Who needs a living wage anyway?

Hoping for some sweet Nestlé tunes next.

Let's sweep this under the carpet quickly, lest anyone criticise our favourite cherub.

this is worth calling out but why are you making this like a console wars thing

Ultimately, if I'm completely honest, it's because of studio Jabba.

Never forgiven him, nor Sonic Boom.

I'm off to bed. Night!

criticize is the american english spelling and criticise is the british american spelling .
it doesn't matter how the colour is spelt if you can understand what the color means, come ON now

regarding this issue, i'd like to hear what he has to say about it. but i dont know his reasoning. if i assume something, i may be wrong. i'm 50/50. has this in a way coloured your view of his latest EP and so on, Stan? perhaps?

i have a uniqlo shirt. we're all guilty of this shit in the 'first world'. I haven't fully formed my agenda enough but i'm living day to day, trying to make shit work, in a ultimately way significantly more priviledged manner than much of the world. I'm aware of that.

i give to charity. I dont know where half my clothes come from. I try to be nice to people. i eat out and buy pointless things like vinyl records. I work in the care sector. I drive a shitty petrol car. I care about my family. I'm 'good' in some aspects of my life, but not in others.

I guess what im getting at is im not perfect and there's not a fucking chance Panda is perfect and should he have researched Uniqlo more before accepting the job? yes. If he was aware, should he have declined the job? yes. Will he lose fans for his decision? Possibly. Was it worth it, getting paid for his decision? Possibly.

Maybe he didn't care to check if a huge company treats its employees properly, the same but on a way larger scale i haven't checked if the shoes i bought were made with unfair labour. Maybe someone should ask him.
There's a chance he was more concientious in some aspects of his life, but not in others.

what we do now, if this even affects you at all, is to do something about it, be it a boycott or an angry email, or remain indifferent. like we do in many aspects of our lives, but not others.

PS. entirely open to hearing where i've fucked up and wre wrong. also what does studio Jabba mean ?
