like the myth at the heart of white masculinity is that repression actually works. that you will achieve your highest potential only by smothering your vulnerabilities. meanwhile all dr. robby has achieved is alienating every member of his staff in a single shift

It's Monday and I'm dragging my feet so it's time for productive procrastination

Yeah it seems less like he's dying of being of being old and more like somewhere along the way it clicked for him that there's only so many ways this ends for him

The reason my university did not ever get to have a drag show while I was there is because they will not allow "large" events unless you budget thousands of dollars to pay cops to be "security"

Weirdly enough the rule was only enforced for this and when trying to plan protests.

Been waiting my whole life for a reasonable explanation of why the guy hassling teens of color outside the mall should line his pockets with traffic control overtime outside the grocery store. Crossing guards aren't cops until you're forcing the public to hire them.

i think everyone should just make and update their own lil websites and then text or email or call their friends when they add something new i think that could bring social back to media

I missed the memo about when I die so I don't know when the middle is going to be

They can't give a target recruitment number to explain why they need more money to have more recruitment

LMAO he immediately confirmed numbers are down nationally 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you fucking TROLLS

I don't have cold medicine 😭 I have soup and Tylenol and I'm going to sleep

You're right that if they're paid better elsewhere they'll leave to do what's best for themselves and that's great. Let every shithead cop who whines about their job leave, I don't care, I'm glad they're gone, sorry Massachusetts maybe stop sucking their dicks

Thrilled to share they're whining about recruitment, retention, and morale. Sad to share your reps and mine love pigs and are going to give them more money

The state police obviously just naturally wants to be a smaller organization and instead of fighting that you should take the extra money you pump into them and give them to those poor teachers at the food banks you're so ashamed of

Oh you think cops should get paid more in their pension because of all the bullshit overtime you already pay them? And you think THATS why nobody wants to be a pig?? Dumb as rocks

They've moved over into finance

Ma'am you're right that we should pay teachers well but if it's embarrassing for them to use the food bank and shameful for y'all to have put them in that position (and thanks for saying so) wtf do you think of everyone else using the food bank

At least it's an excuse to get my favorite Chinese place veggie soup 😔

A lot of rustling in the room at a proposal to recognize/reaffirm Israel, sounds like two weeks to tell your RI rep what you think of that

Nobody wants the sludge machine in their town, the one in Woonsocket is failing and the people of Woonsocket are sick of being RI's toilet

They've moved onto a commission to study our sludge

You can ignore any cranky posts from me my very productive week got hit with what I hoped was allergies but is probably illness

Providers "spending too much time on paperwork" HIRE NURSES YOU MISERABLE FUCKS

Why did we let these tech psychos turn us into this

Enjoying (s) watching the state conversation about AI use in healthcare, love people asking if they have the ABILITY to opt out. Yes. Tell your dr you will sue them for violating your privacy by sharing this data with a third party company with no hippa protection

And thus I clothe my naked villainy
With odd old ends stol’n forth of holy writ,
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.

Imagining a cis man learning about women's health and pleasure and making clear statements about it as a good thing and idk it sounds like a net positive to me

The systematic destruction of feminist spaces online is what inspired us to start  The Flytrap. Since last year, part of this work is archiving key Bitch Magazine articles that have disappeared from the internet. Here's some pieces we reprinted this year!

If you had to name one thing that's your top non-negotiable in a relationship what do you think it is? I think we can assume the default starts at "doesn't abuse me" in it's varying forms but I'm also thinking more of something additive rather than "doesn't x/y/z"

Maine, please,,,,,

Oh hey, they're back again today. ICE is just running rampant in Massachusetts courthouses.
