Hey guys, in light of these kind of computer-picked search results popping up with dangerous regularity, & since they clearly abandoned “don’t be evil” a really long time ago, I’m trying to decide this overly-trusted search engine’s new slogan.
Alison Green got me all my interviews from 2012 onward, I am reasonably sure.
Alison Green is basically my life guide.
Mine too - she was my most visited website for the first few years of my working career, and I cannot emphasise enough how much her advice helped me navigate how to behave in a work environment. You name it, she has an answer for it. Definitely a life hack.
Say you break your ankle. You could know everything there is to know intellectually about the injury. Even with this vast knowledge, you will still experience physical pain.
Now take this logic and apply it to thingslike ADHD, autism, clinical depression, and other less visible/divergent disabilities. You cannot think your way out of feeling.
That is to say: you are not a bad, lazy, or selfish person for struggling, even if you know why you are struggling.
bella was lucky she didn’t have a cell phone of any kind because you know ya boi edward would be blowing up that phone 24-7 going “saw a snail today…. effervescent” or some shit equivalent
@ people who carry bags everywhere what do you put in them what is there to bring other than chapstick, keys, phone and maybe a tampon why are you packing a suitcase to be outside for 5 hours
stop, take a moment to gather yourself and breathe deeply (stop, take a moment to apply first aid to your wound)
find the root cause of your anger; what brought your anger about and how come? (find what caused your injury; what hurt you, what type of wound?)
what can you do to regain control? try not to fuel the anger with violence; mitigate by being gentle to yourself and others (what can you do to keep you safe from further and future injury? what further treatment do you need? try not to aggravate your wound; be gentle and cautious)
accept you’ve done all you can, continue to breathe deeply, and find comfort away from anger and violence (accept you have done all you can and continue to take care of yourself)

To be fair to the American, when he puts the pieces together, he’s got a turn of speed
Look, fairies aren’t real. Any Irish person will tell you that…
But we did once divert a major road around a fairy tree just on the off chance.
And then they didn’t divert a later bit of the road and it went through a fairy fort and now there’s a government review to tackle why there’s so many crashes and accidents happening on that stretch.
They’re not real. Obviously. But don’t fuck with them ffs
Fairies aren’t real
jockeys are very very real and distinctly off-putting
As the video says, they’re a type of human but
Smaller
Slighter
Very vivid eyes
Considered uncanny/worrying/spooky/alarming enough to scare off a guy who is not bothered by more abstract threats
However, to be completely fair, a lot of the anxiety that men have about them is the men’s own problem, and is largely due to the suspicion and fear that modern men have about horsegirls.
Genuinely, jockeys genuinely are more afraid of you than you are of them, and most adverse encounters happen because people overstep their clear signals of stress. In reality, far from being the aggressors, jockeys - when not on horses - are admittedly weird but very shy.
For example, here, British champion jockey Ryan Moore is shown being unfairly persecuted by someone trying to ask him horrible questions like “how did you make the horsie run fast.” Encumbered by his gear, poor Ryan is unable to pull off his usual dematerialisation trick.
You can see that ordinary people have the advantage, at least when jockeys aren’t mounted, and can usually frighten them off with eye contact.
It’s much harder to attract one, for which purposes you’re strongly advised to get a horse.
There is an old story about a jockey who somebody fucked with his knees and he couldn’t race anymore; about a month later, deprived, he’d ripped a hole between his reality and another and completely destabilized the society of two planets. I think it’s the most accurate depiction I’ve ever read.
ok that’s a very normal way to deal with horselessness, but WHAT STORY WAS THIS?
yeah dude or else youre gonna be that coworker people post about
this is by far the most insane example
i will never stop being furious about the (white cisdude of course) coworker who, when i talked about gamma radiation, laughed loudly in my face and exclaimed “gamma radiation isn’t real, this isn’t the hulk!!”
i had to walk away and scream into a towel in the backroom over that one.
“the beast is opening a theme park in the middle east” i says with disappointment. “youtube money man decided slave labour is fine actually. children buy his chocolates.”
