What wrong with that @pakenn14 - Tumblr Blog

Learning disabilities in the workforce

Starting a new job search and I recently asked a friend for advice on whether to put “yes, I have a disability” on the disability declaration on job application because while having dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyspraxia are protected by the ADA, I am still worried about discrimination from a hiring manager and normally put no. The response I got was shockingly un-shocking. I was told by the friend, “I don’t view you as having a disability and if you decide to play the game then you will have to be content with being a diversity hire or hired to meet a quota.” Having had to fight with teachers about accommodations and friends not understanding why I had them, I’m tired of people’s attitudes. I’m not even mad, just disappointed to still be dealing with this in 2023.

I like how the only reason Harry is able to fight the imperious curse so easily is because it hits him and he’s like “Ah I feel calm and relaxed and happy…this is wrong.”

Vegans of tumblr, listen up. Harvesting agave in the quantities required so you dont have to eat honey is killing mexican long-nosed bats. They feed off the nectar and pollinate the plants. They need the agave. You want to help the environment? Go back to honey. Your liver and thyroid will thank you, as well. Agave is 90% fructose, which can cause a host of issues. Bye.

Beekeeper here! Just wanted to say that the fact that vegans won’t eat honey is very silly. Harvesting honey does not hurt bees. The invention of modern moveable-frame hives means we can remove a selected frame, extract the honey and return it without killing a single bee.

If we destroyed the colony to harvest honey there would be no bees for next year, and beekeepers are incredibly careful to keep their bees healthy and thriving. We take *excess* honey that they don’t need, and it stops the hive from becoming honey-bound, meaning that there’s so much honey the Queen has nowhere to lay eggs. And if the winter is harsher than expected and the remaining honey store runs low, we feed the bees plenty to make sure they survive. We also make sure that pests are controlled, bees are treated for disease, and the hive is weatherproof and in good repair, all things that wild bees struggle with.

Keeping bees in properly managed hives where they don’t starve or die from preventable disease is much better for them than being left to fend for themselves, and they’re far too important to be left alone.

All the fruits and vegetables that vegans *do* eat couldn’t exist without bees, and the hives which pollinate those crops also produce excess honey which the beekeepers can sell to help keep themselves and their hives going.

TLDR: BUY THE HONEY, HELP THE BEES.

Just watched a woman slather a whole jar of diced garlic on three huge salmon steaks and put on in each microwave at work

It’s going to smell hellacious later

It was so awful I had to work in another building for the rest if the day

Word is she left the fish and went back to her desk to pack up and quit

The stench was so awful they had to open all the doors which required bringing security from two other sites

Most of my department went home for the day

Holy SHIT

Being a tomato and a cucumber, the two main characters in VeggieTales are not actually vegetables…

I headcanon that tom riddle was in the same orphanage as stewart little

this is the funniest message i’ve ever gotten.

‘Yes Tom Riddle was indeed in a New York City orphanage for a while at the same time as Stuart Little. I’ve known this since 1945.’ - JK Rowling, December 2018.
