A few months ago, a man I work with tried to follow me to my car. I threatened to hurt him if he continued. He walked away, never did it again.

I didn't contact HR because it didn't turn into a bigger issue. It was resolved. I avoided him and forgot about it.

I found out today that he's done worse things to other femmes in the office. At least 4, almost definitely more.

I told one of the girls I work with about the incident. I told her I agree he should be fired, but I don't want to come forward. It was a little incident, and I've been fired for coming out about this stuff before.

I told her I didn't want to come forward. She immediately went and told our TL. She comes back and tells me he's going to come talk to me.

It was my choice not to come forward. And she took that from me.

I know. I know the best thing is for there to be justice here. In the great country of America, I don't expect justice. Even if a million people came forward. If this had been any bigger of an issue for me, I would have said something a long time ago.

I know I'm not the only one affected. But regardless of what I should or shouldn't do, she took the choice from me.

In a lot of ways, what she did today was the worst part of this whole situation.

Some of us are fighters and some of us aren't. Some of us pick our battles and some of us don't. Regardless of how you feel or what you would do, don't take that choice from someone else.

We are all doing the best we can under this crushing weight. We support each other by respecting each other.

This is actually something I was thinking about is that rent can not exceed 1/3 of monthly minimum wage income.

So let's say state is on federal Minimum wage which is about 1100 a month so in that state no matter what rent on any place could not exceed 370 dollars.

Even if minimum wage was 15 dollars (about 2400 a month) max rent could be 800

So if landlord want more money they would have to fight bosses and state legislature to get it.

Like average Pennsylvania rent is 1400 and in this world if landlord wanted to charge that the would have to get minimum wage raised to 26 dollars an hour.

everyone's like wehhhhh why doesn't doctor house gets suuuueeed! like my man. literally every patient he sees is someone that's been trying to find a diagnosis for ages. i could live with a little medical malpractice if it were coming from someone ready to break into my home to look for allergens and not simply half heartedly listen to me before suggesting I lose weight and take ages of back and forth arguing to order a single test

[bauliya]

"it's medical malpractice" have u ever been a doctor? most medicine is malpractice. let the man limp around chewing vicodin doing 50 invasive tests please

[clodiuspulcher]

Once Taub (derogatory) derisively said about a patient with unexplained chronic pain “7 doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with him, what does that mean?” and House replied without even thinking “it means they’re idiots” and proceed to work his ass off to diagnose the patient Taub wanted to write off as a faker or something. If a doctor had said that when that patient was ME, I wouldn’t dream of suing them in a million years

“lgbt people are allowed to hate religion and u can’t call them out for it”

nah. im allowed to be like, distrustful and wary of and even hate christianity specifically, b/c i come from a christian background. 

that doesn’t mean that 1) im allowed to give lgbt christians grief or 2) im allowed to be islamophobic or antisemitic

my friend is studying for the mcat and was just trying to explain to me about heat transfer and she said ‘you know, like the reason you get cold when you go outside on a freezing day is that your tiny human body is trying to warm up the entire universe’ and i think that’s the best thing i have ever heard

Books that people read romantically but shouldn’t because they’re missing the point:

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

[ami-saturna-deactivated20210622]

That’s your opinion.

[myutsuumoved-deactivated2014052]

there’s nothing romantic about a pedophile rapist, the senseless murder-suicide of teenagers because families can’t get their shit together or the hypocrisy of the roaring 20s

FINALLY SOMEONE SAYS IT

[malcolm-f-tucker]

I wish people would stop saying “It’s July. Well done for wasting half a year.” Did you make someone smile in the past six months? Did you stroke a cat or throw a stick for a dog? Did you learn a new fact or teach someone a new joke? Did you laugh, cry, scream or sing in the past six months? Because if so, congratulations for not wasting your time at all.
