“You worked faster today/did more today than you did while WFH two days last week. Obviously you _Stole Time_ from us, and would‘ve done more work while horribly ill in our office instead.“

Am I able to make a report of that threatening behaviour to a worker (with a confirmed & documented infectious illness last week & full 12 hours in ER for further treatment)? Or does it need to be THAT worker?

@ Ontario Emoloyment Stds Act / Labour Board knowledgable peeps

If I am aware of highly suspicious* employment practices occurring at a workplace after a worker returned to work on a Monday after a week out of office (2 WFH days, 3 sick days) involving threatening termination due to “time theft”..

people get hella mad when you say adult drivers should be more responsible than children on our streets.

there's
1. a history of hypothyroidism in my family (father); and
2. a history of thyroid cancer in my family (mother)

so we're just out here with a hope and a prayer and a prescription for store bought hormones lmao

then she explained that my levels are "normal" but in a high-end of normal, meaning we can increase my levothyroxine and see how that feels. gotta get my arm stabbed again in a month to check up on that

Despite having normal TSH levels now since late 2019, this doctor said we can increase my dose to see if that aids in my cognitive/physical energy and function. this came up because she said i need to get checked every 6 months. previously I was told i needed to do bloodwork once a year so clarified

This is the first time in 7 years a doctor has asked me about my energy levels re: my thyroid medications

What do you call a heterosexual in a gay martini bar?

Words, I just said out loud while driving: Hey fuck face it's a roundabout not a lay ABOUT

so grateful my cousin appreciates my humour

you shouldn’t learn about bands from shady TikTok manipulation, you should learn about bands by hanging out with a girl you like but are also extremely afraid of

Let's count the ways this is terrible policy, shall we?

1) it punishes students with anxiety and other health reasons for missing class
2) it distorts transcript grades for post-sec applications
3) it disincentivizes improved attendance mid-stream (why start attending if the damage is done?)

on the phone with the pharmacy to see if they'll prescribe tamiflu for my partner (:

imagine arguing with your devout catholic grandma and shouting "the pope is WEAK on crime"

Very unimpressed by pop neurodiversity influencers and their AI apologia.

More bullshit claiming that anti-AI stances are classist and ableist and racist.

Meanwhile, AI is built on exploited black labor, kills disabled people every day, disposesses the working class, and drinks all our water.

"the pope is weak on crime" what

Every other salad on the menu listed whatever dressing it came with, and this one didn’t. Maybe the kitchen decided halfway through that it needed a ✨sauce✨? So even when you do everything right…. It’s still wrong 🥴

We went to an Irish pub in Northern Ontario 🇨🇦 and unfortunately, the salad (meeting requirements as per menu and allergy info) arrived drenched in an undeclared egg-mayo-based dressing.
It was too late by the time the food came to order anything else :( (we had plans after the meal)

A business that just directs me to their Facebook page does not feel like an actual business.

Pet peeve here! I don't understand how Meta/IG/FB has a monopoly on business pages when they only let me look at one page for a few seconds before requiring log-in? And no, not everyone has Meta accounts...

My university’s student union insists on only posting to Instagram and cross-posting to fb using stories that say “link in bio” when of course there are no links in the Facebook bio and they could quite literally include a url in a Facebook post 😩
