I don't know much to be useful in id-ing on sight, but can you describe the conditions it's been in? Is the soil well-draining? How long does it take for the top inch of soil to appear dried out, and how often are you watering? Did you repot it recently, and/or is the pot the right size (just a bit bigger than the roots)? How often are you using fertilizer? Is it getting any direct light? How many direct and indirect light hours total do you think? Is it autumn where you are and it's adjusting to less light, or vice versa?

So is the critique for Southern Company for writing some marketing material, or for The Atlantic for running an ad about it?

I'm really not one to defend companies, but this is a bit of a weird take, and it makes the author sound really unfamiliar with this business sector. White papers are very common and not peer reviewed, basically they're a glorified memo with statistics. Don't rely on white papers for any information besides what that company is saying about itself and its experience.

Is there a reason you have characterized this incident as a gender issue?

Was the poor work the work of the nurse who heard you and chewed you out? Do you often criticize the work of your coworkers in a nonproductive manner, expletives or no?

Did you say anything else before saying "fuck" to your coworker, or before she chewed you out? Do you think you were on good terms with her before this incident?

Are you listening to the specifics of your coworkers' complaints? What are they asking you to do differently?

Hi! Not strictly a lesbian here but in a lesbian relationship. Yes, lesbians have top/bottom dynamics typically in the "one doing the action" vs the "one being acted upon" across various different acts. Most switch it up ("vers"), rather than identifying primarily as tops or bottoms. If you are strictly a top or strictly a bottom, you're described as "stone" as in "stone top" or "stone bottom".

Very important that these are completely different roles than dominant/submissive/switch, which are BDSM terms and describe a more psychological aspect of a relationship than the more physical top/bottom/vers.

Look, folks in the US are extremely on edge about this election (that's both currently happening through early voting and the last day possible within 2 weeks), and in particular, foreign interference/propaganda. There's a lot of crap we're getting from every angle under the sun trying to get "the right people" to vote and "the wrong people" to stay at home, depending on the political inclination. It's exhausting and we're having a bad time. We know shit sucks here and we are trying our hardest to not descend further into fascism with a guy who literally admires Hitler. If we get some lightly progressive policies out of it, that's great. By pushing some "both parties suck" propaganda in this eleventh hour, everyone is going to dog pile you because we're sick of this so much.

Thank you lol

I am noting that OP didn't respond here, mayhaps they enjoy critiquing political circumstances they can't contribute to more than addressing their own? 🤔

And they edited the post to something innocuous! For anyone coming in late, the original was what u/Prunebutt here said but with US politics instead.

Bruh you're not even US American, get outta here with this defeatist crap. Don't you have your own right wing surge to fight in Germany?

Meanwhile, everyone on tumblr is relieved that Matt has something to distract him from harassing trans women for existing

Is this a community, or is this a circlejerk? I don't think categorizing beginners who don't know where to start as leeches creates the kind of environment people of all knowledge levels want to spend time in. You don't personally have to educate them, but telling them off for asking is pretty rude.
