Like. Look. Listen. I have taught introductory quantum physics at a university level, and I need you all to incorporate this into your trans advocacy: There are situations where you need to make a decision to prioritize being comprehensible to your target audience above being The Most Unassailably Correct.
Teaching a toddler to wash hands because yucky when the Ethics Understander crashes through the roof. "STOP RIGHT THERE," the Ethics Understander shouts at me. "The disgust response is not a legitimate substitute for a considered value judgment, and in fact, weaponizing disgust instead of grounding those judgments in a more rigorous framework is fundamental to reactionary rhetoric!"
The toddler looks at me. "You are a fascist, auntie. I have seen the light and will now go eat chewing gum from the pavement, unless you can educate me on a rigorous framework on the microbiology of pavement chewing gum this very instant."

[ID: 5 rows of illustrated borders, featuring different animals or designs. The top row has mint green and pale yellow winding, leafy vines framing a central, dark green, lightly spotted crab with upraised claws, and five small flowers arranged, one at each (wide-set) star point around the image. The second row has three wide-eyed fish, all facing left, with two smaller, blue ones framing the central, horizontally red-striped, green one. Surrounding the fish with erratic symmetry are colorful flourishes of comma-like curls, dots, and small star bursts. The third row is a dull bronze (with streaks of muted colors like a patina) lattice of diamond shapes bracketed by two large, pearly off-white diamond-shaped stars, all against a black background. The fourth row is two buff tan-torsoed gryphons with dull green hindquarters and folded, dull mustard yellow wings with dark red at the bend. The gryphons face each other at the center, but have their heads turned back over their shoulders. Their ear tufts extend past the upper border bar and they stand on, some claws past, the lower border bar. Seven dull red (some with a lighter gradient) pansy-like flowers on muted green vines symmetrically flow between and behind the gryphons. The last row has a pinkish parchment colored box with a twelve-pointed starburst in gold-accented blue, on the left, and colorful comma-like swirls and streaks flowing from it to the right, like a comet. Smaller starbursts of varying sizes are scattered across the image. /end ID]
Working an office job will truly make you have the wildest enemies, bc why is my nemesis rn a woman I’ve never met and who exclusively haunts me by sending diabolical emails, and also a specific guy who left my company before I even worked here and made the system so fuckass that it ruined procedures for like a year

one of the things that I see in sherlock holmes adaptation a lot that I think is meant as a vaguely melancholy 'oh, how changeable life is! how sad that all things must come to an end' but makes me erupt into chest-ripping piles of grief is 'holmes moves to sussex and falls out of contact with watson and they never reconnect before their deaths'

I really can and will blame the 9-5 for everything. "We're in a loneliness epidemic" well, we have to spend a third of our day interacting with people in a professional way that makes forming real friendships difficult and then we're peopled out by the time we're done. "People are eating more and more unhealthily" people have to spend more than a third of their day doing work related tasks and they don't want to spend their tiny amount of free time making food. "People aren't involved in their local communities" after spending more than a third of their day doing work related things people are tired and also all those community events take place during normal working hours. "People need to get more hobbies" after spending more than a third of their day working, people are TIRED and don't want to do anything that takes yet more energy. "Literacy is dying" to maintain your critical thinking skills you need to read/watch things that make you think and after spending more than a third of your day doing work related stuff you are TIRED and don't want to expend even more brainnpower. "People need to get outside more" People. Are. TIRED. Because they have to spend all of their time working or preparing for work or recovering from work or doing all the chores they couldn't stay on top of because of work. I can blame fucking anything on having to work, it is truly the root of all fucking evil.
Hey OP, love your scalding take here; don't forget about commutes.
Once you factor in commute times (which even for short distances can be grotesquely inflated due to the fact that so many people are all commuting at the same time, but that's a different conversation) many people are actually devoting upwards of 10-12 hours a day on "work related tasks."
