Thanks, this thread was sorely missing a sea lion.

“What atrocity has not been done to men in human history?” Men have never been forced to carry and give birth to a child they didn’t want.

What is this internalised misogyny of which you speak? Is it widespread?

goodness I love this team. 162-0 here we go!

Yes, I think Albert concentrated on the social aspect of the “rule”. But the business impact is important. Some of us have jobs that, say, require us to entertain clients or meet with prospective buyers. The men promulgating this “rule” seem to live their business lives in a world where “S. J. Adams” is always Sean…

Yeah, he’s the reason the glass ceiling still exists. It’s ok for men to get to know male colleagues and business associates over dinner, but it’s not ok for them to do the same with women. The most valuable connections are often made outside the office.

No issues with Team Puerto Rico’s style of play, pride in their team, etc., but this shit is nothing more than them being sore-ass losers. If Team USA had printed victory shirts, you can bet dollars to donuts Team PR would have been red-assed over it too . . . it’s time-honored tradition of playing with a chip on your…

We’ll know it’s legit when a painting of J.Lo as a centauride surfaces.

The State legislature just gave the AG the power to file these lawsuits. Maryland wanted to be in on the first one, but any such lawsuit had to be signed off by the governor, and our current Republican governor just never responded, effectively preventing any action. So now there’s a workaround.

I automatically assumed she was the wife because the guy is a Korean expert and probably lived in Korea, where there aren’t many white women to marry.

This made me laugh.

Did nobody notice the kids look Asian AF?

Agreed. It was disappointing to see how many people were identifying her as the nanny or child-minder without really knowing.

or! or! Dad is on live TV, doing his job, where his credibility, knowledge and professionalism is being showcased - you know something that some people might consider to be important and a big deal, and having the kids barge in there making a racket might kinda make him look unprofessional and a panicked spouse…

Way too many people assuming that she must be the nanny because she’s Korean.

I pegged nanny—and that is how implicit bias works folks! If you do it, own up to it and hope it helps you be better in the future.

I never noticed this before, but now that everyone is pointing it out I’ve realized I now have one think to like about ARod.

Respectfully disagree. Best Album is not just about best vocals. That’s why it’s not called Best Vocals on an Album. Which album was more artistically significant? Which album had something to say? Which was more likely to affect people’s hearts and minds?

First, let me say that overall I agree with you that it takes a multi-faceted approach to solve the problem of racism in the US. However, I’m not sure ‘scale’ is exactly an issue per se. Macro approaches only really work if you have some combination of imposition from above and groundswell of support. Davis’s…
