I literally do not understand job shortages in the US rn as someone freshly leaving college this year and being unable to find a job
Like I've been working a collective 5 years at retail jobs, internships, and even as a full time resident advisor while in college, but every entry level job (think office assistant, receptionist) that requires these skills says I'm not quite at that level. While every retail/fast food/waitering job says I'm too experienced and or over qualified so they can't hire me. Like??? Hello???
Like I would love to work honestly, I mean ffs I have loans to pay, and if I hear one more fucking Boomer talk about how us "Youths aint wanna work no more!!!" Im going to combust and spread my ashes along the steps of the nearest unemployment office
Art school is cursed because not only have I been in a class where a girl recommended Killing Stalking as a starter manga, said it was like Voltron, and then proceeded to turn in a Homestuck cover art for her mid term, but also I found out my friend had to voice Venti from Genshin Impact in her classmates Genshin Impact screenplay fanfiction.
Got told today at work that I'm not allowed to wear a pronouns pin because it's too "suggestive."
What am I "suggesting" to this hardware store??? That my pronouns are sexy???
Genuine question for other trans folks but: how,,, do people pass without hormones or surgeries? Especially plus size trans folks???
Maybe it's the sanitization of the trans people I see but it's so so so rare for me to be able to see someone like myself that passes for the gender they want to present and it's been really wearing. As someone who is plus size and carries his weight in his hips and chest its so difficult to understand how I'm supposed to fit societys version of passing without the use of hormone treatment or surgery, and as someone who doesn't want nor can afford both, I guess it would be nice to at least hear from some folks about their experiences or how they pass too.
Idk, this has just been on my mind a lot lately and I wanted to hear about any other experiences people have had.
I hope this whole brownface incident with S&B really wakes up the fans to just....how little effort the casting team put into representation and how many of us POC and plus size folks had said this for MONTHS ahead of release.
Like,,, I already knew we were in hot water when they announced Kit and Danielle for Jesper and Nina. Like no shame to them, they're just doing a job. But like, Jesper being a black character who is portrayed constantly as having darker skin,,, like he's not a light skinned black character! And that's really important to understand how shows like this may scream "we have rep" but then make the colorist decision to cast a lighter skinned POC.
And Nina? Nina was someone I looked up to in high school when I read the books and still identified as a girl. Being a plus size girl in high school, seeing someone like Nina made me feel so much better about my body, and gave me the confidence to be proud of how I looked. So...them casting Danielle....Yikes man. It was such a blow to me. Seeing a woman who's what, average size? Being our "plus size" rep? Seriously?
Idk, I just feel like the show already had problems from the start of its casting choices, so while this is a terrible incident and it should be addressed, I hope other fans take notice of how this has been an issue from the start of casting the show.
Listen if anyone ever asks me about my Art school experience in the future Ill simply tell them about the girl in my Comic book cover design class who not only recommended Killing Stalking as a starter manga to a new girl, but then proceeded to draw Homestuck as her midterm final cover.
God man not to sound like a boomer but I miss enjoying the content I consume without having to worry about if the creator is some sort of fuck all freak or if the content itself is "worthy" of consumption because it has 1 problematic thing in it
