And, if the answer is, ‘yes, it has value’, then – logically – the task should be respected, seen, and supported within society.

I’d go so far as to say it should be recompensed, too – in fact, I’d propose that should be in direct proportion to how much value it has.

Only, how would we ever be able to assign anything approaching true value to things?

"Give us your feedback" is one of the most sinister sentences you can write as a yuppy marketing "professional".

No, no, no.

When you have an ask, hire a professional technical writer (we are editors first)

Rewrite your sentences:

"For your feedback, we are offering"

🔲 1000 USD
🔲 50-350 shares of stock
🔲 A fully paid vacation weekend at a resort
🔲 A week of paid work equal to 1/52nd the salary + value of stock given the CEO per year.

I just love this story about #Art producers turning the black mirror onto the greedy tech bros.

“There are those of us who have been deprived of human confidence. Those who have not been able to develop the conviction that they have anything of value within. Their gap is rather a chasm.

And they most often despair of creating any bridges to the land of what might be. They were not accepted as little children. … They were never truly loved by any important human other. …

And so it seems to me that the most essential element in the development of any creation, any art or science, must be love. A love that begins with the simple expressions of care for a little child.
“When people help us to feel good about who we are, they are really helping us to love the meaning of what we create.”

“Let me tell you all, to think that the #men that we love could be either #unaware or #indifferent to our plight is simply heartbreaking. It is a sad statement about our #value as #women…. It is both a setback in our quest for #equity & a huge blow to our country’s standing as a world leader on issues of #WomensHealth & #gender #equality. So fellows, before you cast your votes, ask yourselves, what side of history do you want to be on?”

Normalize adding "anchor links" to article headings on blogs and news articles on the Internet. All you have to do is add a value to the id attribute on the heading element. Doing that will allow people to share the exact spot in the article they want to share just by adding #value-of-id-attribute at the end of the URL.
