Thereβs several reasons that business and public figures began immediately associating WFH with laziness and slacking, one is that these are things they already believe about disabled/chronically ill folk, and they hope you do, too.

Honestly, mainstream pubs have been shuffling in this direction for a while, but there are a few reasons why most pieces tend to get pushback from fandom

I understand the instinct to donate to orgs that are helping trans folks flee red states but let's not forget about the orgs that are still fighting for trans folks in red states.

People in sci-fi novels are always naming their exploratory vessels shit like ICARUS and IXION and while I am not superstitious, I would maybe go with the USS GOT-THERE-SAFELY.
Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.
Hereβs what experts say you need to know.
Did you know that the bees that need saving are NOT honeybees?
Honeybees are the dairy cows of bees. People brought them over from Europe to make us honey.
The problem with honeybees, esp in resource-limited ecosystems (like hey! cities!) is that they compete with our native bees for food.
Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for sale
You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further. The 1999 Toyota Corolla. Let's talk about features. Bluetooth: nope Sunroof: nope Fancy wheels: nope Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn. Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End. You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up. This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children. Things this car is old enough to do: Vote: yes
Consent to sex: yes Rent a car: it IS a car This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would. Interesting facts: This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey. In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional." When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey. Favorite food: spaghetti Favorite tv show: Alf Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the-
When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine." Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla. Google map of cars location
Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.
I like this a lot, and it applies to everything. You don't have to go total cold turkey on *every* backend-awful thing out there. Maxxabstaining/ Waldenponding isn't needed! Just push your behaviour in a new direction and turn that preference into a habit. That'll move the needle nicely.
What a poem. From Dorianne Laux's book, Smoke.

Screenshot from Tumblr User hatingongodot: βIn 1404, King Taejong fell from his horse during a hunting expedition. Embarrassed, looking to his left and right, he commanded, βDo not let the historian find out about this.β To his disappointment, the historian accompanying the hunting party included these words in the annals, in addition to a description of the kingβs fall.β LMFAOOOOOO rip to that guy User Shitacademicswrite: i thought maybe this was fake, but thereβs even a citation! Taejong Sillok Book 7. 5th year of King Taejongβs Reign (1404), February 8.
Never forget the anniversary of King Taejong falling off his horse!

A post on threads from user stephens_bens. It reads 'I'll always remember an interview with Steve Buscemi on Bulleye, Jesse Thorn asked him "As an actor with many decades of varied and outstanding roles across your career, does it ever bother you that one of the things you will most be remembered for is a 3-second gif in which you're wearing a backwards baseball cap and carrying a skateboard?" And without missing a beat, Buscemi replied "I'm carrying *two* skateboards." And you know what? He is.' Below that is a screen cap of Buscemi's famous "fellow kids" moment.
I never noticed this either.

Fantastic long tumblr post (a little over 3k altogether) out of Heated Rivalry fandom about navigating the homosocial but homophobic atmosphere of the locker room as a gay man, hockey-as-sex, and coded interactions as a queer man in these spaces.
