The way I see it, it IS a complex science issue but that doesn’t make it NOT a feminist issue. As Dr. Church said, they were leaving out younger researchers. A lot of younger researchers are women. Science has issues properly valuing ANYBODY who isn’t part of the older white male establishment.

I really wanted CRISPR to be a bio-refrigeration technique.

When Colbert would say “I don’t see color” that was a parody of stupid things white people say. Colorblind does not equal inclusion, and nothing is preventing him from actively recruiting a more diverse staff. The blind packets are just a way for comedy shows to get away with maintaining the same status quo. Diversity…

“We want to thank everyone who’s not on this stage who worked on the show. Our writers won last week for Writing in a Variety Series. I’m so proud of those guys — and one woman. Sorry for that, for some reason,”

Yes, police officers who work on the streets do, in theory, put their lives on the line every day and, those who are not murderous, racist, bastards, should be lauded for that. But enough with the bull shit “being a cop is the most dangerous job so they have a right to be so afraid for their lives that they have itchy…

This is a classic Michael Bay image. Good looking dudes in great physical shape staring into the middle distance, helicopter/tank/armored vehicle in background and dudes holding guns close to their groins so we all know that it means PENIS!

Your comments are the longest comments I’ve replied to, I swear.

oh wow, have your comments been working out?

find what you love and let it kill you

Huh. Have you told European men? Many of whom actually cross their legs and have no issues?

If your balls are really that sensitive to the pressure of your own goddamn thighs then maybe you should give up your seat altogether and let them dangle.

“I don’t care if my invading your personal space and squishing you against a wall makes you uncomfortable because my comfort is more important!”

See? It actually doesn’t go both ways. All I’m asking for is people to stay within the confines of their own seat. You are advocating for men, specifically, to be able to…

Has it occured to you that others don’t “give two shits” about your feeling uncomfortable?

I guess you never had a brother you had to share the backseat with, huh?

When I was still fat, my favorite thing to do was to just take up my own seat instead of hunching over to give the manspreader room. They’d get really pissed off, because it meant they either had to stay in their own goddamn seat or be pressed up against a disgusting fat woman. They usually chose the former, but they…

.....in order to allow their balls more breathing room than my entire body.

I went to the symphony a couple of months ago and I could hardly pay attention because they guy next to me spread so much that his thigh was pressed against mine while my thighs were clenched together. It was fucking miserable. He just did just did not give a fuck.

I haven’t encountered it much, since I don’t usually use public transit. But man, that one time when I was in the center seat on an airplane... I had it from both sides (and they were asleep which tempered my will to say something... need to work on the passivity).

I had a man friend who whined “but it’s not cooooomfortable” when I side-eyed his manspreading.
