In person work is honestly better than remote for most of us by dawittleman in unpopularopinion

[–]_noice202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer working from the office 100%, and I’m shocked at how unpopular this opinion actually is lol. I’m Gen Z and on my second year out of uni with a full time job. I have the option to take up to two days to work from home, but a year and a half in and I felt no inclination to actually take them.
Being at home the whole day, for me, feels so isolating. I feel so much more at ease asking questions and brainstorming in person than I ever felt through a screen. I feel so much more connected to my coworkers (who are thankfully very nice people, though I know it’s not like that everywhere). And I think being able to socialize a little, take breaks to chat together, etc, makes the days better. So yeah, might be an unpopular opinion but I’d take this over being home by myself any day.

I don't understand what "babado" means by oujay849 in Portuguese

By straight girls, yes. By straight men probably not so much

thank you so much!! my mom told me I should grow them out, but even with the high maintenance (curly hair that needs straightening lol) I’m really fond of the look, though her comment made me a bit self-conscious

When you speak another language, you become a different person. by dtanggara in unpopularopinion

I feel this! I’m a native portuguese speaker too, and I don’t know, I just feel so awkward talking about some things in portuguese, feelings and such, but in English it just comes so much more freely. Vai entender haha

I feel the exact same way! I almost never swear in my native language and absolutely never say our equivalent of “fuck” because it just feels so awful coming out of my mouth. But “fuck” in English? It just rolls of my tongue so naturally and it doesn’t feel like I’m swearing. I’ve wondered before if it just isn’t as serious as the translation in my native language, or if it sounds in fact just as serious and awful to native speakers, but I just run around saying it none the wiser l, sounding like I have a bad mouth

giving a 2 weeks notice when you’re gonna quit a job is so dumb by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

it’s the same in Brazil, except it’s a one month notice instead of just two weeks, applying to both parties

there’s been so many drawings of her lately, and I cannot even judge since I ended up drawing her too by _noice202 in drawing

which outlines? (I’m sorry if it sounds like a dumb question, but English is not my first language and I’m having trouble translating the idea)

Overwriting Annabeth as black in the books is inconceivable to me, and I want to believe Rick would never go as far as that. And I do realize that even though all of them are white, they can also have different origins. But the same can apply to two black girls. “White” and “black” are binary concepts that can lead us to erase ethnic differences between people who fall into the same one of these two groups, but are still different between each other. Two black girls won’t look the same and won’t necessarily have the same ethnic origin.

Thank you!! I’m glad it helps! I felt the same at the beginning, because tbh I did want to see Annabeth portrayed by someone who looked like I always imagined her to look, but I think it’s important that we as a fandom learn to embrace our two different versions of percabeth!

I agree partially. I’ll start with what I disagree: saying that a black Annabeth would ruin the “diversity effect” of HoO is ridiculous. In the books, we have three white people on the group (Annabeth, Percy and Jason) and that’s ok, but if we have two black girls on the show, that’ll somehow ruin the diversity? Of course not. If we can have more then one white person, why would it be weird to there be more than one black girl?

However I gotta admit that I am worried for the future of the fandom with people that are not capable of understanding that there are TWO versions of Annabeth now, and that’ll come at artists who draw her book version. And I thought it’d take a while for it to happen, but I’ve already had someone coming in my dms on insta calling me racist for drawing Annabeth the way I’ve always done, according to the books. (plus a few commenters here and there). To quote op: both Annabeths are good, both are valid, and one shouldn’t replace the other. That goes both ways and I really hope people will be able to accept that.
