Hahahahahaha

Fuck'em

But the pendant in me points out that the company didn't change an internal policy for what they consider mental illness, just now theyre allowing ~~hate speech~~ "free* speech"

Now I wonder if that would pass muster as a legal argument - meta doesn't necessarily believe this as our policy, but we allow people to express their hate on this platform

The pedant in me points out that you misspelled "pedant".

No, after a harrowing run-in with the Witch of the Swamp, they had a talisman embedded in their chest that forces them to warn people when they need to be both pragmatic and somber.

So it literally is the pendant in them.

The pendant in me thinks they got it perfect.

[-] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks, I appreciate it. The witch's evil pendant doesn't have a spell check. (Ironic, I think so)

[-] agitated_judge@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago

I'm sure the witch has a spell book though.

(I'll show myself out now)

[-] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

She has a dictionary, yeah.

[-] samus12345@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Probably an overlook of autocorrect.

[-] frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe 2 points 3 weeks ago

No, there is no way this could be right. But....if it is, thank you so much for explaining it. I feel better just knowing you're on the case!

[-] samus12345@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

The pendant in me submits that there is a difference between plain old misspelling and unintentional autocorrect.

You're not wrong, they need a union. Which is precisely why Facebook and Twitter pack their payroll with H1-b visas.

The US has a glut of skilled tech workers right now thanks to a quarter-million layoffs last year, the argument that they can't find the labor locally is facetious. Also, every H1-b worker should be entitled to dual citizenship or full naturalization, whichever is their preference.

We need to streamline the citizenship process before we face population collapse due to capitalism. But.

That's just feeding more people into the machine

But.

It's worse where they came from so it's better to give them citizenship right?

But.

Not for at least four more years.
