it’s this part right here! the old guys are staying around too long— it’s depressing job prospects all down the ladder! the author is upset that all SW positions are filled by women and people of color, but folks in those positions no longer have the chance to advance like the people above them did!
This was systematic discrimination, documented in writing, implemented without consequence. It’s striking how casual it all was. “Chicago Fire—the UL [upper level] can be [anyone], but we need diverse SWs [staff writers].” As in other industries, upper-level positions—writers with experience and credits—could still be filled by white men. But the entry-level jobs, the staff writer and co-producer positions that Matt and thousands of other aspiring writers were competing for, were reserved for others.

this The Atlantic?
The July/Aug 2018 cover of The Atlantic Monthly focusing on a trans kids in a negative light. What should’ve been the top story was “We’re Not Prepared for the Next Pandemic,” and yet… Anyway, it’s a red filtered photo of a trans boy with the words: Your Child Says She's Trans. She Wants Hormones and Surgery. She's 13. BY JESSE SIGNAL

Lindsey Bluth (a blonde woman with long hair and bangs) and Tobias Fünke (a bald, bespeckled, mustachioed man) are sitting next to each other having a conversation in three panels. Panel one, Lindsey: Well, did it work for those people? Panel two, Tobias: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but… Panel three, Tobias: but it might work for us.

but wait, there’s more!
our boy Leo with another banger copypasta from the same thread: I inform and communicate with all my partners, that not only do i fuck around and expect safe sex practices because I dont like condoms, but also that I prefer a breeding kink but will absolutely not take care of the kid. I stand by that and respect women if they decline. A lot havent declined.

a video still of a woman with long brown hair and a black shortsleeved dress making weird hand gestures because she learned from a young age that talking with your hands is “too ethnic.” her caption reads “they ran a false sob story of a convicted murderer.” at the very bottom is the chyron from “Starship Troopers” reading “WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW MORE?”

Charles Entertainment Cheese, a giant gray anthropomorphic mouse wearing a purple and green tshirt with jeans is being arrested and taken out of a restaurant by a cop who’s taking this all way too seriously. There is a “Parental Advisory” label because it looks like an album cover tbh.

today feels like the latter
two skeets first, a quoted post reading “Migrants at a Miami immigration jail were shackled with their hands tied behind their backs and made to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs”, per a report from Human Rights Watch” second, Gail’s skeet about Wolverine kicking the shit out of everybody

But I get down a lot as l've never dated or had sex with any girl that wasn't an escort. There is no social validation that comes from having sex with escorts even if you are good at sex, good looking and [highlighted in yellow] some escorts find you very attractive.
