You know, if white women wanna do yoga, that’s cool. But spending piles of money on leggings or spending piles of cash on classes (when really...I feel like for-profit yoga kind of defeats the heart of the practice) just doesn’t jive with me.

Also, fuck quinoa. It doesn’t taste that great, its original users can’t…

Took a music appreciation class; instructor hated Elvis Presley. I was basically told that the thing to do in the 30s-60s was to rip off black people, “white it up” and sell it as your own because let’s be honest, it’s not like legal representation was going to lean in the favor of a non-white back then anyway.

Maybe create a city that’s specifically for the games. During the actual games, it’ll do well off the usual tourism, TV exposure and everything else. When the games aren’t going in full swing, maybe it can host training programs, other events, and probably still be a good tourist spot. Give it its own governance, like…

I met a woman during an internship in college who was absolutely happy about going to Dubai. When she told me, it was all I could to say, “have fun in that slave-labor run, not-friendly-to-women-or-foreigners, hedge-fund-bubble, not-actually sustainable shit hole.

There’s only so much you can say when she’s really hot…

America is seriously in need of help when it comes to life/work balance. I mean, loyalty to your work organization is great, but it’s “work” and it needs to remain a somewhat separated, professional relationship. And when you pair that with a companies that demand great loyalty but refuse to reciprocate, being asked…

It’s like you have to look at the parents of the kids your own kids will hang out with. It’s messed up because I don’t want my kids living in an echo chamber, but when there are some really fucked up people outside it...

“SEND ME X BECAUSE I DESERVE IT.”
“HA, YOU SENT IT, NOW YOU’RE A SLUT.”

I was thinking the same. Along with, “well that’s part of the problem right there.”

Both, actually.

The toxic/cyclical misogyny makes guys easily manipulated. They can’t see that it’s stupid to feel “entitled” to women and simultaneously obligated to be judged by ones ability to attract women - when women are actually entitled to put their attentions on whomever they please. A guy gets mad that he…

I feel like there should be rules for games with combat in cities.

1.) If it’s a shooter title, there needs to be a blend of ranged and close quarters combat, inside and outside of buildings.
2.) If it’s a brawler, then you gotta be able to grab improvised weapons and use the environment to your advantage.
3.) If it’s…

Hey, his marriage is traditional.

And so was his extra-marital affair.

I’m pretty sure that most conservative leaders of the past would be Democrats in today’s landscape. Pretty sure that Jesus was a hippie by comparison and would probably be chased out of an evangelical church unless God himself sent the pastor an email.

“including misusing taxpayer funds to hide their affair”

That’s really sticking to the guns of responsible tax revenue usage right there, Tea Party.

Rousey is one hell of a person, but that doesn’t make her an actor. I’d rather send a trained and experienced actor off to do a year of physical training because those results are a lot easier to guarantee than training to be an actor in a year.

Natural disasters and accidents happen. But shootings seem to be something we can, as a society, avoid. We’re all happy that these medical pros are looking out for each other. We’re sad that they have to do this.

I love that this is a tradition. I really do.

I hate that they have to do this.

Toxic masculinity and its death cycle.

We’re obligated to do and be certain things while also supposedly entitled to certain things. Going without either fucks with the programming.

We’re supposed to be take-charge, high-motivation people. We’re supposed to be virile and sexually desirable. We’re supposed to be the…

“african american/asian/middle eastern/hispanic male, close to mother, shoots and kills dozens”

Because default race is white, and we modify that by adding skin/ethnicity as identifiers. Seems innocent but can be pretty harmful.

I can imagine this car in a heist. I can imagine the frustration and hilarity during a chase or getaway in the Robin.

It’s not, actually.

Some people - likely, the worst people on all parts of the political landscape seem to be choosing their political stance based on a sense of belonging to a group and gaining an identity and less than policy and consequences/effects of that policy. They’ll shutdown outside ideas because they come…
