It's a good thing that I'm not in charge of scripts because Shep would blurt out intrusive thoughts as renegade/paragon prompts. Also, enjoy meeting Morticia Shepard: Spacer, Infiltrator, all-around good egg

Scraplets don’t eat organics. Can a human set up an extermination business on Cybertron or would there be red tape involved?
Dear Extermination Entrepreneur,
As the head of the Autobot Civilian Bureaucracy, Red Tape is indeed the bot you'd want to see about getting a business license.

red tape and the pieces of youth
chapter three: emergency exits and the distance below
By the time there’s a knock at Phoenix’s door, Miles has been sent out multiple times for boxes, bags, and pizza. At this point, it would be easier if Phoenix just told him to get lost for the day. Miles had tried to pay for the pizza himself, but Phoenix had stared him down until Miles took the cash. And not without a reminder of how much Miles was doing for Trucy and how Phoenix had to be able to pull his own weight. Miles bought his own food. Phoenix can’t complain about that. (He probably could. The man can complain about anything, and Miles almost wants to see him try. To feel that rush from arguing against him again, as if they’re standing across a courtroom again, as if Phoenix’s badge hasn’t been—)

Tumblr media
they're putting tape over their eyes so they don't fall asleep again
Tumblr media
and they don't want to sleep because they have to pick faith. because faith is to be awake and to be awake is for us to think and for us to think is to be alive...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so they're loosing faith

your friends saying it is okay doesnt mean it is. it is equal to say my homo friends gave me the pass to be homophobic. your logic is invalid
no no no, you see, my friend is the king of heterosexuals.
he told me I had the h word pass and that all of his subjects had to follow his commands.
I might not be heterosexual myself but I have the rights and authorities bestowed upon one.
I'm basically one of you. legally.

Biden's intent to means-test student debt reduction—violating a promise to make student debt reduction universal—threatens Democrats' election chances in 2022, says Cory Doctorow.
Democrats campaign against universal benefits, claiming they'd be free even to the wealthy. But if college was free in America, only 1.4% of the benefit would accrue to rich kids.
"College debt relief is hugely popular, especially among the voter base that Dems will have to turn out to avoid catastrophic losses in the 2022 mid-terms ," people with fewer economic resources. College debt relief could help close the racial wealth gap and build the Black middle class.
College debt relief won't much benefit the rich because the rich mostly don't pay for college by taking out student loans. If forgiving student debt helped the rich, politicians would have done it already.
Means-testing generates red tape. The rich can always hire people to get around red tape. It's the middle class and poor that get tangled up in red tape to the point of paralysis.
I took out student loans to go to college, I paid them off, and I support forgiving student debt today.

Twenty one pilots - Red tapes
Revisiting the lore to prep myself for what's coming made me realize I need a book. I need the twenty one pilots lore to be a book with the album names as chapters and from Clancy's pov. The whole story of Dema is nothing short of a cinematic saga and I need it as a book.

Bureaucracy is the woooorst
Like, I know on the grand scale the alternative is actually terrible. The alternative to credit scores, for example, is getting a loan based on whether you can convince the bank manager you're good for it, which you have to do by being a white man.
But right now I need to fill out an I9, which means the company wants proof of my identity and citizenship/work-eligibility. I can do this with my ID + Social security card, or a non-expired passport (there are other options, for people with very different lives from mine, like a tribal identity document or immigration paperwork, but those options are less relevant to me). My passport is expired. It expired about 6 weeks ago, so if HR had its shit together when my boss *wanted* to hire me, or had even started the process earlier with intent that I wouldn't be hired until now, I'd've been fine. Even expedited, this will take about about 6 weeks to replace. I do not know where my social security card is. Even the social security administration, as I try to replace it, is like "are you sure you need to replace it? it's rare you actually need the card" and, yeah, I know, I haven't needed it in at least 11 years, that's why I've never bothered to replace it. I am having trouble replacing it because the social security website keeps telling me it cannot confirm my address. I have a suspicion of something to try, but I can't retry until tonight because I'm locked out after multiple failures. If I cannot replace it online, replacing it in person for some reason requires my birth certificate, which best-case scenario is in a file at my parents' house (my parents are traveling and will be for another week) but worst case is in [birth state 10+ hours away]. Actually worst-case scenario is that it's also lost, because my mom is sure I should have it. If I do get past that hurdle and get it replaced online or in person, this will take 2 weeks to replace.
But the most frustrating, stupid thing about this IMO is that I am going back to my previous employer. My previous employer who I left ~14 months ago. My previous employer who gave me 2 and a half months of severance. My previous employer who, as a result, sent me a 2023 W2. My previous employer who is apparently just re-activating my employment, judging from my new employee ID number being the same as my old employee ID number.
My boss is gonna try to talk to a human in HR.

Red Tape is a divine comedy game where we play as an angel who finds himself in hell with no memory as to how or why. Forced to play along with the hopes of finding a way out, we must take on a demon form and integrate into the office life of Hell's management by completing tasks and earning promotions. Along the way we discover some hints of a conspiracy and discover that Hell might be dealing with more than the usual torture and suffering that you may find in your typical corporate job.
In our first episode we take on our new form, decide on a terrifying new demon name and go through orientation with Virgil.

red tape and the pieces of youth
chapter four: pinned under the weight
Phoenix doesn’t know how he has so much stuff. Or how it’s so disorganized. He thought he got rid of most of his unnecessary things when he moved out after college, but it quickly became apparent that he both didn’t clean out as much as he thought and that he accumulated much more than he thought. He didn’t think it would take even a day to pack. Miles hasn’t said it aloud yet, but Phoenix knows that he’s thinking ‘I told you so.’ It’s in the pointed looks he gets when asking Miles to put together another box. Miles has been relegated to folding boxes and researching adoption while the others pack. There’s no point in arguing that the others are allowed to help while he isn’t—Maya and Pearl have both half-lived here for years, and there’s something about Trucy’s packing skills that is both magical and slightly scary (and slightly sad).
