He’s either got a cloning machine or a bunch of imaginary friends.

The real Devil’s Triangle is about to happen: Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch & Bart/Brett Kavanaugh-whose talent for lying is only exceeded by the Cheeto in the White House; those three together on the Supreme Court. What a complete shit show. The depths we’re sinking to continue to exceed my wildest nightmares about…
63% of white men voted for Trump. In this run-up to midterms, I do get a little fatigued by all the media’s “Will women come out/vote in force against Trump/the GOP?”, as if it is up to women (once again) to always be right do right, cuz we know men sure as fuck will not. Particularly women of color: “We ignore you…
I see it like this: If a person chose not to vote, that was a vote. At the end of the day, those who could not be bothered to care voted for white supremacy.
Of course it’s achievable, the question is: Will there ever be the massive, unprecedented political capital necessary to overhaul this system, given how many powerful corporations are set to lose hundreds of billions of dollars if it ever comes to that?
Yes, more gays in movies!
“Despite what people might think, there are far more from folks who just want to meet up, talk about their life with a stranger, and enjoy seeing their surroundings through new eyes.”
Honestly, hooking up or chatting up people online while I studied abroad REALLY improved my vocabulary. Seriously. I had to look up lots of terms and learned a lot of slang (because sexual terms and flirting are rarely fun if you aren’t using colloquialisms IMO.)
Following around strangers might sound creepy but this was the only way I was able to enjoy places with a really aggressive cat-calling/foreigner groping culture when I was younger. Morocco was a nightmare, for example, until I started simply lookign out for older, conservative-looking married couples and following…
I enjoy how you did not get an answer to this ridic thread. Yeesh, that guy.
I believe it will happen in my lifetime. Hillary won the popular vote despite all the baggage Republicans have been piling on her for 25 years.
I agree—I interpreted it as the present in an alternative timeline where different advances had been made (they have extremely advanced AI and virtual reality, but bad monitors). It’s an interesting idea that WWII or something had different outcomes—I noticed Owen’s apartment had what looked like a Japanese-style…
Also all the smoking everywhere, even indoors, and I’m all “We TOTALLY went back to the 80s somewhere in this timeline.” ;)
Same! I really enjoyed it. I think party due to that retro-future feel it nails. It reminded me (visually) of a lot of things I grew up watching. I thought the cast nailed it.
in a not-so-distant future where people can rent friends and pay for subway rides and dinner by listening to a person read ads out loud.
Sounds exactly like the fucking piece of shit I dated at 21 for a year. Did a number on me until I finally woke up and just never spoke to him again. That’s right millennials, I invented ghosting back in 1996.
Those text messages are so hard to read because they remind me of my own past. The day after my ex strangled me I woke-up and texted him “You are not bad.” I’ll never be able to to forget that I said that.
See, also, Hugo Schwyzer and Eric Schneiderman. Men who pushed their feminism hard and also loved to abuse women and use their power to prevent women from fighting back and reporting on their bullshit.
This is the perfect hunting ground for the “woke” mysogynist. Women have been fighting so hard, and for so long, to be listened and believed. When some rando comes along, and recites the proper feminist codewords, there will always be someone who falls for it, feeling grateful she’s heard and understood.
It makes me sick her mother not only ignored his abuse, but has turned against her daughter. Sure she is likely abused as well, but some part of me screams THAT’S NO EXCUSE.
