Me: Yes sir I understand that the office door cannot be closed when two colleagues of opposite gender are alone together due to sexual misconduct concerns but as an openly bisexual employee I have to ask if leaving two colleagues of the same gender entirely unsupervised isn’t a double standard
Me: Like. I feel I should also have my ass covered if a same-gender colleague accuses me of shit, you know
Bossman: Nahhhhhhh it’s good
The morally grey cathedral goblin that lives on my shoulder and judges the value of my kneejerk impulses: If you grabbed his ass right now he would learn such an important lesson forever but we don’t roll like that bro
Me: (out loud) Okay

There’s one rule: ==please incorporate teh word rule in your post titles==
The “one” rule is you have to post before you leave. You absolutely don’t need to put rule in the title
On @[email protected], I saw yesterday, the quote, “==please incorporate teh word rule in your post titles==”, and posted it above. Now I can’t find it, and must get back to work. Also this is not a pipe!
Mod here: Not a cause for removal and we have a lot of rules, actually. The incorporating rule into posts is more of a suggestion to keep the culture going.
https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/130970 "==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles== Here are the things that get you banned: -saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account -tankie behaviour -nazi behaviour -authoritarian behaviour -genocide denial -prejudice of any kind -anything else that is clearly bad
Things that get your post/comment removed: -AI generated content -anything in the banlist -posts that are so off topic that they don’t fit on 196 at all -moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you’d see on your aunt’s Facebook page or Elon musk’s Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption) -corpoposting
Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.
---------EDIT:NSFW RULES--------- NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.
IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.
Please leave any suggested edits in the comments.
JAN 2024 UPDATE: MOLDY MONDAYS Monday is now moldy Monday. on this day and only this day moldy memes are not only allowed, but encouraged. The crustier the better. The type of thing that’s been reposted at least 2,000 times with filters and bad crops and watermarks and hopefully minions. please caption with moldy rule
If you have any issues, please reach us at [email protected]. PLEASE do not dm me, as I am not consistently available and tend to step away from the mantle for weeks to months at a time."
Thanks for ALL of that. I hope you could just copy paste it. I do luv me some 196, but am not terribly creative, so have not posted near as much as I"ve enjoyed.
I hope you could just copy paste it.
See the linked post at the top of their reply
Very based for not needing nsfw tag on posts depicting breasts in a non sexual manner
I’m a rule breaker, apparently
auch a rebel
teh epic bacon ruleh!!!1
hey hey what time does teh narwhal bacon?
Midnight, but i don’t know what timezone
OP is a bisexual tho.
Bossman: We’re only compliant enough to stay out of the press. It’s not like I need to know the difference between gender and sexuality.
What do you do about nonbinary employees? Like, if drag is a dragon rider, is drag not allowed to be left alone with a dragon? Or not allowed to be left alone with anyone but a dragon rider?
I mean, if you constantly refer to yourself in the third person, you’re going to be unemployed, so it’s not something drag should concern dragself with, is it?
Drag doesn’t see anyone here who refers to themself in the third person.
Drag is awesome and should continue to be as drag is.
Thank you!
That guy is dickhead but ‘dragself’ goes hard, you should add it to your vocab lmao
Oh, drag has been using the first person reflexive for a long time now. Ironically, that transphobe was gendering drag correctly.

I’m gonna be talking shit about you later, but I want to do it right. So why don’t you tell me your pronouns?
Terry doesn’t like this comment
Oh look, someone is doing something eccentric online that doesn’t actually harm anyone!
Better extrapolate that to their real life, make assumptions about that life and leverage that to make fun of them. Gotta make sure people conform to my expectations of behaviour online, right?
behavior like yours is why the world is so shit to queer and neurodivergent people. you see someone doing something slightly weird and cannot resist the urge to insult them. fuck all the way off
maybe i’m old, but i have no idea what a dragon rider is. am i boomer now?
It’s someone who climbs on top of a dragon and sits there while the dragon is flying. Often while using a sword or other weapon, or while guiding the dragon in combat.
So I’m a first responder at my workplace. I’m literally a trained and certified medical professional. I got called for a coworker passing out a while back. I got there and they had the coworker now consious in one of our conference rooms along with the shift manager. The coworker was still feeling woozy so I start going through the assessment process.
This coworker was a young woman, I am a slightly less young man. I 100% get why the shift manager didn’t want to leave me alone with her. At the same time though, I am bound by HIPAA, the shift manager is not. I can’t disclose any medical information she tells me to anyone, the shift manager has no such restriction. So now I’m left trying to figure out how to ask my patient some rather personal medical questions with a lookie lou sitting right there listening to everything she says. That is invasive and uncomfortable when I’m asking about shit like her period (because low iron can be an issue) but becomes especially problematic when one of the questions I need to ask is if they’re using any drugs (I work in a manufacturing plant, it happens). I don’t record that they are if they say yes and I can’t tell anyone (I just monitor for a bit in case of OD and ensure they get a ride home), but nobody is ever going to say yes to that question with their bosses boss sitting right there. Luckily the shift manager eventually got called away for something and I had a brief chance to ask those questions.
Like I said, As a man I 100% get why they don’t want to leave me alone with women. At the same time though in situations like that it makes my job several times harder and is a potential legal disaster for me. It wouldn’t be an issue at all if I was treating a guy. Also it’s even more anoying because I’m fucking asexual. I get that they have no way to know that and people lie. I’m just pissed that situations like this get so complicated because the world is full fucking rapist assholes.
Your story is an example of how we have left the post-modern behind and founded the meta-modern world or from the OP entered the realm of the grey cathedral goblin.
But we dont roll like that, today.
bold of you to assume he would learn any sort of lesson as opposed to firing you and immediately forgetting it happened
Do it to your junior and spout bullshit about it being over the top and fake
What’s a morally grey cathedral goblin?
A stone grotesque, a common part of gothic architecture.
If it had an open channel for running water away from the building, it would be a gargoyle.
Did… I just learn something… How do I subscribe to Gothic facts
