There's an open pit in the middle of our office plan that drops down into a bunch of very sharp spikes that kill you instantly. This is bad. People keep falling in there and dying. Someone put a sign up, the other day, all bright yellow so you can't miss it, that says "Beware!!! Spikes!!!"
The office immediately split into two factions over it. One says that if anyone falls in the spike pit it's their own fault for being so stupid and not watching where they're walking, so we should remove the sign. The other says that the sign is an insult, there shouldn't be a spike pit in our office at all, and having the sign up like that is just normalising the existence of the spike pit, so we should remove the sign.
We ended up removing the sign. Probably for the better. Still... for a while there it looked like it might have worked...

It's all fun and games and laughing at BookTok until you can't get on AO3 anymore, as someone who likes both romance and fanfic.

This is the second listeria outbreak in under a year in my area, and this one's even more local and closer to home.
But I'm SURE it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the loosening of regulations on the food industry or anything that occurred during the Oompa Loompa's last reign.
SURELY it has nothing to do with that.
But to everyone who voted for "cheaper groceries," this is what happens. Faster production and fewer safety regulations might end up shaving a few dollars off of your grocery bill, but food regulations go in the toilet. Worker safety becomes an afterthought at best.
Average Joe who cut his hand in a processing plant might not report it to his boss because he needs this job to put food on his own family's table, and he alone might end up contaminating the food on the tables of thousands of other families because inspections have become so much more lax.
Companies under pressure to churn out higher production can and will ignore safety and cleanliness in favor of profit. Workers in deplorable working conditions will still do what they can to keep their livelihood when it's difficult to impossible to find another job that pays the bills, even if it means disregarding safety procedures.
But by all means, please enjoy your potentially cheaper groceries at the expense of someone's dead grandparents. Because we're only going to see more of this going forward in an administration that values production over human lives.

“It’s ya boy Guzma” is probably the smoothest translation of ore-sama I’ve ever seen (makes eyes at Hetalia and TTGL) but it’s also unfortunately hilarious wwwww

when travis mcelroy said “what if you could just cut out the bullshit and do good recklessly?” and when marc evan jackson said “now go do something good” and when chidi anagonye said “i argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people” and when brennan lee mulligan said “you, mortal beings, are the instrument by which the universe cares. if you choose to care, then the universe cares. and if you don’t, then it doesn’t”

Fun fact: in the 80′s the Dutch Unemployed Union held ‘fridge raids’ to protest against poverty.
They’d find out when a politician of big boss who upheld poverty and starvation wages was speaking at some public even, then they’d carefully break into his house with a LOT of people and they would eat EVERY piece of food in his house and leave the empty dished behind without taking anything else.

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."
It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
