ME TOO.
Cyclists who ride on the sidewalk are a pox. I’m always tempted to shove them over when they ride by. I also get really angry at cyclists who don’t wear helmets.
The woooorst are the bikers who come flying down the sidewalk or around corners when there’s a goddamn bike lane RIGHT THERE. I know #notallcyclists etc. but there are some real dicks who give everyone a bad name.
I’m well versed in physics and why cyclists don’t want to come to a complete, or even near, stop. And guess what?
I live in a very bike-intensive city and almost hit a bike once with my car - it was night, they had no lights or reflective gear, and they ran a red light. WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Drives me up the wall. I’m cool with sharing the road, PROVIDED WE ALL OBEY THE SAME RULES.
Truth.
As a DC pedestrian, I’m now more fearful of cyclists than drivers...it’s a mess.
Okay but also bike lanes should be banned in general because cyclists should be banned because they never FUCKING FOLLOW THE RULES OF THE GODDAMN ROAD YOU CANNOT RUN A FUCKING STOP SIGN I AM IN A GIANT METAL TWO TON CYCLIST KILLING MACHINE YOU GODDAMN MORONS
For me it comes down to one point: Did the author specifically ask whether she could bring the baby? If she did, then sentencing her to a breastfeeding room without warning is a jerk move on the part of the organizer, no question.
This is my reaction as well. My problem with bringing infants into the workplace is due solely to noise. Babies make noise: happy noise, upset noise, healthy baby noise. Why am I a bad feminist if I can’t concentrate around this and ask that it not be in my workspace?
I don’t have kids yet. Let’s get that out of the way. While reading this article I kept noticing how the author kept mentioning how quiet her baby was. That’s great, -if it’s true. But let’s not forget that we all tend to be biased towards our own. People never think their dogs will bite someone, or that their kids…
Look, I love babies. I like moms (some of them). But if I was invited to speak in from of hundreds of people, do a book signing, and participate in an intense professional conference, I’d arrange for child care for the day. No, you can’t bring your baby to work, sorry. That includes adjunct teaching. Advocate for…
Elephant seals don’t have tusks! They are called elephant seals because the males have big floppy proboscises sort of like an elephant’s trunk but shorter. Walruses have tusks on males and females.
According to one of my Grandpa’s favorite jokes, it’s D (this is the closest version I could find with the googles):
Yeah, I have to fight the urge to slap some oxygen on her and start CPR.
terrifying.
Yeah this would never happen somewhere peaceful, like the Bay Area.
Speaking as someone who lives but a couple hundred miles from Saudi Arabia, and knows many Filipinos, Indonesians, malaysians, etc. Who live and work in Dubai.... never, ever, ever set foot for any reason in Saudi Arabia. You enter, you are a slave. Period. Your life is not yours. Do not go. No matter how bad it is at…
