What's a bandana but a deconstructed hat? I think this still counts.

Insects make up the greatest biomass on the planet and I bet not one of them votes.

It's only Responsible Foresight if it takes place in the Anglo region of Terra. Otherwise, it's just oriental inscrutability.

And not a single catgirl. I don't think this guy's even been to communist bookclub.

That's a good point. I suppose this could be important for folks paid on commission and things like that.

It's a rule the DoL issued in 2019 to "clarify" the prior FLSA regulations. I've also never heard of getting OT on benefits and I doubt there was any real confusion. Whether its good policy, I dunno. It's plausible to me that including non-cash compensation in overtime would disincentive benefits in a way that left the worker worse off, but, ya know, maybe healthcare and retirement shouldn't be contingent on one's employer.

Anyway, this is the Heritage Foundation trying to convert that rule to a law.
