This "shut up and listen" phase of liberalism has GOT to go.

I fully disagree with that. People who have been beaten down are not inherently less valid than the people doing the beating. Or do you think it's a good thing that mountains of misogynist shitheads have driven good women off of twitter with their harassment?

I'm sorry, but I see you engaging in the exact thinking that you're decrying in other people. Why is it okay when you do it, but not okay when others do it?

It doesn't sound helpful, no, but I do understand how it can happen. If the majority of your conversations get walked all over, eventually you're just going to assume that's how they will go. If you really want to build a dialogue with people, writing them off is not the answer right? Maybe showing a little compassion…

I see things like this, which seem reasonable, but hide the fact that you're asking people to stop being who they are because it's not politically expedient FOR YOU. I identify as a woman. I identify as gay. Like it or not those labels come with a specific set of challenges that humanity on the whole doesn't face. How…

I don't see how asking someone to listen is worse than not engaging them at all. If you actually want discourse.

What about those of us who want to own our identities? It's meaningful to me to be able to talk about myself in a way that defines me, not just general amorphous humanity.

Not all dildos are made for butt play.

Can I give a counterpoint to this? Because I've been in more than a few "conversations" where the party I was talking with was so convinced of their viewpoint that they weren't listening and consistently talked over me because to them it didn't matter what I was saying. I know I'm far from the only person to…

I would buy that from Etsy.

It sounds like an ugly situation, but it's not because you're ugly or broken, it's because the person doing this to you is.

Just as long as the women aren't talking, thinking or doing anything besides depending on a man, I'm sure he's happy. Oh, except if they're lesbians. Dude is insecure as fuck.

Awesome about the first part, neutral on the second part (sounds like a mutual decision, which is good, but also complicated) and oh holy shit on that last part. I would be severely freaked out if it were me, do stay safe.

We are fond of boxes, it doesn't really deter us.

I have gotten a lot of mileage out of "Grandpa, go home and drink!"

Yeah, and the later justification from I think Roiland about how Morty would actually have enjoyed it was almost enough for me to quit the show in disgust. I just have to forget that exists and happened and enjoy everything else about the show.

I have serious issues with the attempted jelly bean rape, but I still like the rest of the episode around it. I just… can't watch that scene.

Alright then, I can always get behind that.

I did that watching Independence Day 2; I was substantially less stoned than I was for Rogue One, I just couldn't accept the stupid shit I was watching, I felt like I was watching a writer somewhere scratch out two bad ideas and then give up and keep the third bad idea. It was like I was in the editing bay with them…
