Fuck those dudes. My father’s an artist, and he taught me to have overwhelming respect for artist models when I was a squeamish pre-teen (“ewww... they’re naked”). These people do such a service to the arts by helping artists learn to draw the human body. What asses to take advantage of that.

OK, no one is “asking for it” nor should that ever be an excuse for deplorable behavior. However, let’s also not stick our head in the sand and play dumb. Sex sells and, yeah, sometimes streamers are intentionally using that to gain viewers.

Well she’s also married to a rapist. So it’s not terribly surprising.

This is a very Republican heavy district (PA 7th). I’ve lived here most of my life. Before Meehan, we had Joe Sestak (D) for two terms and before that Curt Weldon (R) for 10 terms. The district map being completely skewed to favor (R)‘s over helped Meehan get his house seat. Our county council just had two (D) voted

How does this not immediately trigger an investigation from CPS?!

Somehow Trey is the most infuriating.

This article made me cry. I was assaulted by a tattoo artist at a convention, while I was getting a tattoo from him. I was immediately uncomfortable, because as soon as he started working on me, he began making both complimentary and derogatory comments (all were sexually explicit) about other women at the convention

I wanted to see who the monstrous pieces of shit who didn’t report Nassar were, and one of them, Destiny Teachnor-Hauk, is on the MSU website, where I learned that she has multiple children, and three are named: Storm, Xtreme and Legend Pain.

Me too. I already made the switch to only dealing with women and it feels great. I love giving my money to women, plus the added benefit of being treated like a human being is pretty sweet.

I went in for my 2nd tattoo when I was 18, showed the guy what I wanted, he proceeded to make fun of me relentlessly for my idea, disappeared for 20 minutes, and came back with this garish purple flower monstrosity and convinced me that this was wayyy better and my original idea was stupid. Being so young and still

I’m at the point in my life where I only want to deal with women. Doctors, tattoo artists, hair dressers, dentists, car mechanics... fuck it. I’m done.

Yeah, seems like this was a time bomb, just waiting to go off. Glad I don’t watch, or write weirdly self-congratulatory, fawning pieces about her show. On the other hand, her impression of Sean Young’s shoulders in Blade Runner is spot-on.

As always, XKCD has this covered:

I had an awkward meeting with a woman who was well above me in the food chain at a previous job. The entire 15-minute meeting in her office, she was leaning forward awkwardly, and her blouse drooped down, exposing pretty much her entire upper torso. I fastidiously maintained eye contact and silently willed her to lean

Counterpoint: It’s good when done right. A thin later of tomato jam is even better.

You know Rafi’s dumps are nuclear.

He’s been posting insufferable posts on Facebook (I haven’t unliked his page because it’s like watching a train wreck), and today he actually posted the “off-color limerick” and I could see how some might think it’s harmless.

When I was 12-13, back in the late 70s, I ruined a friendship with a neighbor boy by telling him that his favorite author Andre Norton was a woman. He had a screaming meltdown of epic proportions - how dare I, no woman could write science fiction! (The reason I knew was kind of sexist - I had a bunch of gothic
