not to generalize but there's a very specific type of really loud and aggressive middle aged usually-white woman who collects funko pops and is married to an ex-military guy & never shuts up about his duty tours and is an Adult Disney Enjoyer who likes the live action remakes and who obviously votes deep red that i did not think I would have to encounter, much less share a coffee pot with, so often in nonprofit social service work and yet.

#the political spectrum at my work is shocking considering what we do but the variance between departments is itself staggering #im luckily in a department unto myself for the most part and have a lil office so i get to not interact most of the time #but to get to my boss or the keurig i have to go through the finance department and whoo boy #every time they really are always saying some shit #like at every job ive ever worked ive known someone like this its very concerning as a sample size of the population #but here in finance there are not one but two of them #and theyre slowly but surely making each other worse & pulling the rest of the epartment into their orbit bc one is the director #🙃

epart four of just things at this point but it's all Yvonne in this episode but I think it's obvious that I need to re-listen to the podcast but whatever

Joshua got her this as a gift after they got him that Alpha Male shirt

Joshua probably also got her this one

I don't even have a comment on this one. they just radiate the same vibes as this shirt and I've got no clue how to describe it.

I have no clue on how to end this one she's too silly for me to handle

FIRST YVONNE CONTENT SINCE THE GREAT ASKBOX CLOSURE OF 23

Ah sorry, I missed th epart of the post where she said she hoped I got crushed by a grand piano hanging by a rope and i came out of the lid, battered and with little birds circling around a bump in my head and when i smiled, all of my teeth were replaced by piano keys arranged in the same manner they'd normally be in a piano but after a second one of the keys fell off and then circle wipe effect into the next scene

what's something you would say to a person that asks you why you still take epart in hp fandom despite the big TERF of it all? I have my own arguments on why (not letting an author's actions dictate my tastes, that sort of thing), but I've always wanted to know other people's reasoning to not just jump ship post-2018

also, on a lighthearted note: what's your current favourite fanwork that you think encapsulates the beauty of this corner of ours?

much love! x

this is tough. it just is! i do not agree with jkr and her weird code of morals/politics and i think she has done real damage with her words and her money.

i suppose for me that's where i draw the line? with money? i don't spend my money on jkr content anymore. i haven't seen any of the fantastic beast movies, i haven't bought any of the special edition books or any of her new (not hp) books. i haven't even streamed the hp movies 20th reunion because i just don't want to support her monetarily.

i consider the hp story and characters ours now. there is true freedom in death to the author and i think we as fans (and me as a fan who was shaped drastically by this series as a child) can take ownership of what we love and tell her to fuck the hell off.

i also find tremendous solace in spite. i like to think she would hate everything i read and post on ao3 and that feels like a little win in my book.

ask me anything!!

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

February 25, 2023

Heather Cox Richardson

Yesterday, the chair of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, James Comer (R-KY), the chair of the Subcommittee on Government Operations and the Federal Workforce, Pete Sessions (R-TX), the chair of the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs, Glenn Grothman (R-WI), and the chair of the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation, Nancy Mace (R-SC), along with seventeen other extremist Republican members of Congress, sent a letter to Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg.

The letter complained that the federal government had not responded effectively to the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. It referred to a preliminary report by the “D[epartment] O[f] T[ransportation]’s National Transportation Safety Board” and demanded Buttigieg provide “[a]ll documents and communications regarding NTSB’s progress on the cause of the derailment.”

The NTSB is not part of the Department of Transportation.

The NTSB is part of the government, but it is an independent agency, charged with investigating civil transportation accidents. It is also in charge of investigating the release of hazardous materials during transportation. Congress deliberately set it apart from the Department of Transportation to guarantee unbiased investigations.

A 150-car Norfolk Southern train was traveling from Illinois to Pennsylvania on Friday, February 3, when 38 cars derailed at about 8:54 p.m. Those cars caught fire, and 12 cars that had not derailed also caught fire. The NTSB responded immediately and, the following afternoon, held a press conference explaining that it was collecting perishable evidence to determine what caused the accident and to make appropriate recommendations for safety upgrades if such recommendations were warranted.

Nine NTSB investigators and four engineers in labs have been involved in the accident review. They have reviewed footage of the derailment, interviewed train staff, and examined the train event recorder, a device similar to a black box on an airplane.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the federal agency in charge of responding to the release of hazardous substances and leading cleanup efforts. Its personnel were at the site by 2:00 on Saturday morning, about five hours after the derailment. It has had six staff and 16 contractors on the ground since the crash.

The Department of Transportation has two agencies that are appropriate to deploy for this kind of an accident. The Federal Railroad Administration enforces safety regulations for railways, and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration enforces safety regulations for hazardous materials. Those agencies have deployed ten staff to help NTSB investigate. They will figure out if Norfolk Southern ignored any regulations.

This letter is not about the derailment itself, or the dangers, or the cleanup, or even the history of deregulation.

It is about the careful way generations of Americans have tried to create a government that could support progress while also guaranteeing oversight, and it is about the lawmakers who wrote the letter to Secretary Buttigieg.

Either 21 Republican lawmakers charged with oversight of our government don’t know how the government works and didn’t care to find out, or they are deliberately misleading their loyalists.

We are becoming accustomed to certain Republican lawmakers saying ridiculous things. Just two days ago, in a now-deleted tweet, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) claimed that “6 billion” people have illegally crossed the border since President Biden took office. (There are slightly fewer than 8 billion people on earth.)

But the letter these representatives wrote shows such a profound disinterest in how our government works that it suggests these representatives have no real interest in the job they were sent to Washington to do, and instead are weaponizing the government to mislead their followers into believing things that are not true.

Buttiegieg responded: “I am alarmed to learn that the Chair of the House Oversight Committee thinks that the NTSB is part of our Department. NTSB is independent (and with good reason). Still, of course, we will fully review this and respond appropriately.”
