would have probably lost me my job.
Lmao friend, you probably did well to say nothing and not participate. But please don't forget: you got good ideas
Yeah. There is a time and place, you gotta choose your battles. That was very much not one of them.
