Just a quick little update: I posted last Saturday about feeling depressed/engaging in self-harm and got so many lovely and encouraging responses (and one troll, but what else can you expect on the internet?) I didn't reply to each one individually because I didn't know how to say thanks without sounding like a broken…

I hate read that and the Gamergate threads that popped up on Reddit and one of the Chans (8chan I think?) because the overlap of the MRA people and GamerGate people is sad and hilarious.

I'm not making this up, in one of the gamergate threads, one of the guys was whining that his girlfriend is a Feminist and he hates…

At this point if a Dexter like character were to emerge and start killing off PUAs I wouldn't be that opposed to it.

Can we also acknowledge the submissive-Asian-woman subtext? *retch*

thank you Anna!

I live in Europe. In Scotland. I live in a very white country in a pretty white continent. With the exception of the one boy who wanted to "lick me all over" - they're all white. Including the creepy creepy creepy old men in Italy.

Does this mean i hallucinated the experience, or your arguement is kind of bullshit?

You mentioned this in passing so I just want to pull it back out of the ether:

Women of color are vulnerable. Women of SIZE are also vulnerable (regardless of color, but especially if they are both of color AND size).

All the discussions sparked around this issue seem to focus entirely on the fact that women are…

I am the second statistic, add in being dommed and tied up, and a famous person, and I'm all in. :)

I dunno. I used to be friends with a pro domme who would occasionally tell me about some of her more extreme scenes, often followed up by reassuring me that, yes, she was being hired to do this by consenting adults. Keep in mind, she'd built a literal, sound-proofed oubliette in her dungeon.

If you're under 30 and you don't vote you get locked out of the internet for 24 hours. BOOM. Massive voter turnout. Get with it Facebook.

I'll preface this with the fact that I've voted in every election since I was 18, so I can't really identify with my cohorts who refuse to do the same. I know how they think in general though, and I think the biggest thing would to make voting ridiculously convenient. Make every high school and college campus a…

On the lower end, reaching out to college students who are often dissuaded from registering in their college town or who can't go home to vote and forget to request absentee ballots.

The individual parts of the ACA each have an approval rating of 75% + . It is only when it is wrapped up and labeled "Black Man Socialist Care" that people are on the fence. Good luck passing a law permitting insurance companies to deny coverage for pre-existing conditions or to lower the age students are covered by…

And then 2018 the GOP gains a foothold again...lather rinse repeat. /cynic

Yeah, if I walked in to work tomorrow and announced that I would be spending all my time trying to destroy my co-worker instead of actually working, I'd be fired. Instead, Kentucky just reelected him.

This. They allowed themselves to be bullied and backed down instead of fighting back. Throughout this election campaign, they were reactionary instead of pro-active.

While the level of crazy for at least the next 4 year is going to be super depressing and funny, the Democrats have nobody but themselves to blame for being in this mess. This is what happens when you let your opponent control the sphere of the narrative on issues, and setting yourself for only reactions to said…

Maybe that's what Mona Lisa was trying for.

I put on my "don't rape me face" today and had ten men tell me to smile.

The best way to meet people with similar interests is to find ways of indulging your interests in ways that bring you in contact with others. Sometimes it's obvious: you can find MeetUps for people with specific interests or volunteering opporunities. Other times you may have to get a little creative - joining groups…
