@ticklewater I have an interview next week and of course I need to wear a suit, but I'm thinking about taking a look from the Spice Girls. I'm just struggling with whether I should wear black pinstripe because it's professional or white because it's summer?
@biffco I was one of those kids that studied the liner notes of my favorite albums-- I would recognize "Spice Girls/Stannard/Rowe" anywhere. So when I saw you on the Pride Spotify page... you affirmed something in this queer girl's heart. Thank you.
@will_thad @akhan1437 Another issue is an insufficient labor pool. Prisons are usually built in more rural areas, and often there aren't enough people in the local community to fill all the jobs. So prisons (aka the state aka our taxes) pay to bus staff in or offer ridiculous incentives.
Whoever had Prince Philip in the death pool just won absolutely nothing because we all know that man has been dead for years and they've just been carting his fluff-stuffed corpse around in a "Weekend at Buckingham" gag.
@tiarabertram I've ALWAYS thought this. When in practice are you ever going to have to write a motion or memo or whatever without being able to reference caselaw and treatises and whatever the hell else?!
Amazon workers have said they urinate in bottles. Rates of injury and illness in its warehouses are infamously high. Employees who lobbied for better conditions have been fired. That is how someone gets this rich. You don’t amass a trillion dollars without exploiting people.
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R) said in her state, it will be considered a “voluntary quit” if an employee refuses to return to work once businesses reopen, thereby losing access to unemployment benefits.
A similar situation will soon play out in Texas. https://t.co/qGmapbLBzi
This isn't a #pandemic, it's a memedemic. Future historians will study reddit and Twitter archives as closely as they do the New York Times. Imagine your #TikTok being cited in a #dissertation as "primary source material."
@jermaineFOWLER how is Miss Mimi Teapot my new favorite drag queen?! You were brave, sincere, touching, hilarious, and beautiful. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. #CelebDragRace
I want to come up with an agreed- upon name for what's happening. "Lockdown." "Isolation." "Quarantine." "Distancing." "Depression." "Existential dread." "Bottomless pit of loneliness and terror." #Covid_19
y'all, my mom is the goat. so she works in a nursing home with mostly other immigrants and she asks her boss for hazard pay considering they feed, bathe, and care for elderly & immunocompromised residents.her boss (karen) laughed at her and said they could have free lunch one day
Headlines will say "Jack Dorsey donates $1 billion" and I want everyone to know that's not what he's doing. He's putting $1 billion into a company that's gonna be a part of the privatization of services the government should provide. It's gonna be like the Gates foundation.
The final person to explain his vote is @MrMikeBlake. He tells his colleagues supporting bail reform rollbacks: "You are voting for Black and Brown and low-income people to die for your re-election."
The bill passes. Cuomo will sign the death warrants.
