my 5 year plan is to get back my joy
Time to feed unprofessional managers what they’ve been dishing out for far too long.
Couple things here, for when you do this to people:
1. if you get the “answer my call” text, NEVER ANSWER THE CALL.
They are calling you because they want to have the conversation verbally, and be able to lie later about what they said or didn’t say. Force them to continue via text or email- force them to continue the conversation in writing or not at all.
2. “Lack of 2 weeks notice is unprofessional!” or the other version, “Not providing notice is illegal!”
No it isn’t. Neither is true.
And in the US, all states except Montana are “at will” employment (though you may hear an employer refer to it as “right to work” to make it sound better, it’s the same thing). Sure, at-will employment means they can fire you without cause, BUT! It also means that you are not legally required to give a reason for quitting, or to give notice of any kind.
Is it polite to give notice when you can? Sure. Do bosses expect it? Absolutely. But that does not make you legally required to provide it.
3. The only thing I would change in the worker’s interaction here was their response when initially asked to come in.
Employee: “Hey Mark. Sorry I’m unable to cover the shift tonight because I’m studying for my exam tomorrow.”
Don’t give a reason for your lack of availability. It may be tempting to. You may feel rude if you don’t.
DON’T DO IT.
You do not owe your boss any information about what you do off the clock, and any reason you give will only ever be used against you.
Boss: “Hey I need you to cover Jasper’s shift tonight.”
Employee: “Sorry, I’m not available.”
And leave it at that.
Do not elaborate.
Do not offer additional information.
When you boss asks you to elaborate, because they will, be polite but firm. “With respect, that’s personal. I’m sorry, but I’m unavailable to cover this shift/work late/come in early/etc.”
Be a broken record- you’re unavailable. That’s the only information they need to know, and it’s the only information they have a LEGAL RIGHT to know.
Please stop giving your bosses information they don’t need to know and don’t get to have, because they’re only going to try and use it to fuck you over later.
My job is HR. The above is completely accurate.
my 12 year brother is talking to his friend on the phone and trying to arrange plans to go over to his house this afternoon and was saying that our dad could drop him off maybe and i just heard him say "well i could maybe come over earlier but my dad is busy sharpening his scythe"
muffled voice coming from the phone speakers: how long till the scythe is sharp
oh! the space needle is a cute mascot base for seattle’s MLB team! i wonder how they managed to communicate that in a big foam costume?
oh

Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.
Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.
one laundry night they definitely start discussing how many Earth-named constellations are based on Greek myths, and then that definitely brings up the Odyssey (and how it relates to their current journey to Erid), and they spend the next week or so spinning tales and having Mary read the poem aloud and Rocky makes miniatures so Grace can act it out
im a fake fan of everything i like because i cant remember anything
here's where to find it on windows 10
Ugh, it was in mine. It's off now.
IT GETS WORSE
I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.
LOBOTOMIZE YOUR MACHINES
the water in hotel showers will do things to the texture of your hair you didn’t even know were possible
Rocky was going to say "fans of PHM" but Grace panicked! 🏳️🌈
I think the most logical reason for "why can Rocky say that word?" is that he bullied Grace until he got what he wanted (100% success rate)
Gifts for the Savior of Erid! (one of them, at least. Rocky got a lot of new jewelry, too) <3
being very fat means that sometimes you will encounter a chair that is so spindly, so fragile, so delicate. sometimes you will encounter a chair that is made of matchsticks and dreams. and has a seat the size of an ipad. a chair that resembles a newly born deer taking its first shaky steps. being very fat means that sometimes a thin person will offer this chair to you as a seat and not even think about it. meanwhile you, the fat person, if you listen very closely and with an open heart, can actually hear the chair whimpering and coughing like a sick victorian child. a thin person will offer this chair to you, a very fat person, and you have to look at them. and then the chair. and then your hips. and back at them. and be like. let's be real. can we please be real for a second. can we please use our spatial awareness right now. like it's okay we are allowed to use our spatial awareness when it comes to my ass. it's all good.

Anyway I'm thinking about a half-succubus who has been raised since infancy by a puritanical cult that thinks pleasure and non-reproductive sex are irredeemable sins, and they have raised the half-succubus (who has never been told about her true nature) as a deliberate example to their cult, just waiting for the day she is old enough to transgress sexually so that they can then brutally sacrifice her in a show of "purification."
Of course full blooded succubi cannot be born and never die, so are never children, but since our girl is half human she has to be raised. An unwitting lamb to slaughter, never understanding why her community treats her as someone dirty when she's only ever followed their rules perfectly. Of course she grows into a beautiful woman and the cult leaders are frustrated that she has not yet bent to her true "nature," and thus her very existence becomes a threat to their dogma. Because if sin isn't some inherent, demonic quality, then nothing makes THEM better than OTHERS, ie nothing makes the cult any more holy or worthy than non-cult members.
So of course they hatch a disgusting plot to "force" her into revealing her demonic sex-obsessed form, but don't worry!!!! She gets away and she's unscathed but confused and frightened and hurt because she STILL doesn't know what she is or why her community don't love her etc etc
NOW the fun part: fleeing the cult, she stumbles upon the cabin of a kind but isolated werewolf with major social anxiety - he fears the harm he could potentially do if he were to live around other people, bc he can't control the wolfy part of his nature. Of course he takes in this strange woman wandering the woods in the freezing winter, despite his fears for her safety. The succubus, now in the care of someone who is actually kind to her, starts experiencing a new hunger for the first time- bc of course, the reason her "nature" had never manifested before is simply that she'd never encountered anyone she was attracted to in that mean crusty cult.
The succubus doesn't totally understand this hunger, but she knows she can't act on it lest her new friend treat her like a sinful demon the same way the cult did. The werewolf is of course smitten with the first company he's had in years, but dares not act on it in case his wolf side takes over and it triggers a heat (or any story contrivance you desire, you get what I'm putting down here).
The POINT is that both these people are ferally sexually obsessed with the other but painfully unable to act on it. Oh, the yearning 😤
Succubus with the asshole cult: "Sex? Of course not! It is a sin! And pleasure is a gateway to hell!"
