I’m listening to a legal lecture right now, where the speaker just reminded us that we should advise clients to terminate seasonal employees annually to prevent them from earning paid family leave, and I am again reminded that everything is horribly broken.
@h5e 🥰🥰🥰💖 This is the best. Congratulations!

Cannot reiterate this enough:
PLEASE don’t request refunds from Apple for any unused time on your Twitterrific or Tweetbot subscriptions.
It could literally bankrupt small shops like these.

The German word "Schwein" means "pig".
The word "Sau" means "sow".
Funny thing: You can use them to amplify adjectives!
schweinekalt = very cold
schweineheiß = very hot
saustark = very strong
saulecker = very tasty
saugut = very good
saucool = very cool
Enjoy our 🐷 language!
@thekimmy Sounds like you needed it. ☺️

@siege@octodon.social Awww. I love Oscar. It’s so dopey. I remember seeing it in the theater when I was a kid. 🥰

The fact that Isaac Asimov was a notorious assaulter and sexual harasser leaves me with this old question:
Can we divide the work from its author?
In this case, I can't.
I've read the comments from people saying that bringing attention to this is stupid 'woke' behavior and 'the new McCarthyism'. No, your childhood icon, the golden age of science fiction titan was a despicable human being. We have to remember that.

@anyas5 Thank you! I really try to keep my earrings coordinated! It’s a great excuse to buy more cheap earrings!

@h5e TU! Butchy Femme wasn’t at all something I had in mind when I came out, but it seems to be where I’m going!!
Also: jeans. Prior to starting HRT, I hadn’t owned a pair of jeans in 20+ years. Now they’re a near-constant!

I get that the GOP likes to pretend that MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech is a call for colorblindness (it's not), citing the "content of their character" line, but here's a little secret:
If you're the type of person who feels the need to cling to that line, free from context, then the "content of your character" is pretty apparent, and it's not looking good for you.
@PastaThief Oh! A photo of my pantry!

Any recommendations for films to watch on Shudder/Prime?
Particularly British/European folk horror or anything Lovecraftian.
The Void, The Ritual, Colour Out of Space, Wickerman, Witchfinder General, already on my list to watch again.
@Fawn@ohai.social this is generally true
@h5e That’s really wonderful to hear. I believe that work places should be safe spaces; I’m really happy that yours is for you. (I know mine was for me, and knowing that made all the difference in the world).
@h5e I’m sorry. That’s such a heavy costume to wear. 🏋️♀️
