I feel like D&D and LARPing fall into this category. I can't thing of anything else though. Fedora collecting?

Think about the term “guilty pleasure” and what’s often cited: things women are “supposed” to like such as romantic comedies, pop music, chick lit. Have you ever heard of anything masculine-coded as someone’s guilty pleasure?
You can believe Jordan Peele, who crushed the box office this weekend, is fucking with us all by crafting a movie that people will ostensibly make out to be more than it is and since he knew that, he put in just enough shit that doesn’t make sense to make you think it all has to make sense and be tied together by…
Beyond the fact that I was entirely entertained, I know that I thought about the movie longer than I normally think about movies afterwards. To me, I’d count that as a success.
And now you're taking credit for it even though you had no say in the matter!
This is going to sound off-tangent, but I blame the rise of corporations. Conglomerates now rule the western world. Politicians are a priesthood who worship and make sacrifices to them. They go into ‘public office’ specifically to help transfer ever more control and power to multinationals.
I’m betting that the airline expected the arbitration process to silence the women. A threat of a $50,000 fine AGAINST THE VICTIM for even bringing a sexual harassment complaint up to arbitration court can silence a lot of victims.
Can someone PLEASE help me understand why the pilots have not been arrested?
Guesses anyone? I’m guessing that there’s plenty of smoke, but no major fires. Maybe enough for a congressional rebuke, but not enough to sink the administration. Plenty of very shady activity, but with just enough cover that someone with a vested interest in seeing innocence will see it assuming some major…
Turns out they ALL did it.
I had drinks with a couple of business acquaintances a couple weeks ago. They are ~23 year old white women starting out in their careers, with college degrees, in a liberal part of the country.
SIGH ugh, and it goes double for trans people
They are too busy infecting the courts with conservative judges to care how embarrassing he is.
Any time they've had a chance to show integrity and sacrifice a little bit of potential power for a greater cause, they've folded like a cheap suit, because they have no principles and only desire power.
You see Republicans squirm now, and it’s just pathetic. When they backed Trump, this is what they signed on for in general, observing his complete disregard for basic human decency, or even pretending to care about basic human decency. On top of that, this is what they specifically signed on for, too - Trump…
I mean, in the sense that an ever-growing portion of the electorate is uniting behind the idea of getting this self-tanner-stain on the Oval Office upholstery the hell out of the White House, he’s not wrong.
Also, LOL at the cognitive dissonance his true believers are going to be shouldering when they have to point at F…
While it doesn’t ever totally go away, the gratuitous nudity gets A LOT better after the 2nd season.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought this paragraph was absolute garbage. God forbid a celebrity want to keep two very scary medical issues private!
Did Clarke need Game of Thrones to wrap up before she felt like she could say anything? (She told the show about her first surgery, but denied it happened with a reporter once called her about it.) Writing an essay about two secret, near-death experiences feels unexpected and rather deliberate in this day of…
So many people are really attracted to larger bodies - folks love them, fetishize them, sexualize them, or appreciate them in all kinds of ways. Whenever I see a comment section like what you describe, I think, how many of these people are dudes who are turned on as FUCK but hate themselves for it for some dumb-ass…
