Please do not give any person, especially not a disabled person, this advice:

Why don't you go work for [one of the most unethical corporations in existence]?

Giving this advice to someone because they posted something about a kind of job hunting or wanting $$ is no exception.
In that circumstance, it would still be awful advice, and when you give it to a disabled person, it's bad, awful, ableist advice.

It's so frustrating that I'm almost out of my 20's and any family member of mine still thinks this is okay.
I never asked for assistance with a job search or even said I said I was searching for a job. I have a profile on a freelance work site.

Giving me this awful unsolicited advice is willfully ignoring my disabilities and my principles.

The first sentence in the previous tweet should have been:

"I never asked for assistance with a job search or even said I was searching for a job."

Sorry for the error.

Arming non-security employees is bad (though I think armed security employees, including cops, at schools, is also bad).
Those that think it's a good idea for employees of schools to have guns are creating a school shooting recipe with three steps:

1) Get a job at a school
2) Shoot students and staff
3) Shoot self

I think it's appropriate for any journalists, like the progressive and conservative journalists who have rushed to cast David Weigel as having been unjustly punished, to do so *instead* of QT'ing @oliverdarcy to decry the decision.
This includes a quoted tweet by an author who deleted the tweet (I can only imagine because of a torrent of abuse by misogynists). I have redacted their identity, so as to protect their privacy and safety.
Have any of these journalists decrying the suspension of Weigel read a single employee handbook in their lives? These are the harassment and social media sections from an employee handbook from a grocery store I worked at in 2018:

Thread of my QT's of stupid, offensive stuff that Dave Weigel has tweeted; he didn't retweet the all women are bi (sexual or polar) joke in a vacuum. Also some related commentary
Not actually a QT of Weigel, but a QT of reply to a screenshot of a 2008 tweet of Weigel's in which he joked about "comfort women," I kid you not (though I couldn't find the original tweet on this website so this is not confirmed):
