Truly insane and stupid that Faith wasn't at all interested in learning about Kendra. Truly insane and stupid that Kendra didn't hang over all of season three like an angry ghost, like a phantom limb that Faith is a poor prosthetic for.
With how much of her characterization is defined by being fixated on/competitive with Buffy and with how desperately she clings to slayerhood as a means of defining herself, Faith should have had at least ONE EPISODE dedicated to Thinking About Kendra. She should have wanted to know EVERYTHING, and we could have had GREAT SCENES of her asking questions that Buffy finds invasive and painful.
Buffy should have compared Faith to Kendra often and unfavorably. Giles and Willow too. Faith should have been competing with Kendra just as much as she was competing with Buffy.
i'm getting the sense some of you are not actually forklift certified.

I can't believe this is how I'm finding out that I got a scam forklift cert.
I took the cargo ops class at school but my teacher explained that it doesn't give a certification and I'd only be okay for ship's crane and the school forklifts. she said I could take an online exam and get my cert. I paid 60 bucks.
I'm googling and I'm seeing a lot of resources saying that the online programs cover the classroom part of the exam but not the in person practical aspect.
29 CFR 1910.178 (l)(2)(ii)
but I did the in person practical shit at school.
the back of the card even had fancy numbers on it. I couldn't have known that this isn't the one. this website sounded more official than certifyme.net, and there wasn't one with a .gov address.
so, I emailed OSHA, and they said that so long as I live and work in California, there's no such thing as forklift certification. I have to be told how to do it every time I get the job.
Update: I took a certification class in shipboard Material Handling Equipment at my federal job. *now* I'm forklift certified, but only on ships and piers and only for this company, but also rated to forklift explosives and hazardous materials. Also I'm a woman now.

Sorry, my what? My pronouns? Oh, yeah I'm between genders at the moment. No, it's cool, I quit my last gender a little while ago because it really wasn't working out. I don't know if I even have a dream gender anymore.
Oh yeah, it did come with benefits, but they weren't really worth it. The culture was really toxic. To be honest I think I'd prefer a part-time gender so I can just be self-described in my spare time.
I mean, in a perfect world we wouldn't need gender, you know? We could just voluntarily be perceived as much as we're able, as much as makes us feel fulfilled. Having a full-time gender shouldn't be a prerequisite for food, shelter, and healthcare.

I love your book club and all the amazing Black scholars you cite! I wanted to recommend that everybody read Gayl Jones’s work and learn about her life story—I read Corregidora (link goes to the Beacon Press page for it) years ago and I still think about it frequently. One of the most impactful novels I’ve ever read. I could see people finding it a challenging book in terms of the themes but that’s why I think it’s worth mulling over.
Edited by Toni Morrison, and read and praised by James Baldwin AND Maya Angelou?? Oh this must be PHENOMENAL. Thank you for sharing!

This Fourth of July, I ask that you support Native Hawaiian independence.
The Kingdom of Hawai’i was illegally overthrown with the help of American businessmen and we have suffered under the iron grip of America.
Our land is simply seen as a vacation spot, my people are simply seen as tour guides and hula dancers. We have had our culture, our history, and our people turned into a commercialized joke by America.
The rampant tourism kills our islands with endless hotels, attractions and overcrowding. The housing and living costs are out of control because of the false “paradise” narrative. The Navy poisons our water and destroys our land. Covid has killed so many of my people due to the reckless and selfish nature of tourists. I have lost loved ones to this virus, because tourists “couldn’t stay away”.
My people have suffered. I have suffered.
We are more than your vacation. We are more than an aesthetic.
We are a sovereign nation illegally occupied by the United States of America.
Restore Hawai’i to Hawaiians. End the American Occupation.
See the links below to learn more and to read up on your Hawaiian history.

