I still think that my favorite urban legend/folklore fact is that there are certain areas in New Orleans where you cannot get a taxi late at night not because it isn’t safe, but because taxi companies have had recurring problems of picking up ghosts in those areas who are not aware that they are dead and disappearing from the cab before reaching the destination and therefore stiffing the driver on the fare causing a loss for the company.

An occupational hazard of cab driving I had not previously considered

I love that the nola problem here is not “ghosts in my taxi cab,” but “ghosts are FUCKING BROKE DEAD BASTARDS & I GOT BILLS”

Horror is when ghosts get into cabs and scare drivers Magical realism is when cab companies have to develop policies to prevent ghastly fare-theft

In a book about the tsunami in Japan in 2011, the writer talked about how there was a huge increase in reports of ghostly activity. Apparently in Japan treating ghosts rudely is basically considered the stupidest thing you could possibly do. For months after the tsunami, taxi drivers would pick up a passenger only to have them give an address in one of the devastated areas. The cab driver often looked up halfway to the destination to find their fare had disappeared. Not wanting to be impolite to the person (even if they were dead) they’d drive to the address, open the door to let them out, then drive away.

emo-communism

is anyone else just like. constantly filled with rage about their position under late capitalism and how we are expected to just keep playing this game that we know will literally kill us, is already killing people all over the world, and yet everyone around us is somehow fine with going about business as usual, with pretending we are free by being able to choose between different ways of being exploited. there is nothing more dehumanising than being forced to partake in a system that is actively detrimental to our survival as human beings, that is so physically, psychologically and spiritually destructive, and i don’t know how to deal with this anger anymore

I try to keep my nose out of shit like this but today. man. today I encountered something that really ticked me off.

today I met a professor who does queer studies. she told me that her teenage gay son yelled at her recently for using the word “queer” in describing her discipline and demanded to know how the university “could get away with calling it that.”

so of course she’s baffled right, and asks him where on earth this is coming from. and he told her he read it on Tumblr.

listen if you don’t want to be called queer and don’t want to be lumped in with folks who comprise the queer community, that’s fine. that’s totally fine. it is 100% okay. people are allowed to have complicated histories with that word. it’s a fraught signifier. it’s a mess and it’s allowed to be.

what’s not cool is telling young LGBTQ+ people that queer is a slur in all contexts because now you are stripping away not just the language that we use to describe ourselves but also the language that creates the discipline that lets us study our own lives and our cultures. Queer studies has been a part of American academe since the 1970s (possibly earlier, depending on who you ask). “Queer” has been a functioning and largely unproblematic signifier in American academe since ten years before the AIDS crisis. If you don’t at least know that much, you have absolutely no business trying to educate LGBTQ+ youth about queer history.

Trying to censor the word queer from our collective cultural lexicon is 1) impossible. it’s here now. and 2) an erasure of our lineage of scholarship. I could spend all day lobbing criticisms at American academic culture and I do, but queers created space for ourselves in academe. We built a queer world inside the tower that tried its best to keep us out and now we have a place here.

I am a queer person and I am a queer scholar. You use whatever words you want to signify who you are and how you live your life and how you love your loves. You won’t hear a peep of criticism from me. All I’m asking is that you do me and mine the courtesy of leaving our collective body of text very much the fuck alone.

The mere fact that a lot of women found out for the first time that there was a woman in Mission Control was a very big deal. I thought it was important that people understand that women can do these jobs—going into science, going into technology.

Frances ‘Poppy’ Northcutt

Northcutt was the first woman engineer to work as a flight controller on the Apollo program. Her team designed the “return-to-Earth” trajectory of Apollo 8 and wrote the program used to compute the maneuvers to safely return Apollo 13. The sexism Northcutt faced as one of the few women engineers at NASA led her to become increasingly involved in the women’s liberation movement. As an activist and lawyer, she has advocated for women’s rights for fifty years.

mcdonalds to their workers: remember we can replace you with robots and it would be just as efficient so do not to beg for more scraps.

mcdonalds three seconds later: ice cream machine broken, sorry.

justsomeantifas

the reason they’re always “broken” is mcdonalds ice cream machines take 4 hours to clean, mcdonalds has repeatedly said they would replace the machines with ones that are easier to clean, and yet they still haven’t years after the proclamation

basically what i’m saying is, how can they replace their employees with efficient machines when they can’t even replace their machines with efficient machines.

cronagorgonzola

Those old ice cream machines are nasty af btw, corporate’s refusal to replace their old busted-ass machinery is a danger to the workers and consumers. The one at the McDonald’s I worked at had an internal leak so the inside was just full of old rotten milk that smelled like death, but even after my manager opened it up and cleaned it out upper management wouldn’t even think about replacing it cause they didn’t seem to see a problem. Because apparently exposing your workers and customers to rotten food isn’t a problem as long as no one sees it.

Anyway even if the ice cream machine is working probably don’t get the ice cream.

For some reason my cat has serious beef with my neighbor’s outdoor cat, Mr. Boots. The feud is so petty at this point that on Christmas night Mr. Boots literally scaled a brick wall so he could come hiss at my cat through the window to ruin his holiday. I can’t get over how furious he looks why are cats like this 😆
