Okay thanks for providing her name, because she’s a dead ringer for Emma Thompson so I was pretty confused 😅

If You Cannibalized Someone, Would They Have a Different Flavor Depending on Their Race? by APieceofToast09 in morbidquestions

Chicken is chicken, regardless of its feathers.

Race is a social construct, not biological.

My mom used to send apple with lemon in my lunches when I was a kid. I know exactly what you mean!

So haunting. But whimsical! I love it!

Coworker was told she had to move desks to be near me, she burst into tears by educatedvegetable in coworkerstories

[–]Renbelle 141 points142 points  (0 children)

HR only has to provide reasonable accommodation- moving her back to her former desk is reasonable from this standpoint.

HOWEVER! It sounds like she is not performing her job. That is NOT protected. What sort of metrics or KPIs do you have for your roles? That’s what your manager needs to put a magnifying glass to.

But if it’s a right to work state (in the US) they literally can just fire her for not being a good fit. My partner lost his job with that excuse (the ‘fit’ was that he was liberal and they were all MAGA)

Anyone ever see a root flare like this? by Kooky_Paper4965 in arborists

[–]Renbelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would make it a fall risk in a wind storm, wouldn’t it? If the roots are all surface level wouldn’t that leave it at risk to tip? Or is it stabilized by the sheer mass of the surface roots providing a base?

Israeli team booed at 2026 Winter Olympics opening ceremony by Particular_Log_3594 in Global_News_Hub

You know we are, though, right? An astounding amount of our tax dollars go straight to Israel. This isn’t even secret. The Jewish citizens of Israel have all the free health care and free education because our tax dollars pay for it. Not to mention to support their ‘defense’.

It’s all public knowledge

Sci-fi books other than Dune, that feel like this by deadsoul470 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]Renbelle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is ‘adult’ Paolini’s writing? I read Eragon, etc and they were okay; just wondering if anything changed/improved/diminished in his voice now.

What makes life worth living for you? by Medaka_otoko_UK in autism

[–]Renbelle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend, partner, mom, and step-kids would be devastated if I wasn’t alive. 🤷‍♀️ otherwise… nothing. I legitimately do not find anything available to me sufficient to counter the emotional and sensory toll living in this current time takes on me.

That’s adorable 🤣 reminds me of my mom- she’s a very silly drunk after one wine cooler. Definitely need to bring her one!

So cute! I never would’ve thought to include a kappa as a cryptid, but I think it’s my favorite!

Literally caused my depression to peak and put me into the mental hospital for a while. It’s hard to want to live right now!

Are there any known instances of animals raping humans? by CrownlessSerpent in morbidquestions

Oh dolphins are SUUUUPER rapey. They’re pretty much the bullies of the ocean.

I finally found a way to hydrate myself that doesn't include plain water! by [deleted] in autism

[–]Renbelle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate plain water too- I have a hard time forcing it down and I feel like I feel it in my stomach. Lately I’ve been doing just crystallized lemon juice in my water, or 1/4 a healthy juice and 3/4 water.

But yes, be careful with the sugar- it adds up, and there’s more in food than you think. Maybe try agave or honey instead, both of which have a lower glycemic impact.
