do you ever read fanfiction so good you wish it was a book that you could buy and put on some shelf in your bedroom and gaze at sometimes and remember how amazing that motherfucker was instead of having to squint at it on your too bright phone screen at 3 am
Yessssssssss
funfact if you go to settings>general>accessibility>display accommodations you can turn your brightness lower (or brighter)
DO NOT DO THIS.
This makes me so angry.
If you work in a movie theater and you do this I have no respect for you.
My younger brother is Type 1 Diabetic.
When we go to a movie theater, we always get him diet soda. If he were to get regular when we asked for diet, we would not give him the insulin he would need for it. If that happens, his blood sugar level could go so high he could go into a coma, go blind, or even die.
If somebody gave him regular soda instead of diet without telling us, that person could be responsible for a nine-year-old being killed or blinded.
Just thinking about that makes me so angry. I get scared every time we take him to a movie in case the people working there saw this picture and decide to do the same thing.
Please signal boost this so people know.
This also applies to baristas
Fun story about the baristas doing this kind of shit.Â
I am very sensitive to lactose, not Lactose intolerant but because of stomach ulcers that are still healing. A couple years ago I went to Starbucks right after my classes with some friends and asked for a green tea latte with soy milk. The barista, for some reason out of malice and/or hate for her life so she took it out on me, gave me whole milk in my latte.
5 minutes after my first sip of latte, my stomach cramped BAD. Not the “Oh! time to poop!” kind of cramp but it felt like someone had stabbed me with a knife and twisted it. Now I’ve had this happen before so I knew the cause of it. I went up to the barista clutching my gut screaming at her that she put dairy in my latte rather than soy LIKE I REQUESTED. She denied it and called me a “pretentious white girl for wanting soy”and so my friends got the manager. I had to explain that I had stomach ulcers that were still healing and if I were to go to the hospital for this incident, they would be responsible for it.
Manager flipped his shit and the barista was terrified out of her mind. Pretty sure both thought i was gonna sue. Manager actually fired her on the spot because of the negligence. My friends managed to get me home in one piece while I stayed home for 3 days in absolute agony and missed my midterm.
So remember kiddies, if someone is asking for Diet or “Skinny” or “soy” or anything that is not regular, give them what they requested because it may not be them being healthy, but a dietary need that can possibly be life or death
also if they ARE trying to be healthy you should give it to them to!! Its not your decision to police or question others food choices!!!Â
also im lactose intolerant AND ive had stomach infections/ulcers so i feel this.Â
I have Celiac Disease, so I’m very gluten intolerant. When I go out to eat at restaurants a lot of people just assume that I asked for my food gluten free because of the gluten free diet fad (which is usually a bullshit diet btw).Â
Last month I went out to dinner with a friend at an italian restaurant that had a small gluten free menu. I had been there once before and had their gluten free pasta and it was great! I think one of the managers had been there and was super helpful when taking my order to make sure that everything was gluten free for me. When I ordered the gluten free pasta again this time though, the waitress who took my order all but rolled her eyes at me. I didn’t think much of it at the time, because the restaurant was so accommodating before, I just assumed it would be the same this time.
But sure enough, they brought out my pasta, I ate it, and about an hour later I had extreme stomach pains and was throwing up (in a movie theater no less).
Barfing and agonizing pain aside, eating gluten when you have celiac causes a lot of internal damage that’s hard to notice. The biggest thing is that it damages your intestines, preventing your body from absorbing nutrients properly, which can take months to heal.
So PLEASE, if you work at a restaurant or anything with food and someone asks for something a certain way, please listen to them and don’t just disregard someone’s order. It’s not funny and it can have serious consequences.
I will reblog this with every single story about someone getting sick because of an asshole giving them the opposite of what they ordered until it sinks in for everyone.
