I was going to add, that even if they cleaned up and worked on themselves; I think the reason that women don’t respond to them is because we are ultra sensitive to possible danger from men so that we can pick up nonverbal cues of anger and hostility.  We know know when men hate us.  And we want nothing to do with them.

I love that contra points video...

I think there’s probably a lot more traction in preventing men and boys from falling into that culture in the first place, and that does require active engagement from other men/fathers/etc. I have three sons, and one of my nightmares is waking up and realizing one of them has fallen into some toxic internet…

Exactly! Your reward for satisfying your debt is a higher interest rate should you ever desire more debt.

From what I’ve read about these guys, they want an attractive woman to have sex with them. That’s it. I’ve not seen them complain about the lack of a relationship, only the lack of sex.

But Bustos still isn’t ready to disavow anti-choice Democrats. She said in her statement that she still believes in “our big tent Democratic caucus” and warned progressives that “every dollar spent trying to defeat one of our Democratic incumbents is a dollar that we cannot spend defeating Republicans.”

Absolute parallels to white supremacist history as told through a fantasy lens. The writing forgot major themes, sweep and the majesty of multi-layered storytelling. The direction sucked whenever a character’s emotional range needed to be shown. But the cinematography was epically beautiful and most scenes from this…

I too have a life-long inability to understand how social situations work, which is why I really don’t want to talk to the person I’m paying to ferry me from one point to another.
I’m with you that the silence is uncomfortable in a 1 on 1 situation, but I like it a lot more than the anxiety from small talk with a total…

I think the only thing that should be expected of drivers is basic courtesy stuff, ask how the passenger is and then let the passenger determine the conversation level. Do people really rate drivers lower for failing to initiate chit chat? I get if they’re being rude to the passenger and not answering, but this seems…

Lost in all the feuding over the last episode, the final scene between Jaime and Tyrion was GoT at its best. That is what a powerful scene feels like when it’s been earned.

I’ll make sure to tell all the training and such types at the Army we’re using the wrong terminology.

This isn’t what I would prefer, but they seem to be foreshadowing it more and more. 

Who Died Tonight? All of those Parents who Named their Children “Dany” over the last four years.

Yeah, there was no reason for Cleganebowl at all, other than that D&D thought it was “owed” to the characters and the fans.  Which shows how fundamental their misunderstanding of the source material is.

Asks to see the manager, burns the Red Keep anyway.

Awful episode in terms of narration, fantastic in terms of visuals.

I think depictions of what we would today call war crimes should be jarring.  

The leaks were spot on. Well done random reddit dude #475.

That likeness isn’t corpulent enough.

I hope I never have to go to the laundromat again.
