the way the manosphere people talk about mothers as if their one and only purpose is to give birth and be their husband’s personal slave and not have literally any say in how the children are raised (because women have actual toddler brains and are incapable of raising good children of course) is crazy because by this logic they should have no problem with two men getting married and adopting kids yet still they hate gays

carcar 39 for the prompt thing hehe

prompt 39 is “dressing room” and you wanted carcar and i cannot sit on a snippet in silence apparently. so here’s a few sentences of something that may expand slightly…

————

Oscar stands at the main cast dressing room. Headset with the mic piece turned upwards and a clipboard in his hand.

Carlos’s posture is loose and sure in the mirror. He really was an actor in every sense of the word, capable of switching the temperature of a room up or down depending on his desire to, or in search of a particular payoff. Lando had that quality too. And if the social media chatter was anything to go by, this was one of the most-hyped productions of Twelfth Night that London had seen in a while. (Not to mention the most potentially profitable.)

Didn’t make Sainz Junior any easier to work with, though.

“Carlos. Can I have a word?”

A few “oohs” and jeers roll forth from the cast.

Carlos barely spares Oscar a glance in the mirror before he turns back to his conversation with Lando.

“20 minutes. We know, cabrón. No need to worry.”

“It’s not that.”

“Is it so important it cannot wait until after critics night?”

“I need you to comply with what I’m about to tell you because it’s critics night.”

Carlos’s face is thunderous in the mirror. To his credit, the look dissipates as quickly as it came.

Because Carlos after all, was a performer. First and foremost.

Number of days in a row I've fucked up a day's worth of work on the monthly spend report.

Hi, how to get people to stop constantly watching you? I’m the only black person at my work place (idk if it’s a race thing or just strange behavior-) and there’s my co supervisor who I have spoken with about my coworker I work with how she lacks commcuaition with me. He agreeed but the next day he was all up in their face talking with her and I noticed they’re a clique and he’s friends with her. So he began to act different and when I’m carrying an overload of work he’d look at me and say: oh it’s because you have a lot of responsibilities and you’re all alone? You’ll be fine. You got this. Then he’d walk away. We work in partnership so she works with me but just walks away and talks to her friends.

He’s watching me more and not only that, the woman I work with and her friend watch me constantly but her friend ignores me when I say hi or try to speak with her causally. But I find her over listening when I speak to other coworkers or staring at me when I’m not looking and when I look at her she looks away.

It’s rude to stare and it’s disgusting behavior and I don’t know what to do since my co supervisor has been acting differently since I spoke up about how I’d like more communication. When I look at him he’s not smiling then he decides to.

He’s friendly and nice but I just feel like he’s faking it or not really into me as a worker - which is fine but I’m super uncomfortable being watched all the time.

Hi love. I'm so sorry you're going through this. I was uncomfortable and ashamed of these people's behavior from what you described above, so I can only imagine how distressing it is to work around and experience this dynamic on a daily basis. Personally, I would subtly point out their odd behavior without being too petty. For example, if I caught one of these colleagues staring, I would ask them "Are you good?" or "You look lost, do you need something?"

Hopefully, they will start to feel called out and embarrassed, so they learn to leave you alone, mind their own business, and be professional at their workplace. If any BIPOC women have any additional advice or insights, please share as we all should learn/do better when we can (speaking from a white woman's perspective here!).

Hope this helps xx

feeling immensely proud of myself that today marks exactly three years since I started my current job (+ one promotion a year ago) 🎊🎈

I know a lot of the employment market is completely arbitrary and ~ less than ideal ~ but what I’m proud of is that I worked so hard to get where I’m at and for learning so much and being really, really forking good at my job, too (which I am! 🫶🏻)

so like, this isn’t a post to celebrate corporate life or capitalism, it’s to celebrate all of the work I’ve done for me, and I’m just really proud of and happy for myself about that 💞💖

One of the women who used to work for my old company and who was let go in the first round of layoffs back in the fall is reinventing herself as a career counselor. For those of us who were laid off last month, in a few minutes, she's giving an online workshop on resilience in the job market, and she's doing so for free. That is so very sweet and generous of her.

Hello! Hope your day is going well.

I have a question about my resting face. I have the worse resting face and I’ve been told my coworkers and some family that I look pissed off or aggressive. So it makes them not want to talk to me.

In the words of my coworker: you look like you want to fight someone.

I am pleasant and called kind- so I’m definitely not angry or anything.

I used to smile ALL the time years ago, and unfortunately I was taken advantage of and harassed by strangers (mainly men) because of this.

Plus I was a people pleaser so I was a target and my smiling didn’t help. I had a terrible mask that made me smile all the time til it was hard not to, even if I wasn’t happy.

I’ve grown out of that (fortunately) but now I’m concerned about my face in its resting state.

I’m not sure what to do, but I don’t want to seem angry or intimidating to anyone.

But I’ve been traumatized by people before due to grabbing me and following me out of stores when I did come off welcoming (I didn’t even notice this was happening) and when I did, I would try and avoid them.

This stopped when I don’t smile as much. It definitely repels weirdos.

But I do want to be friendly and feminine with a kind smile :(, I feel stuck.

Thanks

Hi love! As you've said in your message, we're conditioned as women to appear passive and easy to appease – friendly, open, and receptive to others' needs at all times. Good for you for forgoing your people-pleasing tendencies to protect your peace.

Especially if you're conventionally attractive, it isn't uncommon for people to think you look mean or intimidating if you have a straight face/don't have a doting presence at all times. Consider it an implicit compliment of your beauty. However, if it is bothering you that people feel that you're cold or it is harming your professional growth in some capacity, try selectively smiling like when you're greeting someone or reacting to something positive they said. When you're actually excited about a project, a nice gesture, or something said in a conversation, feel free to be expressive about it.

Hope this helps xx

NEW MOTHER AND INFANT TRAPPED IN GAZA

Suad Ahmad @suad-ahmad is an engineer from Gaza. She graduated from university at the top of her class and was rapidly excelling in her career as an instructor, consultant, and team leader. Suad, her husband, and their family were overjoyed to find out she was pregnant. Sadly, this was only a week before occupation began its illegal scorched earth campaign against the people of Gaza. Suad's home and workplace were destroyed, and she and her husband's family were displaced from the north.

On the day she went into labor, Suad had to walk a great distance to the hospital. Upon arrival, she found that the hospital was operating at bare minimal capacity. There was not even a bed for her to use. Suad's baby was born with minimal medical support, and the ordeal was extremely difficult. The occupation then began bombing the vicinity of the hospital. Suad and her baby were in immense danger, with nowhere to turn.

Unfortunately, the situation has only gotten worse. Suad and her infant are now living in a tent in extreme heat. lOF attacks continue, putting their lives in immediate danger. The occupation's blockade on Rafah Crossing and the destruction of roads and infrastructure has led to increased, extreme food scarcity. Suad cannot find enough food to feed herself or her baby. She has not been able to recover from the difficult birth, and her baby is missing out on crucial nutrition needed for neonatal development. Once Rafah crossing reopens, Suad and her baby need to be able to evacuate to Egypt for their health and safety.

You can help make this possible by directly supporting them at the link below. Please, help give Suad and her baby a better chance at life. If you cannot give, please reblog this post and repost the link (https://gofund.me/ebaee2af) across all of your social media accounts.

Thank you

One of my special interests is the Microsoft Office Suite (mainly PowerPoint, Word and Publisher because math scare me), which would make me a valuable member of society if it were not for. Well. The other parts of the disorders.