Recently on the news a 16 year old boy with a dairy allergy had gone to eat at IHOP with his family. The specifically asked if they could make dairy free pancakes and they said yes. Not too long after he had a reaction and was rushed to the hospital. This kid died because the was dairy in his pancakes that they asked for no dairy. His epi pen that his mother had wasn’t enough to help him. I know working in fast food or any job that’s serves food and beverage sucks but not as much as causing someone to get sick over negligence.
My youngest cousin – who is now five, he just started kindergarten – has Celiac’s disease. You would not BELEIVE the amount of times I’ve heard my aunt say she’s ordered something gluten free, only to watch the waiter or waitress’s eyes go huge when she gives it to my cousin – my cousin with the medical id band on his tiny five year old wrist proclaiming I HAVE CELIACS and have to take it back. Shit like this could kill my cousin. Knock it the fuck off.
I cannot tolerate caffeine–it makes me have chest pain and a racing pulse, and also gives me horrible body pain, so I always ask for decaf if I order coffee when I’m out, and doublecheck with the waiter/ress when they bring it. but instead of saying “is this decaf like I asked for?” I always say “oh, did I remember to order decaf?” I shouldn’t have to act like I’m the forgetful one (because I know damn well I asked for decaf) but it seems to work better than implying that they screwed up when I take the blame on myself like that. and if there’s any hesitation when they answer, I tell them, “if there’s any doubt, please get another one, or just give me water–if this is regular, it’ll mess up my heart” and lots of times when I say that, they look alarmed and go change it or get another one.Â
but I shouldn’t HAVE to share my personal medical history with strangers just to get my order right! no one should! how is it their business? it makes me really uncomfortable to have to do that. JUST GIVE PEOPLE WHAT THEY ORDER!
I’ve reblogged this maaaany times before but there’s a few new stories on here so i’m doing it again.
cut this shit out
don’t be that kind of asshole.
As a diabetic, this would make me so beyond angry. Skinny doesn’t mean they don’t have a life threatening illness. Skinny doesn’t mean they can process sugar the way you do. People that do this are the worst kinds of people. DO NOT DO THIS!
Me and my family went to a restaurant a few years back and one of the dishes we ordered was made with wine vinegar, which I am allergic to, so we asked the waiter to skip it, and he said sure, no problem, that’s fine. So my food gets to the table, and I start eating and then my throat closes and I can’t breathe and then I start coughing and throwing up right there in the middle of the restaurant and it was very fortunate that I was with my family and they knew what was happening to me. I had to be rushed to the hospital, and admitted, and I came damn near close to having my throat cut open so I could breathe through a whole on my neck. Because they put wine vinegar in my food when I explicitly told them not to, because they were assholes, and I could have died. They probably didn’t mean to hurt me but they did. I missed class, and work, and, again, I COULD HAVE DIED.
i have cyclic vomiting syndrome and can’t tolerate dairy or red meat. violating my dietary restrictions triggers an acute episode, and i have to be hospitalized and given iv saline, ativan, and anti-emetics to stop the (extremely painful and incapacitating) vomiting. if somebody put regular milk instead of soy milk in my latte and i didn’t notice the taste immediately, i could wind up in the er and then spend several days in bed recovering, eating nothing but saltines and dry toast and clear liquids until my body was able to tolerate food again, unable to work or go out or do anything besides rest. whenever i go to starbucks, i WATCH them make my drink. cvs episodes are horrible and i hate them, and i can prevent them if i do everything right, but that means my damn barista has to cooperate. if somebody decided i was a stuck up white girl and gave me whole milk instead of soy they could put me in the hospital and cost me days of income. give ppl the food they fuckin order. it’s not that hard.
Reblogging because it’s so important. I’m “lucky” I don’t have any food allergies or intolerence, but it makes me mad when people take them not seriously, think you are picky or just following a “white girl diet fad”.
90% of people don’t take my cats and dog allergies seriously when I tell them I’m allergic and wondering if a cat or a dog is present at X place. They think it’s just watery eyes. Nope. Well yeah, watery and itchy eyes, but I start wo wheeze and have trouble breathing. They don’t give epi-pen for those (anyway you have to go to the hospital after) just inhaler. It’s no miracle, specially if I didn’t take other meds before.
