Well, if there’s a version with a couple little extra spikes on its ears, that’s always going to be a female, although not every female pichu has those. Pikachu is easier to tell because females have a differently shaped tail than males. Like if you look at Pikachu Libre, she has a heart-shaped tail.

This is absolutely stomach-turning. Any time someone tells me “rape culture” doesn’t exist (and yes, I know, “well, actually” brigade, she wasn’t raped in this instance), I point to shit like this; a woman can be assaulted—in the US, Japan, or anywhere else—and the onus inevitably comes back to her, even if her…

I agree with you. While I’m sure there are occasionally people for whom the BBB works, when I worked at Blizzard doing CS, the vast majority of all BBB complaints we heard about were the result of people who either disagreed with our policies or were misinformed. Like, “my 12 year old got banned because he got hacked…

The libertarian argument would say that people would find out about the dangers and people would stop buying the product, therefore the company has a “free market” incentive to not make a poisonous product. (And even then they’re fine with a few people dying so customers can start boycotting a product for being…

In the tapes the CBS lawyers showed, they thought that Eliza cursing on set was all the proof they needed to show that SHE was the problem. The video contained cut and dry examples of sexual harassment happening in real time, and it didn’t even register to them that they were shooting themselves in the foot. But a…

The major issue is in many ways in the name of inclusion they change the one character who was already inclusive. So instead of having a sensitive and multifaceted male character who breaks expectations (that still exists in this genre) we’re now going to have a pointless controversy with none of what made that…

I wonder if the weeaboos constantly shouting about CENSORSHIP! and ARTISTIC INTEGRITY! when art is changed for export to Western countries will pipe up about this. 

I want to say thank you for everything you do. I have been lucky in my life to never have needed an elective abortion, but a few years ago I had a missed miscarriage, and my options were to undergo a medical abortion or a D&C when it became clear after 2 weeks that my body wasn’t going to expel the fetus on its own. I…

Here’s a weird but real danger folks don’t consider of non-supervised (because I’m sure PP would provide this for telemedicine) self-managed abortions:

In my state, an abortion provider must provide a patient receiving a medication abortion with a note for hospitals/medical/emergency care stating the patient is not…

Dear Scottish Rite Dormitory,

Get our name out of your goddamned mouth you cockwombles.

Signed,

Scotland.

Also Lauren, using the one image that Amanda Bynes had issues with that sent her into a body dysphoric shame spiral seems a little unnecessarily cruel, no?  

And both of them were a “who cares about achievements” circlejerk, so what’s your point?

IMO you have to give props just for the amount of hours its taken and the different experiences he’s has. Imagine all the games he’s played that most players would have never even heard of.

It’s never the woman you know either. It’s never the opinionated, happy-seeming, confident woman being abused. It’s never the happy mother, the dedicated wife, the accomplished physician. That woman would never be abused. She would stop it. She would not put up with that kind of thing. Her upbringing didn’t…

oh, Canada... I hope not only is it criminalized to sterilize someone without informed consent, hospitals are forced to do something about the unequal outcomes for indigenous people in the health system generally. A few years back there was the case of a young Ontario girl who didn’t want to have conventional cancer…

Fuck her shitty ass parents. Bill for family vacation... I hope she never pays and it fucks up your credit forever, you trifling, nasty assholes. I hope Discover calls you nightly. I hope this article gets you hate mail.

Tips For Playing Fallout 76:

Yeah but I don’t really feel like “liberals” amplified him. The media amplified him, but if one thing has been made clear about the media over the past ten years or so, it’s that they are nearly all radical centrists. That’s why they amplified Avenatti. He was attacking Trump from the same angle they were: his lack of…

Yeah, it’s a good thing that we haven’t had any major hurricanes or fires in the last year where people are homeless and trying to figure out what they’re going to do.
