A real thing that happened is me as a teenager.

I had what turned out to be a dangerous walking pneumonia, for a week, but the manager at Burger King wouldn’t let me off.  My breathing was very loud and ragged.  I was coughing on and breathing on the food.

I wasn’t allowed to leave.  I was told if i called out, I was fired.

So Im shuffling around wheezing loudly swaying with my high fever as I work drive thru by myself, and a paramedic walked in to order dinner.

He goes ballistic, My friends.  He demands to see the Manager.  he chews him out at the top of his lungs so the whole restaurant can here.  Guys working the back came up to watch.  Customers staring and thinking hard about the infectious food they were eating.  Dude losing his shit about how infectious I was and all the people management had been endangering for days judging from my breathing and I needed to be home on antibiotics RIGHT NOW and the health Department was going to hear about this.

I went home.  i got the week off.  Didn’t even need a doctor’s note.

Getting friends management doesn’t know to do this WOULD WORK.

Same manager not letting me take my influenza home a year later  despite repeated vomiting?  Threw up in front of customers.  Customers demanded money back and started threatening the manager with lawsuits.

I got to go home and got time off until I stopped vomitting.

GO AHEAD and THROW UP in front of Customers.  THEY will Complain.

Don’t be shy.  

They are supposed to let you stay home when you are sick.  Stop protecting management. (Hiding how sick you are protects management).  They are abusing you.  Let them reap what they sow.

Activists in Tasmania have stuck up more honest promo stickers inside Coles & Woolworths stores, the two dominant supermarket chains in Australia.

And if you do get paid for your ideas/writing during the strike, that is considered scabbing and you will be barred from the WGA for life, as per this email from the Blacklist:

[neil-gaiman]

And, because a lot of people don't understand this bit, this is about you selling your ideas or writing to US-based TV studios or movie studios who are part of the AMPTP. There is no strike against book publishers. Nor audiobooks, graphic novels, or poetry publishing. Or just writing.

Read the above from the WGA.

extremely unsexy of adhd to make me both very annoying and very sensitive to the concept of being perceived as annoying

Some of you don't understand how billionaires make their money and it shows. Tumblr is like "eat the rich" until the rich literally get eaten.

I don't want anyone to die a pointless death but these people, by virtue of how wealth is amassed, have blood on their hands. I'm not the least bit upset that people are memeing on OceanGate and this completely absurd and avoidable situation.

It's sucks one of them is 19 but screaming about cruelty and empathy is pointless virtue signaling for the sake of trying to look like a soft-hearted empathetic person. That's not true empathy, that's a front.

Fuck it. Be ghoulish. Remember when assholes in NYC were drinking champagne on their balconies while people protested in the streets during the Occupy movement? Have any of the ruling class said anything empathetic about the bodies that litter our borders and seas?

We all know the billionaire class doesn't give a fuck about us. The rich chucklefuck Titanic tourists are part of the same population that consistently lobbies against protections for the poor and oppressed, healthcare access, labor regulations, etc.

At the end of the day, if I could wave a magic wand and save them, I would. Dead shitty humans are still humans. But I'm not at all upset that people feel a sense of ironic, comedic cosmic justice in this.

If you want to feel a self-righteous sense of piety by bitching at those of us who find this kinda funny, good luck with your white knight campaign. You look a bit like a clown though.

Cracking jokes about the tin can science fair death-tube isn't violence, it's morally neutral. We're frustrated and tired.

For y’all in the notes saying “well actually rock n roll and the food here were made by marginalized communities who were discriminated against” I hate to break it to you but you’re like two steps away from saying “well black people and Mexicans aren’t actually American the same way white people are” because whatever the reason, whether it was through oppression or not, BIPOC have influenced American culture an incredible amount and it’s so disrespectful and racist to say they don’t actually count as Americans

[forgotn1]

American culture isn’t exclusively white culture. American culture is far deeper and more diverse than that.
