Where I was today, what I saw there

Don't make me tap the sine ∿

I have a friend who grades/reviews at the same transcription site I do and we've both noticed a pretty gross form of racism. Whenever a speaker in an audio file is either clearly a PoC from a video, or sounds like a PoC, very often the transcriptionist will alter the person's dialogue. They might be speaking perfectly clearly, but the TCer will 'start droppin' letters an' addin' their own interpretation of the speech, ya know' and 'that's somethin' I do' and not 'that's something I'd do'.

You're walking down the street like a normal person. That is what normal people do, right?
Anyway, send me the song people think you're listening to and the song you're actually listening to,
both 🔴 per DM in reply to this toot 🔴.

I'm not seeing a lot of people talk about this so I'm not sure if you even know?

1. France is making the hijab illegal for everyone under 18 (in public. In other words, they're making it illegal for underage hijabis to fucking *go outside*). Hijabis also won't be allowed to accompany their children on school trips

2. Germany is making it illegal for hijabis to work in public office, like as a teacher
