Two job-hunting resources that changed my life:

This cover letter post on askamanger.com. A job interview guide written by Alison Green, who runs askamanager.

Prosecutors argued that Mangione was carrying about $10,000 in cash and that his bag was a Faraday bag that blocks cellphone signals—all proof that he was a sophisticated criminal who should be held without bail. “‘I’d like to correct two things,’” Mangione said after the prosecutor finished speaking, according to CNN’s Danny Freeman, “‘I don’t know where any of that money came from—I’m not sure if it was planted. And also, that bag was waterproof, so I don’t know about criminal sophistication.’”

NYT has been discouraging reporters from sharing photos of luigi mangione - not due to concerns for his safety but to dissuade sympathy - and refuses to post his alleged manifesto in full. and today, they published an opinion by bret stephens about how brian thompson is the "real working class hero" of this story.

reddit deleted luigi's account, which was completely innocuous and consisted mostly of him giving out advice in health subreddits. they're also deleting any post that includes his alleged manifesto and banning users for sharing it.

luigi yelled that this was "an insult to the intelligence of the american people" while he was being dragged by police and news pundits are framing it as a deranged and violent outburst. news media are picking apart details of his life to paint him as a cold-blooded and mentally ill individual. even something as innocent as playing "among us" with friends is being framed as some insidious look into an assassin's disturbed psyche, ffs.

news media are also capitalizing on luigi's supposed "bizarre and impossible to understand" politics as an obvious way to paint him as a scary individual when the guy is... a centrist, at most. whose views are similar to those of your average college-educated white guy.

multiple news media also keep harping on about how luigi comes from a rich family. an obvious attempt to break the class solidarity that's been formed around this case by continuously trying to tell us "oh he's not like you guys" while ignoring the now pretty well-documented accounts of his multiple health struggles throughout the years.

and all this, and he hasn't even been found guilty of the crime he's allegedly committed. luigi is, as of right now, still innocent until proven guilty. and the news are trying to tear him apart because they obviously fear the symbol he's becoming for low and middle class america.

I’m working on that manwhore au fic I promise(and you guys are getting the entire poll like I said I would too) and I just know you guys are going to go absolutely FERAL over it once it’s finally done if the reactions to my previous two posts about it are anything to go by.

[worldwidedino]

New poll because I don’t have enough on my plate already

Here’s the end of 600 Strike from Poseidon’s pov for reference bloop (tw for torture, blood, and violence )

its fucking dember.

So many TV shows/movies depict the Epi Pen as a total solution for anaphylaxis...it's not. The Epi Pen gives you 30 minutes to get to a hospital where they can save your life. TV makes it look like you just have to use the Epi Pen and then the crisis is over. Do people without allergies or a loved one with allergies know that an Epi Pen only buys you time? The more I see this on TV the more I worry...

**Maybe you should reblog this because I'm actually worried that most people don't know.

Why is it that it’s my Epic stuff that titles come to me immediately? Out of all the fandoms that I’m in, it’s the Greek mythology musical with one of its first big AUs being “what if the main character fucked their way out of most their problems” the AU the one that gets the title juices flowing. I’m not complaining, I like not being almost done with a fic and having to sit there mulling over what to call it. That’s nice, that’s cool. But I think that all these names are coming to me for fics I got peer pressured into (sort of, I wouldn’t have brought up the Manwhore AU, if I wasn’t already sort of interested) is sort of funny.

[worldwidedino]

Do you wanna get tagged in stuff?

Yeah, I'm perfectly fine being tagged in stuff. Especially if it's anything related to anything I post here

I wanna see that stuff

Me seeing watching the notes of my Epic manwhore au posts:

[worldwidedino]

SO

We know how the backing for Dangerous heavily uses that riff from Thunder Bringer right? What if that’s the case because this was Zeus’ plan and Hermes is just acting as a messenger like in the Odyssey(I haven’t consumed all of it, if anyone has any recs of good places to find it and the illiad for free to suggest them to the class). If that’s the case and I’m just slow, yell at me(kindly)

Here’s more of that manwhore au fic from a few days ago, you filthy degenerates. Made that my most popular original post.

Suggestive warning

(Putting it under a cut just in case)

Also, this is my first time writing smut in a hot second, so deal with all the possible jank

[worldwidedino]

happy nineth anniversary to

[worldwidedino]

I have started.

Get Circe’d Poseidon 👀

[worldwidedino]

You all have been heard

I have 100% decided that I'm going to everything in the poll that ended last night in the order that they came in. And I guess if anyone has any more manwhore au ideas, make them known on this post, and maybe I'll do it. Maybe. I make no promises

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping
