Us doing those things as adults signals to those children that it is OK to do the same. It creates a toxic climate that will push younger people to create the same lists in their own life.  Hopefully you can see that too.

I’m hoping this scandal can open up the door for American teens to start getting the gap year. Seriously, every teenager deserves at least one year off between HS and college and really figure out what they want out of college. Sure, rich kids can go on a year back pack through Europe or whatever, but even working…

Bone to pick: this girl being trash isn’t a hall pass to disparage universities (USC and SDSU in this article alone) that a lot of us worked hard to get into and get through. You don’t sound cool when you suggest these competitive schools are worthless; you sound like an elitisit. If your point is that education is…

an extremely expensive but academically so-so university

I can’t say this is why this particular male athlete decided to quit, as many have pointed out the use of the term “young lady” is demeaning and betrays a fear of losing, but what I will say is that there is a bit of situational stigma around competing against women as a male athlete. In high school, I competed…

I grew up in a family where sports, specifically running, was THE most important thing. My dad coached kids for 50 years...racked up 30 state championships between his boys and girls, including numerous individual state champions, state record holders, and nationally ranked athletes. Growing up in that family, being a…

I think a big part of the reason people recoil at this kind of thing is because the way she treats her employees paints comments like this in a corporate feminist light. In other words, when she refers to “positions of power,” it’s pretty clear that she’s not talking about reshaping the hierarchical culture of…

This will sound like a broke record but this is Exhibit Number 732,524 of why a player of this caliber should never step foot on a playing surface that does not pay for performance. The sheer amount of money made on this event and Zion, Cam, RJ, Cody, Tre and the others don’t see a dime of it. The man’s career could…

What CK did is absolutely harassment. But in the grand scheme of things I also don’t think  it’s “should never work again” levels of bad. He admitted it, he went away for a bit and lost millions and a movie and while it may not be what some people wanted, it’s not nothing. So yeah, I’m the grand scheme of things I…

Guess what? They’re both right.

Spacey then unzipped the accuser’s pants and rubbed his penis, both in and out of his pants, for about three minutes, he told police

“Ocasio-Cortez is still a politician, not the second coming, and she’s just as prone to blunders as any other new member of the House”

If I were in your family, I wouldn't want to get 30 person group text blasts from you anyway. You're abusing the medium. If you need to announce something to 30 people, send an email. If you need to discuss something with 30 people (doubtful) use slack. Otherwise get better at refining your audience.

So this latest allegation: he hit on someone at a party when he was drunk. The newspapers of America don’t have enough ink and paper to cover all the stories of that happening to me. This is like that Franken pile-on-er who said he touched her waist during a photo: total bullshit. (Amet might have a real complaint. The…

Pardon me for being an old fart, and pre-internet internet user (BITNET, anyone?), but this is just more fallout from the terrible misdirection away from self-hosting that happened as the 2000's got underway.

The author of that story (I read it last week) was on a solipsistic rumination about himself and what he perceived as his role in destroying a business he loved.

I get their concern but it seems like another way to prevent the “real world” from encroaching. There will always be rich people, status-seekers, show-offs etc...they will meet up with them in university, first jobs etc...and on weekends. The world is a tough, sucky place a lot of the time, not sure trying to keep…

Well, you bring up the whole problem here:
Blizzard is not being honest.
If they were just honest about their intentions, they would basically be advising old fans that they were moving on. But, they don’t want to do that, because being honest would cost them money.
So they say things like: “It’s a new experience on a…

Go back and read the actual thread. It was a question to a different person looking for clarification, that you have apparently turned into some other kind of narrative for your purposes.

I have not built any strong men. Everything I have said about your position is backed up by your words with quotes provided.

We should most assuredly be concerned about the victims, the point I’m making isn’t about them. It’s about the response we should take to mete out justice to the perpetrators.