When people tell you about their allergies or restriction, trust them!
Reblogging for all the stories here because this is sooo important!Â
I have a severe allergy to gluten and relate to MANY of the stories above. My daughter has a severe allergy to milk fat, and I have had to hold her hair many times while she vomits on the side of the road because we couldn’t even make it home from the “accidental” whole milk instead of skim.Â
I’m super lactose intolerant so accidental milk is always fun. Severe diarrhea, stomach cramps, bloating, and gas like you wouldn’t believe. Better than death you might say but, I have other medical conditions, so that diarrhea could lead to vomiting(it’s so bad the vomit comes out my mouth AND nose) and dehydration that in turn becomes low cortisol and adrenal crisis. A bitchy barista can land me in the hospital with an intramuscular shot and saline iv. Hun, it takes no time to listen and follow my order. It takes me at least 24 hours to get out of the hospital. Be nice.
I’m allergic to pork. Legit allergic. I can’t count how many times I’ve had to ask it off my food only to receive it with bacon or ham or something on it.
Please respect peoples food requests. It costs 0.00$ to not be a dick.
I actually have customers who say they’ll only eat at my restaurant when I’m there, because they know I require all policy to be followed, as in “I will kick you the fuck off your shift if you skimp,” if someone says the words “I have an allergy.” I developed our allergy policies, for that matter, because what we had in place before was “I guess you shouldn’t change your gloves … . ?” On my shifts your gloves get changed, that line gets wiped down with a new cloth, paper under EVERY ITEM for the person with the allergy, bag their food separately to prevent contact. If there’s a risk of cross-contamination with an allergen, like tomatoes in the guac because stuff spills when you’re moving as fast as we do, I’ll open a new bag of food. I learned the ingredients in every item we serve so I could advise people on hidden allergens (e.g., there’s a small amount of wheat in our beef as a thickener; we fry with safflower oil). We have a grease pencil to mark special builds and I use it liberally on allergy orders. If all of this sounds like overkill, you’ve never watched a child suffer from anaphylaxis. I don’t play around.
Like, I bitch about my job a lot, but food allergies and special needs are not something I will ever bitch about. Even if you’re a complete asshole I won’t risk contaminating your food. (Although people with allergies seem to be way nicer than the general population, I gotta say.) Don’t do it. If someone’s a petty asshole to you, give them too much ice in their drink. Don’t play with their health.
DO NOT FUCKING SCROLL PAST THIS P L E A S E
Reblogging this again because it is important. Doing the right thing has no cost but doing the wrong thing can cost a person’s life. Don’t be a dick, give the person what they ordered
Reblogging always. I especially hate that things that are legitimate concerns for people, EVEN LIFE AND DEATH SERIOUS, are taken as some kind of “fad” or “trend.” The benefit of a something becoming a trend is that it becomes more readily accessible.
The downside is when you actually need it, people assume it just for the trend.
Please don’t be this person. I beg you. Don’t sink to that level. Please.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD P L E A S E DON’T BE THIS PERSON.
I used to have a milk and eggs allergy as a child (as a baby to about kindergarten age). Both resulted in my having breathing issues and fainting. My parents had to always be watching what the hell went near me so that I wouldn’t have to go to the hospital because they weren’t sure what would happen when I fainted.
I don’t think you would want to be the one responsible for a toddler being sent to the ER, because a) you’d probably feel bad and b) the parents might sue.
Luckily I’ve grown out of it. But as a white bitch I don’t want to know what could’ve happened if I hadn’t grown out of them and had a negligent server at at restaurant…
Don’t question people when they order. It’ll save everybody the energy.
You know what’s funny?
A lawsuit and being charged with attempted murder.
