Don’t worry, I’m sure there’s followup legislation in the works to limit disastrous climate events to a 4-day duration.

(This is still better than anything my country will do, of course.)

Can’t take credit for that one, but glad you enjoyed it!

It’s one of my favourite video essays -full stop-, and that’s honestly a pretty high bar.

Great followup too, even if it’s predictably infuriating and bleak.

Where I live, two of the three trades you listed require completion of 4-year apprenticeships, including a minimum of 6 weeks of in-school technical training per year. It’s much cheaper to train as an apprentice than it is to pay other post-secondary tuitions, and you earn an income most of the time you’re an apprentice, but the reality is a lot more complicated.

And it’s also very easy to be employed in most trades and not make that much. It depends on which trade you’re in, how much punishment you can take, and whether you’re in a union job or not.
