you: *makes pendantic point about wording*

I provided one counterexample to counter your original point that people who make money in tech generally help the world. You provided zero evidence, so I don’t think you can complain.

Also, it’s not necessarily true that they fucked people over, but I’d bet money on it. If you think stereotyping rich people is the…

Maybe that’s how they got rich, but how they STAYED rich is fucking people over.

I will stan for Sansa until my dying breath, no matter how much the show tries to fuck up her story line. She’s my girl.

Comatose gods new band name I call it

... so they can grow up to the bright future of having their own children taken away. The lack of logic (among other important aspects of humanity) hurts...

I keep my cat inside, more for his health than for local bird populations. I feel like, living in a human-settled area, we’ve already decimated a shit-ton of local X populations that can’t survive in suburbias. The damage of my cat could do going outside is so small in comparison that I’m not going to worry about it.…

This feels like derailment. I agree with you, but this doesn’t take away from the article’s point. Pointing out the sketchiness behind sweeping horrific violence under the rug for the purpose of advertising the luxurious lifestyle of the most successful oppressors is a good thing. And it doesn’t take away from…

This happened once in front of me! I was so shocked. I was chatting with a pretty liberal person in a semi-professional setting, and she brought up some valid criticisms of Israel.

Pain can definitely result from force (you don’t need to know anything for that, I agree), but tearing is all about lubrication.

This is a risk for depressed people in general. The theory I always heard was that sometimes depressed people are actually too depressed to kill themselves. The antidepressents raise their mood enough / give them enough energy to go through with it.

Naively It seems like anything that helped with depression would run…

lol it seems like you’re missing some basics of vagina anatomy here, but there is no contradiction between “you’re tearing/hurting me” and “you’re not going hard enough.” The first is a lack of lubrication, the second is a lack of force, and the whole thing sounds like you and your gf had some major miscommunication…

I don’t see why we are obligated to respect another country’s government over another country’s people. If a government is killing, robbing, and oppressing people and the people rise up & fight back (or in other ways make it clear they hate the government), I think it’s totally ethical for the US to support the…

Boring person reveals deep ignorance about power dynamics surrounding gender, decides to write a comment about own ignorance. Also simultaneously sounds gratingly pretentious WHILE being incredibly ignorant. You, my friend, hit the I-never-want-to-talk-to-you jackpot.

Agreed, but I also think it’s fair for people to have a moment to note what exactly the problem is. A black man pointing out the comedic value of “white women have suffered.... like you have suffered” IMO clearly exposes the ridiculousness of the whole attitude of comparing different types of oppression and silencing…

Manslation: “I don’t understand statistics and thus examine every individual choice of a model’s gender as isolated and free of larger context.”

IDK, I read that as him criticizing a particular brand of white feminism. Like, he said he agreed that women suffer, and he agreed with feminism. He took issue when she said “we suffer like you have suffered,” which is entirely fucking fair. White women have not suffered the way black men or black women have suffered,…

Is that really the case? I don’t think IUD’s lead to ectopic pregnancies.

I don’t like to look at it like “Clinton sucked” or “didn’t suck.” I think that’s exactly the kind of thought process that led her campaign to consistently disregard her own flaws.

Don’t dispair. The fact is that it was a close race, and Trump got lucky in a few swing states. I think there was probably like a 30-40% chance of Trump winning. But things that have a 30-40% chance of happening.... well, they happen sometimes.
