      The dude knows his stuff when it comes to nuclear waste & disposal requirements. If we judge by the facts, rather than anyone's feelings, he's well qualified for the job. What's your problem? Are you having a fit of fee-fees over how he chooses to dress & style his hair? https://twitter.com/daxtonbrown/status/1492207599105630212 …

      the stable compromise point is "actually dont take your whole self to work. at work you adopt the same bland and inoffensive work persona as everyone else because your job is not a vehicle for political expression. keep that shit off-hours and we pretend that self doesnt exist"

      a really anodyne example is that I swear about 5x more than any of my colleagues

      this feels like such a class thing to me which is weird because I "should" be part of the swearing-not-so-much class, and sort of want to be, but actually am not

      swearing, and taboos against swearing are good, but only when they come in that pairing they are good because they provide an opportunity for someone to demonstrate their ability to (a) understand contextual clues (b) engage in extremely mild self censorship >>>

      if someone can not moderate their swearing in a professional situation, if they are an outlier and swear much more than others, it proves that they are defective in either understanding contexts, or in very mild self censorship in service to business goals this is excellent info

      it's notable that every single culture has tabooed words it seems insanely unlikely that this would happen unless where was a Very Good Reason

          I'll bet you that it was context dependent; that they did it amongst themselves, but not in front of the group X or Yhttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1492961006229671936 …

          i think of swearing as one tool among many to calibrate the tone of a given message 🤔 im not sure its necessarily about class, maybe more about subculture? i once went out with some C-level executives from a Huge firm and they cussed nonstop

          one common use of cussing is to mildly violate norms to establish a deeper social bond
