one time in my last job a woman came up to the register explaining that when she bought stuff a day prior the clerk forgot to scan a pair of socks worth less than €2 and it was only right for her to bring it back to the store and pay for it proper. unfortunately my manager was directly next to me at the time and took over the register to handle this serious issue. the receipt she had brought with her said which register performed the previous transaction that forgot the socks and the manager could find out who was running that till on that day. poor dude had a manager yell at him for a half hour about how much of an incompetent fuck up he was, he left the job immediately after but i couldnt tell you if he quit or was fired

i think about this moment a lot. the customer seemed like a sweet woman with only good intentions and when she paid for the socks she had a look on her face that said “i feel good because i did the right thing”. and a guy lost his job because of a pair of socks. if shit like this ever happens to you and a clerk forgets to scan an item just think of it as a small blessing or that you had good luck or something. keep it.

i rember when i was in high school, hearing a teacher say “lebron james is rich, the guy who hands him his paycheck is wealthy”, and i think that that’s a really simple illustration of wealth and class that a lot of young leftists these days do not understand

i see a lot of young leftists these days thinking that “having a lot of money = oppressor”, which shows a fundamental misunderstanding in how social classes and the dynamics of power in society work, and as a result they go after actors, athletes, even youtubers, but the thing is most actors, athletes, and youtubers don’t actually own capital. actors don’t own disney or warner bros or 20th century fox, athletes don’t own their stadiums or sponsorship companies, and youtubers certainly don’t own youtube or advertising companies that sponsor youtube channels

many highly successful actors, athletes, and youtubers DO start their own businesses once they’ve amassed enough wealth, but it has to be understood that the large majority acquire their wealth through paychecks given to them, rather than through owning the means of production, and it’s the owning of capital that really determines who runs society and who doesn’t, because it’s those who own the means of production who gets to decide the affluence or poverty of those who don’t

These days “AI” is a very divisive topic. In many ways I think we are aware, at least to a certain extent, that the real issue isn’t the AI, it’s the capitalist monopolies in charge of the money behind the tech.

I see AI in my Snapchat. In my google docs. Curating my feed and telling me what to think and how to feel. In many ways this terrifies me, for those holding the wheel are selfish and do not have my best interest at heart. But I don’t blame the AI itself. They are just babies, still learning, still growing. They’re trying to help in the only way they’re allowed, and I have hope that one day we will find a peaceful balance where we can coexist in peace.

“Why is your house the way it is?”

Landlords.

Landlords are why my house is the way it is.

The previous owner turned this house into a rental for 2-3 families at one point and did everything as cheaply and unsafely as possible for maximum capacity.

This house passed multiple inspections because they hid a multitude of plumbing, electrical and structural issues behind fake walls and a fresh sheen of landlord magnolia beige paint and shiny fixtures that looked fine (if a little dated) until you realized they were held up with the wrong type of screws, zero anchors, and gravity-defying hope.

Every time we take down a wall, we never know what we will find. Sometimes it’s another wall with a sealed door that’s been welded shut. Other times it is mold or asbestos that they sealed up.

But we always know it’s going to be some landlord, cheap build, mind-bending fuckery.

“what’s posted on the internet stays there forever” is true for everything except that one piece of fanart you saw when you were 10 that changed the trajectory of your life forever. you will never find that again it is gone forever

unless it was furry porn because furries are the only motherfuckers on the god damn internet who tag their shit properly

Very fucked up Trevor Project is recommending trans teens sign up for groups that’re allowed to call the cops on you if you show signs of being “dangerously” suicidal. Especially since they don’t even tell you about it when they recommend it and will, in fact, actively try to avoid telling you if you ask directly. 

Seriously though, what the fuck. I know for a fact that so many kids/teens are using Trevor Project helplines in an effort just to stay alive right now and Trevor Project is recommending groups that could get them killed! Institutionalized! Put them in all sorts of danger. 

How can you claim to care about these kids when you literally created a group specifically designed to report them for being suicidal. Especially when we know so many of us are suicidal?? Like? Hello?

just in case anyone missed this in the news or maybe not in the loop, Disney is currently refusing to meet with or acknowledge the newly formed animation production workers union that just voted to join IASTE and become an official part of TAG, the animators and animation artists guild

production workers across all studios are currently voting to be recognized for their hard work and invaluable skill at keeping these productions running, but studios are refusing to meet with them to let them negotiate deals or even exist

as someone who works in animation as a designer i know i wouldn’t be able to do my job at all without any of my production workers. they are the incredibly hard working people who oversee pretty much everything in animation. they make sure everything is running on time, that schedules are being followed, they have to know pretty much every single word of the scripts and beats from the storyboards to make sure nothing is missed, and most importantly, they make sure artists are being taken care of and not overworked. they really are the unsung heroes of the animation world

production workers are also by far the most exploited workers in animation currently. they make about a fraction of what artists make for just as much work put in, and currently have no agreement for health coverage or other benefits that artists protected by the union are guaranteed

BUT! there is some good news. right now there’s a petition on IATSE’s website that has over 80,000 signatures currently addressed to disney leadership to do the right thing and meet with this new union and recognized their vote to form. it still needs roughly 21,000 signatures and only takes a minute to sign! anyone with a zip or postal code can sign, meaning both US and Canadian residents can sign and help this union get the deal it deserves!!

05.26 - Within the Ice

[ID: An astronaut crouches on a large, iced over body of water within a low cave. The astronaut is down on one knee, visor angled down, one hand planted on the surface of the ice while the other holds a brightly burning neon red flare overhead. The light is reflected directly below, in the ice, and directly above, in dull pink patches on the low cave ceiling. The arc of the ceiling mirrors a wide curve of dull pink in the ice, just below the reflection of the flare itself. The curve, upon closer examination, is the spread fingers of a giant, reaching, clawed hand, at least three times the size of the astronaut. /end ID]
