love when men cry about body hair bc "it's hygiene" and yet 15% of cis men leave the bathroom without washing their hands at all and an additional 35% only just wet their hands without using soap. that is nearly half of all men. that means statistically you have probably shaken hands with or been in direct contact with one of these people.

love when men say that women "only want money" when it turns out that even in equal-earning homes, women are actually adding caregiver burdens and housework from previous years, whereas men have been expanding leisure time and hobbies. in equal-earning households, men spend an average of 3.5 hours extra in leisure time per week, which is 182 hours per year - a little over a week of paid vacation time that the other partner does not receive. kinda sounds like he wants her money.

love that men have decided women are frail and weak and annoying when we scream in surprise but it turns out it's actually women who are more reliable in an emergency because men need to be convinced to actually take action and respond to the threat. like, actually, for-real: men experience such a strong sense of pride about their pre-supposed abilities that it gets them and their families killed. they are so used to dismissing women that it literally kills them.

love it. told my father this and he said there's lies, damned lies, and statistics. a year ago i tried to get him to evacuate the house during a flash flood. he ignored me and got injured. he has told me, laughing, that he never washes his hands. he has said in the last week that women are just happier when we're cooking or cleaning.

maybe i'm overly nostalgic. but it didn't used to feel so fucking bleak. it used to feel like at least a little shameful to consider women to be sheep. it just feels like the earth is round and we are still having conversations about it being flat - except these conversations are about the most obvious forms of patriarchy. like, we know about this stuff. we've known since well before the 50's.

recently andrew tate tried to justify cheating on his partner as being the "male prerogative." i don't know what the prerogative for the rest of us would be. just sitting at home, watching the slow erosion of our humanity.

#writeblr #warm up #ps edited so it is more clear where “half” of men is coming from: #15% literally don't even touch water #an ADDITIONAL 35% ''wash'' by just running their hands under water WITHOUT SOAP #15+35 =50% #like that is not washing ur hands. go back and use soap #btw the numbers for women are 4% never washing and 15% ''just water'' #which is still gross but like. sooo much better yikes #ps i know we're all gay on this site but watching ppl ''correct'' my math on this has been wild #i have a learning disability im genuinely bad at math so i check EVERY time someone corrects me #but no they're just confidently wrong..... #182 hours is a week babes. 182/24 (number of hours in a day) is ~7.6 #that's where i got that number from. also from rent we know there's 168 hours in a week. #ALSO btw if u read this and ur response is ''men are also struggling rn tho'' like babe you missed the point of it tho #this doesn't even make fun of men it's legit just pointing out that bigotry against women isn't founded #in anything men actually CARE about . like they don't actually CARE about ''being clean'' when they make fun of armpit hair #or they would be WASHING THEIR HANDS. #men pretend to be rollin' in cash and Apex Predators and instead they are trained to be lazy and unwilling to act in emergencies #i have never and will never make fun of men for asking for more support on important topics like DV and mental health. #this is so clearly not about men; it's about how common just being plainly misogynistic has become. #like they don't try to hide it anymore.

Emergency management as a field has this kind of odd relationship with policing, like in every training it’s all “cops are the worst at incident management,” “cops are only good at sitting in cars eating donuts” but then you realize most of the course instructors are themselves ex-cops... I think a lot of emergency management ppl imagine themselves as like more-competent cops or something but many of the same factors leading to terrible outcomes with policing are also contributing to terrible emergency response outcomes (with natural & unnatural disasters alike)

Like frankly emergency management shares a great deal with policing in terms of its approaches and priorities for incident response, not to mention the general contempt for “the public” at large, and especially for the idea that regular people might be able to contribute to - let alone do better at - local crisis response rather than staying in their lane and obeying the orders of whoever's in charge

#posts brought to you by my accidental fixation on ics which lands me in hm. interesting situations that i am neither qualified for nor enjoy #like to be clear i do not work in emergency management proper but they send public health response ppl to the same trainings #to sit there just like 😶😶 #'sensing a possible gulf in values here folks' #emergency management #policing #skravler

7. Starved

Angst, [poor] medical treatment of minor injuries, referenced torture, implied starvation, implied past noncon, implied military setting

AU Masterpost / Previous / Next

Harrison should have at least been a little worried about being handed food by the man who had tortured him and his friends. But the sight of a prepackaged, slightly battered sleeve of saltines was like manna in the desert, and he was nothing but grateful.

