hi new followers, here’s where I’m posting from
An old bottling plant, made of tan brick, renovated into an office building. There’s a big vintage neon sign that says LABOR TEMPLE

We were able to get the first $400 amount immediately due covered on our own yesterday, but we will still need help with other bills that have accumulated. As well as upcoming bills while Dez applies for disability assistance. Everything is getting transfered to his name but he's not able to work.

"Light Industrial" as they used to call it will fuck you up. 12-hour days, rotating shifts, hot and poorly ventilated workspaces...bending forever.

If we want more people in the trades, we need (among other things) employers to bring back the concept of light work/light duty. And if a young person wants to make a career of it, they need to know exactly what it can mean for their body, and the vulnerabilities they face throughout their career

yep I was focusing on Building Trades but want to acknowledge that light industrial -- like nursing and even teaching -- are just as hard on the body in ways people tend to not think of. tl;dr work sucks

oh nothing, just dealing with several extremely frustrating issues with various Gen Xers in the Trades

Hee! It was one of my favorites as a teen. But the Speedy character was the magicalest of the Magical Negro trope, just utterly over the top

security is indeed terrible but they way I see it is, as soon as I am through, I am somebody else's problem and it is DELICIOUS

they should offer a paid service at airports where it's just a guy that holds your hand the second you step in the door and guides you around and makes sure you get to the right gate on time. and they rub your back gently and comfortingly if you get yelled at by security for being confused

I always felt that Speedy (in The Talisman) is who he imagined himself as if he were Black

"Let's do that hockey" -- hilarious, collaborative, aspirational, instant classic

"Let's do the fucking news" -- weird, makes everyone uncomfortable, pathetic

You can pick your own name but you do not always get to pick your nickname

every time I see a photo like this, I think "okay goober"

On the railroad, naming convention on the schedule is yr first two initials + last name, & the initials are often nickname fodder.

Spouse worked a shift with a C.M. Jones who said, "You'll hear guys on the radio call me Goober, but my real nickname is Cash Money." And spouse was like okay Goober
