Fat cancer femme queer needs another coffee hit. Downers were never my thing, these pain meds are turning me into someone’s Grandma (the kind that doesn’t eat chocolate and naps twelve times a day). 🦄🌈💕

The Leave campaign summed up.

[neonluna-deactivated20180823]

So you build your own fucking paddles, bigger and better ones. Britain isn’t going to fall on its knees from some independence, we all need to get our shit together. Just because we voted out doesn’t mean it has to be catastrophic. We build from it. We build bigger fucking paddles.

[oh-glasgow]

“I have an idea! We can build our paddles! Bigger and better ones! We’ll just use the wood from the bottom of the boat to do it!”

“Brilliant, Johnson! Get to it, everyone.”

[neonluna-deactivated20180823]

Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t realise you were blind. That little bit of wood there with ‘shit creek’ written on it? Yep. That can be used to build new paddles. We have the resources and power to carry on living and surviving as a lone country but it’s people like you that persuade other people that we can’t. Enjoy your erratic fear-mongering.

[oh-glasgow]

“Brilliant thinking! Let’s just move over to the side here and get this wood. We’ll just use… well… oh.”

“We could rock the boat a bit in that direction?”

“Great, get rocking everyone, don’t worry about any water coming in, it’s fine.”

*boat dangerously moves to the side with much flapping and people getting wet.*

“Righto, grab that little bit of wood with shit creek written on it.”

*grabs wood*

“Done it. Now what?”

“Do as I said! Make bigger paddles out of it! Yes, we’ll make bigger and better ones than the ones we had before using this little bit of wood.”

“Must have reliable transportation” = “this is how we legally discriminate against poor people who take the bus”

[courtcourttheshort]

As someone who has held several management positions with hiring responsibility, this is true. The boss at my last job informed me before I conducted my very first I interview,

“You can’t outright ask someone if they have a car or have kids. That’s technically illegal. But you need to know because sometimes they can be deal breakers. You can just say ‘Do you have reliable transportation?’ and ‘Do you have any current circumstances that could impede you from being successful at work?’

To which the last one most people fumble and would say, “Well I have kids, so sometimes they could get sick. But that’s not often.” But then your potential employer could mark it down on your interview notes nonetheless.

I thought that maybe it was just my own employer. But now I noticed that I am asked both of these almost every time I interview for a job.

Language is very sneaky. Be careful how you answer. Corporations can be snakes.

[iproposeawager]

In my businesses class my professor told us that the bus counts as reliable transportation. You do not legally have to say “I take the bus” just say “yes I do have reliable transportation” and leave it at that. Do not over share. DO NOT OVER SHARE. The second question just say no. If your kids are sick call out as if you are sick. I don’t have kids but I myself can get sick and that doesn’t hinder my ability to succeed so kids getting sick shouldn’t hinder you. When I call out I give as little info as possible. No one needs to know why you call out. They can’t ask about your “illness” because it violates HIPAA if they do. So as long as you don’t offer more info than you need to you should be okay.

I’ve never thought about it like this.

[pinkcheesegreenghost-deactivate]

You should keep everything to yourself as much as possible including social media (which is getting harder and harder to do) the less you offer the better.

i feel like ‘passing privilege’ is a term that needs to be replaced by ‘conditional acceptance’ and i want to write about it but i just don’t have the spoons

[sbstewartlaing-deactivated20180]

My family calls it ‘probationary privilege’– like, you can be accepted into the privileged group as long as you ‘know your place’ and act according to their standards and gloss over your actual identity/experiences.
