Or wait or anything that requires you be on your feet for 6+ hours
Like you know how your feet feel all bruisey on the bottom after work and the pain still won’t be gone by the next morning and you have to deal w/ that pain AND the pain of the day to come
Well like my doctor told me that that bruisey feeling is cause standing on your feet all days causes fluids in your body to pool in your feet
So like at night he told me to elevate my legs with two pillows so the fluids can drain easier or w/e and ho damn.
It helps so much, Jesus Christ. No more limpy mornings.
Idk if this is even new information for y'all but just in case
a CEO walks into his office “any messages?” he asks his assistant “two anons want to know who tom petty is and one just says ‘post your ballsack’” “got it. check my dashboard” “that skeleton gif you like is back again” he rubs his chin pensively “mm. reblog that”
this is what i imagine david karp does with his time considering that tumblr hasn’t been improved for about three odd years
@SaraSoueidan: Dear men, This is how you greet a veiled Muslim woman (a Hijabi). Hand on your chest, not offering to shake hers. 🙋
so prominent BLM activist deray mckesson just retweeted this which i think is super cool for various reasons :)))
I did not know this. Is it OK for a non Muslim woman to shake hands with a Hijabi? Or do we do the hand on chest thing too?@popcanpoli
hey so i don’t wear a hijab and i’m not muslim so i definitely don’t have the authority to answer this question (or any other questions i’ve been getting abt this) (i’m just a lil canadian politics blog i didn’t expect this to blow up lol)
BUT here are some tweets by the original tweeter (who wears a hijab) that clarify some things
one:
two:
three:
This is also good if you’re meeting an Orthodox Jewish person who’s not the same gender as you! Not all Orthodox Jews hold by this restriction, and many consider it a permissible exception to shake hands in a formal greeting context; I’d guess this is parallel to Ms. Soueidan’s last-quoted tweet above. And as that says, the sensible thing is to wait for initiation.
Yup! Back when I worked for an LGBTQ organization, I had to warn my (Christian) boss ahead of time that the Orthodox rabbi we were meeting with would offer his hand to my boss but not to me. I just didn’t want my boss to be surprised and say something inappropriate.
