Firstly, firing an employee for simply taking sick leave is wrongful termination. Secondly, busy or not, having a contagious person come into work to get the rest of your staff and customers sick is just bad business. Management needs to learn how to be better at their jobs.

Not trying to be alarmist, but you should probably be paying close attention to what's happening with H5N1. Protect yourselves as best you can. No one else will.

Farm workers are harvesting broccolini in a Watsonville field. They cut it from the plant, toss it in their backpacks & dump it when they reach the end of the row. The backpack is heavy & uncomfortable. Workers often pad it or wear a weight belt to protect their back. #WeFeedYou

Treating people as only a way to get what you want cheaply allows corporations and capitalism to continue their stranglehold on life as a simple commodity. We are all more than the labor we can produce. We all have worth, whether we labor or not.

Americans: the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT THING you can do for Gaza right now is call your Senators every single day until November 21 and ask them to co-sign Senate Joint Resolutions 111-116, which would block the 11 BILLION DOLLARS of military aid we’re about to send Israel. USCPR has scripts.

The scene is filled with dynamic energy, showcasing clients getting their hair braided, styled, and flat ironed. The space is warmly lit, with salon tools and hair products visible on counters and shelves. In the background, a stylist sweeps the floor while a child sits under the dryer.

Aye, I have a PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) autistic profile. I call it Persuasive Demand forAutonomy. Don’t demand me to do shit including follow you, it just makes me not want to follow
A PDA profile PDF
A PDA profile of autism means that individuals share autistic characteristics ...
PDA
• currently defined as "persistent difficulties with social communication and social interaction" and "restricted and repetitive patterns of behaviour, activities or interests"
• and often including a different sensory experience in relation to sight, smell, taste, touch, hearing, and internal senses such as hunger or thirst ...
and in addition have many of the 'key features' of a PDA profile:
• resisting and avoiding the ordinary demands of life
• using 'social' strategies as part of the avoidance (see "How are demands avoided?" on page 7)
• appearing sociable, but lacking some understanding - individuals may appear more sociably 'able than one might expect (with, for instance, more 'conventional' use of eye contact or conversational skills) but this may mask underlying differences/difficulties in social interaction and communication
• experiencing intense emotions and mood swings
• appearing comfortable in role play, pretence and fantasy - sometimes to an extreme extent
• focusing intently, often on other people - with PDA,
"repetitive or restrictive interests" are often social in nature, relating to real or fictional people
a need for control which is often driven by anxiety or an automatic 'threat response in the face of demands
• a tendency not to respond to conventional approaches in support, parenting or teaching.The graphic showing the PANDA  approach for PDA profile

Wear a damn mask in public. Care about, fight for, model cleaner air. Don't hold a single organizing event that people would be prevented from attending due to concerns about covid. That's the work. That's what confronting disinformation head-on will look like. Confronting *all* of it.
