I try to help small local businesses, I do. But I have to fire about half of them because my god people don’t come by basic human interactions easily. I have a woman now that I’ve known since the first won’t work. I need to get it over with.
I’m tempted to show you her texts to see how reckless she talks LOL She is good enough at the thing but I’m gonna read these texts on the wrong day and go slam off on her
She can’t stand me either because she basically texted me that she told her therapist about me. The therapist, in turn, recognized my name and told her blah blah about me. AND SHE TEXTED ME THIS INFORMATION. Lol
She is batshit

The gist seems to be that masturbating on work calls is unavoidable and totally understandable and during a U.S. election maybe even necessary.
As someone who thinks your employer should have no dominion over your household I am ethically committed to defending your right to masturbate in your own home under any conditions.

I think I did this in 2010 when everyone said I was an alarmist and should just be nice to trolls.

There is undoubtedly a link between white poverty and white identity crisis but there are a couple problems here. First, there is the rather gross subjective assessment of this person’s home.
What is supposed to be so dismaying about it exactly? It’s a house...on a rural road. A lot of people live that way (and not all of them are white) and most of them don’t turn into terrorists.
And there is actually a lot of agreement that white poverty, especially rural poverty, has the same culturally deleterious effects as Black “urban”‘poverty. There are entire fields of study about it that care about misplacing causal mechanisms

At the risk of overkill, I am very excited to share my newest article is out today in SRE: Where Platform Capitalism and Racial Capitalism Meet: The Sociology of Race and Racism in the Digital Society - Tressie McMillan Cottom, 2020 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23…
I am so grateful to editors @brunsma and @dgembrick for taking this piece on. That’s no small thing for a piece that’s working from a radical black studies theory + locating platform capitalism in race theory — not very mainstream sociology interests!
I also have to thank folks for being early readers & for work that’s been at this a long time. To name just a few (I haven’t yet had coffee; charge it to the game): @louise_seamster @JoshuaPoe_Lou @jeffguhin @FrankPasquale @npseaver @Greene_DM @alondra @ruha9 @lnakamur

I maintain that Spectrum isn’t a real company. I hadn’t heard of it before a couple years ago and nothing about my experience with them runs counter to this belief.
I think it’s just some guy in a basement running a scam on a few thousand people
Website janky. Remote controls janky. Wifi janky. When you call, I think you hear babies in the background playing dice.