The Wolf sat opposite of him, back against the door to what Harrison assumed was his own room (his personal hell from what Harrison had seen). Between his gluttonous mouthfuls of sawdust salt and tacky bread, Harrison eyed the Wolf as he tended to his own injuries.

Tended might have been too strong a word.

He slathered antiseptic over his burned shoulder, used butterfly stitches to roughly align a jagged slash across his ribs, and while he took out the gauze, he only regarded it for a few moments before returning it. The cuts raking over his arms, his legs, his back - the Wolf was leaving most of his wounds untreated.

“You should really wrap that.” Harrison was almost embarrassed to speak with his mouth full. Almost. He swallowed before continuing. “Your arm - it's still bleeding quite a bit.”

The Wolf looked at him for a moment, brow pinched in thought. Like the suggestion was a test he could fail.

“I’ll need the gauze more later.” He finally settled on, words measured and slow. Harrison felt a bit guilty for speaking exclusively in English - but he hadn’t asked the Wolf follow in suit, so he didn’t feel that guilty. Plus, the language was clearly more comfortable in his mouth than his perfect but stilted Arabic.

Right. The whole, facade problem Harrison had left in the supply closet behind himself.

“Thanks for the food.” He wasn’t sure how to open an interrogation, despite how many he had partaken in recently. “Now, what the fuck is going on here?”

The Wolf wasn’t phased, not that he let Harrison see, but he did drop his eyes to the medkit as he closed it.

“I don’t know. I'm - my handler would know.”

“Your handler?” For a guy so insistent that he worked alone, the Wolf’s confirming nod was a surprise. “Who is he? Is he - do you know where we are?”

“He’s my handler. You’ve met him - gold tooth.” Harrison involuntarily shuddered at the memory of that particular torturer. He had worked on the last three for weeks before the Wolf showed up. He had kept Harrison isolated in the Box while he tortured Merrick and Elias. “We’re underground, in a desert. I, they don’t - I haven’t gone up in a long time.”

The Wolf’s voice grew tight, fidgeting fingers clasping and unclasping the medkit.

“Is your handler American?” It felt like a betrayal to have the same home as Goldtooth - as that lecherous, blood thirsty son of a bitch. Maybe it was a betrayal, Harrison’s teeth bared as the Wolf nodded slowly.

American. American brands in the supply closet. American mass produced clothes on his back. Probably American sand above it head.

(Had they even ever left Nevada?)

The laugh that barked from his lips was laced with hysteria, choked down with rage as tears slipped from his eyes. The Wolf had gone still and tense - afraid of the half starved, half hysterical man across from him.

Harrison managed to quell his outburst as the Wolf stood, wincing as his legs pushed him off the concrete floor. The distant, surrealness of the revelation was brought into painfully clear focus as the Wolf opened the door to his room. He rummaged in the desk for a moment, and Harrison expected him to leave with the same stiff terror he had when retrieving the food and medkit.

He didn’t expect the Wolf to look back at the mess of blood and bed sheets, swaying on unsteady feet with his back to the open door. Harrison wasn’t sure why he cared enough to call out.

“Wolf? Are you - hey, Wolf.” Harrison scrambled to his feet, equally unsteady in his own right as he licked salt and crumbs from his fingers. He nearly crossed the hallway before the Wolf spun around abruptly, marching to the supply closet - his expression painfully blank.

“Hey - what, slow down - what are you doing?” Harrison felt a tremor of fear rattle in his chest as he blocked the doorway, not letting the Wolf pass with his armfuls of bleach and peroxide.

“Cleaning.” There was a cold detachment from the word as he spoke it, something mechanical. Like he had said it the same way a hundred times before.

“Why? Let’s just go - " Harrison stepped aside, too afraid to continue impeding the Wolf’s mission. The Wolf didn’t respond, dropping harshly to his knees and setting out the supplies in neatly organized rows.

Harrison felt a sigh shudder through him, disgusted by the aching pity still clawing up his throat. He could just leave without him - he didn’t owe the Wolf anything (not anything pleasant).

Then why couldn’t he force his legs to step away, up those infinite stairs to heaven, to freedom?

"I really must respectfully protest, Your Reverence," said the acolyte. "We have practiced for just such an emergency as--"

"Yeah, I know all about practicing procedures for emergencies," said Lu-Tze. "And there's always something missing."

