So those of us who are actively working against that...what did we do?

White dreads are disgusting, smelly, and bad. Black locs are generally neat and smell like normal clean-person hair.

Hey now, he will not allow this to stand.

Cool, thanks bb!

Thank bb. You found me out: I’m actually a sentient tangerine. We’re a very liberal bunch.

Do you really take internet commenting that seriously? I do it to dick around waiting for people to reply to my emails, and to work out my thought process or practice arguments in a situation where it doesn’t matter. If you came into this with the expectation that your comments are doing something for the world, and…

Whoop, there it is. False equivalency between people who are in the right and bigots. Done with you.

North Carolina law regarding making video available is changing next week, so they’re probably just trying to push back until then, unfortunately.

Imagine being so callous and just...self-centered. I would be sad if I weren’t so done feeling emotions for spoiled manbabies.

Ugh, I know you’re right and yet...kinja is a sickness.

Nope! I don’t care about intent--it was mansplaining, or at least condescending. Doesn’t matter how they intended it--I feel free to trust my own experience of the situation, backed up by others who felt similarly.

Are you implying that my original point was absurd? Considering this is on an article about a man who has no fucking understanding of women as humans, only as objects for his enjoyment, then yea, someone who comes in and acts as if female opinions only matter if they approve of them is gonna rub me (and others) the…

Enjoy finding someone else to play word games with--I usually prefer crossword puzzles, but maybe you’re a more social player than I am!

Nope. I’m not playing that semantics game. If you can’t figure out what I meant by “everyone” in the context of a message board chat, then you’re either not prepared for this level of conversation, or deliberately parsing language in a disingenuous and frankly absurd manner.

Or, maybe, and this is a crazy idea so just go with me:

People are telling you it didn’t come across that way. Because the purpose of communication is generally to transmit an idea to another person, if your idea is getting warped in transmission, it makes sense to see how it could have been stated more effectively to get the point across. You cannot control how people…

Man, maybe we should declare a day of mourning for Texas men who will never get to kiss on her :(

“That is fair” is such a succinct way of saying, “hey little lady, I guess this cute lil opinion of your’s is acceptable to me, and that’s what matters.”

Those are federal prisons only--the vast (vast) majority of prisoners are at the state level. Basics can be found on the first page of this:

Have you ever been in a protest where people start to get violent? Do you have any idea how scary it can be? Especially when you don’t know that person, how do you know they won’t come for you?
