I’ve probably said this before but having every good and service turn into a subscription model is one of the worst new developments of our era of capitalism. Like yeah, shit sucked before but it didn’t suck for 19.99 a month indefinitely. This some new shit.
Reblogging this again bc I can’t stop angrily thinking about how there should be laws in place so that when a company sells a product or service there is either a cap on how many years they can keep charging subscription for it or they have to name a price they decide the product is worth and either the buyer pays that upfront or by those weekly/monthly instalments. At least put laws in place on what legally qualifies as a subscription service.

a little beverage from the store doesn’t count as spending it’s just a little drinky drink

Bit of advice to anyone who is new to kink or even just sex: assume “no”, “stop”, “too much”, “wait” etc are safewords unless you specifically negotiate otherwise.
You can play with “no no it’s too much stop” type stuff being banter or dirty talk or whatever, but you shouldn’t assume they are. Yes even if you set a safeword and you or the other person isn’t using it.
Also: getting quiet or not very responsive is a reason to check in. Someone not being able to give you a clear “yes I’m having fun let’s keep going” or seeming a bit off is a reason to stop when you do check in, especially when they’re a new partner.. You can’t just assume things are fine bc they haven’t said the safeword.
Safewords should be extra measures to ensure ongoing consent, not the only measure.

Hey guys just a heads up!! pay close attention to ur halloween candy bc people are disguising TESTOSTERONE BLOCKERS and ESTROGEN TABLETS as candy!!! they out here tricking kids into transitioning!
Can we get a fact check on this please
My coworker’s cousin’s nephew got hormone candy last halloween and now he got titties!!
-.- he got fat, hormones are too expensive for that foolishness just like the drug rumors
Then why, in addition to his titties sitting, is his waist snatched??
So y'all let dude transition that far without taking him to the doctor? 😂🤣
I mean he was sickening!

My friend takes this one step further and refers completely accurately to his girlfriend Danielle as “My partner, Dan”
Also i hate to say it but for some people, boyfriend/girlfriend feels a bit juvenile, say, if youre over 30, or perhaps youve been with someone for a very long time and are committed life partners but not married for whatever reason. Maybe husband/wife feels a little watered down to you and you want to establish the equal nature of your relationship.
Partner is a wonderful word and it should be normalized.

employees should be allowed to steal, actually
idk. yesterday was a slow day and at the end of it, I still stared into a cash drawer, one of three, that had more than my rent in it, even if you only count the 20s. I spent a lot of that day trying to calculate in my head how many hours of work equal one pair of pants, let alone how many hours of work equals the fun thing I want to do next month.
I feel a cough coming on, because I work in a drug store, and all of my customers are sick. I always feel a little bit sick, now. I can’t afford to eat well enough to keep my body healthy. Cough medicine is worth two hours and 20 minutes of work. Our store probably bought a case of cough medicine for they price we’re selling one box. If this cough gets worse, I might have to call out, which will cost me more than the medicine in the long run- but that doesn’t give me the money to buy the medicine right now. I stock a case onto the shelf. I don’t buy any.
A mom wrangling three crying, sick kids enters my line and sets two types of children’s medicine down, says they’re both on sale and thank god for that. I ring her up, and she gets very quiet, because she misread the sign, and her total is twice as high as she was expecting. Her youngest screams in the cart, because she’s burning up with fever. Her mother very quietly asks, please, she’s so sorry, if I could please take the more expensive one off her total.
I agree, I move the box below the counter, and when she’s not looking, I slip it into her bag. I pray as hard as I can that if she notices the “mistake” she says nothing, because I so desperately want her to have that medicine. The store has lost profit at the cost of a child’s health. I don’t bat an eye. This is a terminable offense. If I’m presented with the same situation tonight, I’ll do it in a heartbeat.
The myth of evil employees stealing from the company falls apart the second you realize the company would shoot you dead to make a profit. This isn’t two equal players, one of whom is stealing from the other. This is someone fighting for survival versus someone fighting to make an extra million. It’s not equal.
Employees should be able to steal, actually.
