Seriously, it’s like herding cats. If cats were racist, sexist, homophobic, ignorant, anti-science garbage creatures that fed on scotch and second wives.

I cut anyone who eats melons. I despise the smell of them. Otherwise, I’m very tolerant of other people’s eating preferences.

Okay, but how she looked is still not relevant to whether or not it’s okay for her to try to force a kiss on an unwilling person. Her self-esteem or lack thereof is not relevant to whether or not it’s okay for her to try to force a kiss on an unwilling person. Whether or not she had lots of sex or no sex or anything…

I like CSPAN, but his HDMI1 joke cracked me up

How are we to distinguish intent when what we must rely upon is behavior? Rather than trying to parse what is internal and therefore implied, but not wholly visible, by over examining every action is pointless. If McGorry or any celebrity discussed another political issue, like the ever-popular environmental causes,…

Yeah I don’t get it. I mean, I know he talks about feminism a lot, but there are reasons for that.

Well that’s about how it ends up, but here’s how it works:

The Cinder Spires: The Aeronaut’s Windlass by Jim Butcher

The stigma against men working with kids (and other related stigma) is not really about sexism against men though. It stems from the same cultural biases that say that masculinity is superior to femeninity. Things like working with children are seen as feminine and inferior, therefor any man who wants to work with…

The primary defect of The Red Pill is that most of the people who control where that dialogue goes have been evolutionarily deselected by women for not being interesting, attractive, empathic, masculine, kind, thoughtful, or successful

He’s right about universal white privilege; I seriously doubt being white confers any advantage upon you in the event of proximate supernova explosion or depressurization in the vacuum of space.

Men won’t need to put on dresses with this asinine legislation, they’ll just be able to walk in male-presenting and say they’re a trans man. Goodbye existing barrier of entry! Think about it for just one moment with your rational mind, these laws are 100% about discrimination against trans people, 0% about protecting…

When I was in high school the fights between girls were always the most brutal. And if it wasn’t a physical fight it was terrible bullying that was also brutal. The myth that girls are supposed to be gentler, kinder, weaker than men hurts teenagers a lot. This is just a theory but I think some girls have so much anger…

In 7th grade, a bunch of kids were fighting in the cafeteria and I remember a girl jumped from a cafeteria table onto the HEAD of a girl who was lying on the floor.

As it turns out, hiring undocumented workers is illegal. Working without authorization....well, it really isn’t.

Well, I admitted that student loans are a real problem. They’re lumped into that list because that list comprises the majority of “serious” thinkpieces I come across by writers who are engaging in the problems that they know. I didn’t mean to categorize them as all occupying the same level of importance.

I still benefit from this kind of permissiveness as a poor white person. In the UK where I live you can get government assistance with housing costs - but many landlords will not accept this arrangement. They put “no DSS” on their adverts - “no department of social services funding allowed”, they mean.

As someone who works in a group home shelter for abused foster kids, I can only personally speak to the first part of this article and say that, for all the attempted subterfuge our kids go through to dodge the Rules, we almost always know when they’re doing it — we just sort of let it go (as long as it isn’t anything…

love that she threw on the jordan jersey to really get into character, but like, not SO much into character that she’s not still basic!
