Sorry we don’t have pants with pockets. Can I interest you in a completely transparent cotton t-shirt that will immediately disintegrate after the first wash? No? What it I told you that it was also cropped?

The low tech version of this is placing a metal spoon on the trackpad. Always green.

The latest death panel episode talks about how the state is using its power to make people forget the uprisings of 2020 and the early pandemic responses (increased social safety net). It’s central to the project that we forget what is possible and what we achieved.

They’re just The Chicks now but still cool as hell. Not ready to make nice slaps.

My parent got their bag stolen once like 20 years ago now and the thing they always say was the worst part was getting their prescriptions refilled. Not replacing the credit cards or the ids, not the hundred or so in cash that they were out…

I don’t even know if there is such a thing as trafficking blood pressure and diabetes medication.

It wasn’t lol but that’s a pretty good summary.

Our hh tested positive for the first time recently. We think we got it because my partner’s coworker came to work with “a kind of Covid.” His new manager also insists on weekly in-person meetings. One can attend online but it’s difficult to hear or participate, and my partner needs that information to do his job.

The coworker in question, who has had Covid 3 or 4 times now, told my partner “you can’t avoid it” and honestly if you come to work maskless and sick, refusing to even cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough, how is that not a threat?

Askamanager is a great resource and you can get a free ebook on preparing for interviews. I’ve been reading her blog for over a decade at this point.

The woman who runs it has a ton of experience in the hiring process. There’s a lot of shit advice online but this one has helped me ace a ton of interviews. Good luck!
