This may be madness, but: Aaron & Neil (not Aaron/Neil unless you super want to); 24 & 63

Hello darling, this is INTRIGUING and I’m HERE for it!!! <3333 (it didn’t end up being shippy tho lol)

24. Soulmate AU + 63. Everybody Knows/Mistaken for Couple

K so, the setting is an office-type au-ish-thing--

Neil works as the company’s accountant, he’s fidgety, and pissy, and weird, and Aaron can’t fucking stand him

Aaron works in regular old sales, he’s surprisingly good at his job but he likes purposefully spilling coffee all over his record sheets so that Neil has to get the copies online instead of physically like he likes better and Neil HATES him

They both have a kind of rivalry, with Neil trying every fucking step to audit Aaron and catch him in something--

One time he watched Aaron smack the vending machine and nab a chip bag without paying and he legitimately tried to get Aaron fired over it

(it didn’t work, but it did mean war)

Another detail you should know: everyone in the office KNEW they were soulmates

The thing about soulmates in this universe is that you both get matching marks, but, if one person messes with the mark (i.e covers it up/ adds to it) those changes also appear on your soulmates arm

Cathy from HR saw it first--Neil usually only wears the company policy dress shirts (never ironed) but one day Aaron “accidentally” spilled chai on him and he had to change, exposing his right shoulder where there was the distinct black-and-white outline of a snake eating it’s own tail. There was also a key in the middle of the circle.

Don from finance saw Aaron’s later--the same design on the same shoulder

The whole office was in a tizzy over it, Neil and Aaron were none-the-wiser as their feud came to a head when Neil audited Aaron for the fourth time that week and Aaron threw the printer out the window so Neil couldn’t get physical copies of anything until they got a replacement one

However--the straw that broke the proverbial camel’s back was when Aurelia saw Aaron and Neil kissing in his office

She immediately ran to some of the others, spilling the news

“You’re sure it was Aaron?” Ken said--he was the only one still skeptical about the apparent office romance.

“I’m sure!! Though.... he was wearing a leather jacket for some reason...”

“A leather jacket?”

“Hey--Don,” Aaron interrupts them suddenly, making all of them jump and curse. He gives them all a weird look. “I was just wondering how those reports were coming along....”

“Right--yeah--uh I’ll go grab them--” and Don scurries away

“Where’s your jacket?” Aurelia asks, because she can’t help herself.

“Neil dumped kim chi all over it, I threw it away”

“Really? I’m sorry, it looked expensive”

“It was a blazer, I’ll get a new one at target” and then he walks away

They all share looks--“blazer--????”

But then they have to get back to work and the chatter dies off for the day

The mystery of the jacket is only solved when they discover Neil is cheating on Aaron--not only just cheating, but cheating with his twin brother!!

“We have to tell him” Don says somberly

“No! It’s not our business!” Cathy says frantically

“I think it’d be funny” Jessica says--she’s promptly banned from gossip circles

Eventually they decide one of them needs to speak up, so Don slides into Neil’s office one night, stomach rolling, and tells him “cheating isn’t cool man”

Neil blinks “uh--yeah?”

Don watches him, clears his throat, and watches him some more

“Can I get you something?” Neil asks, brow furrowing a bit

and then Don breaks and spills the whole situation. Neil’s eyebrows go into his hair line and he kicks Don out with a succinct “I would rather eat my own legs than go on a date with Aaron Minyard”

because Neil is an asshole--and so is Aaron for that matter--no one in the building ever finds out what the fuck is going on with that

(the secret is that Andrew and Aaron had to be completely identical when they were younger so they matched up their tattoos. If you look closely, the snake on Neil and Andrew’s shoulder is really fucking shitty cuz it was done by a 9 y/o with a stolen tattoo gun. Aaron and Katelyn’s keys are also shitty tattooed)

<3333 !!!!