Don’t fuck with peoples orders
Why go out of your way to interfere with someone’s order like that? It honestly sounds like jealousy and bitterness. It doesn’t matter if you think someone is skinny or they’re just taking part in another diet fad and they won’t notice, YOUR ONLY JOB IS TO SERVE THEM WHAT THEY ORDERED!
IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS WHAT THEY CONSUME! DON’T BE A NASTY CUNT BECAUSE YOU HAVE YOUR OWN ISSUES!
You have no idea what your customer’s health is like, so grow up and just serve what you’re asked to serve. You aren’t paid to give diet advice to the customer, you are not paid to send them to the hospital.
Please reblog this, it’s important
Honestly if you pull this kinda shit and the person you almost killed sues your fucking ass, I will have no sympathy.
These kinds of people deserve to have their shit ruined to set a goddamn example.
@sailornightfury
It wasn’t an IHOP, it was a non-chain restauraunt.

The family sued, that’s the last I heard about the story, and I hope someone, somewhere, feels very, very bad about this.
@siryouarebeingmocked
We do not need your kinda crap rn-
Giving someone an update on something they bought up? How…horrible?
Uuuugghgghh, when my brother was little, he had horrible reactions to wheat and dairy. Stomach cramps, puking, headaches, just sitting terribly still and crying for hours from the littlest bit of the stuff. I HATE the gluten-free diet trend because suddenly all the menus everywhere had “gluten-free” options because it was TRENDY. Which seemed great, because “hey, look! You can eat hamburgers here. You don’t have to order the same potato meal at every restaurant we go to!” Except…. “Gluten-free” as a trendy diet can skate by with a little cross-contamination. A couple mixed crumbs? A .5% mix in the filler of a sauce? Caramel coloring? Totally negligable. …Unless you have a gluten sensitivity, in which case that could set your intestines the fuck off. “Gluten free”, my ass. You ever promise up and down to a tired-eyed six year old that you made POSITIVE his dinner was safe to eat, just to watch him tear up and start vomiting in his seat a few minutes later? Nothing feels worse than seeing a damn kid learn to be so suspicious of FOOD.
here’s my take on this issue, feel free to argue if you’re gonna be polite, feel free to die if you’re not gonna be polite
what most people think of when they hear the word “tea”:
what my dumb trans ass automatically thinks of instead:
Positive Work Vibes
Hey! So yesterday i was on the register and i have these two people come up. I’ve definitely rung them up before and so i greated them the way i usually do. One of them went “Hello my good sir!” and i was taken aback so i said “You are literally the first person to ever say that. you don’t know how much it means” and i laughed. They were such lovely people and i complemented on of their shirts and they went “thanks it’s his!” and pointed to whom i assume was their boyfriend. i was over the moon, I love when i get openly LGBT customers because it’s a reminder i’m not alone.
Binding Problems
I almost didn’t go to work a few days ago cause i couldn’t find my binder. luckily i found my old one but like, tbh i’d rather be fired than go out with no binder on.
please,,,,,,,, tell me,,,,,,,,,, i’m not the only one who does this,,,,,,,,,
we can do colors on tumblr now I need to capitalize on this
ehem*
Bitch
Transphobia
I’m sick of being fetishized that’s not being an ally. i hate the little parts like, being called cute or having to read shit like “Cute Trans Boy Things! When their binders peak out from their clothes!” like fuck off. being told my vagina and shit is a “dude-terus” or that my breasts are just pecks.
i’m sick of my tags being filled with sexualized “trans bois” “boy pussies” posted by girls who checked off an achievement by being with a “boy girl”. which is obviously close enough to being with an actual girl for them.
i’m sick of all the faux ally’s pretending they aren’t transphobic then whipping around and calling me an it cause they “don’t know what to call it. a tranny?” then cackle.
i don’t know if i’m making sense. i’m exhausted and am scrolling through tumblr. it’s time to stop either way.
Hey fellas, I don’t wanna brag but uh, heh, I have no money
Dude i fucking love South Park so much. i’m fucking cackling.
