NEW: Delta employee fed up with the pronoun police & threatens to kick man out of LaGuardia airport who whined about being "misgendered."
Give this man a raise!
"Wasn't intentional. But if you want to take it personal, that's ok."
The person in the video, a friend of Dylan Mulvaney, shared it to TikTok in an effort to "expose" the employee but it backfired miserably.
"When you try to advocate for yourself at Delta and are met with even more transphobia and threats of being arrested," he whined.
"Didn't realize it was condescending to flag a human rights violation after another employee misgendered me incessantly."

I did @stripe's internal conference called CONVERGENCE today
I never do conferences, because I have to fly somewhere for 18 hours, get jetlag, have bad food, get bad sleep, essentially everything gets rekt, just for a few minutes of talking, not worth it
So @edwinwee said "no problem", and suggested we'll just do it remotely with a video call
I thought "ok great", so I was going to just hold my iPhone and sit on the couch and call in from my Zoom app
What I didn't know is he then flew in an entire camera crew with lights and a live video feed
For an internal conference! 🤯
Stripe operates at another level

Jake had an absolutely wild #Survivor Tribal Council
His brain gasses out, then he has a "slip-up" about having an idol. He plays his Shot in the Dark, fails, then gets blindsided when it's not him
I'm sure he's loving that he stayed. But he showed it wasn't by his own doing 😂

@DaltonRoss @JeffProbst nice move, you should also start a running list of public quitters to avoid future contestants quitting. Survivor≠quitting

#Survivor host Jeff Probst declares that quitters will no longer get torch snuffed: 'I think I need to be a little harder on that.' ew.com/survivor-jeff-…

On Sunday, November 12 at 1 pm (GMT) , we are releasing three new tondo posters for sale on our web store.
Today I would like to introduce three more of my signed, limited edition works, in advance of their general release, to Murakami.Flowers NFT holders and fans.
My hope is for the NFT holders and fans to obtain these three works as a starter kit for you to build your collection of IRL, corporeal artworks.
The sale period is 48 hours.
As we are approaching the holiday season, we are making up to 10 of each kind available to each customer for purchase as a token of our appreciation for your continued patronage.
(In other words, here’s a holiday gift idea for your friends.)
"Kōrin Flowers and Water"
Now, let me explain the three types of works.
The first work is titled "Korin Flowers and Water".
The work is based on a masterpiece fan painting by Ogata Kōrin, a genius painter from the Edo period. There is a river depicted in the upper part of the work, and under the representation of the river, on this side, so to speak, there are flowers. As commonly noted, when the camera was invented, it was proven that painters focus on their subjects of interest by placing them in prominent positions—in other words, that they employ the multi-point perspective of the human eye. This work embodies this idea.
"Paradise in a Flower Field"
Next is "Paradise in a Flower Field".
The painting on which this print is based took about three years to complete from the start of its production, using the method in which we apply numerous layers of paint to achieve the multi-layered structure using silkscreens and squeegees.
The reason why I paint flowers is because in the history of Japanese painting, there has been a strong context of appreciating nature, a tradition of depicting natural sceneries of the four seasons, such as flowers, birds, wind, and moon, or snow, moon, and flowers, without including human figures. This is the context in which I produce works with flower motifs.
“My Sincerity to You”
The third work is titled “My Sincerity to You”.
The title comes from the Japanese title of the movie “Charly” (based on the novel “Flowers for Algernon”) and the subtitle of an Evangelion movie.
I emulated a not-so-famous work by Andy Warhol of a bouquet of flowers and replaced them with my flowers. The reason why I paint flowers in the first place, again, is because I attended the Nihonga Department of Tokyo University of the Arts, a department that studies and produces historical Japanese-style paintings, and obtained a doctorate degree from there.
In Japan, many of the subjects of paintings are based on nature, such as Kacho Fugetsu (flower, bird, wind and moon) or Setsugekka (snow, moon and flowers); the nature-centered, rather than human-centered, philosophy is prevalent in art.
These floral motifs are the voice of my heart.
Please, do experience the mental explosion through collecting art, not only NFTs—collecting IRL art is an experience similar to encountering love in your life.
Takashi Murakami
(P.S. We were very pleased with the unexpectedly positive reaction to our last Tan Tan Bo Puking print release. Thank you very much.)

Hey @adamilenich and @opensea.
I have two items in my wallet who were originally flagged for suspicious activity 16 DAYS ago. As per your policy if a report is not filed within 7 DAYS the flag should be removed.
I have tried email correspondence to you, only to be met by automated responses who clearly cannot read or comprehend any of the context or proof in my messaging. Other items from this same original “suspicious activity” account have had their flags dropped off yet you guys are making it incredibly difficult to get mine removed.
Fix your customer service. Stick to YOUR OWN policies you created, and quite frankly get your shit together.
If you ever wondered why you have continued to lose market share this is it.
Sincerely,
Crusher 🖕
