Ferruginous Hawk (Buteo regalis) juvenile. Family Accipitridae, order Accipitriformes.

My first one! A juvenile dark morph. I was driving down a dirt road leaving the salt plains and saw a dark hawk sitting up on the pole. I had figured it was just an odd looking Red-tailed Hawk, but to my pleasant surprise it was a Ferruginous!

Salt Plains NWR, Oklahoma, USA. April 2026.

Hostile work environment claims are not limited to extreme situations. Repeated harassment, discrimination, retaliation, or exclusion tied to protected characteristics may violate California employment law. Employees in Mid-Wilshire and Los Angeles often have broader rights under FEHA than they realize, including longer filing windows and uncapped damages.

Disability discrimination is not always obvious. It can look like being quietly sidelined after asking for help, denied accommodations without explanation, or sudden write-ups.

California law offers strong protections—but only if you know how to use them.

hey, if you're in California and you just lost your job in a way that felt wrong — this is for you ✍️

california is technically "at-will," which sounds scary. it means your employer can fire you without giving a reason. but it does NOT mean they can fire you for an illegal reason.

what's illegal?

🔹 firing you because of your race, religion, gender, pregnancy, disability, age (40+), or sexual orientation 🔹 letting you go after you reported unpaid wages or missed rest breaks 🔹 terminating you after you took CFRA or FMLA medical/family leave 🔹 firing you for filing a workers' comp claim 🔹 letting you go because you refused to do something illegal 🔹 retaliating against you for reporting your employer's illegal conduct

these are all protected under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and the California Labor Code.

here's the most important thing: write everything down. right now. dates, conversations, who said what, performance reviews, any complaints you made, witnesses. this record becomes your most powerful tool.

and don't wait — filing deadlines are real, and missing them can eliminate your options entirely.

Just because there’s no headline lawsuit doesn’t mean discrimination isn’t happening.

California law protects employees from race and national origin discrimination—even in subtle forms like exclusion, bias, or retaliation. Many cases are never public, but that doesn’t make them any less real.

Document everything. Know your rights.

Disability discrimination in creative agencies often hides behind workplace culture and “performance” expectations. If you are being excluded, denied accommodations, or retaliated against, you may have legal rights under California law. Documentation and early action are critical.