Send me some prompts + some characters or a ship and I’ll tell ya how I’d mash em

#lol idk what this is XDD #aftg #all for the game #fic #luci writes

A clear-eyed warning about the increasingly destructive influence of America?s ?shame industrial complex? in the age of social media and hyperpartisan politics?from the New York Times bestselling author of Weapons of Math DestructionShame is a powerful and sometimes useful tool: When we publicly shame corrupt politicians, abusive celebrities, or predatory corporations, we reinforce values of fairness and justice. But as Cathy O?Neil argues in this revelatory book, shaming has taken a new and dangerous turn. It is increasingly being weaponized?used as a way to shift responsibility for social problems from institutions to individuals. Shaming children for not being able to afford school lunches or adults for not being able to find work lets us off the hook as a society. After all, why pay higher taxes to fund programs for people who are fundamentally unworthy?O?Neil explores the machinery behind all this shame, showing how governments, corporations, and the healthcare system capitalize

do you have any book recommendations about geography/ecology?

hello. hmm, sure. thanks for trusting me enough to ask; don’t trust me too much, though. i'm always learning and criticizing my past/previous perspectives, but there are still some "classic" books that i'd recommend. something i say often, though: i actually spend much more time reading essays and journal articles, rather than full-length books (especially since so much of the best decolonial viewpoints, Indigenous and non-Western perspectives, and newer/fresher geographical thought and "critical geography" takes are being actively revised/discussed in these newer forums without having to appease popular or profit-oriented press/publishing companies).

the subjects that i read about: human relationships with other-than-human creatures; extinction; environmental history of empires, imperialism, colonization; traditional ecological knowledge; resistance, fugitivity, and carceral geography; eerie, weird, and uncanny ecology; regional geography, specific microhabitats, endemic species; Anthropocene, Capitalocene, Plantationocene; ruins, ruination, haunting, trauma, and emotional geography; reptiles/amphibians; temperate rainforest and deserts; Pleistocene fauna and Paleolithic/ancient anthropogenic environmental change; islands, the sea, Oceanic worldviews, archipelagic thinking, solidarity across islands/regions; frontiers, borderlands, hinterlands, sacrifice zones, wastelanding, social abandonment, and extraction zones; Indigenous geography/ontology; decolonization

generally, i don't distinguish much of a difference between the subjects of geography/ecology -- or human and other-than-human environments -- since lifeforms and places and (cosmo)politics are all so entangled. anyway, here are some books involving a bit more geography and human ecology (the last time i was asked for recommendations, i focused a bit more on ecology and other-than-human environments, which i'll also re-post below these newer recs):

and then, i'll say again that essays and journal articles are often a great source for some of my favorite authors (though of course none of them are perfect; they can be problematique in their own ways): Lizabeth Paravisini-Gebert; Elizabeth DeLoughrey; Paulo Tavares; Anna Boswell; Achille Mbembe; Hugo Reinert; Tim Edensor; Anna Tsing; Frantz Fanon; Robin Wall Kimmerer; Kyle Whyte; Kathryn Yusoff; Iyko Day; Audra Simpson; Ann Laura Stoler; Pedro Neves Marques

so here are the books i've previously recommended:

hope some of these are interesting.

This is really important. We need to start by basically having a Data Science/ML Union that enforces ethical standards on membership and will cut off businesses that hire non-Union or force ethics violations. We also need to have federal regulators who can enforce these ethics. Behaving unethically with big data should ruin your career and put you in legal trouble, and pushing your people to do so should result in huge fines and not being able to hire new people.

