Ā Ā Ā āSurely the day will come when color means nothing more than the skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak oneās soul; when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood.āĀ - Josephine Baker , the avant-garde, ebony flapper.
I work at Walmart and I barely make enough to pay my bills and buy groceries at the same time. I donāt even think the managers are making living wages considering how much time they have to dedicate to their jobs. Literally the only people actually profiting from big corporations like these are the people at the top. All the rest of us have to take our little $1000 a month and try to make it work. And donāt even THINK about getting sick or having a chronic condition while trying to work at one of these jobs. Iām in the midst of recovering from brain surgery and about to go through a six week long radiotherapy treatment, and Iām STILL going to have to go to work every day because Iām not being paid enough to save up anything for eventualities like this. And since I only just started there, I donāt have any paid time off days either. Donāt get me wrong, I appreciate all my coworkers and everyone I work with, but itās fucking disgusting that I canāt really focus on my health because Iām too busy stressing about money, and the people at the top with the power to make my life easier and fucking pay me a living wage wonāt do it because they want to hoard all the money to themselves.
Guys I love my new job so much my boss is so nice we have paid breaks and can eat and drink off the menu free all day itās iconic
As someone who changed his name just for fun when I thought I was still cis, i promise most people are ok with accepting a new name, even if you lie and say itās a nickname. I promise. Itās really easy to just casually go āhey I wanna go by Bob now, itās an old nickname I wanna bring backā like. Just start introducing yourself to new ppl, no one knows better. and if someone accidentally deadnames you just go haha no I go by my nickname now.
It sucks that ppl treat nicknames as more sacred than trans ppls choice names but still.
Small Brain: Jake Peralta sees Captain Holt as a father figure, which he reciprocates by treating him like a son (i.e. participating in the Halloween Heists every year, using codenames with him, and among other examples, general love of what he calls Messin Witchaā¢). Therefore, Jake Peralta is Captain Raymond Holt's favorite child.
Big Brain: Rosa Diaz shares many characteristics with Captain Holt, including emotional range, vocal tone and/or inflection, and overall character development throughout the series. Therefore, Rosa Diaz is Captain Raymond Holt's favorite child.
Galaxy Brain: Peralta and Diaz are both of Holt's favorites, but he interacts with them differently because they're different individuals. He loves all his detectives at the Nine-Nine, but Peralta and Diaz have a special place in his heart.
My mom and I were talking about my sexuality once and she was like āYou still might end up marrying a man. You might never meet a girl that you like enough to be in a relationship withā Like okay but that doesnāt mean Iāll be straight though. Iāll still be bisexual when Iām in a m/f relationship.
I canāt stop laughing becauseā¦
like I donāt know how you can get more obvious than tweetingĀ āIām sure Iām bisexual,ā but clearly The Sun isnāt convinced
