Judgemental as fuck. But also sleepy. I have lots of ideas. I should be writing right now, but reading feels more productive.

Lots of people want to be type specialists. Are you one of those people?

If you were, what type would you want to choose?

...Is he comparing himself to Martin Luther King Junior? I mean, the man cheated on his wife and tried to be friends with charleton heston, but those were the most egregious thing he did. He didn't take blood money from anyone...

*Oct 2019 through Jan 2020

My boss whose entire family "had the sniffles" got a call from her kids' kindergarten class on 10/17/19. Her daughter had a full body rash. Within 3 or 4 days, her entire family and half of the office was projectile vomiting. I was wobbly and looked like I was dying

OooOOoh This looks super interesting

Even if I wasn't morally opposed to it, the amount of paperwork that you have to do when you disclose to HR that you are dating someone in the company is ridiculous (corp Amer). And then you have to have meetings about ✨️everything✨️. They also say it doesn't interfere with your career, but it does.

Hell no.

I have so many stories about people who dated at work, and people who broke up and how it destroyed their entire reputation. And some people got married. And SO many people were having sex in offices. And people were having affairs in the office...

No.

Literally laughed in my second response to you, but congrats for not paying attention and jumping ship with a non-excuse?

Lauren @oglauren.bsky.social · 7h

This is what they do so often though. And it's not just elected officials, it's dems in general. When you start calling them out and telling them they're not being progressive enough or they're being hypocrites, they jump right to the false equivalence and appeal to perfection fallacies.

I take it back. I am not interested in the answers anymore.

😂🤣😂 He had to have known & was going for confirmation because you change all through school to go to gym. He went swimming at or to sleep away camp. He had to have seen somebody's penis. Even if it was just two or four people, the fact that his was so much smaller. Like, come on

I'm interested in the answers, but that entire thread is fantastic and full of important information, like short man syndrome. It is so important that he listen to everyone in the thread and get the help that he needs. To speak to a professional. Also sex toys exist. Personality matters more.
