How is it not bait and switch or false advertising? They can charge companies for those actions when they do it to customers, why not to applicants?
I’ve been filling out a lot of job apps that way recently. Not even a confirmation email threat they got my app. Those are probably the fake ones.
They can do it because hold all the cards. Honestly, if our government actually wanted to protect us, they would make this illegal.
I think these bois, much like “spider crickets”, get a lot of flack because their legs are TOO DAMN LONG! They’re cool dudes, but something about those weirdly long legs…
“We think this is already covered by clear Supreme Court precedent,” said Patrick Elliott, the legal director for the Freedom From Religion Foundation.
Unfortunately, the current surpreme court does not care about precedent.
The school already had single stall bathrooms for fuck sake! I use a non-gender conforming bathroom at work all the time even though it’s labeled “men” and “women” because I can close the door and no one can see me and it’s exactly the same as the other! And using kids pronouns? You use kids pronouns all the time, just this time you use the one they want.
Close-minded people trying to ruin literal children’s education because they are too fragile of snowflakes to take the signs off of bathrooms and use a different pronoun than they feel is “right”. Honestly, it’s good this came out, because the kids would have probably been bullied anyway from the kids with shitty parents. Now the parent can pick a more appropriate school.
Don’t bother btw. I’ll block anyone who is going to be that fucking worthless.
Is that a promise?
Uh, are you okay…?
Personal attack after you can’t win.
And yet you heard of them doing it to Stonehenge? And even a comic was made of it? Maybe angering people actually does give a farther reach.
Presence of some supreme creator may not be proven or disproven, but I think most of the anti-evolution stuff and similar things in most mainstream religions would face more questions when scientific temper improves.
And religions can evolve with this (or die from declining membership), as long as the leaders don’t stick to the “These actually scientifically proven facts are lies sent by the Devil” line.
Here’s a screencap:
You forgot wrapped up in culture wars.
Security theater, just like signatures for credit cards. At least they’re doing away with those.
The fact that he did a “prove me wrong” instead of a “here’s the proof” tells me, at minimum, had a suspicion that the proof had no merit.
I’m glad to hear that, and glad you had someone to push you through as well! Thanks for sharing!
I feel the same way.
There was an article about a boarding school that gave all the students dumb phones. I wonder if that’s an option, like schools issue kids computers.
When I first started my career, I was in a new town and looking for friends. I met this guy, and we started hanging out. It was cool, we had a lot in common and spent many days playing video games together and hanging out at the local stores. He told me his anxiety was so bad that he dropped out of high school, didn’t have any other friends, was still living with his parents, and couldn’t really hold down a job. We had some deep conversations about these things, trying to work through the whys and things he could do to get over them. One day, he told me that he really appreciated our friendship, and that it helped him get over some of his anxiety and basically feel worthy as a person. He eventually started hanging out with other people too, and even got a girlfriend. Eventually, he went on to get his GED (turns out it was easy, he just didn’t have the confidence to try), is going to community college, moved out of his parents, and has a job he enjoys in his field of study already. I moved away, and we don’t talk as much as we used to, but last I heard he was doing great. I don’t feel like I did much, just hanging out with a friend, but I’m glad I was a part of getting his life moving in the right direction.
Thanks, you were the only one to tell me! 07 fellow leftist.
And If you don’t mind, I’d like to take a moment to try to start a new tradition:
Each year on your Fediverse cake day, in response to the first person who wishes you happy cake day, you must tell the story of how you came to be here in the Fediverse. Here is mine:
This is my first Cake Day as I started a year ago when I joined Lemmy.world and Kbin and Mastodon all at the same time. I left from Reddit after the AMA with u/spez. I knew at that point he wasn’t relenting on the third-party apps and the loss of access for me personally, but mostly for the deaf and blind community, showed me that the CEO had no intention of putting accessibility over profit. I was an Apollo user and I was looking for an alternative while also browsing Reddit - using them as a resource, as I always had - and I was seeing censorship abound. Reddit was blocking mentions of alternative sites, blocking discussion about Spez, and the subs were rising up. I used those last few months of Apollo to help with the protests (John Oliver in /pics) and watched the proletariat attack the bourgeoisie for the rights of the people.
Then I started going full fediverse, posting Pokémon Cards on Kbin in a lovely group with three people in which I hope to return to some day when life settles. But Lemmy had the quantity and quality I was looking for. I joined .world at first because I didn’t know what was best, but switched to Midwest.social when .world blocked Hexbear. Went from pc to phone when the apps came out. Went from Memmy to Thunder because Thunder supported Hexbears stickers! And here I am, one year later!
