1) Chalk it up as a Workplace Accommodation.
A) He is providing verbal warning regarding an ongoing medical issue which he is otherwise unable to control, so be mindful of the warning. You have (hopefully) now full scope of warning system. You have provided additional data to another team member.
B) If anyone else asks for an accommodation and doesn't get it, you can point to this as an example of when the business did accommodate someone. Leadership can't say they don't allow some disruption of work for an entire team to meet an employee's needs.
2) If this is a real story, it exemplifies the idea that you can be weird as long as you're skilled or educated enough. No low-level worker gets this much space without having to ask/beg and explain/disclose. Become so valuable that your deficiencies are overlooked for your contribution ability

Tax holiday is one month later. At least, for school-related purchases in Alabama it is.

I know but it's mostly at him and people like him. This was not the adulthood I was promised.

When I was a kid, I scooted too close to the edge and went flying off. Hit the ground knees first and bled brown for a second. (The blood came out with the dirt pushed in.) That was the day I learned my Dad was much faster pusher than some other people's Dads.

They do. Look, focusing on institutions instead of individuals isn't a bad impulse. But it doesn't work for this, because that still normalizes the extreme dysfunction by trying to recontextualize it. Be mad at the politicians driving a narrative for their own gain. Be mad at people unwilling to do or engage with anything. Be mad at the populist and reductive talking points. The law is doing its best to execute against a deliberately created mess. There are laws. They can not fix anything because the whole situation is stupid. Put your anger and thoughts toward making it less stupid.

Yeah, go full out and BE A HIPPIE, or be a corporate drone. Don't play weekend hippie. Hipsters show up in their poor person/radical person costume for a few days and then head back to the suburbs feeling special. Death to hipsters, indeed.

Sit down, Josh. You are still very much way tooooooo stupid to reference feminism. Land. It's baffling, the lack of awareness.

Side note - this is why people who argue working for a functional society isn't a selfish pursuit, or that it's not a requirement for individual success, are wrong. One at a time, we as a species have next to nothing to get by. Collectively? We don't get tired, we don't stay dead, we learn real fast. We rule the planet.

Verbal artefact from thinking women are the natural victims, so we therefore need a different word for when it happens to the "wrong" gender. Enraging from any side of the debate. I have never heard sexual assault of a male called reverse r*pe. It's ridiculous on its face and causes echoing damage as a concept. 100% agree you should reject such language in the strongest terms.
