It's come to my attention today that our latest batch of Queen of Wands (Rev.) crop tops are actually not reversed 🙃 and instead printed upright. If you received one like that recently please reach out to us. I'm contacting my shirt printer now to request a reprint.

It's been a long time coming but...the support system I have in my life helped me come to an important conclusion about myself.

I've been experimenting with being gender fluid. I really like the idea of being called she/her and he/him. I've also been socially experimenting with my name being changed to Ashe.

I love that the movie Anora was about marriage, but not in the way that you'd think. The technically legal marriage between Vanya and Anora was a sham, but there was another unofficial marriage between two people that was far less recognized by characters- but far more genuine. In a movie comically marred by miscommunication, the relationship between Igor and Anora was the only one in which any true communication was addressed or held. It was the only relationship between any two characters in the movie that harbored either true vulnerability or compassion. And it was the only relationship between two characters who'd actually seen and empathized with one another. Marriage is a commitment between two people to see and stay with the other party- to have another person stay to witness your life. Anora was ready to be witnessed by another human being, and Igor was the only person in the whole movie who ever saw her.

the way people on this site and tiktok and just the internet in general will tear genuinely well meaning advice to fucking shreds for having the audacity not to fit their specific circumstances is genuinely so fucking disheartening. someone can say they like to read a little bit to unwind after a hard day and it's helpful to get a tiny little reprieve from work stress before sleeping and some bitter asshole will say some shit like "ummmmm well i have ABSOLUTELY NO ENERGY to do ANYTHING BUT GO RIGHT TO SLEEP AFTER WORK so its really bold of YOU to assume people can do th-" okay well what do you want them to do about that

Love my job, love my company. I only work ACA, and it is so nice that our megaphone to thousands of employees is "The patients are the point. The people are the purpose!!! If we do our job with purpose, things get better for tens of thousands of people!!!!"

I don't share my employer for a few reasons, but it is very reassuring to know we are not unusual in ACA spaces. I highly encourage you to scrutinize your options as heavily as you see fit. Good options are made to withstand your investigation bc good options want you to have agency in your care and confidence in your health literacy! Marketplace options change state to state, year to year - - check what your options are this year!

question for the customer support email reps out there:

when a customer replies to something just to say “thank you” and that’s it, is that annoying? personally I find it mildly annoying because it re-opens the case I had already closed, but I’m curious what other people think

Hot take, but I actually don't mind customer service bots *as long as* I also have the option to talk with a person if I so choose

[kerorowhump]

there is something to be said about the narrative of keronians having to hide their presence on earth like besides the obvious plot reasons, because I like to imagine some of them (*cough cough* keroro) don't like it all that much and kinda wish they could just be out in the open without antibarrier

obviously they get seen a lot already but it is a bit sad I think that he can't just like, take off and go to the store, or even the hobby shop, like he needs fuyuki or natsumi to be there to buy it for him

you think he uses the internet a lot because it's his one way to communicate with other pekoponians without it being instantly obvious he's an alien? like he still talks about his interest but... it's with other humans (it was a housewife in that one gag I remember...)

and thinking about that comic where he got lost in town it's like, yeah he gets out of the house so little that he still doesn't know any of the streets and the whole town is new to him, isn't that kinda sad?

and with earth traditions too, like hinamatsuri or christmas or april fools (or setsubun), it seems he makes an effort to understand them and include himself in them (as in, participate and observe them), but he gets it wrong every time. and isn't that also... a bit alienating...

I am starting to think that being a tourist visiting Greek islands is completely unethical.

In a similar way as buying fast fashion is unethical.

This problem is very prevalent in the islands which is why I am specifically talking about them and not tourism throughout the country (though in specific areas that are tourism heavy the problem still stands).

Very coincidentally, along with Greece's economic protections of the working class collapsing, the new lucrative industry of tourism arose, after the economic crisis. With labour laws becoming more lax to "help the economy" we've seen the rise of seasonal work. What's that you might ask. Young adults with no working experience working in tourist heavy areas in service at restaurants and cafés and what not. Sometimes for 12 hours a day if not more, no benefits, sometimes they don't even provide you with housing, barely any days off. I've had cousins and friends who worked the summer season, it is hell and dehumanising. Especially with how many tourists there just are. Just earlier this month there was a story about how a sea side cafe bar owner had his waiters serve their patrons *in the sea*. THE WAITERS HAD TO WALK INTO THE SEA WITH THE DRINKS TO SERVE THE CUSTOMERS WHO WERE SWIMMING. "But tourists give good tips" AND THAT FIXES THINGS???? YOU THINK THIS MAKES THINGS BETTER??

But it's not just worker exploitation. It's how tourism becomes hostile to the locals themselves. How tourism is actively destroying the local environment. A friend of mine who comes from an island talks about how because of AirBnB locals are outpriced out of their rented homes. How students are kicked out of their apartments as soon as May enters because that's when thr tourism season starts. We gotta rent those apartments to our lovely tourists! How in islands even as big as Crete, every summer the locals have no access to water because it is all used up by hotels and tourists. All greek islands have limited access to drinking water and this is made worse through tourism. But you see you can't have the tourists not use water in abundance! How over the years I have seen my local beach become commercialised. How the public umbrellas crumbled and were replaced by privately owned by a sea side cafe bar umbrellas and sunbeds, making it so you have to pay to have access to that beach. How tourists have no beach etiquette, which ends up littering the area. How businesses' desire to get more tourist customers leaves to natural landmarks just altered beyond recognition, local fauna driven out.

Our government has over relied on tourism to rebuild its economy. When covid happened this showed how vulnerable an economy is if it relies on tourism alone. It feels like even our government treats us more like a tourist attraction than an actual nation. Obviously the issue is capitalism. Some might say it's unregulated capitalism. Whatever. The whole tourism industry was set up so that its vulnerable workers cannot even organise nor fight back. They are only contracted to work 3-4 months a year after all.

If you ever decide to visit Greece for vacation, I don't know, maybe think about all this.
