Its embarrassing how many grown ass adults live in these fantasies where people work for some nonsense like the artificial cultures oligarchs manufacture over survival.

Dumbass CEO of Anthropic thinks people should work for the "corporate mission" over survival.

This *absolutely fucking sucks* to post, but I'm doing what I can ❤️‍🩹 TL;DR: My employer denied my accommodations & gave me no choice but to go on an unexpected leave, which impacts my finances hard. If you have the ability to & are comfortable, I'd appreciate it if y'all could donate something 🙏

Huge ass wall of text explaining what's going on; highlights:

"I'm Myr, I'm 29 and I was recently denied accommodations needed to perform my job. Instead, my work place "gave me the choice" to accept a 2-3 week leave to replace it. Because of the nature of the situation I am in (either take the leave right now, or continue to try and force my body to work 40 hour work weeks, which I haven't been able to complete for months now), I had to take the leave while my PCP advocates for my accommodations under the ADA. The day after my accommodations were rejected was the day I had to make the decision to go on leave, as said decision was on a time crunch. So going on leave was abrupt and unplanned, hitting my spouse & I financially. 

Whatever is going on with my health is disabling & significant enough to disrupt my work & personal life. It causes orthostatic intolerance & hypotension, and finding the cause of it is difficult & time-consuming; it's not something that's easily diagnosed and can come from different sources. What I've been advocating for is a reduced schedule, which would allow me to pace & create some more stability with my energy & income, but I'm doing what I can to work with my employer with this. This entire months-long battle has become a chaotic rollercoaster managing my symptoms, inconsistent income and work schedule, and mental health strain I cannot begin to describe. 

This is where y'all come in! If you're able to throw anything our way- literally anything & everything helps right now, as it'll all go to our bills & living expenses while we do our best to get through these next weeks and I hopefully get the accommodations needed in order to excel in my work place. I don't know what will happen as technically the only approved "accommodation" is the leave I'm currently on, but I'm in constant communication with all parties involved and hope for the best.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, take care of each other and yourselves. <3 "CashApp QR code; the tag is $myraph

The concept of spoilers exists because of other people. If your attitude is "well it isn't a spoiler because this is a reboot of a thing that's been told already" please consider that people younger than you exist and the thing you already saw is entirely new to them. It's not about what YOU know.

What... do carnivores usually eat in furry universes? Are herbivores an oppressed minority that gets killed for food? I can't imagine they would eat anyone who died of illness. Maybe old age? Are there regular animals too? Do sapient herbivores protest against eating them???

Today I learned that baby cranes are called "colts" because their legs are so long and they can run around like idiots shortly after hatching. This is delightful, I enjoy knowing this.
