A better question than all of that hysterical nonsense you just asked me is why the hell are you so worked up over criticism of Hollywood trends? I’m putting my money on “pissy DC fanboy” but I’m open to being wrong.

Gross. As a poly bisexual woman, nothing makes my vadge shut tight faster than a male partner’s insistence that he’s sexually entitled to my female partner.

This is horrific discrimination against the incompetent and as an incompetent person, I would like to see better and fairer treatment of my people. ‘Ooh, you need to know how to do things!’ ‘You need to know basic facts!’ It’s political correctness gone mad and also fascism probably.

DO YOU WANT SUPER ATHLETIC ZOMBIE PEOPLE?!?

BECAUSE THIS IS HOW YOU GET SUPER ATHLETIC ZOMBIE PEOPLE.

Also, bisexuals exist. Or so I’ve heard.

This. ESPECIALLY in the utopic Star Trek future, why does everyone have to be at the ends of the Kinsey scale? Maybe Sulu is mostly gay, but that one hot chick he experimented with in college had a kid. Or maybe he WANTED a kid, and she was like, I’m game! Non-traditional families people!

Yeah, plus wouldn’t the goal of an advanced society be the separation of sex and love, anyway? What’s the functional point of requiring people pair up unless you’re worried about inheriting wealth or giving specific rights to property?

No you see, bi people (especially bi men) don’t exist so you have to be exclusively attracted to vag or peen for your entire life no take-backs.

This is kinda similar to the whole controversy where Iron man will be a black teenage girl, Captain America’s role is assumed by a black man, Thor is a woman, The Hulk is an Asian teen, etc.

fwiw I’m not so much “pro-Mayo” as I am anti-Miracle Whip

MIRACLE WHIP IS GARBAGE, BOBBY

Ugh I fucking love Mary Lynn Rajskub. All of the stars just for saying her name.

I’m rewatching ANTM right now (I’m going through the slowest breakup in history and my brain needs junk food). I’m on the season with Melrose and Caridee and I have this to say: Tyra Banks is crazier than a shithouse rat and I love her.

I think he’s some kind of Buffverse-type demon that attracts the rich and beautiful and can exert some kind of control over them, like making them sit in each others’ laps for instagram photos and such for some nefarious reasons. I’m sure Anya or Giles have the details. Karlie Kloss (sp?) is her demon companion. She…

Car insurance is also more expensive overall if you pay on a monthly basis rather than every six or twelve months.

That’s a huge generalization and oversimplification in the first place, but there’s a great book that addresses your point. It’s a really eye-opening read: Scarcity: why having too little means so much. It discusses decision-making (and other behaviors) when you have limited resources (both time and money). Side note:…

As a former Bank of America employee, I saw this far too often and it gets worse. They also used a trick where they would process your largest debits first and smaller ones last, so if you had $1950 in your checking account and you had a $1500 rent payment, a $500 insurance payment and then say 4 charges for things…

There are definitely more systematic examples like the one you mention, and like I said, we’ve covered those before, but this is more about the additional, more blatant expenses that cost more because you’re poor.

This breezes right past some of the larger problems, like owning an older car which has a greater need for repairs, living in a poorer neighborhood where there are only small, more-expensive markets, buying clothes that are less durable. Nutrition also suffers because there are fewer choices and less “healthy” food…

I fucking hate the way that the “white girl” meme has morphed from a tool for women of color to talk about white women’s complicity in white supremacist systems into a way for people to spew gross misogyny under the guise of calling out racial privilege.
