What’s crazy is if you are pretty good at fighting the normal gambling instincts and understand probability, you can build really amazing accounts compared to others in some of the gacha games and it shows how ridiculous the prices are. I’ve spent $12 dollars on Bleach Brave Souls but the orbs (which you use to try to…

Huh. I’ve only heard of smegma in reference to an uncircumcised penis. Googled it and can refer to both male and female “buildup”

Low tier whales spend about $800-1000/month in F2P mobile games.

About 8 years ago I fell in to Runes of Magic which is just some F2P WOW ripoff. 6 months and 400 dollars later, I uninstalled and swore never again. That 400 bucks maybe put me in the top 50% of characters. I shutter to think of what the top players were paying. I’d get in to the mechanics of HOW it screwed you to…

Welcome to predatory F2p Mobile games, where we make your cute Star Wars Battlefield purchase look like monopoly money. $2k on a f2p game like this is hardly a drop in the bucket.

Pensive Lenny is a truly underrated GIF.

Dan Rather would break me.

I worked at NBC “back in the day” and I know two of the women who contributed to this story and let me just say... yup.

Yes, there is.

I had consensual sex with the guy who raped me. I didn’t want to admit to myself that the dude I thought was a great guy was a rapist. And I bought his weak excuse, because I wanted to believe he was a great guy. Women don’t want bad guys, we want good guys. We want good guys so much, we’ll try to convince ourselves…

I also felt really angry...It’s like a rage that has stayed with me. I don’t think you lose that. Nope, you sure don’t. I’ve been living with it for so many years.

It’s so hard because so many of the people who run the media are exactly like the accused men.

Trick question— there’s no one to interview, because none of them have faced real consequences.

She did a massive edit to it more than a decade after it was initially written, so the version we read is quite different to the version she wrote on the weekend, although obviously it already had many of those themes. By the time she revised it, her two children and husband had died, so it definitely got darker.

The Xanth series is a series of, by 2017, 41 young adult fantasy books heavy on humor and puns, that author Piers Anthony has been writing since the 1970s. Adolescence is kind of a main theme of a lot of them, which is 100% noticeable as an adult but as a kid a lot of that somewhat goes over your head. But also, the…

I feel like “as a mom” and similar sentiments is the education/knowledge version of “I’m not racist, but...” in the sense that nothing good ever follows it.

What kind of parents want LESS help? I want web seminars, classes, libraries and my parenting team to chime in so my kids get whatever info they need.
