Employee Performance Appraisal

An annual form completed by MCSO supervisors that justifies giving or not giving you a pay raise. This form is mandated by policy, but no one really cares about them unless they are really super negative. Supervisors hate writing them as they know it's pointless.

Theoretically it documents your performance over the last year, but every commander has different criteria and people just make shit up as they please.
Its time for your annual Employee Performance Appraisal.

performative male

A performative male is one who reads books by women authors, drinks matcha, and carries a tote bag (bonus points if it's artsy) with a labubu pinned to it. Also, wear baggy pants. He likely listens to indie artists like Clairo. The books he reads may include, but are not limited to: The Bell Jar, Intermezzo, and We Should All Be Feminists. His home or room likely has vinyl collections hung on the walls.

Whether or not he understands the feminist themes is up for debate. Apparently, he just wants to be on the feminists' side. And don't ask about his second account on social media. What he posts there is the complete opposite on his main. 🤫
Nico is a performative male. He carries a tote bag (with a lababu pinned) when going out, reads feminist literature in cafes and posts wholesome content on social media that make you feel warm, safe, and think, "Nico is the guy I wanna be besties with". However his priv account is a 180.

Performative Dissonance

The artistic technique or emotional state where a piece of music, art, or a person displays a contradiction between the external appearance and the internal reality — without openly acknowledging it. In music, it refers to the contrast between energetic, upbeat melodies or performative confidence and lyrics that express vulnerability, insecurity, or pain. The juxtaposition reflects the emotional façade people often put on, hiding their true feelings behind a mask of positivity or strength. The key element is that the performance does not break the fourth wall — the song or performance never directly acknowledges the dissonance, instead allowing it to exist in the tension between sound and meaning.
1. Olivia Rodrigo's "Brutal" is a classic example of performative dissonance — the loud, confident sound masks the anxiety and frustration she’s feeling.

2. The song had an overwhelming sense of performative dissonance, where the upbeat rhythm clashed with the loneliness in the lyrics.

Ghost Performer

A ghost performer is someone who fills in for a type of performance or routine if a member isn’t available it could be someone random or someone that a choreographer would know of with the same skill set that would be used in the routine or simply a hired stunt double or someone who can execute a role in a performance when needed.
A ghost performer is needed due to one of our members not being available for our circus routine.
