for 8 hours all day every day. are actors more productive? working in a hot sweaty kitchen, dealing with burns and shitty customers is a lot more draining than you think.
Honestly, the whole Tumblr flagging debacle reminds me of nothing so much as the official White Wolf forums back in the 1990s, whose automatic profanity filters were so overzealous that they ended up censoring terminology from some of their own games.
(For the uninitiated, the starkest example was probably the filter that automatically converted “ass” to “butt”, including when the string A-S-S appeared as part of another word. The trouble is that White Wolf’s most popular game, Vampire: The Masquerade, included in its lore a prominent vampire clan called the Assamites, who stock-in-trade was assassination. Under the forum’s profanity filter, players were reduced to referring to them as the Buttamites, and their missions as – you guessed it – buttbuttinations.)
It’s been three years since DashCon and Fyre Fest has happened. Meaning that in accordance to the Rule of Three, in another three years, a third and final gathering catastrophe will occur with its own symbol joining the ball pit and concierge stand to create an ungodly trifecta.
I cannot wait.
This is my first real fandom that ive gotten into bc i just love space a lot and cats so much but now its a heaping pill of garbage and it keeps getting w o r s e
(writing this 1/10/19) hey. I’m nathan, I am a transgender man and I’m kinda mega super fucked, here’s what happened:
I was told! time and time again, for the last year, that outpatient surgery was covered, after my deductible, fully by my insurance, top surgery! is an outpatient surgery! I even got the letter of readiness from a therapist, and ultrasound proof that I have painful breast tumors, full ride right? totally covered right?
WRONG
totally last minute I recieve this letter most importantly stating :
Putting my nips back on is too “cosmetic” to be covered !
how much do they want for my nips? about 3,500$ , and separately they want 575$ deductible for the surgery meaning
I need at least $4,000
It’s the wealthy ceo (lets have c in CEO state for cis shall we) plan to not have to pay for a surgery at all, I mean 4k would deter any poor trans person from getting a life saving surgery, I mean I don’t go to the ER for dislocations over the just 100$ fee, 4k ? I’m fucked.
I have less than two months to get the money to pay this. I need this by March. So please spread the word
I know I won’t be eating any crayons for you but Please help me if you can by donating to:
cashme $futurebeefcake
if you do not have a cashme you can make one with the code GFCQMLW and we both get $5 or my paypal is
paypal futurebeefcake@gmail.com
finally I want to say that if my appeal goes through and it ends up being covered last minute, (press x for doubt) I will not pocket these donations I will instead be donating them to a charity benefiting trans people like me, also I will be commenting on the progess of the donations in the notes at the end of each day, thank you
