Yes, I support parents rights in education. I am a strong believer in a parent’s right to shut the fuck up

How do they scare people straight?

threaten rejection from family and society, justify hate in the name of god, spread myths about perverts and molesters, incite fear about disease, spread lies about human sexuality, threaten rejection from work and community, propagate lies about sin, publicly humiliate queers, withhold information about sex, erase queers from history, allow homophobia on television, deny queers equal protection under the law, promote family values, promise happiness to those who conform.

Last June, one middle-aged union engineer postponed a doctor’s visit for work then died of a heart attack on the job weeks later. A conductor who spoke with the Times began feeling rundown last year but declined to see a doctor for fear of being disciplined for taking an unplanned day off. Instead, he waited months for the next doctor’s appointment that aligned with a scheduled day off. He then learned he’d been suffering from an infection that could have been treated with medication weeks earlier but would now require surgery.

If a worker wants to take time off to recover from the flu, they need to notify their employer of this days before actually catching the virus. Given that workers’ contracts do not include paid psychic benefits, this is a tall order.

I’ve been in labs for a decade plus, and have been in charge of liquid nitrogen at more than one. I’m used to lil burns from when i should have been wearing longer gloves and i touch metal that’s been in it (takes longer than a burn from a cookie sheet to heal, i am very clumsy) but I’ve avoided anything worse than that. I managed to spill enough on my jeans today that it soaked through long enough that I’m sure it actually burned the skin underneath (a lil splash does nothing). I’m a lil scared to see what it looks like but my pants are too tight to roll up. This is what i get for deciding to be lazy and not move the tank into a better location.

I might be tempted to post it later, fair warning

I was very wrong, it’s fairly small and currently boring looking. Relieved but also disappointed

New name!!

Imagine the gender of the record eater changed too

You've lived so brightly. You've altered everything. I find myself searching for old selves while speeding forward through the plate glass of maturing cells.

I've played the unraveler, the parhelion, but even apocalypse is fleeting. There's no death, no ugly world.

Sometimes I wonder if you're mythologizing me like I do you.

This song always ruled, and continues to rule

But i always wonder: how many unsuspecting people read the story of the eye after this? Did it create a bataille spike??

I really should have just stuck it out here and never gone to Twitter
