genuinely tired of ppl going to bat for cishet "inclusion" like they dont get included in every fucking thing else. "u need to welcome them into ur queer communities/friend groups" why. its not about them.

Can't even mention that a store near me is clearly using abusing the TFW program because they refuse to pay little more than minimum wage in a high cost of living area (also you won't get benefits and you'll only be part-time) because the fascists and right-wingers will jump in to say it's about immigration and white replacement.

No, it's because rich white people want to hoard even more money and found an intentional loophole to both make more money (via paying employees less) and also have more power over employees, employees who may or may not know Canadian employment laws (or safety laws) and even if they do, don't have the ability or support to try to hold the company accountable.

You can absolutely criticize the federal government for keeping the loophole open but it predates Trudeau by decades and it was Harper who both expanded the program and added a way for companies to fast-track TFWs. It was also under Harper that companies started firing Canadians (or not hiring them) and then requesting permission to mass-hire TFWs instead.

But the way the right wing talks, you would think Trudeau started this whole thing and the poor multi-million and multi-billion dollar companies are being taken advantage of. Also that housing prices, lack of new developments, and zoning issues started with Trudeau and are the fault of mass-immigration he has a boner for instead of being an issue for decades and experts warning this would happen if governments didn't act ASAP.

Instead the neolibs and cons kept cutting back and kicking that can down the road, a can that started being kicked by Mulroney and the Conservative Party.

part of the reason gymnastics can be such an annoying sport to follow is that the athletes are SO ONLINE i can’t think of another sport where the athletes engage so closely with fans with such regularity on twitter and i don’t think it’s a good thing lol

every so often I remember that lil ol' me is one of the core reasons Wikia/Fandom never got to fully roll out the autoplay article summary videos and I laugh at how much that sites whole infrastructure is run by like seven people just throwing darts at the wall to the point one little no-name weeaboo can make them have to scrap an entire site wide objective in its infancy

i just couldn't imagine enjoying the latest songs over the earlier stuff. like you can feel the emotionlessness. but hey bc of parx and you i have now listened to hunny, and i stg saturday night is a bit cheesy but it has more soul that anything from parx5.

theres a quote from pete wentz, sometime from like 2005, about how kids can smell bullshit and fakes and reject it and thats exactly what this is lol. theres no heart in parx5, it is designed in a cowriters studio to attempt to ride the ~pop punk revival wave~ in the most blatant cashgrab ever. i do love that hunny song (and all hunny songs tbh), just as an example, bc jason yarger isnt TRYING to sell out!!! hes not fine-tuning his lyrics to fit the fucking tiktok algorithm hes just writing what he feels and thinks sounds good!!!!

i truly cannot, CANNOT understand anyone TRULY, ACTUALLY, NOT JUST SAYING IT TO SUCK AWSTENS ASS ON TWITTER FOR A LIKE OR RETWEET thinking that “we can fuck about it if you want thats all we ever do anymore i dont likw your attitude blah blah” shit is anywhere near the same caliber as. like. literally any fucking lyric off anything pre-fandom. be fucking fr

i will be honest. im getting a little worried about this last year of school. because i have absolutely no work ethic whatsoever. like i thought this year would be easy-ish bc i wouldn't be spending most of my time working on a writing project (I finished it over the summer), but like...I have no desire to do schoolwork. like at all. not only am I behind in readings, I also don't...have any desire to catch up. this is not like me, to be clear. i am teacher's pet who annoys everyone else by being on top of things, usually

I haven't fallen behind on assignments, but for reference, the past two years I basically always handed in assignments a week early. now i have an assignment due on wednesday that I could finish tonight but just...don't want to

it's been like four weeks. im worried about the rest of the semester if my desire to like, do anything schoolwise doesn't improve

edit: oh you know what. i just remembered that senioritis is a thing. okay. okay i feel less bad about all of this now lmao

just think keir starmer should kill himself at this point. legit the only way forward for the uk is for him to go into the houses of parliament and ritualistically execute himself in front of the commons

Of all the inscrutable social hoops I am forced to jump through my least favorite has got to be the mandatory asskissing in cover letters (specifically in academic and literary areas). If it's functionally required then does it even make an impact or feel genuine? Do people even like being on the receiving end of that?

A: Back in the day, they used to do tug of war between two absurdly strong four hundred pound men. And it just lasted forever, and it was incredibly boring, because they were absurdly strong, relatively equally. They would need one of those guys to get B’s nose out of C’s ass right now.
