Pretending you’re right and unconscious bias totally isn’t a thing for you, why are you only concerned about qualifications when women being hired is brought up? Why don’t you get upset about positions being full of men when there are female candidates getting passed over disproportionate to their numbers? All those…

Since you’re in the black, anyway, I’ll try to explain it: you say you don’t care, and so do the majority of people, yet white men get picked over and over again. Studies show that people in general - ones who aren’t particularly sexist - consider women to be less capable than men. When women are announced to make 50%…

“This is how you convince men to treat half of the population fairly?” She was rude to you, obviously, but that kind of condescension doesn’t look good as an ally either.

Smorz is sooooo good. It’s sold out almost every time I visit either of my local grocery stores.

Yeah this article is pretty useless for the very small-breasted. What are they gonna do? Watch me fail to fill up a couple band sizes and then tell me to go somewhere else?

Right? I feel like most of these commenters consider themselves to have educated opinions about poor families, but here they are doubting her ability to make decisions for herself. I’d consider taking that money too.

There’s also a time component, though. When I was a kid, I could afford to come home from school and spend the rest of the day dying in Donkey Kong Country. A lot of adult gamers have an hour or two per day max, and I can’t blame them for not spending the time to get good.

Didn’t we already figure this one out? Two difficulties. They could pull a Dungeon of the Endless and make two difficult modes called “Easy” and “Too Easy.”

That’s... a little misleading, if you’re just comparing pot usage to cigarette smoking/heavy drinking. Pot is waaaay safer from a statistical standpoint.

FiveThirtyEight also mentioned how much of her victory speech was devoted to ice cream. Little disappointed that Jez doesn’t have a more in-depth report.

Eh, that’s a good point, but in all of those she talks about ignoring or fighting back rumors or generally having some sort of agency. It’s just my opinion but I think her earlier songs had much more of a victim vibe. “You Belong with Me” was pretty pitiful.

:( It’s not as bad, but when I first went to college, one of the guys who worked at the dorm’s front desk would start talking to me every time I walked by, even when I was obviously trying to leave. I learned his shifts so I could avoid him, and then he used his job to look up my phone number and call me. I wish I’d…

I absolutely agree, but tbf, she’s about 1000x better about this than she was a few years ago. It seems like half her lyrics used to be about how unfair her life was.

I’m hoping they’ll be very different plot-wise. My fear is that the show will share an unexpected twist with the books, but it won’t be properly explained and we’ll have to read the books to make sense of it.

I think a lost of these commenters are too young to remember the Memoirs of a Geisha controversy.

I think it’s less about games themselves than all the demographics they coincidentally focus on. Men, a young age group, heavy integration with the Internet - it’s the perfect combination of factors to result in lonely 14-year olds threatening to rape women. Meanwhile, the women who play games tend to not speak up…

Ughh. If I had to pick one thing that I dislike about this election cycle, it’s that all those other guys made me feel an ounce of short-lived respect for that asshole.

Aw, looks great! Our venue does a lot of other things besides weddings, so I doubt they have anything like that. I was thinking it might be cheaper because we already have some stuff. My grandparents were big into canning and nobody took it up after they passed, so there’s plenty of jars I could use, and my parents…

Ooooh I have questions (if you don’t mind!) Do you have suggestions for table centerpieces? I haven’t figured out whether to do DIY or get them somewhere... Also, any specific decorations you recommend? I’m the first of my friends to get married, and we’re the first in our families who can afford something relatively…

Yeah it’s typically a bad idea to compare different kinds of minorities, but I thought it made a good point in this specific case.
