Yes, I'm sad for Mandy but Ryan is a fucking asshole and always has been. Also, I'd love for those Swifty's heads exploding at the thought of this (not Adultosaur, she's delightful and I am sad for her that she will find this out).

I should have said Old White PrivilegedMan at Work - because these guys are perfectly willing to discriminate against older workers too.

I thought of putting a misandry gif here but this one's funnier.

My approach is that it needs to be done realistically. Like, for example, our free market has created an expectation that every single publicly traded company will beat its forecasts of profitability, and it has to do that four times a year. And if you're profitable, but not as profitable as last year, you're punished.

Who makes 38k/year at minimum wage? Even if you worked two full-time jobs, that would still only get you to 30k/year before taxes.

It's worse than that. It's "everyone can make it in this country is they are well connected enough to get a good job."

Smart gets you nothing when public education is being dismantled and there are no more entry-level jobs, just unpaid or low-paid internships that are handed out according to whose parents donated to…

Well, if you're gonna keep getting your staff members pregnant, it would be rude not to pay for their maternity leave.

"not using condoms is helping perpetuate the idea that they are some awful turn off"

Chafing combined with condom breakage. Which actually increases the risk of HIV. Because, you know, maybe we should listen to sex workers because they are human beings who deserve to be listened to.

I was going to say something about how it's kind of dumb that condoms ruin the fantasy, but then remembered that I have turned off porn because the shoe choice of the performer was just horrendous. I mean why translucent platforms. Why not a nice pair of Louboutins?

this is the most informative comment I have ever read on this subject.

It's a little more complicated than what your everyday dude likes when watching porn. Most performers are against them for safety, health, and choice reasons - especially female performers. Filming scenes can take hours, and condoms increase friction, micro tears, and pain in the vagina and anus. This means female…

And what do the performers think? That might be a nice addition here.

The porn may be fantasy, but the HIV is real.

I just got hard.

Typically I just yell "Last one to finish does the dishes" and make it a race.

So he can be ignored by twice as many people?

Yeah, that was a real douchy curveball after all the cool traits like writing bus stop poetry and, I dunno, trying to crowd fund his love life.

Maybe he could marry Kellie Pickler, so her name would be Kellie Pickler Packer.
