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

    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?

        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.

      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?

        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

        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?
