“Donnybrook” and “big fleshpile” used in the same clip. Wonderful.

Hey, Bishop McDevitt H.S.:

She’s going to cherish her memory of being on the show and high school will fade away for her like it does for everyone else.

Or, for a real challenge, a relationship between a female lead character and male supporting character that has zero romantic component, but is still an actual relationship and not a vehicle for exposition or crappy subplot. Like Star Trek: Voyager, but consistently well written.

this tired literary and film device also reinforces simplistic thinking like this in “real life”. When involved in a lawsuit against an employer for sexually harassing me (amongst other types of harassment and discrimination), the defense was able to gain access to information that I had been sexually abused and…

Right? This is the thing: I just don’t need to see it any more. It’s become a sort of bullshit shorthand for “serious” treatment of female characters. You want to show me what a great auteur you are? Show me the relationships between your (named female) characters. Show me a sisterhood, or a mother-daughter…

It’s an extremely tired trope. I’m also so sick of seeing it everywhere. Also included in tired female tropes ‘not being able to have babies'

well yea that’s the point — if one of these two very different industries must require fingerprinting and licensing, then i wouldn’t pick strippers first

Ugh at this topic. I’m glad you got someone who actually does localization as a profession for the podcast, because being bilingual and playing Japanese games, I feel like a lot of these anti-PC, anti-“censorship” people don’t fucking get that a lot of shit in Japanese games literally won’t make any goddamn sense in…

Try out Big Screen (also free, currently in Beta on steam). It’s a series of simulated rooms in which you can use your PC as normal, but on a customized VR screen (like the payware Virtual Desktop) but the environment is shared, so you can screen-peek each other. Even works when playing other games. Also you can throw…

How big was that burrito? I'm having chicken tacos.

I usually add: a seed is not a tree, an egg is not a chicken, a fetus is not a person.

Came here to say just this. Anyone who claims they oppose abortion in general but think it’s okay in the case of rape or incest is making crystal clear that they do not believe fetuses are people and could not give less of a shit about them. They just want to punish women for having sex.

I think she and her clan believe that all babbies are #blessings that allow a woman to fulfill her earthly purpose. It's a cooing lil consolation prize from Jesus.

And yet, it’s still the woman who is punished by being forced to carry a pregnancy to term against her will.

For the millionth time.

“I do not believe in America it is right to punish innocent people for someone else’s crime; that is not our system of justice,” she said. “The baby did nothing wrong, the woman did nothing wrong. The man who raped the woman is the one who done [sic] something wrong and should be punished.”
