Emaline:
If someone bones a taxidermy animal, is it still beastiality? I mean, it's an inanimate object, and basically a statue, so wouldn't it be more of agalmatophilia?

Jimmy the Squid:
I'll tell you what it is.


Hot.

Emaline:
Blog:

I'm sitting here filling out job applications, and my employment history screams "our economy sucks!" One place I can't give a phone number to because it was a locally owned place and recently had to close, and my reasons for leaving my last job is "Laid off due to company downsizing". Its pretty sad.


Also, would it kill a place to email me back and say "Sorry we aren't hiring right now/Aren't interested"? I mean, it doesn't seem very professional to me to not send something like that.


ETA: One of the applications has this question:

Check one of the following race/ethnic group(s):
American Indian/Alaskan Native
Asian
Black or African American
Hispanic or Latino
Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander
Two or more of the above races
White/Caucasian


WTF. Its a voluntary question, but nonetheless, it's a crappy question. Especially since I identify as white and also Hawaiian. White/Caucasian it defines as "A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East. And Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander is defines as "A person having origins in any of th original peoples of Hawaii, Guan, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands." My grandmother is Hawaiian, and I identify as both white/caucasian and "Native Hawaiian", so why can't I chose those two? Why are they mutually exclusive? This is bullshit.

I really want to mark both, and then draw an arrow to the question and write "This offends me." But I also need to be good and get a job.

But seriously these last two applications are complete bullshit. Why am I even applying to stores who won't even acknowledge me when I walk in?

BrittanyMarie:
That question has been in every single application I have ever filled out. This is seriously the first time you've ran into that?

Emaline:
It's the first time in a long time I've ran into it. And it's never been phrased in a way where I cannot mark what two races I am.
