educating yourself on dog whistles of all kinds will have you feeling insane in settings where nobody questions anything they're parroting

and maybe i did use a pay over time app to get the 100ml bottle of The Ghost in the Shell perfume from Etat Libre d’Orange because it was on sale on FragranceNet for less than the normal cost of the 50ml bottle.

i was scared bc it was being shipped by a company i’ve never heard of before and the last time that happened my mattress cover was stolen so literally 4min after it was delivered i had Aaron bring it inside for me ooooooooo i wanna get home and tear into it so bad

i do actually think it's crazy that employers get a say over shit like tattoos and piercings and we just let that happen

if you look cool as fuck you become unemployable

i do also mean like, face tattoos, yall know that right

besides the obvious that people should have the right to do what they want with their bodies as a form of self expression, the stigma against face tattoos specifically has a long, violent, racist, imperialist history that stretches across the globe

it's crazy how plausible all the shit the corporations do in the murderbot diaries is. that one scene when murderbot was talking to those humans who had signed a 20 year corporate work contract and it asked them if the contract specified 20 years by the standard local calendar or by a proprietary calendar created by the company was downright unsettling 😬 if the ceos of modern earth companies read these books they would probably start crying because the government won't let them do most of this in real life.

hey fun fact this has absolutely happened before. part of the push to standardize time/timezones was because factory employers had clocks set to the pace of their machinery. meaning of the workers were not doing enough, time would run slower until they had reached their goal. there is historical precedent.

Oh this is crazy
