Yeah, because they're a part of the company. People are correct when they say HR is not your friend, I just think it's weird to assume they're a friend to begin with.

I had slightly more caffeine than usual yesterday and feel like I almost died. Being over 35 is great.

Also this is what unions are for.

People hate HR for being on the company's side, but that's true of every department. Are they also pissed at IT, or payroll, or the building manager for enforcing rules?

Kate Manne writes that a foundational part of misogyny is that women are expected to provide care. But HR isn't your mom.

Do you hate the accountants too, since they're on the company's side? How about the IT department?

Who should we have process our new hire paperwork and administer our benefits?

Me too except I hate when anyone does it, regardless of how far left they are.

The Olympics’ trans policy polices womanhood | Moira Donegan Sports bans have humiliated trans women and girls across America. Now, the Olympics joins in

I wrote about the Olympics’ ban on trans women competing, and the stakes of the new women’s sex-testing regime for female athletes, trans and cis alike. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Girls only think about one thing and its disgusting (the interaction of british coal, empire, enduring labour rights from the black plague and the haber-bosch process)

I'm glad to see people saying this. In some Instagram comments it almost looks like a consensus that sleepovers are too dangerous.

And there's a lot of, "I'll host a sleepover at MY house, but my kid's not going to anyone else's house" ... which just isn't gonna work if that's everyone's stance.

The story says he seemed like a normal devoted father but I think there's always an untold story of domestic abuse in cases like this. He's a family annihilator except his wife survived. No one should ever have to feel grief like hers.

The internet at large cannot be trusted to handle concepts like "the male gaze" responsibly.

No, it's still cars.

It's true. It's not the hills or the rain or the cold or the exercise, or even the time it takes. Without the constant threat of injury or death from cars, I would bike everywhere all the time.

I kind of don't get the point of the whole argument, because even if there were genetic differences between races that wouldn't change my political or moral views.

"Sorry, but it smells like someone tried to cover the smell of a stable with potpourri."

"Smells like masculine grandma"

I looked up one star reviews of the fragrance I wear and they are art

Pre-grieving doesn't help, does it

We’re the bad guys for pointing out that men often rape women AND we’re the bad guys for suggesting that not every man should be treated as a would-be rapist the second he invites a woman to drink with him or go into his room.

I saw a video of Kyle Maclachlan saying, "I've just found out that I'm unc, and chopped" and all the comments were like "unc, you're not chopped!" and that's been stuck in my head ever since.

I promise I will keep it to myself though. Just walking around my house saying "Unc, youre not chopped!"

you are not unc if you're in your 30s. you're unc if you are a black man that dresses like this.

TFW you don't like your haircut and you just have to walk around feeling ugly 😔

the fact that he’s using it for propaganda makes me regret ever painting this

Good things can happen

I have pretty much all my clothes clean at the same time for the first time in years. If I just stay nude I'll never have to do laundry again.

Somebody should have explained to me as a child that everyone is stupid and nothing will make sense

Good news alert 🎉🎉🎉

Oh thank god
