@seerutkchawla @LailaMickelwait Using the words "reluctant consent" in a court of law aught to be enough to get you summarily disbarred. Or any other qualifier intended to justify or diminish a violation of consent. Saying yes because someone threatened, initiated, or escalated violence, is NOT consent at all.

@danidonovan If it's something everybody WANTS, you probably SHOULD. Happy employees give you better ROI, minimum. If it makes the work more comfortable, or SAFER, you might be saving yourself from a lawsuit down the road.

@raidahlovah @MiguelZ42982261 @BrandsOwned With absolutely 0 exceptions: EVERY job that needs a human to do it must pay enough that by working 40 hours, they can afford a place to live (take home 3X the 30th percentile 1BR rent within walking/mass transit commuting distance). Paying less is exploitation.

@SantanaLKane @woetoconquered @bannedyoangel When must white people use humor about another group of people, it's intended to be insulting, showing off why the Other is Lesser; so if Black people are making jokes about them that they don't fully understand, the unknown is assumed filled with malice.

@NHaliloglu It's...children's artwork. I don't see anything overtly antisemitic. How would anybody KNOW that the artists were from Gaza if nobody told them? I'm assuming they sent art that they made while recovering & being treated by staff you sent there to help them BEFORE the genocide?

@DavePunFun @DailyLoud It was underdiagnosed for a very long time, but it has always been with us; it's the origin of the stereotypes about scientists & engineers being socially awkward. Either you're born with it & die with it, or never have it at all. Some do learn to "mask" it better than others.

@Marri "Let me know if I can help" is assigning another burden to someone who is already overburdened. I had an idea for approaching this from the opposite direction, making it easy, obvious, & confidential for disabled people to request accommodations.

We know #COVID damages T-cells; HIV is the only other virus that can. If it can wreck your immune system 5 years after infection the way HIV does, wouldn't that make non-masking in the grocery store as dangerous an idea as performing oral sex on everybody who walks in the door?
