“#notallmen” in the sense that she seeks to break male domination in the field of elected representatives.

Hmmm, that’s an interesting concept that makes quite a bit of sense. It’s roughly analogous to the harbor pilots that take over commercial ships from the normal captain as they approach port. They board via a small transport craft, bring it in, dock it, take it back out, then return via another little shuttlecraft.

He’s such a douche. And his form didn’t “[go] to hell”, it was never there in the first place. Look at that setup, are you fucking serious? Get your ass down, straighten the spine, and head up before you even start the lift you silver spoon dipshit. I don’t fake-crossfit nearly as much as this clown and can see the…

40 hours of grinding to unlock the big cheese is acceptable in F2P games like World of Warships, but not in a game you’ve already sprung $60 for.

Sad but true lyrics. My significant other can be somewhat bigoted, and I’ve had some success asking them to empathize with black people instead of judging (especially on victimless behavior, or things she’s culturally unfamiliar with). I’m like, “A black guy did everything “right”—married, college, father figure,…

I came for the imaginative use of “maintenanced”, but I starred for the it’s-almost-cruel-because-it’s-so-true-but-then-again-they’re-Trump-cultists-and-racists-so-fuck-them portrayal of the rest of their miserable lives. That insight is also why I try to stay optimistic about the long-term: most of these fuckers will…

Dude I’m with you, American-market cars (niche and Ford global products aside) don’t sell because they’re either total shit or completely unsuitable for foreign markets. There is practically no circumstance in which a Japanese consumer would justifiably choose an American option over their JDM alternatives.

No, they don’t; that’s just a dollop of sensationalism on top of a story that didn’t need it. Sharks bump, bite, and run into whatever they find interesting enough to potentially be a meal. They don’t know a whale carcass from a drifting boat until they investigate a little, sometimes repeatedly, while their wee shark…

I’m glad these women are safe and alive, but in all honesty they are clearly incapable, incompetent mariners who have no business sailing anything more robust than those little swan paddleboats in a small lake.

I think there’s one way to learn, trial and terror.

I have a long-running Civ 5 game where, with the aid of ridiculously overpowered Roman Legionaries, my ultimate goal is to win by having all of the enemy cities freely decide to join my Civ. Slowly but surely my cities influence their neighbors and encroach their borders with massive culture discrepancies, until one…

Harsh take if you’re including the original MkI Focus which was a brilliant car in every way given the price, except perhaps for long-term reliability. (But then again since when has “reliability” ever stopped someone that’s into cars? See: Romeo, Alfa.) If MkIs were ever considered jokes contemporaneously, it was…

Bummer man sorry to hear it. My sympathies to all those who’ve suffered loss, her included.

I’m with you. The song just doesn’t play well to my ears.

Oh I wholeheartedly agree with you there, I’m just play-acting the response of mouthbreathers all across America for whom reading is a bar too high. Statues or it didn’t happen for them, apparently.

Can’t watch the video at the moment, but does he cover the “If you take down the statues, how will we know about our history?” argument? Probably so, right?

I had a 1996 Z34 Monte Carlo! As a high-schooler in the late 90s, it was a fantastic car. It wasn’t drop-dead gorgeous, but was reasonably attractive in its generic way especially in bright red. It was decently quick, made a lovely snarl at high revs, had a masssssssive trunk, was comfortable/roomy inside, and the…

Holy god yes, this one thousand times over. Took me 5.5 years to get out but the tail... Lord the tail was never-ending.

Very true words here, I can do naught but agree. No apology needed.

I’ve heard of the Green Book before and remain outraged that shitty white people forced black tourists into creating/needing it just to travel across their own goddamn country.