"Ridiculous! We take great pains to--"

"You always leave out the damn emergency."

I think being autistic does actually make me inherently better at animal handling because I, too, have been yelled at for growling and biting when everyone ignored my previous warnings and didn’t set clear boundaries

#my roommate’s always like Wow my dog responds so well to you! #yeah bitch I set clear expectations and consistent rules and I don’t yell at him #and I pay attention to his body language and the rituals he creates #literally it’s not that hard #ya she got him to train as a service dog LMAO #she doesn’t have the money to send him to a trainer and the time to do it herself #when I recommended she pull from the emergency fund (because his reactivity is getting BAD to the point of borderline aggression) #she was like ‘who has an emergency fund for their pet :P’ #BITCH IDK IM NOT MAKING $30+ AN HOUR WITH A 401K AND FULL INSURANCE PACKAGE #THATS WHY I DONT HAVE A DOG?? #just an in-the-works shrimp tank that I do in fact have a small emergency fund for #it’s your job as a responsible pet owner to attend to your animal’s needs. if you can’t do that you shouldn’t have a pet #and she fucking undermines the training /I/ give #like I was teaching him to find a toy when someone knocks at the door to redirect his energy and prevent barking #but now whenever he barks at the door she YELLS at him to find his toy #so I had to stop training that area because like. what the fuck am I gonna do??? #notably I am the only person who can consistently get him to stop barking at the door #completely unrelated to the fact that I’m calm and give him treats when he stops barking #and comes over to me and chills out #goddddd I hate her she shouldn’t have any animals ever #anyways what was I saying. #oh yeah I’m the only person in this apartment who should ever be allowed to have a dog #this is also why I dont plan to get one! I recognize that the college life is simply incompatible with responsible dog ownership #(unless EVERYONE is REALLY onboard which. lmao good luck.)

Is it just me or do some of her vertebrae look close together?

I know very little about IVDD and similar but maybe someone more knowledgeable can chime in. Maybe it’s just the positioning but that is the area on her back that she seems kind of sore and if it is IVDD it could explain the incontinence.

I hate the idea that a company should always be in growth mode and that mass layoffs, sorry, restructuring is something that should happen at set intervals. Steady profits are still profits and people will be less inclined to work or get invested in their work if they have to keep an emergency backup job in the back pocket no matter how good their work is.

To say nothing about how it limits social bonding 'cause there's only so many times you can go through seeing friends lose their job and have survivor's guilt or vice versa, or how since it's a known occurrence it means you know you're competing directly with friends.

Of course that's the point, along with the business idea that employment should follow the Pareto Principle even though it's pop science, demonstrably false, and an intentional misunderstanding of what was really an observation of coincidences.

And of course that means you're constantly shedding people who have knowledge, skills, and training to "streamline" things or to "increase production speed" when overworking already overworked employees and throwing greenhorns into it does the exact opposite.

It's not about making the company better, it's about making unionizing harder, paying people less, making it seem like the company is doing something, and giving the execs and shareholders more money.

While overworking those who kept their jobs.

#and how many times has a company bragged about how much money it made #only to turn around and fire a bunch of workers (but never execs)? #maybe even given themselves massive congratulatory bonuses to celebrate their 'hard work' #which was actually the work of dozens/hundreds of others #and iirc the pareto principle observation varied wildly from something like 5% to 50% #but it got turned into 80-20 for round numbers and because who cares about nuance #just sell it as 20% of your employees are slacking no matter what so you should fire 20% regularly #and of course there's the little thing known as fiduciary responsibility that's been warped by capitalism #so execs prioritize shareholders above all else #and of course the same companies often complain how no one wants to work anymore #or laments how people right out of college don't have a decade plus of experience with the company's proprietary system(s) #and sometimes they try to sneak no compete clauses into employment contracts so if someone is fired #they may have to stay out of the industry they have experience/training/degrees/interest in #no that such clauses can be enforced for something like this but it's a threat and warning to further cow workers #and a company bragging about making billions in profit and has a whole legal department #can easily afford the time and legal fees compared to someone who just lost their job even if they know they're going to lose #corporations literally have money earmarked in their budget for fines and settlements #which should tell you all you need to know about how much they care about laws #it's not even an emergency 'we fucked up' fund #it's 'this is the cost of business because it's cheaper to pay the fine and do what we want' fund
