Not great with technology, hence I only 'like' to bookmark
I have found out by chance & somewhat by default, that I am now published by one of the Big Five publishers.
Before you send your congratulations, this may not actually be a good thing. I am cautiously reserving judgement.
In the meantime, please do not buy any of my books.
@NicolaMDavidson Reminds me of the slimy videos on YouTube which keep popping up nowadays. Usually a half-naked creepy white guy around a pool, trying to persuade the audience that he's living a life of luxury due to some get-rich-quick-with-minimal-work scheme.
@girlonthenet I love my current faves playlist, even though I know it has some weird, both unknown and populist stuff on there. And probably waaaaay too much '90s. https://t.co/jsHE0XSlgd
@discoagogo I'm well aware I have trouble with spatial orientation - if there's an easy way for things to fit, it takes ages for me find it. My recent DIY has confirmed that I struggle sometimes to see different options. So, this is a definite no for me!
@kj_charles Congrats. I can build loads of stuff with wood - I made & hung a gate for a friend recently which is proper gate pron, if that exists - but electrical stuff? Brain just hiccups.
(If you fancy a cheap stay in Mid Wales in exchange for changing some light fixtures, let me know.😉)
Not so gentle reminder that this is who you're supporting if you go see Beautiful Disaster.
EYE see way too many folks on my TL who either don't know or don't care. If you didn't know now you do. If you don't care enjoy your lil movie but make sure you unfollow me first.
@Charlotte_Stein Ummm. In that scenario, lying didn't protect any of them.
If Sarah had acknowledged it was a genuine error, but pointed out that the guy was a massive racist with personal history, she had already apologised etc, she may still have a job.
HR's hands were tied by her/their denial.
@Charlotte_Stein Mate, I don't know what you're doing!
HR have to investigate a 'nudity at work' complaint, no matter how minor or what an AH the 'victim' is.
'Sarah' was sacked as she lied to HR. She got the rest of the 'crew' in trouble too. That's not a nice thing to do to your colleagues.
@Charlotte_Stein@Laforesta1 In the eyes of HR/law, when he made the complaint, he is also a victim.
Disregarding history: at work, is it acceptable to have someone of any gender appearing undressed? Depends how responsible they were at preventing it.
Is it acceptable to lie to HR? No. Not if you want a job.
@Charlotte_Stein@Laforesta1 The rest of her team having to lie for her (rather than the option of plausible deniability about what is nudity) makes her TA. She let them down.
That potentially damages their careers too, & means once he moves on to a new target, they will be considered unreliable witnesses.

Just so everyone understands, it isn't the shutdowns that are killing us.
It's the virus
Even at 50% capacity, we're never full
Lifting restrictions won't help at all. Getting the virus under control is our only hope
@AdamRHale@eunapark Thing is, science knew this already.
There are so much evidence - proven stuff - about how to protect ourselves against respiratory illnesses, that just seem to have been forgotten or proven again. Masks, Vitamin D, keeping warm, mouthwashes/gargling etc.
It's so exasperating.
@merlinslaugh@Charlotte_Stein And they continue to play along with the media, in order to protect him & the p**do in their midst.
Honestly disgusted by the lot of them, excepting H&M who will never, ever be left in peace.
@Agentmg17@nofunfortrish@OliviaWrites@ElinGregory I once tried a ripping-my-own-knickers-off experiment, with a fancy pair which were excruciatingly uncomfortable to wear. It...did not go well. 😬

I thought I would have a go with a torturous pair that I had no fondness for after wearing them for a night out.
(Note: never wear anything that you find uncomfortable before leaving the house.)
The standard knicker-ripping description usually involves snapping the side seams...
