I recently picked up On a Pale Horse again as an audio book, thinking it would be fun to listen to.

I detailed my experiences in game design school a while back, and it’s my experience that a minority of men are abusers, but a majority of men will dismiss the abuse as just poor widdle boys being misunderstood. Or like many of the men in this thread ask ‘what did you do to deserve it?’

I recognize that this post is about women photographing women, but this reminded me of that recent Buzzfeed article that featured a male photographer who has an Instagram page called “Redheads.” He claims to search for diversity among redheads by “traveling the world” but his stuff just screams “I’ve got a fetish for…

but does his unwillingness to memorize the entirety of his lines negate his ability to act?

Warning: This is going to be a long story. Attempted TL;DR at bottom.

I think when an artist is sexually attracted to the subject, it of course changes things. But I think the difference in how female artists view the female body is more different from how male artists view the female body than the difference between how straight women and gay men view the female body than how gay women…

Yup. But I just want verification that the person actually was fired. If they don;t give us a name, who knows what happened to them. For all I know, it was a “OK, George, that shit was funny, but don’t do it again, OK? Now, get back to work...”

Yep, like Blizzard’s former plan to use real names. They just could not get for a long time that many women would cease to communicate with the community. In many cases, it’s not worth the fallout, or the abuse to be openly female on the internet in some spaces.

While our family attempts to cope with our loss, we ask that at this time the community please refrain from protests and marches in Jordan’s and our family’s name, as we prepare for his funeral. We do not support nor do we condone any violence or threats made against the Balch Springs Police Department or any…

But can we talk about how the pitch deck markets this year as “Year 1: Water” like they’re on the journey of the Last Airbender?!?

I’ve been watching the videos on YouTube...they’re kind of mesmerizing and they’re all getting roasted for going in the first place.

You’re not the only one misreading it. But at least you’re not a shitbag politician trying to make a Fyre festival joke to seem relatable, only to make that mistake.

Not all republicans are racists.... but if someone is a racist, I am pretty sure I know who they voted for last November.

At first I thought this was going to be an article about podcast fans - that header graphic is right out of Welcome to Nightvale, who probably have a non-zero amount of fans who take things too far.

Jim Cooke, you genius. That illustration is the shit and you deserve more than you are being paid, whatever that amount is.

For example, the NRA supported the Mulford Act of 1967, which was enacted as a reaction to the Black Panthers carrying weapons at the state Capitol building.

It’s certainly what happened in California. Gun laws there were much more relaxed until the Black Panthers started (legally) carrying their guns openly. Then Ronald Reagan couldn’t sign gun control laws fast enough and the NRA started using that as a way to lobby for those gun laws.

Not to mention the potential for false-flag operations. Red Sox away games feel like they’re being played at Fenway half the time (I live in Seattle and love the atmosphere at Safeco when literally every displaced Bostonian in the entire Puget Sound region goes to the game), so what’s to stop a fan from dressing up in…

Good. The more gun owners there are, of every political stripe and ethnicity/gender, the less likely gun control will prevail in this country.

I think the opposite will occur. Once enough minorities are gun owners, they’ll implement more stringent regulations.
