@witchfynder_finder i’m sure a union could negotiate this sort of thing as part of a contract 😏

@witchfynder_finder if a company wanted to man their phones on the weekend or outside of work hours it’s easy, just make those hours work double

like i would absolutely show up to work on saturday and sunday if it meant only working three days a week hell yes

work only 4 hours from 5pm to 9pm instead of 8 hours during the workday but still get paid the same??? hell yes

@witchfynder_finder tbf millennials all wanted to be young adult fantasy authors

@witchfynder_finder @KitRedgrave « 'None of the girls has got one,' said Bao-yu, his face streaming with tears and sobbing hysterically. 'Only I have got one. It always upsets me. And now this new cousin comes here who is as beautiful as an angel and she hasn't got one either, so I *know* it can't be any good.' »

@clayote@cybre.space i think most of them actually used ƒ, the florin sign, which was in the Mac OS Roman character set for some reason

@witchfynder_finder the thing about hereditary nobility is that you can just say “i’m not doing that” and nobody can take your nobility away

@aescling "assume that" is just a long form of "assume"; cf. "assume that it be the case that"

@aescling or “assume it be the case that” etc

plain “it be that” operates pretty much entirely to create the subjunctive mood with no trimmings and i think most english speakers today would just drop it if it didn't have anything else to add

@aescling my guess is that “assume the arrangement be [such] that” is more common than a plain “it” but

@aescling if the usage is grammatical and you made it then it is attested by you :P

@aescling sounds subjunctivey to me
