OK, so there's a startup that developed a Slack bot to "smoothen flirting at work". R U FUCKIN KIDDIN ME.

Thus, welcome to all sorts of shitty sexting, inappropriate invitations and remarks. And since management has authorised its integration to the internal communications tool (Slack), then sexual harassment is bound to grow and thrive.

Hey technosolutionist kiddies, why don't you fucking get a life.

@maliciarogue Technology: creating more ways for problems to exist while trying to solve problems that never existed
@CitySquirrel this is really problematic. I mean, seriously: interns sending you friends requests on FB, now sexting and opening up the doors to sexual harassment... What's fucking wrong with people.

"Since its beginnings Feeld has been on a mission to normalise sexuality by supporting curiosity and openness."

That's interesting. I myself would like to normalize a healthy workplace by letting Feeld go piss up a rope.
@maliciarogue

@bstacey they are doing so by selling a polyamourous app and now by introducing their shitty bot thing to corporate interactions. Yay.
@maliciarogue I really, really dislike when people bring sexuality into professional settings under the cover of "being sex-positive" or "normalizing open relationships" or whatever. "Hey, baby, I can't help it, I'm sapiosexual."
@bstacey that's a carte blanche for sexual harassment. And I am not even talking about the total weirdness of having sexual life involved in *professional* interactions.

@maliciarogue @bstacey
what a crappy idea

the golden rule is

only EX-COWORKERS
if at all
