it's neat that university boards are saying "actually our classes will not teach you to think bc we know that's very scary, so from now on our degrees are meaningless bc we will let students come here and decide to give us money so they can choose not to learn shit, this is a good longterm plan" 🫠

If I wasn't already boycotting Target, this would make me start boycotting Target.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

@governor.ca.gov Governor Newsom, given the abject failure of GOP transphobia tonight to get them absolutely any success whatsoever with voters, will you be reconsidering your policy of throwing transgender Californians under the bus to further your political ambitions?

No more Black or trans staffers. No politics of any kind. The cowardice of mainstream media isn't just insulting, it's *boring.* Now TV is just like any other beauty rag. Why not just kill it quickly? Why the slow-motion pretense?
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Not me looking at the DnD 5e rules trying to figure out if a subway sandwich would be considered a ranged weapon or a thrown weapon.
It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

some Halloween tips:
don’t turn away older kids. let them have fun for as long as they can
don’t turn away kids without costumes. You have no idea what their situation is
if you view halloween as a chore, just shut your door and lights instead of being grumpy at kids
