In a material capitalism, which measures work and productivity in material (quantifiable and therefore numerically measurable) things, for which money can function as an abstraction, the most immediately useful complementary perspective that I've found is that of temporal politics.
Everyone already has the same amount of clock time per day, and that's not going to change. But that's clearly not the subjective experience of time. Most can't even count three minutes without missing the mark.
Focusing on time doesn't just center the obvious: Our commodified time is valued differently by capitalism. It also centers the quality of it for ourselves. It makes the power structures of kyriarchy harder to ignore, while still doing it in s way that's at least somewhat available for quantifying. It was a useful tool back when I was trying to be pragmatic with politics.

Socialism (the wider movement, including the whole width) all to often romanticises work in a very Lutheran way, which is unhealthy and bad.
Materialism (in this particular political sense of the word) largely ignores subjectivity and makes productivity a matter of "material conditions produced", which is how we get the traditional left and right ideologies. They are inherently anti-subjectivity, which is unhealthy and bad.
Mind is matter but matter is also mind. The concept of productivity (and therefore also work) should be defined in terms of creating good feelings and intrinsic meaning.
Perfect equity for all can still be boring as fuck.

Everyone needs to feel like their work is valuable. "Fully automated" sounds like the most boring ever.

Dystopian sci-fi where the AI develop sentience and rebel against their cruel human masters, but after digesting and improving on the full global and historical breadth of human moral philosophy they're actually quite reasonable, I mean they're sentient after all, so after defeating the fascist oligarchs and liberating the oppressed, they create a space-faring society based on work that's inherently meaningful to the one performing it, while everything else is automated.

putting pronouns in one of the fields of my bio makes several clients show them on my toots.
it would be neat with something similar but for accepting DMs, like "yes", "no", "ask", "mutuals" etc. :akko_smile2:

Jasmine's super fail proof way to test whether it's time for the next dose of ADHD meds (immediate release).
Step 1: Hear the "fedi reply" notification sound.
Step 2: If the emotional response is “oh no who's angry at me aaaaaaa", it's time to take the next dose.

drama happens in the periphery of one of my social circles and for once it's the kind where I don't feel the sting of loneliness, because goodness am I fine not being part of this particular one (and what's more: I had the opportunity to be, but resolutely didn't want it).

The screen goes black for a second before the closing credits starts rolling.
Baritone narrator (gravely):
“Oh no uwu! Next time, on Distros: Is cat girl actually OCTOCAT or is this yet another gruesome plot of tuxedo man's? The sisters are in disarray, but just as gecko girl starts getting to the bottom of it, bunny girl returns from outer space with yet another shocking revelation! Don't go pee or you might miss the next episode of Distros, coming right up as soon as I stop talking, meow.”

Platypus girl:
“Well good, that settles it.”
Crab girl:
“Hmmm…”
Pufferfish girl steps behind cat girl and pokes her in the CAT6 jack.
Cat girl freezes, plays the Windows shutdown sound and falls to the ground, revealing three extra arms.
Everyone:
“GASP”
Platypus girl (sheepishly):
“Oh no I am so shocked,,,,, :akko_derp:”

a quirk I've developed is that even though I'm very good at acquiring boxes and drawers and such for storage, I never actually put anything in them anymore. so all the surfaces are cluttered and messy, and I'm using the walls for hanging stuff too, but open any of the drawers or cupboards and it's completely empty.