I cant go to my local libary anymore because last year when I stopped by a librarian was reading a book I wrote under a pen name years ago. This book sold under 10k copies and I've literally only heard people talk about this book online *if* I went looking for it so I went up to them and tried to start a conversation like "oh hey I've heard of that book is it good?" Like hoping for some real feedback and she goes "yeah I love reading things by queer writers" and in a moment of terror I was like "oh but- hold on, I thought the author was some old hetero white guy?!" A thing I thought because I used my own dead grandpa's picture for the author pic because grandpa never had internet. I fake looked it up and was like "yeah if he was queer its not public?" And without looking up this absolute unit goes "oh the author bio is obviously fake. I'd bet my left leg the author is a west coast millennial non-binary queer who has never lived on the east coast." And then proceeded to rattle off a dozen linguistic flourishes that are specfic to the pacific northwest that are in the book and several that are nearly ubiquitous in the state where I said my pen name lives that are somehow completely absent from the book.
So you know. Got read for fifth and didn't even find out if she liked it.

Most people aren't using this term in a hostile way, but it's still important to consider the implications of our language.
Didn’t this term originate with TERFs? When someone uses it, I’m immediately suspicious of what circles they’ve been hanging out in
The Templers just being a few old men who just like hanging out is endearing. They fund raise and like go carts and skeeball. And even though it’s a fraternity, Herb tells Vesper if she just wants to play skeeball she’s welcome to come and do that. And when she displays sincere interest, he immediately sees it and accepts it. They’re grumpy and don’t like change but they do change because they believe the Templers are more important than some arbitrary rules. Also the one old man ensuring nonbinary people are included because his grandkid is nonbinary suggests he not only accepts them but is creating the opportunity for them to join as well. Maybe he hopes if they join the two of them will have the opportunity to spend more time together. Reminded me of my grandpa. I don’t think I’ve ever felt like someone just wanted to spend time with me more than him. He was the sort to call just to talk. Maybe I’m projecting but I like them.
FULL ARCHIVE OF THE DISCO ELYSIUM MOBILE ARTWORK
I don't support the mobile port HOWEVER I do enjoy the artwork, so I decided to rip the assets myself and upload it all here for free use! It has all the art, icons, ui and sprites included.
Here are some of my favourite pieces I found:
You could use as wallpapers potentially! I hope you all enjoy :]
used to live in a college town that was huge on sports. 80% of small talk was sportsball and so i developed an Evil Habit: whenever the conversation inevitably turned to the upcoming Big Game i would act excited and then confused. I would earnestly insist they had the details wrong. "the game next Saturday? don't you mean the Thursday after? playing against the [predator species]? no we're playing against the [other predator species]." And so on. i would draw this argument out for as long as feasibly possible, until eventually someone would pull out their phone to prove to me my wrongness. At which point I would squint exaggerated at the screen, slap my forehead in an eureka moment, and exclaim "oh you meant the MEN'S team!!! are they doing a game? that's nice."
oh good tags:
#i have the rare joy of living in an area where the college team people care most about is women #but that also makes interacting with anyone not from here on the subject feel very odd #like wdym you only watch the men’s version of the sport. wdym you treat that as the default?? we root for our girls here

I know a lot of Canadian hockey boys and if there is one (1) thing I know about Canadian hockey boys is that they have an indoor basement rink. Realistically, it was probably at his parents' main house (which I believe they sold?), but let's consider it's at their cottage.
Yuna and David are doing something (cooking dinner, out to the store, etc.) and Shane is giving Ilya the tour. An actual tour this time because they are at his parent's house.
Once Ilya sees the little practice rink, he lights up. The walls are splashed with Shane's youth trophies - snowplow sam badges in a case, tiny little baby skates, power-skating ribbons, pictures from his first tournaments, team jerseys from U8-16, his first hockey stick hanging on the wall, his first game winning puck on a shelf, his first tiny jersey. Ilya takes his time to comment on everything.
Then Ilya grabs a stick from the wall (one of the practice ones) and a puck from the bucket that hasn't been touched in a decade. Shane, never one to back down from a challenge, especially on home turf, grabs his own practice stick. There are no skates that fit either of them, so they just step on the synthetic ice with socks on.
And that's how Yuna and David find them, checking each other into the flimsy boards that are not meant for fully grown hockey players, firing shots into the little nets with enough force to knock them over, cursing at each other like there's a ref around to do something about it, etc.
Yuna can't believe she ever thought Shane would let Ilya win anything.
