Don't dress slutty, but please try to be sexy.

Be on the alert for predators at all times, this is your job, because they can't just be expected control themselves, but don't be afraid of all men...somehow.

You need to be strong, but not too strong, you don't want anyone to feel emasculated.

You need to want to have children, you have a womb, you just have to use it, but please don't let the children interfere with anything else you need to do. We are already doing you a favor giving you eight weeks of unpaid leave!

Be very thin, but also eat cheeseburgers and drink beer, because we don't want to acknowledge that for most people, being very thin involves not eating enough.

Be vulnerable and emotionally available, but I swear to God, if you cry at work, or express anger about anything, you're going to make everyone uncomfortable, HR needs to talk with you.

I get that you're working full time and 3 other people live in your house, but it's you're fault it's not clean enough, and did you really get take out again?

You need to have it all, but don't expect any hand outs.

Be smart, but don't show off, EVER, be demure, let them think it was their idea.

You need to be funny, but don't try to get attention, and don't snort laugh, and not too dirty, please don't mention your period!

And ffs, would it hurt you to smile?!

I wish you beige types lived near Denver because I'd cover your beers on my tab all the damn time. Also I hope my daughter grows up to piss off literally everyone including me!

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult. I showed my brother in law Brimstone And Treacle because he'd never seen it and claimed to come away a changed man. I'm always a little astonished when people have dug into the same cinema as me!

On the #enshitification of #academic #publishing. Where scientists burn the candle at both ends, paying to read and publish their work, in what is the ultimate grift.

"One can argue that the vast amount of research published today is either fake or only there to boost someone’s h-index, not the creative enterprise which is science. "

One CAN argue that but one would be making a generalization and one might get slapped silly for doing that. My h-index is somewhere in the 40's but that's because I do team science and I end up as an author on consortium projects. We don't pick and choose, we publish what we have.

Warning: Rant coming.

The doomsaying and cynicism in my comments over the past few days are annoying me.

I am addressing the people saying any form of: "Why won't the Supreme Court rule in Trump's favor?"

You are unhinged from the facts. Get a grip.

Here are the facts: Since Trump lost in 2020, the Supreme Court, and every other court, has consistently ruled against him in his immunity claims.

mycotropic,

@mloxton @Teri_Kanefield

In other words, trump isn't the decision the billionaires that bought the Supreme Court paid for. He built the billionaires court but it's for some other set of decisions that are either currently available to them or in the pipeline.

👏🏼Rep. Jasmine Crockett dubbed some GOP colleagues “idiots” & “a–holes” + criticism of attempts to launch formal inquiry into Biden.

“The Oversight Committee is where all the drama is. This is where the impeachment inquiry is…it’s insulting that we have idiots like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Paul Gosar, Jim Jordan…& they talk noise constantly and they’re like, ‘Oh, the Biden crime family.’ & I’m like, ‘I’m sorry. Have you met the Trumps?!’”

We already litigated this exact question everyone. "Where?" you might ask, the answer is in the 1987 movie "From The Hip";

I think that my 14 yo and my 16 yo are arguing because the former accused the latter of having "stage five mind cancer".

What is one decision you've made in your life, that you knew was the absolute right decision to make and why?

mycotropic,

@RickiTarr

"So you're not interested in reenlistment?"
"That's correct."

Oh and why? I don't do well with stupid people in charge of me, not everyone in the infantry, and I'm sure I missed some wisdom there but quite enough of people with more rank than me were not vaguely competent.

Historical occurrence at my house! My sons are watching the movie and I assume they're the only ones who ever have (having seen a few seconds)!

The fediverse is not buzzing today. Or maybe I’m just boring. I think I’ll go and buck early-season traffic and head for Harbor Freight and buy some tools. Anyone need anything?

mycotropic,

@shoq

If I could get a pair of pliers that can't provide more than about a pound and a half of twisting force without bending that would be great. And a Philips head, number two that will instantly strip when it comes into contact with, for instance, pocket lint or a chopstick.
Thanks!

A new study found that prayers didn't help patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Here's why I hate everything about this https://skepchick.org/2023/12/study-prayer-doesnt-cure-covid-jury-still-out-on-thoughts/

It didn't work for cardiovascular disease either; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11761499/
