FYI if your employer does this, if they have done it for a long time especially, you and your coworkers could be owed huge amounts of unpaid wages and it would be an easy suit if there is a paper trail like this and your employer is placing strict requirements on your behavior while not at work. Employment lawyers generally work on contingency. Just food for thought.

also im growing to hate the phrase “hold accountable” in discourse because its always so…. empty? like you see people saying “sure this person apologized, but we need to hold them accountable!” like cool. what does that mean. how can you get any more accountable than a public apology. do you want them to apologize… again? more? get a tattoo explaining their crimes so everyone they meet is informed? do you want accountability or are you repeating buzzwords because you cant find a nice way to say you just want them to disappear.

ocd is not fucking destigmatized

“intrusive thought” gets thrown around by assholes talking about putting strainers on their heads or stepping on a leaf who in the next sentence will say “if your thoughts are about actually hurting people they should put you in a psych ward”. compulsions and rituals get seen as proof you’re “crazy”. ocd insight CAN be delusional, even. pocd and sexual ocd is especially demonized, though even something as “harmless” (to others. not *us*) as contamination OCD is still mocked, belittled, and seen as a sign something is fundamentally wrong with you. I have seen people twice my age advocate for violence against anyone who thinks the way I’ve been forced by my mental illness to think since i was 6, maybe 7 years old.

OCD is not destigmatized.

I heard cohost is pretty similar to tumblr and made an account :3 there’s an activation period of like a day or so before you can actually post but y'all should check it out. I love their privacy policy and what they stand for overall?

Here’s my account.

Here’s some homepage screenshots

They also allow nsfw unambiguously btw.

make an account here and follow me >:o i am queueing this for multiple times a day :3 I’d like to get at least a small circle established over there. but would love to see some of my favorite faces (⁠〒⁠﹏⁠〒⁠)

i am probably going to try tapering off my tumblr usage over time and either fully or mostly transition to another platform instead of dealing with All Of This lol.

I have been using and promoting Cohost for a while now. I have decided to use Tumblr for the time being but for some reason every time I try a new website it self destructs so it’s nice having Cohost as an option.

In my opinion the reason the original tumblrapocalypse was as devastating as it was is that we didn’t have an alternative lined up but today we literally do. Use Cohost!

It’s literally just Tumblr right now and the only downside is that everyone is here and not there.

Besides it’s great to have it as a backup because you can tell staff here that if they keep up their shit there’s literally a company already entering the market and vying for their exact userbase.

HEY, YOU, FOLLOWER THAT IS READING THIS

make an account on cohost Right Now and follow me there. Make cohost a backup option At Least!! Don’t get caught at the moment tumblr finally implodes, make your backups now and help start building out communities elsewhere.

YES they don’t have an app, but hey? NOT HAVING TO DEAL WITH THE APP STORE IS A PRETTY GOOD WAY TO ALLOW NSFW UNAMBIGUOUSLY.

Just?? bookmark the site, pin it to your home screen. they have literally NO ads and NO tracking and it’s very legit; made with love for a bygone era by disillusioned programmers who hate the way corporations run things.

Download a throwaway browser you only use to go on cohost if you want, just SIGN UP FOR COHOST. I’m shouting this from the rooftops every time Tumblr does something dumb and people say there’s nowhere else to go. GO TO COHOST. Cohost is going to be closer to tumblr than tumblr will be in like half a year from now. Tumblr locked itself into its own demise DESPITE everyone’s please and frequent feedback. GO TO COHOST. The owners created a nonprofit and the site runs on donations, they do not have shareholders to please and infinite growth to chase after. COHOST COHOST COHOST. GET ON IT. GET YOUR FRIENDS ON IT.

they also let you play with css in your posts and have a dedicated tag called “css crimes” full of stuff you can interact with made by other people.

my favorite so far, just to give a small taste of what u come across on there, is this dude who worked for BBC and made their login portal.

check out the site in question here, click on the laptop and start typing.

here’s some other visually fun examples

This one’s interactive and after it changes to the second image the little icon joyfully bounces up and down

I’m trying SO hard to tell y'all there are GOOD THINGS on cohost, cohost is GOOD.

If you want to have certain things changed or make suggestions too there’s a place to submit that and it doesn’t feel like you’re just throwing it into the void. The devs are a lot more personable too since, y'know, it’s not a business. Seeing them [reblogged] onto your dash can be pretty funny too. I’m not gonna stop boosting cohost and when I have enough mutuals over there and people I follow i Will be using tumblr a lot less.

also there aren’t any real government entities on there like on twitter so you can do shit like this

The missing Americans: Unprecedented US mortality far exceeds other wealthy nations

A new study found that more than one million US deaths per year -- including many young and working-age adults -- could be avoided if the US

ScienceDaily

More evidence that republican reagonimics is literally killing us.

highlights:

In 2021, 1.1 million deaths would have been averted in the United States if the US had mortality rates similar to other wealthy nations,..

“Think of people you know who have passed away before reaching age 65. Statistically, half of them would still be alive if the US had the mortality rates of our peers. The US is experiencing a crisis of early death that is unique among wealthy nations.”…

The US had lower mortality rates than peer countries during World War II and its aftermath. During the 1960’s and 1970’s, the US had mortality rates similar to other wealthy nations, but the number of Missing Americans began to increase year by year starting in the 1980’s, reaching 622,534 annual excess US deaths by 2019. Deaths then spiked to 1,009,467 in 2020 and 1,090,103 in 2021 during the pandemic. From 1980 to 2021, there were a total of 13.1 million Missing Americans.

The researchers emphasize that this mortality crisis is a multiracial phenomenon and is not specific to minoritized groups. Black and Native Americans are overrepresented in these measures… Still, two-thirds of the Missing Americans are White, a result of the larger population of White Americans, their older age distribution, and death rates that are significantly higher than other wealthy nations…

They connect the large excess mortality burden to the failure of US policy to adequately address major public health issues, including the opioid epidemic, gun violence, environmental pollution, economic inequality, food insecurity, and workplace safety. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated many of these issues, particularly among lower-income and minority groups, and now that most of the safety-net policies created during COVID-19 have expired, vulnerable groups have lost vital support.

“We waste hundreds of billions each year on health insurers’ profits and paperwork, while tens of millions can’t afford medical care, healthy food, or a decent place to live,” says study senior author Dr. Steffie Woolhandler, Distinguished Professor at the School of Urban Public Health at Hunter College, City University of New York. “Americans die younger than their counterparts elsewhere because when corporate profits conflict with health, our politicians side with the corporations.”…

We have to do a course about “love” in Pdh

(by which, of course, they mean healthy relationships, which is important, but you can already tell it’s going to be RIDDLED with amanormativity and aphobia)

so to troll my teacher I’m going to mention qprs as often as i possibly can.

I will mention a-spec identity and relationship anarchy once for each note on this post. Reblog to wreak havoc on the allos.

why am i getting emotional over the wikipedia article for the mystery dungeon series

what part of this justifies an emotional reaction

it doesn’t really feel any different from emotionally reacting to things that “make sense” to emotionally react to though. even the feeling of weirdness is the same. brain connected to Thing and now you will have weird emotions.

(insert general is emotional reaction to Thing empathy question)