182) Cathy O’Neil “Broń matematycznej zagłady. Jak algorytmy zwiększają nierówności i zagrażają demokracji” - równe szanse na rynku, status społeczny i materialny jednostki skorelowany ściśle z nakładem pracy, czy też kolokwialne „chcącemu nie dzieje się krzywda” – czy znacie mity neoliberalizmu, którymi również w Polsce od prawie 30 lat, karmią nas elity? A co, gdyby udowodnić, że ponad naszymi głowami podlegamy selekcji, pozycjonowaniu i na swe życie mamy coraz bardziej ograniczony wpływ? Jako, że statystyczny obywatel ma tendencje do utrzymywania iluzji niezależności pozycja Cathy 0’Neil może wywołać u wielu czytelników dysonans poznawczy. Byłoby to jednak dobrą reakcją, ponieważ potencjalnie zmusiłoby do refleksji: czy tak skonstruowany system ekonomicznej zależności naprawdę ma nam służyć? Wydana w 2017 roku książka wydaje się być jedną z najaktualniejszych jak i najobszerniejszych publikacji poświęconych algorytmom Big Data. Autorka, z zawodu matematyczka, wykładająca w Barnard College, nie kryje swego krytycznego stosunku wobec coraz szerszego zastosowania omawianych systemów analitycznych w procesie regulowania skomplikowanych interakcji społecznych. Dla podkreślenia ich destrukcyjnej roli tytułuje je „bronią matematycznej zagłady” (skrót: beemzet). Warto, aby książka O’Neil była pierwszym etapem do poszerzonej dyskusji o zastosowaniu algorytmów. Beemzety bowiem chociaż powierzchownie niedostrzegalne coraz częściej cieszą się popularnością w sferze zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi jak i ogólnie przenikają nasze życie codzienne. Z pozycji nacjonalistycznych część tez postawionych przez autorkę może być uważanych za co najmniej kontrowersyjne, aczkolwiek ciężko obecnie powoływać się na osobę o większym autorytecie, która tak dogłębnie przedstawiła negatywny wpływ beemzetów. Cathy 0’Neil w przeszłości zatrudniona była w jednym z amerykańskich funduszy hedgingowych i każdego dnia poznawała siłę oddziaływania algorytmów. Jak udowadnia autorka na łamach swej ponad 200-stronicowej publikacji powszechne zastosowanie technologii Big Data przyniosło efekt odwrotny od zamierzonego. Potencjał algorytmów, który z powodzeniem mógłby służyć podniesieniu jakości życia wielu społeczeństw, w rzeczywistości przyczynia się do wykluczenia, pauperyzacji, spycha na margines osoby długotrwale bezrobotne. Analiza – często błędnych lub niepełnych – baz danych może być kluczowa nie tylko w momencie udzielenia pożyczki gotówkowej, ale także często decyduje o zatrudnieniu w danej firmie. Może też być wykorzystana przez pośredników finansowych do udzielenia kredytu w para-banku, tym samym wpychając klienta w spiralę zadłużenia. Metody matematyczne decydują równie często o selekcji kandydatów na studia, gdzie liczy się punktacja podnoszącą prestiż uczelni, a nie unikatowe predyspozycje ucznia. Wreszcie na podstawie treści udostępnianych przez użytkowników media społecznościowe mogą sugestywnie podsuwać określone artykuły do wyświetlenia i wpływać na wybory polityczne obywateli. Dlaczego więc mimo wielu negatywnych aspektów technologia Big Data cieszy się rosnącą popularnością? W świecie, w którym liczy się bowiem wymierność gwarantuje ona często efektywność, optymalizację środków i realizację celu nawet mimo destrukcyjnego wpływu na życie społeczne. Na szczególną uwagę w moim mniemaniu zasługuje omówienie technologii Big Data w modelu zarządzania personelem w sektorze usług, przede wszystkim w barach szybkiej obsługi i w sieciach kawiarń. W Stanach Zjednoczonych tradycyjnie najgorętszymi entuzjastami implementacji algorytmów w zakresie organizacji pracy okazały się wielkie korporacje, takie jak Walmart, McDonalds czy też Starbucks. Jak można się domyśleć w tych przypadkach, Big Data została