Worried that someone might mistake you for more awesome than you actually are?

Most theaters don’t allow masks so no fursuits at the theater.

OK so you understand that there are situations wherein “doing what you want” does in fact harm others. The question is now, how do you determine when you’re harming someone? Well one pretty obvious way is if they tell you. If Black people say it’s appropriation for white people to wear cornrows, that’s an indication

“I do what I want and fuck you if you don’t agree” is pretty obviously self-serving. Furthermore, it is childish to pretend that any harm caused by you “doing you” is acceptable because anyone who points it out is just a “hater”. Sometimes a thing you really want to do hurts someone else. That’s why it’s important to

I would be very interested to hear something Republicans are right about. As far as gender balance, why are literal decades of a men-only court acceptable but a hypothetical women-only court is “unbalanced”?

?

That attitude, applied to a whole culture, is not just self-serving but actively harmful.

“Balance” is unnecessary. I’d rather have progress.

Hey now. We don’t have any evidence that she isn’t immortal.

How about another 6?

Yeah. I dismissed their reply to me but I can’t do anything about their other posts...

I think it’s awesome that you are actively working against a campaign you seem to support by presuming to know someone’s interests better than they do!

Encouraging politically-minded young people to get into politics is great but it does nothing to address the problems with current candidates. It’s like telling someone with a leaking faucet to become a plumber. That ignores how much effort is required to become a plumber and in the mean time it does nothing to fix

Cultural appropriation is when a dominant group takes something (a practice, music, clothes, etc) from an oppressed group, removes its context, and incorporates it into the the dominant culture. This is accompanied by preventing the oppressed group from accessing the thing, either by actually suppressing it or by

Have you ever seen Supersizers Go/Eat [time period]? It’s another Giles Coren program wherein he and Sue Perkins eat the food and (to some extent) live the lifestyle of various time periods. Their 1950's episode is the only reason I’m aware of the extent of rationing in the UK.

The reason “period” has come to mean the same thing as “menstruation” is due to another salient meaning of “period” as a specified division of time: the menstruation period. The “menstruation” part was dropped, similar to how “sphincter” has come to mean specifically “anal sphincter” despite the fact that there are

Mayotonilla said the CDC should have advocated for better and greater access to reproductive health. You said the CDC is unable to advocate for that but that they do provide information. I said merely providing information doesn’t help the issue of lack of access.

“Spider” is the English word for an “air-breathing arthropod with eight legs and chelicerae with fangs that inject venom”. It’s not a replacement work we use in polite company because the more accurate term is unpleasant or embarrassing. “Period” is a term used because the accurate term “menstruation” is deemed
