pots and kettles on a double date 💕

Ahem! Now that I've got your attention, did you know that our boy Wu Xi is currently in the @/crown-and-scarf-tournament, competition for the title of the most beloved leader? And did you know he is currently losing by a very small margin (with 49.4% of votes for him)? he won another round since then, but is now having a real tough time? Well, now that you do, you can go and vote for him here. Love and snakes on planet Earth 🐍💚

Today we took our young son to the hospital because he suffers from two holes in his heart, which affects his breathing and causes him pain. I hope every conscientious person will help us save our little son's life and donate any amount possible

PLEASE DONATE!!! Even just $5 dollars counts, whatever you can afford to donate makes a difference!!!

Hello , I am Shareef Alamoudy, I am from Gaza married and have twins children Hus… sharif Al Amoudi needs your support for Donate to Save My

The misuse of the "insult to life itself" quote from Miyazaki on AI burns my yams so bad bc the original context is being disgusted with how a characters movements are dehumanizing to disabled people specifically bc of his empathy for a disabled friend and it's such a sadly rare sentiment, this cognizance of how we casually inflict indignity upon disabled people and how he finds it disgusting, I hate seeing it obfuscated

not to be controversial but sometimes I think the private personal lives of celebrities are in fact none of our business

In less than 24 hours, $4+ Patrons will know how it all wraps up. If you want to join them... well, you know what to do.

(And as for what comes after the Juno series? Let's just say you'll have answers to that mystery sooner than you think. Stay tuned, Travelers.)

I feel like I'm going insane. Multiple massacres in Gaza right now and no one is paying attention.

Read such an incredibly enlightening thing on twi today!!

Required reading for all BL lovers tbh. Some stuff is Japanese-specific but a lot is applicable to, say, danmei.

Love is all around! Love of all kinds ways and expression! Happy Valentine’s Day!!

So, this hasn't crossed my dash yet. (Not blaming anyone, there is soooo much going on in the world and I'd also missed it in the noise).

There is currently a strike at Frito-Lay. in Topeka. These workers are striking because:

They were being forced to work 84 hour weeks. The company's best offer so far is a 60 hour cap. This is shit we fought for a century ago, people.

Their generous offer also includes a whole 4 percent wage increase...over the next 2 years. I'm not sure what COL is in Topeka, but... Well, it's better than the entire 77 cents they've apparently gotten in the last decade.

There's also a report that a worker literally collapsed and dropped dead on the line and the foreman's response was to make them move the body out of the way and put in a replacement. (However, this is unconfirmed and, of course, the company denies it).

There have been multiple OSHA violations at this plant over the last few years, including a forklift accident that's under investigation.

They've now been striking since July 5 but, of course, it only hit the national media yesterday.

So, why am I signal boosting this?

Because Frito-Lay is refusing to budge. They are attempting to make the excuse that union leadership agreed to the 60 hour work week and crappy pay cut...when union leadership only agreed to put it to a vote.

And this means that we need to put the thumbscrews on them. Remember, this is about 19th century style working conditions.

So, I'm calling on my followers to boycott Frito Lay's until the strike is involved.

Frito-Lay owns:

Lay's

Doritos (Sorry. I really am. I KNOW there's no good alternative to Doritos, although Zapp's are good if you can find them).

Fritos

Tostitos

Cheetos

Ruffles

Sun Chips

Baken-ets

Chester's

Cracker Jack

Islen plantain chips

Funyuns

Grandma's (the cookies)

Matador Meat Snacks

Maui style potato chips

Miss Vickie's

Munchies

Munchos

Rolled Gold

Sabritones

Santitas

Simply

Smartfood

Stacys

The Walking Taco

NatuChips

PopCorners (this one wasn't on their website, but was bought by Pepsi's in 2019 with the intent of adding it. So best avoided just in case). Yes, this really is more than half of the snack aisle. Suggested alternatives:

Kettle Brand Chips

Zapp's (If you can find them. My supermarket had them once and not since, so I'm guessing the culinary cowards in this neighborhood were afraid of "Voodoo" flavored chips).

Pringles

On the Border for salsa.

Wise Cheez Doodles

Bugles

Utz

Store own brand alternatives, if your store has ones that are any good.

Cheez-its

Check before you buy and let's tell these people they don't get to treat workers like that.
