Beyond calling them out, what other steps are you taking to ensure that the women and non-binary people actually get the resources during the celebration this year? They are still all over the career fair, taking up huge chunks of lines.

@SnackleMochi Thank you for asking. Our first step toward creating a plan for change is to listen, and we are in the process of developing a collaborative avenue for GHC attendees to share more so we can do just that. Throughout this process, we will be transparent.

are you a parody organization? this is too great.

Untangle the sentence and count the steps before anything substantive might even theoretically be proposed:

We are developing (1) a collaborative (2) avenue (3) to share more (4) to create a plan (5) for change.

Implementation and enforcement? What are you, some kind of barbarian?

Reminds me of an old joke:

Your car gets a flat on a deserted highway late at night, but you see approaching headlights, slowing down. Should you hope your rescuer is a Democrat or a Republican?

Well, the Democrat will form a working committee to study proposals to draft a white paper to implement model legislation to create a Department of Saving Women on Lonely Roads.

The Republican will change your tire.

From the classic Tips for Northerners Moving to the South

4) If you do run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in the cab of a four-wheel drive with a 12-pack of beer and a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them. Just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.

But who will pray for the engine to start again?

Probably both at this point.

To be fair, 4 and 5 are out of order. Not that it makes any of this pointless word salad any better anyway.

But it brought me to @AnitaB_org's Twitter bio:

Driving inclusive technology by serving #womenintech & non-binary technologists 365 days a year.

Yeah. If you have that in your bio in 2023, we know what audience you're targeting, and it has nothing to do with inclusivity or anything that you could pin some made-up moral virtue on.

You dare question my expertise in wokespeak?! 🤪

The "that" at the end of the last clause is a referent to the "listen" at the end of the first clause, and the implicit object of that infinitive phrase is the subordinate infinitive verb "share."

I'm right, you mountebank!

I have faith that you're wrong so you can't prove me wrong, take that!

Paging u/penelopepnortney to tell us we're both pretty

You both make me laugh, does that count?

[–]Maniak🥃😾 2 insightful - 4 fun2 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 4 fun -  (9 children)

As long as we always agree that /u/penelopepnortney is the one to blame, as it should be.

You're worse than Louis, constantly whining in Interview with the Vampire.

What's the point of being a vampire if you're not going to have a good time?

My all-time favorite vampire line, by Bela Lugosi: "I never drink... wine" :-)

Seriously. Better to learn to like it since it's gonna last for eternity.

I don't know what you're talking about but I know who's to blame for it, so it's all fine.

Of course you do, you curmudgeon. I still love you to pieces, though, it's a mystery.
