#Conversations With Coworkers

Danny: Would you still love me if I was a worm?

Tim: No. I hate worms.

Danny: *offended gasp* So you wouldn't love me!?

Tim: I wouldn't even befriend you if you were a born worm. I would actively try to end your life before you lay eggs.

Danny: What if I was turned into a worm. I started as human but got cursed to be a worm.

Tim: I wouldn't love you romantically anymore, but I would try to break your cruse because I would still care for you.

Danny: Why wouldn't you love me romantically!?

Tim: Because that would be bestiality and I'm not about that.

Dick opening his front door: Timmy! This is a suprise. What's up?

Tim carrying a pillow and blanket: Can I spend the night? Danny kicked me out.

Dick: Oh no, did you have a fight?

Tim: Somewhat. I think I hurt his feelings.

Dick: What did you do?

Tim: Apparently, being honest is the wrong answer. Communication is not the key. Only lies. Always lies.

Dick: .....he asked you if you would love him if he was a worm didn't he?

Tim: ITS A WORM. WHO WOULD LOVE A WORM!?

Post-identity reveal galas that Bruce and Clark both attend become a game of cat and mouse as Bruce tries to subtly corner Clark to "accidentally" spill his champagne all over him so they have an excuse to go talk in private about superhero stuff (clark does not find this nearly as funny as bruce does)

Does Mr. Turner like rubbing his “son’s” successful career in Dinkleberg’s face??

He does! He brags about Timmy's success to every person within the neighborhood's vicinity. Mr. Turner loves how successful his son is! It really secures his reputation at the neighborhood HOA meetings they host at their house.

Timmy's worked very hard to gain more successes than failures. The more successful he is, the greater his family's social standing!! And the less he gets to overhear his dad ranting to the neighborhood about his failures.

today, my coworkers’ refusal to see me as a man put one of our patients in a position where they felt unsafe for the third time. i’ve been at this job for less than two months total. i don’t even care about getting misgendered anymore, i just want the people we’re supposed to be taking care of to feel comfortable around me.

i work at a hospital where we have to supervise our patients in a lot of vulnerable situations. there are safeguarding rules in place for certain things that male employees aren’t allowed to be present for when it comes to female patients. and yet, the people training me and telling me what to do have repeatedly put me in situations where i’ve been forced to do things that the female patients aren’t comfortable with me doing. and because they have repeatedly failed to teach me the rules for doing my job as a man, i have no way of knowing when i’m crossing one of those lines unless one of the patients tells me.

i’ve had to watch a victim of SA stare at me in abject terror as my coworkers asked her to strip naked with me still in the room. it took several minutes for her to even be able to speak enough to ask if i could leave the room. i found out after that she broke down crying the moment i walked out. my biggest regret is that i didn’t realize what was happening fast enough to leave before she ever had to say something, because she shouldn’t have had to say it. i never should’ve been allowed in the room in the first place, because that’s not something male employees are supposed to be present for. but i didn’t know that yet, because i was training and i thought surely, they wouldn’t train me to do something that directly violated their own safeguarding rules. that moment was the first time, and it’s haunted me ever since, but it wasn’t the last time. not only did it happen for the third time today — it almost happened for the fourth, and would have if someone hadn’t spoken up to say they should pick someone else. i care for these people so deeply, it’s why i took this job, and i’m so tired of hearing the fear in their voices when they have to ask me not to do something i never should’ve been told to do.

i’m very used to the personal discomfort of being misgendered. i willingly deal with it a lot at work as well as in other situations, not because i’m in the closet (at this point in my medical transition that would be impossible), but because it’s such a frequent occurrence with my coworkers that we would never get anything done if i took the time to correct them every time. but to see it get to the point of causing such visceral discomfort in other people? people i’m supposed to be taking care of and keeping safe? that’s something else entirely, and i’m fucking exhausted.

and after all of that, some of them still look at me like i have two heads when they tell me what to do and i say “i can’t do that, only female employees can” because i’m learning now. clearly i’m already seen as a man by our patients, but my coworkers would still rather put them in an unsafe situation than just train me as a man.

the company i work for decided that its switching from the german formal "You"(Sie) to the informal "you" (Du) in all of our websites so now we have to scour the entire database to change it and i quite frankly hate that, not just bc the unecessary extra work but especially bc its such a weird and unecessary change

i bet its bc everything here is getting englishfied (both literally and culturally it feels like, when my new boss talks its half in english bc every second german word is just replaced by an english one despite there being perfectly fine words for it in german too, its so annoying) and bc they want to sound more personal in hopes of getting more clients bc 'company is your fwiend uwu!!', i know this here is the amercian tm site so you wouldnt understand really but i do not want to be greeted with 'du' by companies, no, thats too personal, you dont know me and im not giving you my data, stay away!!

i guess thats how i would describe it .. the formal you is like a polite distance, like someone you dont know staying outside your personal space, but when its the informal 'you' it feels invasive unless i told you you can call me that, and that goes double for companies

maybe its a small thing that doesnt seem important but i cant stand it, im just a little part time worker doing data work so i got no say in it but the companies founder also announced hes giving his post to his kids some time ago so ...... since then theres been alot of changes and new projects that solely aim to imitate whats popular and whats done by other companies, despite ours being one that is, or used to be, intentionally different, like, that was the POINT, but i guess chasing trends is just too appealing for CEOs

i needed to express a sentiment in the creative stylings of @dunmeshiminimumwage

Nie Huaisang: Some of the things you say are so out of pocket.

Wei Wuxian: What do you mean?

Wei Wuxian: Doesn't everyone have the experience of having to fend against dogs for food in their childhood.

Nie Huaisang: See that's what I mean. No one else experienced that.

Wei Wuxian: That can't be true. There's no way I'm special.

"...So have you like... considered... *not* making another collider that could potentially break reality as we know it???"

"I mean I did but then i thought of what we'd be missing out on!"

"And what would that be??"

"More holes!"

[brynn-lear]

bro we gotta talk about ratio more like in GENERAL im so tired of all the haitham characterization they give him THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!!!

EXACTLY EXACTLY EXACTLY VEN!!!!

My man is just so. Augh. He's sassy yes that's true his voice lines are peak teasing but so much about him SCREAMS mentor. Tutor. Teacher. Professor. Patience. Driven to educate others.

He is the epitome of educate, not indoctrinate. Just take that quest with him, Ruan Mei, and Screwllum for example. Instead of preaching his ideals, he had the Herta Space Station come up with their own conclusions. Why idolize geniuses? Why do such things? Why not make your own hypothesis? He will not preach the truth in full, he'll let you learn to do so with his pushes, either gentle or full harsh force.

Love him. Like what his sticker in Penacony says: "doctor", not a PhD. He will always seek to "heal" others— but he's only giving you the tools, and you are the one healing yourself.

All in all, I find his ideals an absolutely noble pursuit.