wykorzystana w celu maksymalizacji zysku akcjonariuszy stopniowo zamieniając się w tytułową „Broń Matematycznej Zagłady”. Najdramatyczniejszą postać system ten przybrał w sieci kawiarń, gdzie normą w procesie świadczenia pracy stała się tzw. „zamytwieralność”. Menadżerowie zarządzający kawiarniami Starbucks układali grafik podległemu personelowi według wskazań algorytmu przetwarzającego szereg zmiennych związanych z dniem tygodnia, porą roku, prognozą pogody etc. Normą więc stała się praca od rana do południa, by następnie mieć kilka godzin wolnego i powrócić do kawiarni wieczorem, gdyż w deszczowy dzień algorytm przewidział wzmożony ruch w sieci Starbucks – stąd wywodzi się termin „zamytwieralność”. Jakby tego było mało grafik układany był często zaledwie kilka dni przed zmianą, co dla wielu osób oznaczało dezorganizację życia prywatnego. Beemzety w omawianym przypadku pozwoliły na skuteczną akumulacje zysków kosztem rosnącej stopy wyzysku pracowników najemnych. Czy termin „zamytwierność” brzmi dość egzotycznie? Być może wielu z nas pozna go z praktyki na polskim gruncie poprzez formę kontraktu zero godzin. Komisja kodyfikacja intensywnie pracuje według medialnych doniesień nad nowelizacją kodeksu pracy lub – uwzględniając pojawiające się gdzieniegdzie dementi – wytyczeniem ram do rozmów o jego zmianie. W omawianym przypadku kontraktu zerowego, niczym pracownicy Starbucks, pracobiorcy byliby w pełni dyspozycyjni w zależności od woli zatrudniającego. Pojawia się pytanie czy warunki tak elastycznego zatrudnienia będą zależne od zastosowania broni matematycznej zagłady na polskim rynku pracy? Mimo wielu przykładów, w których algorytmy okazały się wadliwym narzędziem w regulacji skomplikowanych relacji społecznych nadal często cieszą się bezkrytycznym zaufaniem ich twórców. Z założenia widzą je bowiem jako modele całkowicie obiektywne, pozbawione ludzkich uprzedzeń. Jest to jeden z wygodnych mitów, które chcą utrwalać firmy specjalizujące się w analizie danych niezbędnych m.in. do opracowywania strategii marketingowych czy też badania zdolności kredytowej przez instytucje finansowe. Tymczasem życie dostarczyło przykładów jak krucha jest to wiara, gdy wieloletni szef FED, Alan Greenspan w dobie szalejącego kryzysu finansowego oświadczył komisji, że nagrodzony Nagrodą Nobla algorytm związany z oceną modelu ryzyka finansowego okazał się jednak błędny… - R.eutt.

Starboard Home to air on Irish Television

Irish public broadcaster RTÉ1 will finally broadcast the live recording of the 2016 Starboard Home live show from Dublin.

The music documentary and live show first premiered at the Irish Film Institute.

Featuring the highly successful Starboard Home album and showcase gigs at the National Concert Hall, Dublin this documentary celebrates the formative bond between Dublin’s port, city and river through music, song and spoken word.

The film illustrates the songs, airs and words from Starboard Home in an impressionistic journey from the source of the River Liffey, deep into the heart of the docks. The music, which ranges from electronic minimalism to folk and rock, is performed by key artists in contemporary Irish music, including BellX1’s Paul Noonan (who curated and produced the album with Gary Sheehan of the NCH), John Sheahan, Lisa O Neil, Cathy Davey, Colm Mac Con Iomaire, Paul Cleary, Duke Special and Gemma Hayes. An aural and visual delight, capturing the often hidden mysteries, stories and histories of the city’s port.

The Starboard Home song cycle was commissioned by Dublin Port to celebrate 2016 centenary celebrations that led to Irish Independence.

The show will air on RTÉ1 on May 30, 2019 from 22.35 (IST )/ 23.25 (CET). The show will be available for a limited time on RTÉ Player.
