Someone at EA saw Kung Fury and was like, let’s do that! It’s what the kids are into on the Internet. It’s retro cool! smh

There was that study that found men’s sexist comments decrease if a peer calls them out on it too. So not only the bad traits. But yeah, I think it’s gotta be a dude who closely fits the acceptable mold of masculinity for that place/age. Otherwise too dismissable.

I like how you included Leaf fans in that

Toronto Maple Leafs fans vs People who actually know how to play hockey...yeah.

Starred for the Leafs diss.

FTR, I was not in attendance

All along I thought true love was the agreement that I wash the dishes and my partner cleans the bathroom, little did I know I should be a goddess in search of a warrior, ha.

Dont Worry, I got ya:

It’s pretty clear, if you’ve followed this at all, that turning to social media was a LAST resort for trying to locate the kid. She left home Aug 11 and the police have been looking for her for at least 48 hours. It’s only when she couldn’t readily be found and they realized she must now be out of her meds that Rosie

Look up the stories about mentally ill being shot by police. It’s not a violation of her privacy. It’s medically necessary information, and it’s information needed for her own safety. If people find her, and know she’s off her medication and battling mental illness, they’re going to approach and treat her differently

My guess is that she doesn't fit cultural norms for women so people want to shame her into losing weight and putting on lipstick or whatever. We live in a sexist society and people hate women with opinions — but especially women they think are unattractive.

When my adult son goes off the rails the VERY FIRST THING I tell the authorities when reporting him missing and/or a danger to himself is that he is struggling with mental illness. It’s a smart move when you’re trying to protect your child.

Why? I don’t understand all this hatred of her. And why is it ok for Trump to specifically call her a fat pig or whatever, and not anyone else?

Or, you know, maybe she was at risk for problems relating to withdrawal or acting erratically. It's actually pretty relevant information.

A drug addict who willingly gave her up for adoption. Your feelings for someone you only know from when she’s in front of the camera aside, who do you think would really make a better mother for a child with mental illness, a rich celebrity or a poor drug addict?

Technically it is also a most of a paragraph (minus the three words “So here goes:” We’ll call that a rounding error.)

I feel like neither of those thoughts demonstrate either empathy or compassion for a fellow human being and her family who are, it seems, going through some rough shit. I like a contrarian as much as anyone else, but come on.

Though she would clearly like to see Dave in one.

I am also Team Logan. And I genuinely worry for people who are Team Jess.

Does it have internet? Lotta good things on that internet.