It wouldn’t be a trans comic without a strip about bathrooms, so we may as well get it out of the way first.
Oh by the way, we’re digital now! Lemme know if you’re into it! :0
internalized transphobia
i make friends with gay cis men over video games and i feel guilty like i’m lying to them by not telling them i’m trans. it’s not like i’m gonna date them or anything but i feel like i’m lying. i try to relate and it feels so forced cause i never had the shit they did as teens. i’ve never been able to fuck someone cause i don’t have a proper dick and that’s what they got.
i don’t know. i feel like i’m lying to them and i want to tell them but i feel like they’ll treat me differently.
one of the friends from the group is straight and i always flirt with him cause i know we won’t date and he does it back cause it’s funny. and yesterday he said he’d date me if i was girl and i was like “i could never be a girl i’d kill myself.” and he was like “damn well if you find a willing girl i’d be down for a 3 some lmao” and it’s all joking but i feel like i’m leading him on.
i don’t know does anyone want to weigh in?
A middle school in Achille, Oklahoma is closed following violent threats by parents on social media against Maddie, a 12-year-old transgender student who identifies as female and used the girls’ bathroom.
Maddie had been using the staff bathroom at her old school but used the girls’ bathroom at the new school because she wasn’t sure where the staff bathroom was. She was then accused of peeping under a bathroom stall. Her mother said it was probably because she “leans very far forward to use the bathroom.”
Then the threats began on a private parents’ Facebook group for the school. The parents called Maddie “it” and “thing”, suggested that her genitalia be mutilated to make her female (“a good sharp knife will do the job real quick”). One said it was “hunting season on them kind” and said there was “no bag limit.”
Maddie’s mother Brandy Rose said she fears for her life: “These are adults making threats– I don’t understand it. She’s an awesome kid. To see any fear in her, I can’t explain how bad that hurts me for them to hurt her.”
KXII reports: “The sheriff said the mother filed a protective order against one parent but no other arrests have been made, however several agencies including the FBI are stepping in to see if any comments constitute a hate crime.”
See the screenshots:
Sorry to say this but if we have to think about whether or not threatening to cut a 12 year old child is a hate crime means there is no hope for us. What has this nation become when it’s citizens feel they have a right to threaten minorities with no fear of repercussion. The only ringing heard now is the death knell of freedom..
Savages…
https://hatetrackers.online/hate-crime-conspiracy Here are the names, what they said, and some miscellaneous information about them
I don’t normally condone doxxing, but when it comes to this kind of behavior towards A MIDDLE SCHOOL KID by GROWN FUCKING ADULTS, it’s time to make some motherfuckers lose their jobs.
Hate Trackers has info on everyone who posted in that thread.
Frankly, if you’re going to actively plot and advocate for violence against a child, fuck you and fuck your livelihood.
make these peoples’ lives hell.
I feel like saying trans people need dysphoria to be trans, is kinda like saying trans people aren’t allowed to be comfortable in their bodies.
Also i feel like it’s kinda wrong for anyone to tell someone else “how to be trans” like there’s some kinda application form.
you’re allowed to be comfortable and not hate your body. there’s many kinds of dysphoria, social and physical are just two. if you have some form then you’re trans.
people who are uncomfortable being called “she her” and prefer “he him” but don’t want to physically transition next are trans. boom. you are welcome to the community.
people think that truscum people are gatekeeping their own people but it’s really just not wanting non dysphoric “trans people” taking hormones and such and lying about having dysphoria to get things they don’t need.
be you and if you don’t agree with me then that’s fine. agree to disagree. i’m not enforcing any rules i’m just simply stating an opinion.
hey truscum did you know that when you tell a trans person that they are cis you are in fact misgendering themÂ
how hard is this to understand. stop being horrible.
people be out here thinking i straight up tell people their cis? i just believe you need dysphoria to be trans but i still respect people gender identity and pronouns.
