Also, "stay home if you don't want to be murdered by the government" is not something said by people who value freedom.

Just saw someone say that Rick Riordan writes where he thinks the money is and I couldn’t agree more.

The entirety of HoO was just him trying to figure out what would sell. He made Nico gay with a crush on Percy because it was one of the most popular Nico ships then. When he realized people didn’t like Jason, he killed him off in ToA hoping it would please his fans. When people pointed out his racist and misogynistic stereotypes he went out of his way to try and explain that he in fact was not racist or misogynistic by making Piper date a girl and writing an entire book about monster oppression. But when those failed horribly, he decided to go back to what was the most popular and that’s PJO. But he can’t just go back to PJO, so instead he’s making an entire side series about background characters that never existed and trying to have LGBTQ+ as the target audience because he knows they’ll buy anything even if the writing is shit.

It’s time to wake up and realize that Rick Riordan is not the “supportive woke uncle” so many PJO fans claim him to be. He’s just opportunistic and greedy. I’m not even going to get into how this applies even more so when it comes to his god awful show.

Edit: the title for this comic is “Puzzle Rat” this one’s a few days late due to having a lot of doctors appointments sorry it’s  just 9 pages, and about some rats… it’s more symbolic than anything really

The Real Context that Group of Queer Nico fans loves to forget...

Dated: June 26, 2013

The overturning of DOMA (Defence of Marriage Act) heralded an era of unprecedented support for queer people, a landmark in queer history.

Publication Date of House of Hades (Nico's debut as a queer character): October 8, 2013

Back in the day, many queer Percy Jackson fans quickly picked up on the fact that the decision was deeply rooted in opportunism. Riordan himself admitted he had never really planned on making Nico queer.

I’m reblogging this 7-year-old comic of mine because, not only is it somehow still circulating, it just passed 400,000 notes??? Thank you, several hundred thousand internet strangers, for keepin’ this ol’ goat girl goin’ so long

(Also hi, I’m still making fairy-tale-flavored lesbian romance comics and have a new one coming out very soon…)

According to fox entertainment this is who we should be afraid of. I didn't know who Francesca Hong was 10 minutes ago but thankfully now I'm aware of this monster and her monsterous policies

I kept forgetting my nighttime antidepressant so I set an alarm where the sound was a recording of me saying "HEY. TAKE YOUR FUCKING PILL" because I thought it would be funny. It was funny about three times, and then it started making me mad and I'd dismiss it right away to make it stop. So I handed my phone to my partner, who made another recording sweetly saying "Okay Shira, it's time to take your medication" and now I don't get mad anymore and I take my pill. The "compassion over punishment" camp has gotta get something wrong one of these days

i'm getting the sense some of you are not actually forklift certified.

THE PLOT THICKENS @averagejoey2000 explain yourself

[averagejoey2000]

I can't believe this is how I'm finding out that I got a scam forklift cert.

I took the cargo ops class at school but my teacher explained that it doesn't give a certification and I'd only be okay for ship's crane and the school forklifts. she said I could take an online exam and get my cert. I paid 60 bucks.

I'm googling and I'm seeing a lot of resources saying that the online programs cover the classroom part of the exam but not the in person practical aspect.

29 CFR 1910.178 (l)(2)(ii)

but I did the in person practical shit at school.

[averagejoey2000]

the back of the card even had fancy numbers on it. I couldn't have known that this isn't the one. this website sounded more official than certifyme.net, and there wasn't one with a .gov address.

[averagejoey2000]

so, I emailed OSHA, and they said that so long as I live and work in California, there's no such thing as forklift certification. I have to be told how to do it every time I get the job.

[averagejoey2000]

Update: I took a certification class in shipboard Material Handling Equipment at my federal job. *now* I'm forklift certified, but only on ships and piers and only for this company, but also rated to forklift explosives and hazardous materials. Also I'm a woman now.

Autism is a disability? Yes, 1000%, Zero doubts about it.

But you can’t tell me I’m not allowed to find it interesting, beneficial or beautiful in the right context.

You’re telling me I can have a friend who draws internal body systems for fun? You’re telling me people think about the childhood of Disney characters? SOMEONE SOME WHERE HAS A SPECIAL INTEREST IN DUCKS?!

Every day there are autistic people who have knowledge of topics I’ve never considered like a second language to them. That’s beautiful!!!!

Edited to add: Since a lot of people are reblogging this original post, I'm adding the updated version I did that incorporates the intersex circle...

I know intersex people are still getting excluded in a lot of LGBTQIA+ spaces (let alone wider society) and I think it's crucial to show this group is included in the statement that we all deserve equal rights.
