Grint is stepping back into the role of Ron Weasley in The Cursed Child on Broadway.

He can say he supports the trans community, but it sure seems like a pay check and a misguided hope at a return to cultural relevance is all it takes to stop caring.

I mean Grint is on the side of the transphobes, and Charles has admitted to sexting with 16 year old boys, so I’m happy to throw the lot of them onto the pyre.

I pay Mullvad. They pay the Founder. The Founder makes a large donation to anti-immigration parties.

Is that really enough abstraction for you?

Benefit of the doubt that you aren’t asking in bad faith.

Most people aren’t demanding Mullvad fire the founder, but that also doesn’t mean that we have to give him money to donate to fascists.

Mullvad are free do what they like with their right wing founder. Just like customers are free to refuse to fund anti-immigration policies. If Mullvad doesn’t like that, it’s up to them to decide how to appeal to customers.

Nobody is denying that Mullvad is a good product, but I need this specific vpn less than I need a safer future for my children.

My version of this is “casted”.

The past tense of cast is cast.

Inde Navarrette was not ‘casted’ as Rogue in the X-Men, but she was cast in the role. I’m sick of hearing illiterate idiots use that word every time some sort of movie news comes out.

I think if you obsess over ‘figuring out’ the person, it can be weird.

I have definitely checked post history and upvotes on some users just to get context for their comments. It has saved me wasting time trying to have a discussion with someone who only seems to ever look for fights.

It’s not just your small business though. It’s Every. Single. Application.

Could I use a template? Actually probably not as more and more businesses are asking for specifics in the cover letters to combat templates and AI use.

To the business owner it’s only a few minutes to write cover letter, but when people are applying for dozens of jobs a day, that all ask for unique responses, and quizzes, and forms that are identical to the CV you are required to upload, it gets very hard to write an even vaguely inspired response to “why do you want to sell kebabs out of my food truck for minimum wage?”
