There are so many HR professionals who have to manage laying off good people, this would be a treat

To do this, anti-trans lawmakers in Kansas moved fast to change the law, overrode the governor’s veto, and pushed for the legal changes to go into effect nearly immediately. That kind of power—to void gender on official documents, to compel gender conformity—is terrifying and it will not stop here.

Maybe shouldn't have told my co-worker I think about being a tug boat captain every day

I desperately want to go sledding in the cemetery but it's not the best idea for my barely healed foot

My wife got started with the snowblower in the driveway @universalhub.com

I had another existential crisis in a thrift store and think i need to find a different no/low cost soothing activity.

I had a dream I worked at another start up with a lot of former startup co-workers. They got together and got me a cart of books, a bag of pastries, and everyone thrifted a shirt for me! Someone had still left a rotting pumpkin in the supply closet

GOVERNMENT IS A BURDEN ON THE PEOPLE

The furnace clicking on sounds like a mouse and this cat is here for it

The show "To My Best Friend" at @icaboston.bsky.social, writes Lauren Kaufmann, is a fair reflection of the museum’s desire to spotlight work by artists who have traditionally been neglected by the museum world. artsfuse.org/323490/visua...

15 year old me is DYING from excitement

It bums me out that you can't reliably pick up a flat cotton sheet at the thrift store anymore.

How to style this cardigan to say sexy but also nonchalant but also singular but also trenchant but also holy fuck they’re arresting journalists.

I've never appliquéd anything, but adding Abolish Ice to this quilt top seems like a good place to start!

I still have a broken foot, but I'm there in spirit

Doing my part with a cat picture in these shitty times

Calling all the PhDs I know to make monumental annoyances of themselves (and honestly, who better)

Tubi has deportation ads, c'mon no :(

I still can't walk around much and now my eye is cloudy again? I would like to try something else please

Inspiration for continuing lampshade vibes all the way up my body.

Massachusetts: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: BYSTANDERS IN ICE ENCOUNTERS Bystanders to ICE enforcement actions have the right to observe ICE officers and record the encounter from a reasonable distance, so long as they do not interfere with the officers. More at: mass.gov/AGO/immigrantresources alt-text

This is my blood

Like there’s a ton of individual issues but the broader problem is that there’s an assault on giving a shit about anyone besides yourself, nihilism that tells people the only way to prevent getting hurt is to hurt enough other people and that sickness is filtering into the bones of everything.

I would really like to have a mid-life crisis but the Raised Lutheran part of me keeps on tut-tutting about how impractical that is. Plus I dont have any ideas. Plus the country is crumbling around us.

Hard to believe a FIFA Peace Prize winner would be invading another country 😬

Time to lean even farther into swamp witch life

oh no

Amazing thread, love learning about Joe, human beings can be so cool. I also think everyone driving an ambulance across France in WWI was a teenager (my great uncle was)!

You would think I would have stopped being baffled every time an other-wise seemingly competent co-worker asks for an old W-2, but nope. Do other people not save these documents? They often come electronically now!

I think in these times it's important to have a favorite type of goose. Mine is currently the white Chinese goose, which is a type of knob goose with a big knob on it's head that lays a lot of eggs.

I broke my foot a few days ago and am laid up on the couch, but this big cat thinks I am *finally* giving her enough snuggles

My BIL keeps sending me ai videos on ig, even when I point them out and say I am not interested...

Oh no!

On the one hand, it brings me great joy that my phone sometimes changes 'to' to 'tomato' but on the other hand, my coworkers may think I'm deranged

I'm sorry, but if you repost those altnationalpark goofballs you are unserious (derogatory)

Ok enough whining, here's a cat

Is life just crying every day? I'm a little tired of that

22 year old me was correct about not being cut out to work in an office, unfortunately it turns out that everything is terrible

Hey g00gle how do I become a cloth merchant

I sae a squirrel in a pumpkin on my walk today and I think that may be an emotionally weight bearing squirrel in a pumpkin?

Why are some chicks (ducks, chickens) born with feathers and others (robins, pigeons) are not? Do you think Big Bird was born with feathers?

Let's start by acknowledging Covid

This talk is going to be so neat! Love MICE

Why did I wake up with Fad Gadget in my head...

Can't even make it to the Orange Line platform at North Station to try to get to Oak Grove @universalhub.com

This cross-pollination IS how new ideas happen. EVERY field needs humanistic thinking, that's why they call PhDs "Doctors of Philosophy"

25 more years of this while I crumble ffs
